* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Mr Willoughby worked all his life to be recognized as a royal scribe. One of the royal wives took note of his beautiful poetry and wanted him brought on as her royal poet, a great honor. However, to do so, he would have to submit to castration so that there would be no risk of him bedding the emperor's wife. Instead, Yi Tien Cho fled to the West, forced to leave behind all his friends, family, and possessions. He then arrived in a place where he's treated like little more than a talking monkey.

Fergus insists they're in love to which Jamie rebuts that they hardly know each other. Fergus reminds Jamie that he and Claire married not long after meeting to which Jamie replies that they were forced to marry.
-->'''Fergus:''' Milord, you forget. I know your story. If you were forced to marry Milady, then I'm forced to breathe. My heart, it is forced to beat. You yourself have told me you wanted her more than life from the moment you saw her. You didn't need time. Nor do I.
