Okay, kids. This is it. This is the official livetweet thread for my binge of the first 3 seasons of #Outlander [since that's all that's on Netflix currently].

If you don't want to deal with my squeeing, flailing, & swearing, this would probably be the time to mute this bitxh.
Okay, here we go with ep 01x01.

I haven't seen this since I watched S1 first run, so it's been a while, hence me restarting from the beginning.
My god, but she's a beautiful woman...
I really never liked Frank, ngl... Never understood what Claire saw in him.
Okay, but I'll give him credit for jumping on the bed with her and indulging her in that.
...Can we just skip this shit with Frank and get her back in time or...
One of my favorite OCs to write for is from Clan Mackenzie, though her family spells it MacKenzie [and sometimes McKenzie when I am being particularly ditzy]. She's of half-Scottish and half-Greek descent.
...At least Frank's not opposed to giving oral?
I've always wanted to learn to read tea leaves, ngl...
The palmistry reading fascinated me, too.
Was that Jamie standing there watching Claire?! How did I forget this from the first time I watched this ep?!
The Samhain druidic ritual is so fckn gorgeous. And Bear's music just makes it all the more beautiful.
Wait! Was that Geillis that interrupted them at Craigh na Dun? Bits and pieces of S1 are starting to come back now.
Oh Claire, baby, you wish this was a costume drama...
Oh shit! Black Jack! Run, Claire!
I love Dougal! I do remember that!
I love that Claire's got that uneasiness of clearly being a bit aroused by Jamie, but tryna fight it. Baby girl, it's a losing battle...
*snickers at the men's reactions to Claire's swearing*
Moving on to ep 01x02 now...
How tf could I forget Mrs. Fitzgibbons?!
...Or the ruin that is Jamie's back?!
...I really fckn hate Black Jack.
*snickers at Claire explaining her bra to Mrs. Fitzgibbons* It's from France.
"Is there ever a good reason for r*pe, Master MacKenzie?"

I love this woman!
Fckn Geillis... I remember not trusting her ass. LOL

...And I've gotten myself caught up in this ep, so not as many comments. Oops?
Okay, had to take a small break to check on the new furkids, but now we're moving on to ep 01x03...
I'm tryna remember if Claire was right to trust Mrs. Fitzgibbons or not here...
Sweet Cylon baby Jesus, I forgot that was a dream! LOL
Claire's cursing always cracks me up, ngl...
Claire's fckn with Jaime and I am here for it! LOL
I seriously don't trust Geillis.
Oh, Claire, you're doing yourself no good to piss off the priest, even if you're right.
And on to ep 01x04 ...and probably last ep of the night.
I still do NOT trust Geillis and I can't fully remember why yet, but I'm sure it'll come to me as I keep watching S1.
"Tap your heels three times and repeat 'There's no place like love'."

Claire, you cheeky bitxh. LMFAOOOOOO
DOUGAL! DON'T MAKE ME HATE YOU, FCKER!
Okay, Jamie is sexy af when he's all gussied up in his tartan and shit, IJS...
Claire, you idiot! That boar's still fckn out there!
Jamie and Dougal going all out in that game? That was both hilarious and hot af, ngl...
Okay, pausing now until tomorrow, as I need some sleep. LOL
All right, let's just pick back up with ep 01x05, shall we?
Oh, was it ep 5 where we got the intro that I'm used to? Or am I just being a dumbass and forgetting that this was the same one for the first four eps that I watched last night? 😅😅😅
Claire helping the women with the wool dying was sweet and hilarious at the same time.
...So this isn't just about collecting rent. This is about gathering more money and men to fight the British. Got it.
I do love that Claire can use her "history" and info from Frank to help understand what's happening back in 1743.
Oh, I had legit forgotten about the ending of this ep and that choice of Claire's...
And on to ep 01x06...
Y'know, I do love that Dougal went with Claire, though whether it was for Claire's safety or to ensure his clan's safety is still up in the air. I choose to believe it was for both, tbh...
Claire telling off the Brits and supporting Dougal is one of the best things ever!
Ugh! And she met Black Jack again! I really can't fckn stand him on any level. Though I do applaud the casting to have the same actor play him and Frank.
I really don't fckn like him...
Fck this douche and his threats of torture!
The fact that he glories in his sadistic tortures...
His explanation of Jamie's torture as "a masterpiece" and a connection between them is one of the most grotesque but compelling things...
"The rehabilitation of Black Jack Randall. You could make a fortune betting against that."

