    Summary

    This story is written by myself and Tinker001. It is loosely based on canon and explores a possibility that could have occurred if the characters were younger and circumstances slightly different. As my co-writer reminded me, Diana Gabaldon admitted to not being good at keeping track of the ages of characters, so we’ve decided it’s not too remiss of us to adjust their ages to fit the narrative of our story.

    For the sake of the story we want to tell, Claire is 49, Jamie 44 and John 36.

    We have adjusted the time when Jamie returned to Scotland to shortly after Lord John’s visit to Fraser’s Ridge with young William. His reasons for visiting his homeland are therefore different.

    Do read the tags carefully.

    Summary

    May 1744

     

    He wriggles his toes, feeling his environment. He quickly realises how much his surroundings are constricted, his legs are tightly bound and he is being cradled in someone’s arms. He opens his eyes and sees a woman leaning over him and realises she must be the one holding them. She’s humming softly with a warm and happy smile. He can see that her skin is clammy and there are bruises under her eyes, the eyes that are amber, golden-brown as well as smoky topaz, but that doesn’t dim her smile as she gazes upon the person in her arms. She’s white and her brown hair surrounds her face in messy curls.

    ——

    What if Claire and Jamie’s first baby survived and what if it had been a boy. How will the story change?

    Summary

    Thought I put a timeline here as my timeline is a mix of my own stuff and the show/books. This will be getting updated as I go along.

    This is also for our own sanity to look back at.

    Advice is not to read if not up to date with current story as spoilers.

    Been split into two chapters now as well.

    Summary

    "She was working that barrel churn with great vigor in the shade of the big house. The laces of her bodice were undone, so that her breasts wobbled to and fro, and the cloth clung to her with the sweat of her work."

    Summary

    “I shouldn’t have asked,” she said softly as she towelled off his hair, her voice carrying only so far as the distance between them. “I’m sorry.”

    He didn’t pretend to not know what she was talking about. He could plead ignorance, he knew, and she would let him. She was kind like that, his Marsali. But she was smart, too, so much so that it would all be a pretence, a charade, and he respected her far too much to play that game. He shook his head. 

    “Do not apologise,” his voice was clearer than when he had first awoken but a thickness remained and he cleared his throat. “You have every right to ask. You are my wife,” he added with a small smile. It dropped from his face almost instantly, too heavy for him to hold. He licked his lips instead. “I… I had forgotten."

    - OR -

    Decades later, Fergus Fraser still bears the mark of Black Jack Randall and Marsali's innocent questions bring forth repressed memories, distressing nightmares and a long overdue conversation.

    A book!canon compliant one-shot set at Fraser’s Ridge.

    Summary

    This is a collection of tales about characters that live on Fraser's Ridge in North Carolina. Most stories are set after or during the book 'Drums of Autumn' by Diana Gabaldon. Missing moments I thought would fit in nicely, mostly a look into the domestic simple days of our favorite characters, it's the little things isn't it?

    Each chapter is essentially a one-shot.
