Immortal legacy, PG, by dswdiane
Yikes nearly the end of the month, but just enough time to slip in a couple more highlander gems.
Fandom: Highlander
Pairing: Duncan/Methos/Amanda
Length: 4.5K

“And now, you’re back,” Amanda said with great satisfaction.
“Snatching us from our peaceful lives and taking us God knows where.”
“Somewhere out and about in the very French country side, now that we’ve finally escaped the madding crowds of the Paris suburbs,” Methos said. “I can remember when Paris didn’t have suburbs. I can remember- ”