No shit, Sherlock!
I can't believe I forgot that he fckn did that to her! Or maybe it's that I forgot he did it this early?
This sadistic fckn bastard! Thank fck Dougal showed up!
The amusement on Dougal's face when Claire thinks he intends to marry her though... 🤣🤣🤣
And on to ep 01x07 and the wedding!
The "boys" tryna get a look at Claire's b👀bs is not even a shock. LOL
And Jamie all confused by how to undress Claire is sweetly amusing, ngl...
...He's got some big hands, IJS.
OMFG This post-first time conversation is hilarious and sweet by turns.
Jesus, all these assheauxles fckn with Jamie after his first time. Such boys! *rolls eyes fondly* And Dougal being so serious seems appropriate though.
These two idiots trying to explain about the ring. JFC LOL
Jesus, but her dress is fckn gorgeous! And he looks handsome af, too!
Beautiful ceremony ...and Bear's music just underscores it so perfectly!
Dougal?! Man, WTF?!
Claire and the two rings ...and the forked marriage line.
Okay, time for ep 01x08 and the halfway point of the season!
Dragonfly in amber!
Wow! 1500£ reward was a lot of money back then, wasn't it?
Who is this chick? Is she taking him to Jamie? Or is she gonna bilk Frank of the reward money?
So I was right that it was to get his money.
The lads teaching her how to defend herself! So funny and sweet!
And such a fantastic premonition! OMFG! I'd forgotten about THAT, too!
The housekeeper being right is awesome. That Frank doesn't believe her is not the slightest bit shocking.
And back at Craigh na Dun. And Frank's there, too? Why do I not remember this scene?
Oh, that's right! This was when she got caught by the Brits and brought back into Black Jack's clutches...
SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT! I REMEMBER THIS NOW! I DON'T LIKE THIS!
"I'll thank you to take your hands off my wife."

I FCKN LOVE YOU, JAMIE FRASER!
Let's keep going with ep 01x09, shall we?
That was an epic fckn fight. And them making up is so sweet...
That whole scene of Jamie punishing Claire juxtaposed with the men all joking about it is so funny and yet made me roll my eyes at the whole "mind your husband" attitude. And good on her for kicking him in the eye. LOL
...Did Dougal just basically say that Collum's son isn't actually his son?
Okay, I'd forgotten about Jamie pledging his fealty to Claire. That was sweet and sexy af.
Uh... Claire threatening Jamie during sex was such a Regina fckn thing to do. LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
"What does f*cking mean?"

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Fckn Laoghaire!
Already up to ep 01x10...
Now THAT is how you get woken up in the morning!
LMFAOOOOOO I got so sucked into this episode that I forgot to live tweet anything about it. Ooops? I vaguely remember being this sucked in the first time I saw it, too.
All right, on to ep 01x11. And I'm tryna remember now if this trial is where it came out that Geillis was also a "time traveller" like Claire or not. Or rather where Claire found out, or if I'd just remembered that from the books when I first watched S1.
This whole trial was fascinating af the first time I watched it. But then that sort of thing has ALWAYS fascinated me ever since I was a kid, so...
Okay, I DID remember correctly that Geillis told Claire the truth ...or at least the barest bones of it.
Oh shit! I DID forget that Geillis confessed though to let Jamie get Claire to safety!
God, Claire divulging the truth to Jamie while in pain and torment and not knowing if he'll believe her or not is killing me!
Oh hell! He means the future "home", doesn't he? This tricksy bastard! I forgot about this! That's why he just wanted to watch her the night before! ...But she's not sure she wants to go back anymore. These fckn idiots.
Yeah, he doesn't want her to go either.
Now was it implied that she tried and didn't get to go through in time or that she just didn't go at all? I've never been sure, tbh...
Okay, we're up to ep 01x12 and I feel just as sucked in as I did the first time when I was watching it weekly. LOL
...Did Jenny call Jamie "Ard Righ"?!
Okay, I'd forgotten about this bit with what Black Jack wanted in lieu of the second flogging. Sick fckn man...
Jenny and Claire clashing is almost as fascinating as Jenny and Jamie clashing. Though I've a feeling that Jenny seeing Jamie's scars will change her tune in a lot of ways.
Jesus! Poor Jenny thinking that she caused Jamie's scars and their father's death by laughing that Black Jack.
Okay, I got all caught up in ep 01x13 and forgot to mention I'd moved on. So who tf are these brigands tryna bully Jenny and her hubs? And why is Jamie not kicking their asses?
What the everloving fck?! Just starting a fire for the fck of it? Assheauxle bullies!
Okay, Jenny's description of being pregnant and in labor is fascinating af ...and you can TELL Claire wants to experience it with Jamie.
The bit about Jenny wanting to be drunk and how the baby would be born drunk and a true Scot had me cackling!
Oh, poor Claire having to tell Jamie she may not be able to give him children...
I am really digging the relationship growing between Jenny and Claire during the labor process.
Okay, time to move on to ep 01x14...
Claire, baby, you've been in war. You know there are times that death is the answer, as distasteful as it may be.
Oh hey, good girl, Claire. I'm glad you admitted that. I know it must've been hard.
Claire using her own palmistry given to her to ask about Jamie's whereabouts. This sweet baby...
"Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy"?! LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Okay, Dougal's fckn pissing me off rn...
Claire, I love you for that deal you just struck with Dougal.
As much as I want to continue to finish the season tonight, I'm getting tired, so I'm gonna pause here.
Okay, time to pick this up again with ep 01x15...
How tf did I forget about the hangings at the beginning of this ep?! Did I really blank out this shit on top of what I know is coming in the next ep?
Oh, that's right! Fckn Black Jack stops his execution. Of fckn course! Or we wouldn't have that other shite that I refuse to ever watch again.

