To my bewilderment and alarm, the woman placed the infant in a hollow portion of the tree that offered minimal shelter from the chilly night air, and although I couldn’t see her expression, the strangled sob that escaped her made my heart clench. I was even more astonished when she retreated quickly, leaving her child alone.
I opened my mouth to object, but Jamie pressed a finger to my lips and shook his head, gesturing toward the woman as though imploring me to wait until she was well out of earshot. Agitated, I pushed his hand away and rose to my feet, intent on retrieving the child, but he shadowed the movement and held me in place.
“Nay, Sassenach,” he whispered urgently. “She’ll not ha’ gone far, and ye dinna want to be seen interfering in such a thing.”
“Interfering in what?” I hissed. “Child abandonment?”
“Nay. ‘Tis a changeling. She only wants her bairn back.”
I stopped trying to wriggle out of his hold and frowned up at him, a chill trickling down my spine.
“Changeling…”
“Aye. Folk say when the faeries steal a human child away, they leave one of their own in its place. It doesna thrive and grow as it should, so they leave the changeling in a place like this in hopes their stolen child will be returned.”
I sighed and looked back at the tree, casting a silent spell to detect human presence. The charm didn’t reach far enough to register the young woman, but it should have given some indication of life near the large tree. But it didn’t. I sank slowly back to the ground, my eyes still fixed on the hollow of the tree and the bundle of blankets I now knew did not conceal a child at all.
“That’s not… what this is. Not really.”

Don't get me wrong... I LOVE pizza, but we already had Droughtlander with Susan Sarandon... And Susan silencing Caitríona and Sam with "the sex S & C..." (Subtle) ... It was hilarious! 🤭😂

(Pizza seems safer for S & C 😜🤣)

The sun was setting. The last rays of light shone through a blue glass flagon that stood on the table, streaking the wall with a shaft of brilliant lapis. I felt as fragile and as brilliant as the glass, as though I would shatter with a touch, and fall in glittering fragments to the floor. If I had meant to spare either Jamie's emotions or my own, it seemed I was very much too late.I couldn't speak, but held out my right hand to him, fingers trembling. The ring slipped cool and bright over my knuckle and rested snug at the base of my finger—a good fit. Jamie held my hand a moment, looking at it, then suddenly pressed my knuckles hard against his mouth. He raised his head, and I saw his face for an instant, fierce and urgent, before he pulled me roughly onto his lap.He held me hard against him then, without speaking, and I could feel the pulsebeat in his throat, hammering like my own. His hands went to my bare shoulders, and he held me slightly away, so that I was looking upward into his face. His hands were large and very warm, and I felt slightly dizzy.
"I want ye, Claire," he said, sounding choked. He paused a moment, as though unsure what to say next. "I want ye so much—I can scarcely breathe. Will—" He swallowed, then cleared his throat. "Will ye have me?"By now I had found my voice. It squeaked and wobbled, but it worked."Yes," I said. "Yes, I'll have you.""I think…" he began, then stopped. He fumbled loose the buckle of his kilt, but then looked up at me, bunching his hands at his sides. He spoke with difficulty, controlling something so powerful that his hands shook with the effort. "I'll not… I can't… Claire, I canna be gentle about it."I had time only to nod once, in acknowledgment or permission,before he bore me back before him, his weight pinning me to the bed.He did not pause to undress further. I could smell the road dust in his shirt, and taste the sun and sweat of travel on his skin. He held me, arms outstretched, wrists pinioned. One hand brushed the wall, and I felt the tiny scrape of one wedding ring chiming against the stone. One ring for each hand, one silver, one gold. And the thin metal suddenly heavy as the bonds of matrimony, as though the rings were tiny shackles, fastening me spread-eagled to the bed, stretched forever between two poles, held in bondage like Prometheus on his lonely rock, divided love the vulture that tore at my heart.

For pete's sake, we have to wait until november until the second part of season 7?! They can't blame covid or the strike. Both parts were filmed before the strike happened and we got a full trailer for 7b in august, and it's also a UK production, the strike was a Hollywood thing. Every other show who was actually affected by the strike is up and running. They were delayed by a couple of months, NOT ALMOST A YEAR AND A HALF. This is bs. I don't even know with this show anymore. I'm a book reader so i'll still be on track with the story and the characters that i love so much if i choose to stop watching because this is really throwing me off.

Just getting around to watching season 7 of Outlander, and OH MY WORD WHO ALLOWED A GHOST TO SING THE MAIN TITLE.
It's not even a cool ghost.
I didn't like the season 6 theme either, with the dead-sounding man, but THIS IS SO MUCH WORSE.
It's INFINITELY WORSE.
whyyyy

“Was it how ye thought it would be?” he asked quietly, and Claire returned his lazy smile.
“It was better. Intense and… consuming.”
“Aye. But I didna ken if that was because of the magic or if everyone felt that way.”
“I don’t know.” She hummed thoughtfully. “The few times I heard my schoolmates discussing it, their accounts never sounded this… profound.”
“I was afraid it would hurt you,” he admitted, watching her expression carefully.
“If it did, it passed so quickly I scarcely noticed.”
Jamie relaxed and resumed his study of her body for a minute or two before another question crossed his mind.
“Is it normal to do it face to face like that? I grew up on a farm, so I always just assumed…”
“Um… People can do it that way too. And a number of other ways, from what I’ve heard,” she replied, clearly struggling not to laugh.
“Oh, aye?” He eyed her with interest and leaned in to taste the skin just beneath her ear. “Perhaps we’ll try a few… And maybe invent some new ones.”

Trivia for this photo:
Sam said in a recent NYCC event, that when they did that photoshoot, it was Caitriona's birthday, 9 yrs ago. 💡
