Summary
The train has just left Dumbar. Just enough time for Jean to get back to her house.
She is in her own mind, in her own thoughts, like at the beginning of the movie when she sits on the window seal.
And in her own mind she is kind of talking to Lydia, justifying to Lydia why she had that moment with Charlie, making him believe she will not follow them soon.
This time she is thinking while she is doing things around the house. Because already, she doesn't want to make her stay here any longer than necessary.
These are her thoughts:

I would never leave your side (for longer than I had to) by Anita7

Summary
Very short kind of fix-it. I was thinking of ways to justify Jean going to Canada (because she always would) taking every second of canon as true and real. And the end speech feels very very difficult to consider truthful and still think Jean goes to Canada. So I guess... This is what I came up with!
Because Dr Jean Markham would never leave her family to fend for themselves in a new country where they know nobody... It doesn't make logical, emotional or logistical sense.

Summary
Before, these expressions of affection were unthinkable, but here lies freedom, if Jean can build up the nerve to grasp it.

Summary
Honey bees use a special dance to communicate the location of a new nesting site and all move together to their new home.
This work continues on from the book's conclusion and follows this little family as they navigate their new life in Italy. No promises of any substantial plot - just a series of small events that have been dancing around in my head. Hope you enjoy.

Summary
Jean stood apprehensively outside the stone house. One hand jammed into her trouser pocket, the other rubbed against her, neck insistently pressing the flesh there. It had been one year since she had seen Lydia, or Charlie.

I didn't love how the movie ended, so here to fix it. It's really not an angsty fic, more like I related to this line from Taylor Swift's Exile: "I think I've seen this film before/And I didn't like the ending"

Summary
Not so long ago, lesbian characters were almost invisible in movies and on television, but things have changed a lot and the times of lesbian subtext are (almost) over. I thought that's worth a music video and chose the hymn of gay people in the 1920ies in Berlin. It was written by Spoliansky/Schwabach (1921), and Jeremy Lawrence wrote an English version of the song in the 1990ies. Both songs are performed by Ute Lemper.
