Subject: QOTD for Tuesday, April 26th 2022

The following quote is from Written In My Own Heart's Blood by Diana Gabaldon, Chapter 88 "A Whiff Of Roquefort”, Copyright © 2014 by Diana Gabaldon, all rights reserved.

"He wouldn't have to risk that," Hal said. "He's been relieved of duty."

"What?" John exclaimed, rounding on his brother. "What the devil for?"

Hal sighed, exasperated. "Leaving camp when he was ordered to stay there in the middle of a battle, what else? Getting into a fight with another officer, ending up at the bottom of a ravine with a dent in his skull through being in the wrong place at the wrong time, and in general being a bloody nuisance."

"You're right, he is your son," I said to Jamie, amused. He snorted, but didn't look altogether displeased.

[> [> [> [> I often refer to my husband and two sons as "my men;" the Evil Queen at Disney World saw them behind me and asked if they were my Huntsmen as they were tall and sturdy. -- LadyBelle, Wed, April 27 2022, 18:24:59
