Why this must be read: Look! It's not Duncan/Methos and I'm reccing it! But seriously, this story is a nicely done "missing scene" from CAH/Rev6:8 that portrays a Methos genuinely conflicted by his desires. To me, this is a very likely interpretation of Methos' state of mind at that particular time. The sex here is not fluffy, not by a long shot, but I wouldn't put any major warnings on it. It's Methos/Kronos...all is not hearts and flowers. In addition to the smut, the last few lines are a lesson in how to lie while telling the truth. Pure bonus.
Excerpt: It was shockingly easy to fall back into ancient ways and yet strangely reassuring at the same time. As he tasted the blood from his brother's bitten lip, Methos felt a smile curve his lips, what was that phrase... as well be hung for a sheep as a lamb. He'd already ruined the closest friendship he'd had in millennia and he was about to burn his bridges with its predecessor as well. In all likelihood he was going to be alone for a very long time after this, he would enjoy what he could for as long as he could and then... So long as he didn't lose himself, he could survive this.