Yeah, spoiler alert: I will be quite willfully and gleefully skipping ep 01x15. Once was enough for that travesty of horrors.
Man, this is so painful for Claire to have to lie about her relationship to Jamie, then be told she can't see him, then be given all of his personal effects. I remember hating this scene the first time. Still hate it now.
I fckn love Jamie for not submitting to Black Jack, even if it means more torture.
Can someone at least tell me if Black Jack gets his comeuppance for what he's done to Claire and Jamie? I don't need details [I wanna experience that firsthand], I just need to know that it eventually happens.
Oh fckn hell! That's right! I'd almost forgotten that Black Jack caught Claire tryna free Jamie.

Yeah, I clearly blocked out a lot of shit from this ep and the next one ...for obvious fckn reasons.
I will say this. Tobias played Black Jack so fckn well, I legit hated him as an actor the first time I watched this ...and I was an adult who could distinguish between fantasy and reality. He was THAT convincing in this role.
It's the nail bit. If you've seen it, you know what I'm talking about. If you haven't, you don't need to. All you need to know is that I actually had to look away this time. And then this sick fck kissing Jamie afterward while Claire is sobbing uncontrollably? I fckn hate him.
Oh! I forgot that she plays the "witch" card and gives him the day/time he dies! I fckn love her! I want to hurt him for what he does to her after that, but I love that she fckT with him like that!
Okay, I'm seriously starting to wonder now if THIS is the ep I had the issues with and perhaps never actually watched the S1 finale. Was there something worse that happened in TRAMS than in this ep?
Okay, as I stated at least once already, I'm absolutely skipping ep 01x16 because I never want to watch TRAMS again. Once was more than enough for my poor brain and soul. So I'ma go get a load of laundry started and check on my furkids and then get ready to start S2.
Okay, moving on to S2 with ep 02x01...
Oh, I forgot about her admitting to being pregnant at the end of the S1 finale. Yeah, I blocked AAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLL that shit out. LOL
Wait! What's she doing back at Craigh na Dun?! What the fck is going on?!
Is she back in 1945 now or...
1948? So she lost 3 years? And they lost Culloden? FCCCCCCCKKKKKKKK!
Okay, I know the song is the same, but that intro is different, yes? I don't remember that gorgeous fckn serpent.

...Or am I just a dumbass who keeps looking away during the intro?
Wait! Is she still pregnant or...
Oh shit! That flinch when Frank goes to touch her! She's gotta be freaking out over the similarities to Black Jack.
FRANK! DUDE! I get that you're upset and find Claire's story fantastical at best, but you gotta cut her some fckn slack, dude!

