Frank's Child Chapter 42 Home Found

She sits on stairs leading into Lallybroch, nursing three month old Lambert Brian. Below her Quinn, age three is being chased around by her daddy.

Yes, this was home. She sometimes thinks or dreams about her life before. But she knows, even if Frank hadn't went insane, she would have never been fully happy in her time. For, it wasn’t really her time. This was. Where Jamie was is where she belonged, with their children. She switches sides and her red haired son quickly latches on and starts to suckle like he is starving.

“Lamb, you sure have your daddy's appetite.” She coos to him, stroking his soft skin.

Jamie. She hadn't lost her overwhelming urge for him. Only the necessity of child birth and the time after, keeps them apart. She has been investigating different forms of conception control. As much as she adores her children and wouldn’t mind having a few more, she wants them spaced out. It would also help her good sister, as Jenny had given birth to twins, a few months before Lamb's birth.

Jamie comes up leaving Quinn to play with her cousins. “I will ne' grow tired of seeing you thus.” He softly says.

“You like seeing my breasts.” She teases.

“Aye but nae it is more then that. It is seeing you nuture them. Seeing them grow fat and healthy under your feedings.”

“God Jamie, just when I think I can't love you more, you say something like that.” Lamb, satiated, falls off his mam's breast. Claire offers him to his daddy so she can sort her clothes. He lifts him up to his shoulder and rubs his back.

“I love you more each day also. Seeing you with our bairns, watching you practice your healing arts, talking with Jenny about everything, rocking our nieces and nephews, all make me love you more. Then there is the time it is just us. Becoming one. Those are the times that I feel like I will explode with the joy of loving you. The times,” he lowers his voice so only she and Lamb can hear, “that I am so happy that time brought you to me.”

“I feel the same. There is no place I want to be outside here, with you and our family.” She slips her hand into his free one and they sit and watch their daughter play, Mrs. Crook hang laundry, the chickens and goats compete to make the most noise, from behind them, Jenny sings softly to Michael and Janet. Ian is seen in the far field with Murtagh. Their whole life surrounding them. Home found.

The End

Title: Home Found, Chapter 13

Fandom: Eureka

Pairing: Jack Carter/Nathan Stark

Summary: A moment of clarity at the time of his death leads Nathan to make some changes when he’s give a second chance and awakens on the day he first met Jack.

Tags/warnings: sex. Canon-typical violence. Fix-it. First time. Get-together. Time travel. Science shenanigans. Pod fic welcome

After his last misadventure, Nathan does remember not to reassign Fargo to the basement office. This means they’re not stuck fighting a doomsday mutually assured destruction missile launch, but Nathan would almost prefer that scenario. 

In the confusion of triggering Thatcher’s memory, Nathan had missed the warning signs of what was going on with Zoe—namely that she’d pulled the fire alarm to get out of taking an IQ test. 

“Am I doing something wrong?” Jack asks over dinner. They’re at Cafe Diem, and technically, Jack is on duty while Nathan is just having dinner since he’s childless for the night and has no politicians to schmooze with. 

“What do you mean?” Nathan fishes for more information.

Home Found, Chapter 12

okay, finally. Here it is.

Title: Home Found, Chapter 12

Fandom: Eureka tv

Pairing: Jack Carter/Nathan Stark

Summmary:

A moment of clarity at the time of his death leads Nathan to make some changes when he’s give a second chance and awakens on the day he first met Jack.

Tags/warnings: sex. Canon-typical violence.  Fix-it. First time.  Get-together.  Time travel. Science shenanigans. Pod fic welcome

Nathan should have remembered that Allison was the reason Jack ended up entertaining Carl’s neurosis and escorting him to Global—last time he’d rolled his eyes at Jack’s explanation of providing a calming presence to Carlson prior to the demonstration. After Nathan left the bunker, Jack all but dove onto the walking, talking panic attack that was Carl as it made him too busy for Allison to get her hands on.

Professionally speaking, of course. 

When Jack walks in behind Carl to his lab, Nathan’s blood goes cold. 

“Stop,” he says before he can stop himself, almost barking the command and internally wincing at how Jack’s spine straightens, and his expression goes blank. “Jack, what are you doing here?”

“Assisting. Carl has a really important demonstration today.”

“No.”

“What do you mean, no?”  

The good thing is that everyone is now looking at them like Nathan’s grown a second head instead of proceeding further into the lab set up to test Carlson’s bacteria. The bad thing is that Nathan’s objection hasn’t stopped Jack from entering the lab as he’s two steps into the lab that’s two hundred feet directly above the Artifact’s containment chamber.  

Nathan has to get Jack out of there. He swears he can feel the Artifact emit some sort of vibration, and his skin is crawling.

Starting to get the muse back to work.

Nathan has a problem. 

The problem’s name is Carl Carlson, and his scheduled project demonstration is this coming Tuesday. The man, at the best of times, is a bit much to deal with, and Nathan doesn’t want to put up with Carlson’s particular brand of pain in the ass more than he has to. 

Last time, Jack had been injured, which makes Nathan want to growl and pace like a cornered wolf…

Home Found, Chapter 9

okay, maybe we are going to do the whole first season. Idk. The muse is in the driver’s seat.

Nathan settles into a regular daily routine at GD as if he never left it, but with one exception other than the nights when he has Kevin. He finds himself heading toward Cafe Diem after work instead of cooking for himself on nights he knows Jack is on call. More often than not, Jack wanders through and steals the seat across from Nathan. Topics of conversation vary, but they’re becoming better-acquainted bit by bit, and they haven’t resorted to name-calling even once.

Everything is going well.  

Almost too well.

fuck it friday

Tagge by @rosieposiepuddingnpie for a fuck it friday. Tagging @outtoshatter @tkwritesdumbassassins @monsterrae1 @missanniewhimsy @quietborderline @whimsyswastry with no pressure.

Likely a discard from Home Found, my Eureka fix-it fic.

Warnings: first draft.

Instead, he holds out an olive branch. “Sheriff—Carter.  Would you like to get a coffee?”

Jack freezes, his face moving through several expressions before becoming blank. “Coffee?”

“Yeah.  We’re going to have to work together a lot and I’d rather we have a collegial relationship since we have the same goals.”  Inwardly, he’s wincing terribly at his word choices but with Allison watching him like a hawk he doesn’t want to give up his motives too quickly. 

“Collegial?”

“I mean, I’d take friendship but collegial at least,” Nathan retries. He has to start changing things somewhere and it’s physically painful to be antagonistic to Jack now. 

Jack processes for a moment then slowly nods.  “I could do coffee. Cafe Diem?”

“They have the best coffee in town.  What time are you done today?”

Jack’s jaw twitches when Nathan suggests an after work drink.  “You’re not one of those types that eliminates caffeine after lunch?”

“I oversee a bunch of scientists that are ambitious and who I have to remind constantly of safety protocols and deadlines.  I’m pretty sure my bloodstream is more than half coffee at any given moment,” Nathan quips, letting the smile he’s been biting back start to show even as he feels his cheeks heat a bit at the look Jack’s sending him that isn’t pure professional appraisal anymore.
