Subject: QOTD for Friday, December 10, 2021

The following quotation is from Written In my Own Heart’s Blood by Diana Gabaldon. Copyright 2014 All Rights Reserved. Chapter 21 Bloody Men


“We are betrothed, William - Ian and I,” she said, gently pulling her hand out of his and putting it on Ian’s.

William’s face changed abruptly, losing its look of happiness altogether. He eyed Ian with something remarkably close to dislike.

“Are you,” he said flatly. “I suppose I must wish you every happiness, then. Good day.” He turned on his heel, and Ian, surprised, reached out to pull him back.

“Wait - “ he said, and then William turned and hit him in the mouth.

He was lying on his back in the leaves, blinking in disbelief, as Rollo hurtled over him and sank his teeth into some soft part of William, judging by the yelp and brief cry of startlement from Rachel.

“Rollo! Bad dog - and thee is a bad dog, too, William Ransom! What the devil does thee mean by this?”

[> Oh boy. She IS upset. She used his first AND last name. I wonder if she would have used all of his names (and titles) if she knew them. 😂😂 -- JamesG, Fri, December 10 2021, 9:19:15

[> Like father, like son! Yes, JamesG, I agree. Rather like Mom used to do when we were in trouble, first and middle names. -- DianaH, Fri, December 10 2021, 10:00:57

[> [> Outspoken and secure in her convictions. I do wonder how long her nonviolent status will last given that she is betrothed to a man of blood. -- kgp, Fri, December 10 2021, 20:56:01