And Claire, bby, maybe you should tell him about his ancestor and what that fcker did to you and Jamie?
PTSD is fckn real, man, and they both have it. And watching Frank's reaction to everything, especially his anger as he's destroying that shed, is REALLY showing his connections to Black Jack.
Okay, I'm not sure who wee Roger is, but he's fckn adorable!
Okay, I get what Frank is saying, but fck him for forcing Claire to completely give up Jamie like that. This is bullshit! Even with Claire's promise to Jamie, this is bullshit. I'm not pleased with this and I'm kinda hating Frank rn, ngl...
PLEASE TELL ME SHE DOESN'T GET RID OF THE WEDDING RING!
Okay, at least he's being decent about the ring. I still don't think this is right that she should be packing all of this up and getting rid of it, ffs! That is still Jamie's child and that child should know about his/her father.
Fck Frank for burning that outfit! Yeah, I hate him rn. This makes me hate the entire Randall line, ngl...
Oh... Jamie and his poor hand...
This French fck is a douchebag.
Moving on to ep 02x02...

And I'ma just say it now that I'll never tire of Jamie and Claire sex sce-- What the actual fckn fck was that shit?! Oh poor Jamie...
Wait! Did I block out Jamie klIIing Black Jack or...
The courtly intrigues in France are fascinating, ngl...
Why does young Mary seem familiar to me? My history is failing me atm. LOL
And I gotta say that red dress is KILLER on Claire, ngl...
What the actual fck is with the foot fetish?! LMFAOOOOO
"I told you that dress would bring us grief."

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Okay, fck Sandringham for the smarmy bastard he is!
WAIT! Black Jack's ISN'T dead?!
Okay, moving on to ep 02x03...
So wait! She's hugely pregnant here, but is still barely pregnant in 1948 when she's returned to Frank? To paraphrase Captain Janeway, "I hate temporal mechanics."
Jamie is not gonna be pleased when Claire gets home.
Fergus is gonna end up important, right?
WHY HAS IT TAKEN ME THIS LONG TO FIGURE OUT WHY MOTHER HILDEGARDE LOOKS AND SOUNDS SO FCKN FAMILIAR?! OMFGGGGG
And here we are at ep 02x04, just cooking along...
WHAT THE FCK IS HAPPENING TO CLAIRE?!
WHAT DID THAT SMARMY FRENCH BASTARD DO?!
Yeah, Jamie's not gonna take that news well, Claire...
Louise is kind of an idiot, no? Oh, but Claire's gonna need to remember her words to Louise in a few years when she returns to Frank while pregnant with Jamie's child, no?
What the hell is Jamie doing with bite marks on his thighs?!
No, Jamie, I KNOW you're not explaining this well.
Okay, I get what Jamie's saying now, and what Claire's saying, too. These poor babies...
Oh Claire, using sex as a way to reconnect with your husband is fckn brilliant!
So Claire's learning shit she can take forward into the future, eh? Interesting...
OMFG Poor Mary!
Yeah, I'm wondering if St. Germain's involved in that attack, too.
Oh shit! Here we go! Charlie's gonna go off the deep end here, innit?
Aaaaaaand Mary's freaking out on Alexander. Not exactly a surprise, given what happened, but the guests are gonna get the wrong impression of him, no?
Oh Fergus, you little shit! LOL
Okay, moving on to ep 02x05...
Man, Murtaugh is fckT up about the attack, isn't he?
What the fck is Jack Randall doing in France?!
Oh... The look on Jamie's face when the King tells Randall to beg.
Jamie has a dead sexy smirk, ngl...
Okay, that last fight? That was some intense shit! I need a minute here...
Okay, time for ep 02x06...
Oh Claire, why do I get the feeling that Master Raymond is gonna throw your ass under the bus to save his own neck?
Wait! Jamie makes her promise to go back through the stones to Frank?! Is this-- This is related to her waking up at Craigh na Dun in the S2 premier, isn't it?
Claire and Fergus is amusing, ngl...
And using Jamie as the guinea pig for the fake smallpox breakout is great.
Fckn Murtaugh and Jamie. LOL
This scene between Murtaugh and Claire is beautifully done...
She's bleeding and Mother Hildegarde is NOT telling the whole truth. I can see it in her face. Why Claire can't see it is beyond me...
IS SHE GONNA LOSE THE BABY BECAUSE OF JAMIE FIGHTING WITH [I ASSUME] RANDALL?!
...Did he just basically ruin Randall's chances of ever fathering a child? What about Frank then?
...This show is evil, IJS.
Okay, we're up to ep 02x07 ...and yes, I've been given trigger warnings for this one, thankfully.
Jesus, but she ages nicely! And her little girl is gorgeous!
Okay, the shattering of the statue of the Virgin was a beautiful counterpoint to Claire emotionally shattering.
