Would it make you feel any better if I told you I had to edit out some even more devastating bits? πŸ˜…πŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œ

I had to cut a few extra painful details to make the word count but let me know if you want me to text you them. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

No goss and the home many of their children were born in burned to the ground. 😭😭😭

Always! πŸ’œI need more of both of them (and less of some others).

Feeling great after reading this, thanks! (That closing sentence is chef’s kiss perfect)

Lacking
7x03

β€œA letter arrived from maman and papa today, ma chΓ©rie,” Fergus told her with a smile as they all sat down to dinner. 

As always, she and Fergus would read this one in bed that night, reveling in whatever gossip was swirling around the Ridge that Ma and Da managed to squeeze in their missives in between their pleas for them to come home for a visit.

β€œNos chΓ©ris,” the letter began in Da’s familiar, angular scrawl. By the end of the letter, they were curled into one another, lacking the words to express their devastation at losing another home.

They might not be on screen in 7x03 (or all of season 7 😭) but that doesn’t mean Marsali and Fergus don’t deserve some space in my current drabble series! πŸ’œ

It’s so emotional. And it sort of killed me not to write a Jamie or a Claire pov for this episode but I’ll just have to come back to do it eventually πŸ’œ

Justice for Claire and Fergus’s relationship! I can never get enough of it. And also can never get enough of sibling bonding, especially with Bree and Fergus who got to witness their parents at different times and in different ways. πŸ’œ

Also, ICYMI, for my season 7 drabbles, I am writing a new character pov per episode, no repeats.

Heartbeat
7x02

If her eyes had left Mandy’s face for any time greater than a blink, Brianna would be astonished. There was nothing, save Mandy’s angelic face, that would give her the resolve she needed to uproot her family, to leave her parents. She found herself thinking of her mama, of the sacrifice she made to make sure Brianna was born safely, and how, after finally seeing her and Da together, she understood the enormity of mama’s decision. But she hadn’t appreciated the fervent tenacity of a mother protecting her child, and how nothing else mattered but ensuring her daughter’s every heartbeat.

Life lately has meant I’ve been writing my drabbles on Tuesday nights/Wednesday mornings, instead of writing a bunch at one time & then not having to worry about it. And then today was a true dumpster fire at work so I found myself writing today’s drabble while walking Finn in the 430pm darkness. πŸ˜…πŸ˜¬

Ooh yes. He’s such stubborn, prideful (young) man but no so much so that he can just say no to whatever those sneaking feelings are telling him. πŸ₯°πŸ’œ

Breathing
7x01

The difference between his anger and worry was indiscernible, save for the most subtle of tells, at least to start. Which was why Ian was not concerned, when his uncle’s first response to every question was a litany of rage-filled curse words, incoherent and vicious. He had seen his uncle react in the same way many times. And when his uncle later collapsed into a heap, curling into himself, anguish lining his face, Ian was similarly unsurprised. Only Auntie Claire’s absence could elicit such extreme emotions, only Auntie Claire’s return could bring his uncle back to himself; whole and breathing.

It’s time for my season 7 POV drabbles and I am going to attempt to do something slightly different for this season. Every drabble will have a different POV, no repeats. Hopefully. πŸ˜… For 7x01, we have an Ian POV.
