    Summary

    "It wasn't that Benny was exceptionally big, it was that Jimmy was pathetically small.
    As all the boys were cheering around him, Jimmy felt his eyes prickle and his throat tighten. He took a little while to properly understand the emotion that was making him about to choke and that was the most debilitating bit of shame he had ever suffered in his young life."

     

    A Coming of Age story centered around Jimmy Kent's feelings of inadequacy with his own manhood, Thomas Barrow's going through life one desillusion after another and, eventually, some awkward romancing and healing...

    Summary

    It happens when one of the policemen pulls Thomas away from Chris. His fingers clamp around his wrist, right over the scar. Thomas sees the man’s eyes widen, sees realization dawning on him in the matter of a split second, and he looks down, twisting Thomas’ arm sharply to reveal the undeniable evidence etched into his skin.

    "Is nothing sacred to you people?"

     

    Or: Thomas decided to roll up his sleeves at Turton's. It makes an already bad night take a turn for the worse.

    Summary

    Every now and then, Sybbie likes to take advantage of the fact that George is two years her junior, and thus greatly receptive to all sorts of made up tales and fantasies not suitable for a boy his age. This time around though, she should have checked the verisimilitude of the story before laying it on her gullible cousin. That way, Mr. Barrow probably wouldn't have gotten cursed.

    Or: I took one (1) little thing from Disney’s Frozen and ran with it as quickly as I could back to Downton Abbey.

    Summary

    Mr. Barrow stares at him, apparently uncomprehending, for a long, long moment. Then he takes a sharp breath in. “Exactly how hard did you hit your head, Jimmy?” he asks slowly, and his face has gone past worry and into deep fear. “Do you not know where we are?”
