Y’all, we are slowly but surely coming back. This week I’ve got a few fics I’ve currently been loving. Some old, some new, but fics nonetheless! I hope you all had a great weekend and enjoy the final days of droughtlander!

Magnificent Strangers: @kalendraashtar​

As most of you all know, anything Kal writes is magic. Magnificent Strangers is no different. There are some of those AUs that give us a twist to Jamie and Claire that is so unique, it’s hard to put into words. This is one of those stories. I could go on and on about Kal, this story, and how beautiful it is, but I don’t want to spoil any of it it. It’s worth the binge.

The Cellist Series: @desperationandgin​

This series is something else. Y’all... It’s just... SO good. There is nothing quite like this in the Outlander fanifc realm, at all. Britt does such a good job encompassing so many different human emotions and giving a new breath of life to Jamie and Claire. This won’t disappoint. 

The Sands of Time: @holdhertightandsayhername​

Again, this one will pull on your heart strings. I fell to the wayside keeping up with this story and reread it all in one sitting. Jen gives her own twist of love, heartache, and times of trouble and it just does not disappoint. An emotional rollercoaster, but so beautifully done. I am sad I waited so long to read this one!

And a shameless self promotion: Time After Time. 

I worked on a part of this because of an ask someone gave me. It reinvigorated my ideas for this story and I hope to crank some of it out. 

Anyways, that’s all Waffs has been reading as of late. I am re-starting the series too, so that will be interesting. Happy Premiere week! May the odds be ever in our favor.

XO, Librarian Waffs

Thank you to our friends at @imagineclaireandjamie​ for the tag!

We have tons of different Category lists which can be found here. Hopefully you find something you like.

Hi!!! I need your help. So I've read Tagalong, Conections, Flood my mornings, that where j and c are roomates, that Au where they meet on a plane, Helwater and some more, I can't remember the names. Please can you recommend me some?, haha, there are many options and I don't even know which one to choose 😅

Anon - this is a great list to start off with!

Have you read through what our dear friends over at @thelallybrochlibrary have curated? They painstakingly archive and categorize every single story in the fandom. Take a look and enjoy!

Happy Reading,

The Mods

A Light in the Dark

Chapter 31: The Matter of a Broken Heart

AO3 || DA || FFN

Characters: Evan Pettiwhisker Tildrum, Roland Crane, Aranella, Tani, Lofty, Batu, Runcible the Righteous, Wiff-waff the Wafty, Frumious the Flammable, Captain Ya Pi, Ya Ya (OC), Li Li, other minor OCs

Pairings/relationships: Everyone & Evan

Summary: Before the party can peruse the library, they must deal with another broken heart.

Warnings: None

Boddily is being jettisoned from the narrative. Sorry but anyone who gatekeeps access to a library has 1) no business calling themselves a librarian and 2) no business running a library. Goodbye!

[wafflesetc]

Can you tell me whether the Lallybroch Library ask box is just temporarily shut down, or am I having a problem all on my own? I see anon asks posted — I don’t have Tmblr account— but when I opened the ask box the message is “there’s nothing here” like a “closed account” message, there in the ask box after the guidelines. ??? Thank you!

Our ask box is still temporarily closed while we play catch up. We hope to have it open in the next few days!

XO, Librarian Waffs

Hi there! I’m looking for modern AUs that have been finished! I love Jamie as a dad ones! I’m quarantined and looking for a few completed stories I can binge through start to finish :)

Hi!

We’re sorry this has taken us a while to get too. There are quite a few out there. This can be a really large category so we’re actually going to direct you to AO3�� and to use their sort and filter option. Here you can select modern AU and then the completed option. It will give you an ample list of Modern AU completed fics. (Click on the link, it should direct you to the filtered list!)

If you’d like the Librarian’s favorite “Da” Jamie stories, feel free to let us know and we can give you a more directed answer! 

Flood My Mornings by @bonnie-wee-swordsman and Modern Glasgow by @gotham-ruaidh are two good places to start. 

