Outlander was recommended to me a couple of weeks ago and now I am completely engrossed in reading these books that I have not done much of anything else. I'm also new to this board. I am currently in the middle of ABOSAA and Claire is talking to Jamie after coming out of her fever. He told her that she was delirious and that she said a lot of things while she was. He tells her that he will tell her later what she said; so, I'm wondering... does he tell her? You don't have to tell me what she said. I'm just wondering if he does tell her what she said and if it's saucy stuff. DG has a way of incorporating elements such as this to revel deep feelings, etc. I'm just wondering if I have that conversation to look forward to. Thanks!!!

I have no memory of Jamie telling Claire anything that she said while delirious.

I had a feeling that what she said would be fuel for a future conversation between she and Jamie from his, "you don't want to know but I'll tell you sometime" comment regarding what she was saying while in fever. Those little hints and foreshadowings are one of my favorite parts about reading these books (that and Jamie, of course!).
I agree with Renee. I don't think it comes up in future conversations. Although, Claire sure does tell Jamie what she thought of seeing Malva giving him comfort while Claire was laying on her death bed. I loved that scene because it was just the push Claire needed to decide to fight and live.
Claire's delirium comments may well show up later in the yet-to-be-published books. That is definitely a loose end, and DG seems to get them all tied up eventually.
