RICHARD RANKIN as Roger Wakefield Mackenzie Outlander, 07.09 "Unfinished Business" (2024)
When he pushed past me, he was close enough that I should have felt him brush my sleeve as he passed, but I…I didn’t. And then I turned around to say something, and he had gone. He just vanished.
(Excerpt from The Outlandish Companion volume 2)
Lol Diana is so unserious. He is def not a victim, but John not “pining away from unrequited love”?? ijbol
Oh, he finds physical gratification wherever he can all right. But love? Please, enlighten me… oh wait, there was this one time… even though I wouldn’t say falling in love once in a lifetime — whilst refusing to admit it to himself and to his partner because of the torch he carries for a straight guy — and never doing it again after oh-so-surprisingly losing the lover he didn’t want to fully commit to qualifies as “finding love where he can”, but that is just me!! :///
Also saying that John understands the need to love “rather than to demand the gift of another” is such a weird take if we are talking about him finding reciprocated love.
Reciprocated love is not a matter of demanding anything from anyone, but giving because you want to and receiving in return because the other person also wants to give.
And it’s funny how John, out of all the characters, is the one that has to “understand the need to love” without being loved back. I mean, Claire and Jamie, Bree and Roger, Fergus and Marsali, Ian and Rachel, Dottie and Denzell… but when it comes to John the unrequited love becomes “understanding the need to give without receiving” and reciprocated love becomes “demanding the gift of another”?
I mean-
Do you know, if I'm honest, I have been feeling a bit adrift lately.
Teaching today gave me a nice grounded feeling.

"Before we leave, there's a place I'd like you to see."

"You would have loved it."

Remember that time we drove up into the mountains of North Carolina? I do. You almost drove us off the rode. Because someone thought it was a good idea to kiss me at 75 miles per hour. We almost broke up that weekend. We did break up that weekend. Yeah. But then I pursued you. Through time. Usual story.

Wee Fergus and Bouton in ‘Best Laid Schemes’.
She gestured with her stick around the confines of the cemetery. “This place is reserved for the sisters, a few benefactors of the Hôpital—and those they love.” . . . Against the far wall, but still in consecrated ground, was a row of small stone tablets, each with a single name, “Bouton.” Below each name was a Roman numeral, I through XV. Mother Hildegarde’s beloved dogs. I glanced at her current companion, the sixteenth holder of that name. This one was coal-black, and curly as a Persian lamb. He sat bolt upright at her feet, round eyes fixed on the delinquent orderly, a silent echo of Mother Hildegarde’s outspoken disapproval. The sisters, and those they love.

The loch was calm and the fishing slow, but it was pleasant on the water, with the August sun warm on their backs and the scent of raspberry canes and sun-warmed pine trees wafting from the nearby shore. Full of lunch, they all grew drowsy, and before long, Brianna was curled up in the bow, asleep with her head pillowed on Roger’s jacket.

I was actually thinking of that Mustang of yours. Remember that time we drove up into the mountains in North Carolina? I do. You almost drove us off the road. Because someone thought it was a good idea to kiss me at 75 miles per hour. We almost broke up that weekend. We did break up that weekend. Yeah, but then I pursued you. Through time. [CHUCKLES] Usual story. Mm, watch where you’re going there, Ace. I thought ye found speed erotic. Vroom, vroom. Uh-uh, we’ll wake Jemmy. Mm-mm. Nary a Ford Mustang could wake him. Do you think we’ll ever go 75 miles per hour again?
