Her Darius is wise, wary, and good, but no saint, and all too susceptible to certain dubious charms of the Devil, as he calls Methos in his own thoughts; her Methos bristles like a cache of old weapons, sharp and rusty and likely to take your hand off, but she hints at his vulnerability and conveys with perfect clarity why Darius can't stay away. The end result packs a truly astonishing amount of history, characterization, emotion, and eroticism into a very small space, and these two short stories will tell you as much about the characters and their relationship as most writers could manage in a novella.
