Beloved Highlander
Tumblr media
They look to me like they’re having a conversation.
“Yes, it is a bit chilly up here.  That wind’s coming straight out of Norway!” “Actually, do you think I could get my skirt back down? I know it’s less sexy, but - erm - bits of me are getting cold.”
Also, do you think he’ll take his sword off before they make love or is it going to be some kind of prop?
Nice that the hills are entirely crenelated, but a shame that the rest of Scotland appears to be on fire.
Gregor Grant returns to his beloved Highland home Glen Dhu only to find his father has lost the family estate. It now belongs to the enchanting Lady Mackintosh. Gregor leaves, vowing not to return, but years later, Lady Mackintosh finds herself in need of help. Gregor is the only person who can help her, how can she enlist his help?
"Gregor Grant! Where is the key to the shed? I CAN'T GET INTO THE SHED!"

13 + sebson? (if you’re feeling it ☺️)
It's finally done!!! Sorry for taking forever, I really hope you enjoy it! 💚
sebson + "I don't feel so good" - send me a prompt!
“I don’t feel so good…” Just hearing Jenson say that painfully short sentence was enough for Sebastian to spring into action and (gently) load his idiot of a husband into the car. But seeing his face contorted in pain with his left hand clutched against his temple, the morning sunlight glinting off his gold wedding band, was the reason why Sebastian’s knuckles were white as he gripped the steering wheel of their rental car.
They had been out on their mountain bikes yesterday on a forest trail that had stunning views of Loch Ness. Jenson hadn’t been looking where he was going and hit a stone, came off the bike, and hit his head when he landed on the ground. He’d said he was fine and that Seb didn’t need to make a fuss – not when they were on holiday.
“You can say it if it would make you feel better.” Jenson said meekly from the front passenger seat.
“You should have let me take you to the hospital yesterday!” Seb forced through gritted teeth. According to the last signpost they were still 10 miles away from Inverness. “But it doesn’t make me feel better.” He said with a long sigh, and finally reduced his grip on the steering wheel.
They’d properly pushed the boat out, what with the week away being for their first wedding anniversary. They booked a cabin on the Caledonian sleeper train up from London, and were staying at a luxury cabin in a campsite surrounded by fir trees with a small on-site farm shop to save them having to travel into Inverness for anything and everything.
Like what Sebastian was doing now.
With it being early September, the deciduous trees that were scattered around the hospital grounds still had all their leaves and had barely started to change colour. Not that Seb cared as he walked with his arm locked around Jenson’s waist into A&E.
It must have been their lucky day, as half an hour after Sebastian rapidly reeled off Jenson’s symptoms to the receptionist on duty a nurse directed them to an examination room.
“I had my helmet on, I’m probably just concussed Seb, will you…” Jenson had sat himself on the end of the bed and had stayed put ever since they’d been told someone would be along shortly. “…please stop pacing and just hold my hand?”
It was the crack in Jenson’s voice that caused Seb to finally stop moving at a hundred miles an hour and look at the man he loved. Jenson’s sandy blond hair was sticking up at odd angles since he had barely been out of bed for ten minutes before he said he felt unwell, and in his rush to get dressed he’d flung on his favourite cable knit forest green cardigan inside out. But it was the slightly wounded look in his steel blue eyes that pulled Sebastian out of his downward spiral and over to Jenson. Seb kissed his husband’s temple and hugged Jenson around the shoulders before burying his nose deep in his hair. Seb could still smell the traces of the apple shampoo Jenson had used when he’d showered the night before.
“I love you so much.” Seb said only loud enough for Jenson to hear.
“I love you too.” Jenson’s voice was muffled from his face being pressed against Seb’s flannel shirt, but the warmth was there, as it always was.
Ironically, Jenson falling off his bike was also how they’d met. They had been on separate holidays in Switzerland, Jenson to see the world and Sebastian to try and heal a broken heart. At least then Jenson hadn’t been completely thrown from his bike and more slowly fell off thanks to a puncture. Seb had unknowingly been a kilometre or so behind him and he’d stopped to offer help. They’d ended up having dinner that night and Sebastian had been in love with Jenson ever since.
A nurse arrived ten minutes later and shined a light into Jenson’s eyes while asking him a plethora of questions. His full name, which the reply included a small joke about how Jenson had enough middle names for three people (they’d taken each other’s last name as an additional middle name after they got married since no iteration of double barrelling their surnames worked). What they’d done yesterday before and after Jenson hit his head (lunch at Fort Augustus before, next to the canal locks, and after they’d had a quiet night in which mainly involved Sebastian fretting constantly).
“We got married in Heppenheim, that’s my husband’s hometown in Germany. The trees changed colour a little earlier than what they normally do, it was so beautiful – all gold and orange everywhere.” Jenson explained with a wistful sigh after being asked when his and Seb’s wedding anniversary was. And when the nurse asked for their home address Jenson went into great detail about how he and Seb had settled on living in the Oxfordshire countryside to accommodate Jenson’s job as a tailor and Seb who worked at a green energy company.
“Jense has always been chatty.” Seb said with a wry smile. “He must be better than I thought.”
Jenson scoffed. “My husband could talk the hind legs of multiple donkeys if he wanted to.”
The nurse shook her head with a small smile, and said that while Jenson did have concussion she couldn’t see any major cause for concern. He was discharged with the recommendation that he was to come straight back if his symptoms got worse, and a metaphorical pat on the back for remembering to wear his helmet.
“I should probably buy you lunch for all the fuss I’ve caused.” Jenson said with a small sigh as he and Seb walked hand in hand through the hospital car park.
“Yes I think you should.” Seb gave Jenson’s hand a small squeeze, no that he’d calmed down he was finally starting to feel hungry. “Where should we go?”
Jenson stopped walking and took in a long breath of the cool morning air. There wasn’t much of a view besides the trees surrounding the hospital, but the sky was clear. It had the looks of becoming a beautiful day.
“I have absolutely no idea.” Jenson looked down at his and Seb’s intertwined hands and briefly smiled before frowning. “My cardigan’s inside out. Why didn’t you say something?”
“Ack.” Seb bit down on his bottom lip and glanced down at his boots while Jenson put his cardigan on the right way round. “I was too worried about your head.”
“Well, my head’s fine Seb. Or it will be.” Jenson leaned down to kiss Sebastian’s temple right as his stomach let out a loud grumble. “My digestive system on the other hand.”
Seb finally felt the remaining tension leave his shoulders as he let out a loud laugh and pulled his car keys out from his pocket.
“I’ll park somewhere in town and we can walk around, see if there’s anywhere we like the look of.”
“That sounds perfect.” Jenson said with a lazy grin. “I love you Sebastian Vettel.”
Seb waited until they were both sat in the car before reached out for Jenson’s hand which he squeezed as tightly as he could. All he could think about was the moment almost two months to the day after they’d first met, when Jenson had flown out to Frankfurt just to tell Seb that he was falling for him, and that he didn’t want to spent the rest of his life with anyone else.
“I love you too Jenson Button.”

