Title:
I knew you in this darkWordcount: 4,758
Rating: R
Characters/Pairing(s): Thomas Barrow, Edward Courtaney, Sybil Crawley, Barrow/Courtaney.
Warning(s): Contains Thomas Barrow's own brand of redistributive justice. Also, strongly unprofessional conduct. And while we're at it, minor crimes, depression and suicide.
Notes: The title is a line from Wilfred Owen’s WWI poem, “Strange Meeting”.
Disclaimer: Not mine. If it was, Thomas would've have gotten laid.
Summary: Courtaney bowed his head in mock-shame. “I must beg you to make me your exception.”
Thomas did not want to say, though it is true: you already are.
