<blockquote>Methos and Aziraphale over time.</blockquote>

<blockquote>After Amy leaves, the events of the day catch up with Joe. Methos offers to help.</blockquote> ➤ with a massage

➤ The one that posits that that minor character played by Peter Wingfield in whichever X-movie that was, was in fact a brainwashed Methos, who years later gets pulled out of the lake by the X-men. ➤ (Immortals turn out to be a variety of mutant, MacLeod and Methos adopt a mutant baby together, blah blah not much plot happens. ➤ I find the concept interesting and I enjoyed the first few chapters, as well as bits and pieces of later parts, but largely I found it rather boring. ➤ Somehow it managed to both seem too long AND like it was just scenes-from-a-story instead of the actual story itself.)

➤ In which Methos is (or pretends to be) Dionysos.

➤ In which Kowalski's a pre-Immortal. Well. Immortal now. ➤ (old-school in places, but still overall very enjoyable)

➤ in which they are adorable old-book-lovers together

➤ Gorgeous happy fluffy fic about Methos and Duncan and that romance novel that was once written about Duncan, except that it takes place just before Comes A Horseman so it's actually secretly TRAGIC. ➤ In which Methos has a problem with honesty and a thing about his neck, and Duncan is at least five hundred times less mortified than Methos had hoped.

➤ In which the Doctor doesn't like having sex with humans because of the complicated emotional stuff, and Methos doesn't like having sex with the Doctor because it results in him discovering that he accidentally became mind-bonded with Duncan during that double Quickening. Oops. ➤ (also, incidentally, explains where he was for all that time after "Archangel")

➤ Methos as photographer, him and Duncan in the Antarctic

➤ Highlander AMTDI! also at http://archiveofourown.org/works/45342

➤ it's the SNOW QUEEN, RETOLD AS HIGHLANDER. Awesome, or awesomer?

➤ a fascinating, confusing story that's sort of time travel and sort of...weird mental stuff. ➤ When Methos is in the limbo state of being temporarily dead, he gets called by Kronos (because of the shared quickening, he can act as a go-between) into Duncan-of-the-future's mind, after he's won the Gathering and become the One and accidentally destroyed the universe and gone mad. ➤ To fix it, Kronos and Duncan-of-the-future say he has to kill Duncan. Methos is sure there must be a better way

➤ I. Um. It's Methos/OC (though still with close friendship with Duncan) and yet I LOVE it. Nate is so wonderful, and he and Methos go so well together. ➤ author site is now down and they haven't (yet?) posted this to their ao3 as of feb 2020. They appear to be updating their ao3 extremely slowly but haven't yet stopped??

➤ in which Duncan keeps on taking challenges to protect Methos, and Methos has been giving bits of his quickening to Duncan to protect Duncan, and Methos ends up almost dying before they both stop being stupid. Medium-length.

➤ AU/canon. Duncan somehow ends up in a world where immortality doesn't exist, and discovers a man who's actually Adam Pierson. Medium-length.

➤ the one with the phone-sex line and the amazing excellentness

➤ trying to figure out what each other is

➤ post the Byron thing, Methos and Duncan talk through their issues that have been hanging in the air since the Horsemen thing. ➤ Also, has interesting tidbits of Methos having known Jesus (though never explicitly mentioned by name it's pretty clear that's what was being gone for). ➤ Then read all the sequels. ➤ Lots of angst, and super-insecure Methos, and some cheese, but all thoroughly enjoyable. very long, all the stories in combination.

➤ Um. I failed at making notes to remind myself what this story was about... but it was good?

➤ Methos and Duncan, talking. About a lot of stuff. ➤ What it means to be Immortal, the Game, the Horsemen stuff, their relationship... it's lovely.

➤ make sure to read sequel (link on side). ➤ Methos/Duncan's complicated relationship.

➤ Methos and Duncan meet in Japan, much later. They have a complicated relationship.

➤ that one with all the hardcore bdsm painplay stuff, bc it's the only way Methos can get off

➤ lovely slow moving-into-dating type scenario

➤ post-horsemen and Byron. And then another sketchy figure from Methos' past appears! ➤ (also includes interesting Darius stuff)

➤ Joe shows up in the middle of the night to tell Methos that Duncan's dead. (turns out, though, he's not! yay)

➤ Ah, that lovely harlequin cliche of pretending to be a couple when you're not.

➤ Duncan's never slept with another man, asks Methos about it. They have sex. ➤ Methos doesn't want to be just curiosity (loves Duncan!) but then Duncan freaks out the morning after and leaves. And then everything gets better (eventually)

➤ Methos forgets he's anyone but Adam Pierson
