Torchwood/Downton Abbey crossover AU
Lord Harkness is the sole caretaker of Downton Abbey after his wife died and his grandson was killed in the treacherous 456 campaign. With no heir besides his daughter Alice, Jack fears for the future of Downton even as the war winds to a close. He finds a unique source of solace, however, in his new valet Ianto Jones who seems to have an uncanny ability to calm his nerves even when they are the most frayed. The young valet is shrouded in mystery though, and Lord Harkness worries he may be hiding more from him than just feelings.
Ianto Jones is secretly enamored with his new employer but after the recent death of his fiancee Lisa, Ianto is both emotionally and financially bankrupt. He’s determined to save up enough money in order to sail to America where he hopes to start a new life away from debt collectors and bad memories. But the more time he spends with the charismatic Lord Harkness the more his determination wavers and when the Lord of Downton asks Ianto to dance at the Servants Ball he starts to regret that he can’t stay.
