Why this must be read:

I'm driving for Highlander this month. I signed up because a certain fic had not been rec'd, but before I get to it, I present to you all "The Highlander's Guide to Hitchhiking in the Star Wars Universe: The Crossover Menace". This is the funniest thing I've found in the Highlander fandom; I must have read it at least a dozen times, and I still bust a gut laughing. "What might happen if Methos decided to escape the Gathering altogether – by hitching a ride on the first starship that passed by. And took Duncan with him. And just happened to get picked up by a certain Jedi pair..."

The characters are OOC – part of the fun of this wild ride – the sex is fantastic and kinky, and it's by Sleeps With Coyotes and Bunny. What more do you need?

"Duncan," Methos began, then paused with a frown, taking a deep breath. "Duncan, would you like to have a drink with me? There's a Restaurant I think you'd enjoy, a bit out-of-the-way, but worth the trip, I promise..."

Swallowing hard, Duncan nodded without speaking. One last drink, before they risked meeting each other over crossed blades. What did he have to lose?

"Good," Methos smiled, one of those rare, genuine smiles that lit his incredible eyes with a warm glow that made Duncan's insides do embarrassing things. "But listen, maybe your eyes are better--does that thing look silver to you, or am I out of my mind?"

Following Methos eyes, Duncan felt his heart mark double-time before it stumbled up short, his gaze fixed on a sleek, graceful shape that shot down out of the clear blue sky. It wasn't a flying saucer, and it wasn't green, but Duncan found he was in no mood to quibble about such things, because it was definitely...that is...there was no way it was...

"Thank the gods for the Electronic Thumb," Methos muttered under his breath, stuffing the strange black rod he'd been playing with into his pack. "Come on, Duncan, we're outta here--but first, let me stick this fish in your ear..."

Duncan didn't even blink as Methos purposefully waved about a jar holding a small yellow fish. There was a spacecraft angling in for a landing in the middle of Paris. Because Methos had used an Electronic Thumb. To escape the Gathering.

It was probably a good thing this was a four-lane street.

We might need more than a one-rec agenda; say, a month of recs intended to lure new readers into the fandom.
We might want more than a crossover fic when it's not even crossover day.

You're posting a little early for crossover day. I'll add it to memories but you need to edit it into the crossover rec format.
