   Summary

   “The first time I saw you," Michaela says, "I thought you were the strong-minded sister of my cousin’s new wife.” She smiles then, small and sad. “Somehow you ended up more than that. You ended up being you.”

   “You say that like it is something special,” Francesca says, voice small.

   Michaela holds her gaze. “It is to me.”

   or, 5 times Michaela leaves Francesca + 1 time she comes back (aka scenes from scotland + a s5 reunion)