Sura Greystone, my beloved Warrior of Light.

I used to be semi-active on the bird site, but the constant cycle of negativity is draining me, so I'm going to give Tumblr a try.
I hope you love my darling WoL as much as I do :)

As I am writing this, I’m in my beloved Scotland.. Only two days left before I have to go back to the hectics and responsibilities of every day’s life.
For now I will leave you with this wonderful image of a Highlander Cow that I took while in the small town of Applecross. Situated on one of Scotlands mesmerizing peninsulas.
I will miss the peace and embrace of this country when I’m back on the mainland, but mark my words, I’ll be back! 😁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

“I was walking down Broadway with my friend from China. Everyone kept waving at me, and saying: ‘Hi John, Hi John.’ And my friend said: ‘Wow. Everyone knows you!’ I said: ‘C’mon. That’s an exaggeration.’ Right then the door to the Imperial Theatre opened up, and it was an actor friend. He gave me the biggest hug. I said: ‘OK, maybe it’s not an exaggeration.’ Everyone does know me. I’ve been dancing for almost seventy years. It didn’t run in my family. My father was a subway motorman. But when I was sixteen I signed up for lessons with a famous Russian ballet dancer. She was a little lady; told me that I danced like a lobster. Not exactly encouraging, but when I came down the stairs after my first lesson, Eartha Kitt was waiting in the lobby. Not that she was waiting for me; it was for someone else. But I saw it as a sign. I thought: ‘I’m on my way.’ A few months later I made my debut dancing to bagpipes at the Scottish Highland Festival. Then after that I got a gig at the Wine and Cheese Festival. And I never stopped. I wasn’t good enough to do it full time. I had to work as a Spanish teacher for thirty-three years. I was competent; my kids did well on the tests. But I wouldn’t say I was beloved. And when your name is Mr. Bate, the kids are going to call you Masturbate. It’s unavoidable. But each day when that 2:42 bell rang after eighth period; I got on a train and headed to my second life. I’ve danced it all. I was a flamenco dancer. I learned Afro-Haitian, Afro-Cuban, Afro-Brazilian. I danced in the Sambadrome during Carnival. I danced with an Appalachian clogging company. I’ve danced in every major theater on Broadway. My specialty was screwing up the choreography. I’ve actually heard audience members say: ‘Oh no, not him again.’ But I always figured out a way to work. I’ve played every kind of character role. I’ve played Von Rothbart, the evil magician. I’ve played Nutcracker. But the role I loved best was Handsome Haldor. He was a total flop. But in his mind,  he was the most magnificent man in the entire kingdom.”
