In which Claire is about to see Jamie for the first time since the events in the Bois de Bologne.

I cannot say enough about the incredible portrayal of Claire by Caitriona Balfe in this episode of the Starz adaptation of "Dragonfly in Amber." She left me a sobbing mess every time. I can only hope that I've managed to capture a fraction of the roil of emotions running through her in this moment.

This is me trying a new, looser style with a textured brush (acrylic 2, if you're wondering), at the suggestion of the ever awesome alby_mangroves, who is very good at reminding me that I don't always have to follow my reference EXACTLY. Thanks also to amphigoury, jelazakazone, rocknvaughn, and gwyntastic for beta and cheerleading!
