Why this must be read: This one is hilarious. And kinky. And hilarious. And hot. But mostly, hilarious.
Seriously, you'll be grinning the whole time, is such an amazing story. The idea is gold, and the execution, perfect. esjay call it: A comedy of errors, bruises and 'accidental' death, and this is an accurate description.
But don't take my word on this, here, take a look:

Duncan honestly thought -- whenever he had thought about it, which wasn't all that much, just a small obsession two or three times an hour for the last eight years when he hadn't anything more life-threatening to do -- that once he'd made the first move on Methos it would be all plain sailing from there.

The old bastard was clearly waiting for him to do it. He couldn't have made himself more available over the years without hanging a sign around his neck. Staking claim to his couches time after time with his legs spread and his neck bared and that 'come and get me' dare glinting in his eyes. Sidling inside his personal space at every opportunity. Sprawling across his bed, for crying out loud. Could the man have been any more obvious?

But Methos avoided starting anything, so Duncan always figured it'd be up to him. And that was fine. He'd choose a time and a place when he was completely ready for Methos and everything that came with him. Okay, so it had taken him eight years and that was slightly pathetic, but now that he'd decided to go for it, he'd expected it to be pretty much plain sailing. Well, as plain sailing as he could manage with a viper-tongued five thousand year old man in his bed.

Boy, was he wrong.

So, are you convinced, now? Go to Straight and Low and have a good laugh :)
