    Summary

    Brianna and Claire discover that having your mom do your postpartum followup is awkward as hell. Claire and Jamie take refuge where they always do. Frasers, learning to be a family in fits and starts. Brief mentions of the Stephen Bonnet arc and its emotional implications, but no graphic details.

    Title is taken from “My Medea” by Vienna Teng.

    This story follows mostly show characterization and plot (especially about Frank and Claire’s lack of sex life) though I moved up when Jamie and Claire both know Bonnet is alive. I also assume Team Fraser stayed at River Run for a few days before Roger shows up. I wanted to explore how the hell Bree went from being so angry at Jamie to happy with him at her wedding, and how she felt about Claire missing Jemmy's birth. Her telling Murtagh she’d already forgiven her fstjer seemed too tidy.

    This is set during and just after “Man of Worth” but ends just before “The Fiery Cross” wedding episode. This story is a standalone but overlaps somewhat thematically and temporally with another one, which is why it's Part 1 in the series.
