Summary
Not long after she and Jamie return to Lallybroch from Paris, Claire gets a letter from her future self. It’s not so much a “good news/bad news” dichotomy as a “Jesus H. Roosevelt Christ” situation.
It turns out Claire’s the only one who can keep an eye on Frank and MI-6, become a surgeon, and raise a precocious daughter who is at least somewhat ready to meet her Da back in the eighteenth century when the time comes.
Because home is where the heart is, and Jamie is always both. And What Frank Knew is never as important as What Claire Decides.
Title is from Shakespeare, Sonnet 116.
A canon divergence from mid-Season 2 with a lot of romance, some espionage, some headache-inducing considerations of time travel, and a lot of Fraser Family Time once everyone’s reunited in 18th century Scotland, which happens in Chapter 4. Some book canon is in the mix where it suits me/adds character background, which I’ll flag routinely in the notes.

Summary
Title is from Shakespeare, Sonnet 116.
A Team Fraser interlude in which Claire and Jamie are adorable romantics and worrywart parents. Brianna learns about dreams and does some math with Marsali.
Song I listened to a lot while writing this even if I went with a different title: “Faster” by Matt Nathanson.
A show canon refresher that might help since it crops up here: when they are separated, Claire looks at birds and thinks of Jamie. I’ve preserved that here though the separation in this AU is shorter and very different.

Summary
Sorry if anyone gets this in your inbox twice, the front matter was being odd so I deleted and am reposting.
Title is from Shakespeare, Sonnet 116.
Claire and Jamie discover surviving your twentysomething daughter's romantic life is a bit of a group project. A story expanding on events recounted in Chapter 18 of Not Time's Fool, Part 1 in this series. Claire and Jamie banter and flirt their way through it, and Brianna insists she knows where home is. It all ends happily ever after. If you hate math, Bree's 22 when this story starts.
