That Which Remains by Elistaire (PG-13)

Fandom: HIGHLANDER
Pairing: Duncan/Methos
Author on LJ: elistaire
Author Website: Taterville
Why this must be read:

The no-fighting-on-Holy-Ground rule is one of the universal constants in the Highlander universe. The reasons behind it, however, were never truly explained. This story gives one of the best explanations I’ve read so far, while managing to give us a wonderful story of loss, grief and love.

Warning: Character death fic.


"Who was he?"

Duncan just gave her a look which was so sad that it made her heart ache. "His name was Methos."

Oh. The word that he'd uttered in the museum. "He looks just like David. Do you think he could be his son?"

"I don't know what to think," Duncan told her. "We can't have children. But he looked so much…." Duncan let his words trail off and he looked at the photo again.

"He was Immortal, too?"

Duncan laughed then, as if she'd made a big joke. "He was Immortal."
