    Summary: On a planet ruled by healers, Carson learns some unintended lessons about courage and love.
    Archive: If it's on your list, you can archive it. If it isn't and you'd like it, just let me know where you're putting it.

    Disclaimer: Not mine. They belong to many other people. But if they were mine, they'd be having very interesting adventures.
    Author's Notes: Written for Rose for the Carson Beckett Ficathon. This tale is set before Poisoning the Well. The title refers to the red lion on the *other* Scottish flag, and the way some folks refer to Carson as "the Cowardly Lion." Massively awesome beta by Jenji and Abylity, with aid from Zortified, Lucia Tanaka, and kt4ever.
