    I do. [She curls a piece of Bree's hair around her index finger.] He's scared, Jamie. He'd never admit it outright, I don't think, but he is. He doesn't want to... be too much, or overwhelm you. If he doesn't need to worry about that, you should tell him.

    He'll appreciate it.

    [Another touch to her hair, and then Claire glances at the door.]

    He's probably taking his time so we can talk. Do you want to go and fetch him?

    [Maybe it should be Bree. If Claire can't relax enough to let her go downstairs in a small building on her own, she'll never be able to at all.]

    [James Fraser isn't an awkward man, but he's certainly looking a little awkward as he stands around with a tray of food from the cook from the kitchen. He could have gone upstairs a while ago, bring the plates of meat and fruit and cheese and bread, but he can't imagine what sort of conversation they're having up there. God forbid he intrude on the two women.

    So, he decides to wait a bit, giving a polite nod to other patrons.

    He's about to nod to a young lady when he realizes it's Bree and he practically jumps.]


    Brianna. Something the matter?

    [Oh, busted. Jamie manages to look embarrassed--that obvious, was he?]

    Ye go right in for the kill, just like another woman I ken. [Her mother. It's been strange but wonderful seeing Claire being a mother, as brief as the interactions have been. He always knew she'd be a good one.]

    The last twenty years haven't been easy for me, Brianna. [An admission, though he wonders how much she knows, or how much Claire could know.] Sometimes I dinna have the words for the times that have passed, but I would like to share them with ye--and ye mother. Eventually.

    Lass, are ye out to make a man sob?

    [Mentions of Frank is enough to knock him down, but when Bree continues--it hits something deep within him. He's never looked at anyone the way he looks at Claire, and God, he hopes she realizes it. It's only ever been her. Before Jamie can say as much, he has to hurry after Bree, careful not to drop the food. But before they go in--]

    She told me he passed, Frank. I'm sorry for it.

    [She lost the father she knew. He knows that pain well.]

    [He loved Claire more than life, and he still made her go because Brianna, and keeping them both safe, was more important. To see that they're well and that Brianna's had a good upbringing? Well, it's most certainly worth every lonely night and dark moment in which he didn't want to take another breath because he was sure his heart would shatter.]

    I won't give ye up again. As long as ye want me, Brianna, I'm here.

    [Balancing the tray in one hand, he lifts an arm to put around her shoulders and draw her near.]

    I swear it on my life.

    drags Claire back in

    [personal profile] backlashing 2018-01-12 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
    [For a man in his 40s, he does manage to look like a little boy about to be scolded as he steps into the room. Thanks for tossing him under the carriage, Bree.]

    I just, ah, thought ye might need a moment or two to talk.

    [He sets the tray down on the table in the room and pulls out a chair, nodding over to Bree. For her.]

    Meat's still warm.

    [Claire pauses mid-pace when the two redheads make their return. So, just as she thought. There's a clear look of relief when they're back, and that's really all that matters.]

    It's all right. [Jamie's in her good graces for the foreseeable future. As far as she can say, at least.]

    While we eat, we should probably figure out how tonight is going to work.

    [He had been leading her to where he'd been staying, but there's three of them, not just two. This room is small--Jamie alone could barely fit on the bed.]

    [personal profile] backlashing 2018-01-12 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
    [Clever girl. Once he's seated and he pushes in her chair, and Claire sits herself, he finally joins them. He gives Claire a pleased smile--they already fumbled over how to introduce her to others when he was handling business earlier.]

    Aye, you're right. Claire Malcolm and Brianna Malcolm, for now. [He reaches for one of the rolls he was given from the kitchen.] I havena gone by the name Fraser in a verra long time. The English don't much like me, ye ken. [A smile now for Bree.] Save for ye mother. Never could figure that one out.
    nineteenfortyfive: (COSTUME)

    [personal profile] nineteenfortyfive 2018-01-12 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
    I'm glad you still have your sense of humor.

    [And so does Claire, her eyes rolling before she reaches for some food for her plate as well.]

    We could rent a bigger room here, maybe? [She's going back to that, oblivious to how Jamie's gaze shifts from her to the food. He's not at ease.] Unless someone takes the floor. I'm afraid we don't have too much coin with us.

    [Transportation, Food, board, and new clothes cost a lot.]
    backlashing: (9)

    [personal profile] backlashing 2018-01-12 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
    The floor? Ach, no, ye won't be sleeping on the floor. [Preposterous. He does have a thought to take them to the brothel, but some flicker of foresight pulls the reins on that idea. Do you really want to bring your wife and daughter to a whorehouse, Fraser? No.]

    I can see if they've got a bigger room with more beds after we finish up. I'm no' going anywhere, Brianna. I promised.

    [He briefly puts a hand on her arm before going back to his plate.]
    nineteenfortyfive: (THINK)

    [personal profile] nineteenfortyfive 2018-01-12 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
    [He promised, did he? What did they talk about when Bree went to fetch him?]

    And you shouldn't be sleeping on the floor, either, before you can suggest it. [Not at his age.] I'm sure they have another bed. [She's not betting on sharing one with Jamie any time soon. It's too much, especially with Bree with them.]

    If not... we'll figure something out.

    [Maybe they just won't sleep.]
    backlashing: (10)

    [personal profile] backlashing 2018-01-12 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
    [The thought of being with Claire isn't far from Jamie's mind, but in the face of having his daughter near, he can happily ignore it.]

    Aye.

    [A bite of food, and he makes a thoughtful noise.]

    I'll have to get someone to watch the shop here, but we can see about visiting Lallybroch.

    [... he should probably bring young Ian home before his father comes looking for him.]
    nineteenfortyfive: (OBVIOUS)

    [personal profile] nineteenfortyfive 2018-01-12 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
    I was telling Bree a little about sleeping out under the stars, like we used to. I also told her when we first met.

    [She covers up her smile by taking a drink. There you go, redheads. Have at it.]

    It was her request.
