Something More, for You and I - Part 1

Summary: Reginald "Rex" Fettson is the Land Agent for Shillshire Castle in England, the home of Lady Amelia Ahsoka Tano, his childhood sweetheart. When war breaks out across Europe in 1914, Rex is swiftly sent to the frontlines and in his absence Ahsoka is hurriedly engaged to a member of fine society at her father's behest: a Member of Parliament with great connections and even greater wealth.

When Rex is on leave from the frontlines, the two meet again, by chance, or perhaps by fate. Will they rekindle their long, lost love despite the limitations of their rank and station? Or will they obey the expectations of their positions, and allow life's one true love to pass them by?

TLDR: A Rexsoka AU set during WW1, inspired by Downton Abbey

For Rexsoka Monthly August Prompt: AU August

Pairing: Rexsoka

Rating: M

Chapter Word Count: ~1,200

Welcome to my Rexsoka AU: inspired by Downton Abbey and a recent trip I took to England. After touring all the castles and the English countryside, I couldn't help the flood of ideas I had for early 1910s Rexsoka <3 Some inspiration has been taken from Downton Abbey (which is one of my favorite shows of all time, if you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it), and from the history of similar estates and wealthy families of that time, but I tried to give it my own spin.

Hope everyone enjoys! If anyone wants to chat about this AU together shoot me a message. Always down to chat about fun things like this <3

“17.6 The last will writen by hand by Richtofen

He didn’t make no mention about his private life or family

“12.2. Pilots from Jasta 11 getting ready for take off at 21 april of 1918. From left to right: Wolfram, Scholtz, Karjus, Wolff, Lübbert, Richtofen, Löwenhardt, Steinhauser and Weiss. After a lots of deaths being produced that could have been avoided with the use of the Parachute, the controls of both sides decided to amply it’s use since 1918. In this photo we can check that Wolff and Steinhauser were wearing their parachute harnesses”

Well shit, official information says that manfred was wearing his parachute on his last flight (also he was wearing pajamas under his uniform, lol)

Hey! I saw a ww1 book, and you were the first thing that came to my mind.

I SPENT A LONG TIME DIGITIZING THIS, LIKE 22 HOURS AND 13 MINUTES

Here is a ww1 soldier. By the uniform and helmet, he is American.

I found the Baron.

While at an airshow (the most fun and autistic event I've ever been to) I stumbled upon a bear dressed in pilots clothes, specifically a bomber jacket, goggles and scarf. Like the outfits of WW1 era pilots. After some timeline checking I present to you the story of the Baron and Baroness.

The baroness has been a suffragette for many years now, while it has been hard work she feels they are close. The Baron fears he might have to take up arms in the great war, while out one day he watches the suffragettes protests. One woman full of determination catches his eye, he admires her courage and spirit, wishing he too could be like that. But as she walks past him, he just watches. The Baron believes he will never see this powerful lady again. As chance would have it they meet once more, a smitten Baron tries his best to woo the Baroness. While his natural wit fails him, his charming attitude and sincerity has the baroness fall in love with him all the same. The war looming it the background of their happy ending. the Baron deems it his responsibility to fight for Britain. Tearful goodbye are shared; the Baron reassures his beloved that, if it weren't for her, he would not have the bravery to fight at all. Before he flies off in to battle the baroness give him a locket with a picture of her. "Keep it close," she says, "it will keep you safe." The baron places it in the pocket closest to his heart. "I win the war for Britain, you win the war for women." They part, and the story ends. We are left wondering; will the allies win the great war? Will the suffragettes procure their rights? And what you are wondering, will they ever see eachother again?

I saw a doll at the thrift store the other day, it was a light brown bear dressed in fancy dress, it was a beautiful maroon with lace. She had a hat on as well. A lovely sufferagette, standing alone atop a dusty wooden shelf. She reminded me of the baroness. Noble, breath taking, yet alone.
