Maybe it's like the time travel in LOST instead of in BTTF? Where they were always part of the timeline/events and even if they wanted to change things, they can't because their actions/decisions were always part of the narrative. Or like Oedipus....where he tried so hard to change the prophecy but he was really just playing into it?

I love how Shadow of Night put those past items showing up in future scenes. Does Outlander do that? __________________

They have tried to change the future on few occasions, most notably the Jacobite rising that wiped out the Highlander culture, but were unable to change anything major. At this point I think it is more like that they have always been part of the timeline and that whatever they do, don't change anything.
Claire would be changing the future all the time though, since she is a doctor and keep saving people in the past that would have otherwise absolutely died. __________________

With these time travel things, it makes you think everything you want to do, do the opposite so the past gets changed. __________________

Exactly! It's a time loop.

How would you feel about meeting an ancestor two hundred years before you were born? And what if you didn't like the ancestor because the person was mean?

And now I just thought, imagine if you're really into history and you're looking around at some kind of document and see your name on it. AND THEN you travel back in time and events lead you to sign that document. Quote:

Claire's first husband Frank finds proof that Claire goes back, before she goes back, but I don't think she knew about it. Quote:
