(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”?

“Brianna”, he said softly. “Ye say it wrong, Sassenach. Her name is Brianna.” He said it with an odd Highland lilt, so that the first syllable was accented, the second barely pronounced. Breeanah.
“Breeanah?” I said, amused. He nodded, eyes still fixed on the pictures.
“Brianna”, he said. “It’s a beautiful name.”
― Claire and Jamie, Voyager.

Been a while since I’ve had a proper fit about The Scottish Prisoner…
This. Fucking. Book.
“Slime-wrapped sexual congress.”
“Fraser… felt him go and grabbed him, catching him round the middle”
“His breath warm on Grey’s cheek”
“He touched Fraser’s chest, warm and solid through his clothes.”
IN THE SAME GOD DAMN SCENE HOW DOES THIS BOOK NOT END WITH THESE TWO FUCKING

Death of the author: Treating the author’s stated interpretation of their own work as merely one opinion among many, rather than the authoritative Word of God.
Disappearance of the author: Treating the context and circumstances of the work’s authorship as entirely irrelevant with respect to its interpretation, as though the work had popped into existence fully formed just moments ago.
Taxidermy of the author: Working backwards from a particular interpretation of the work to draw conclusions about what the context and circumstances of its authorship must have been.
Undeath of the author: Holding the author personally responsible for every possible reading of their work, even ones they could not reasonably have anticipated at the time of its authorship.
Frankenstein’s Monster of the author: Drawing conclusions about authorial intent based on elements that are present only in subsequent adaptations by other authors.
Weekend at Bernie’s of the author: Insisting that the author would personally endorse your interpretation of the work if they happened to be present.