[thelallybrochlibrary]

Hiii ❤️ I love the work you put into running this Library 🎉 wanted to ask if you have a category or list of fics where Claire and Jamie start from friends/roommates/being the lover of the other's colleague to being together? Thaaanks a lot! ❤️❤️❤️

Hi there anon,

Check out our category list for this!

Happy reading!

[thelallybrochlibrary]

I have tried to send an ask to the fraserwitch but did not succeed. I saw an update on Forget me not and I was happy! Then I realised it was not the one I wanted to read the most. Do you know if there ever going to be an update on thefraserwitch Forget me not? I love it and its complicated, angsty and I would really love to read more! Please and thank you!

Hi,

@thefraserwitch answered an ask over on her blog regarding updates to Florist and Hello My Auld Heart. 

She said she’s working on it but it’s taking some time. Hopefully we get an update soon, we are all missing the story too!

[thelallybrochlibrary]

A message to all the fanfic writers: Thanks for sharing your creativity with us during this time when we needed it most. It has been a tough year for most with everything going on in the world and droughtlander. I wanted to post this message to show my appreciation for their hard work and beautiful imagination in sharing their art. I'd like to start this thread on this wonderful site that gives the writers a platform. Tag a fanfic writer to show your appreciation. Thanks LL and Happy New Year!

We love this idea!

Fandom, please feel free to reblog this and shout out some of your favorites authors and more! We’d also like to open this thread up to ALL forms of fan art, because sometimes writing isn’t the only way to express all our feels!

Do you know where I can find the story Clairevoyence(sp)?

Hello,

Clair(e)voyance is written by the wonderful @notevenjokingfic. You can find the stories on her Tumblr page, hitting “Menu” in the top left corner, and a drop down list will appear. The stories are all linked there, as well as the rest of her works. However, we have compiled the links for you down below.

Here are the 4 sections (and the accompanying ficlets):

Clair(e)voyance 1.0

Clair(e)voyance 2.0

Does waffles ever plan on updating on updating closing time? I’m trying to be patient but I love that story and am beyond ready for an update!!! TY for all you ladies do!!!!

Hi there,

Librarian Waffles here. I am actually really happy to have received this message. I have been in a rut recently and to be honest, didn’t think the chapters I have semi-ready were worth it. However, hearing people want to hear more has been just the kick in the rear I need. I’ll have it posted by Saturday. 

XO,

Librarian Waffles

Hi Friends,

The ASKBOX will be CLOSED until May 13th while we do some mild housekeeping!

[thelallybrochlibrary]

Can you tell me the name of the fic where Jamie is in a band and he and Claire start a romance and at the end he sings a song he wrote for her?

You are looking for STAY by @kkruml!  (On AO3)

Happy reading, 

[thelallybrochlibrary]

Are there any story where Claire and Jamie are friends but realize they actually love each other during quarantine? I just saw Sophia Bush is with her longtime friend of 9 years because of quarantine. If not, someone pleeeeesee write it. I'll buy you pizza

Hello there,

So with this particular ask, we don’t have a one-size-fits-all that fulfills the entire prompt: 

Love in a Time of Quarantine by @holdhertightandsayhername 

Jamie and Claire both live in Edinburgh. Unfortunately, they only went out once before the Covid-19 lockdown was enforced. This is a sneak-peek of their text messages...

This is the closest story to what you’re asking, especially since it’s during quarantine. 

If you’re looking for friends-to-lovers trope we suggest: (Though, these do not have any quarantining in them)

Beauchamp Riots by @kalendraashtar and I’ll be there for you I by @abreathofsnowandwaffles.

HapWpy reading,

PS- If anyone does want to write this story, we are throwing it out there to the world! 

[thelallybrochlibrary]

Any stories where Jamie and claire are friends but he's secretly in love with her?

Hi there,

We have a whole romcom list for your reading pleasure. We also suggest these two stories of the friends-to-lovers trope!
