Hush by Sleeps with Coyotes (NC-17)
Hi, I'm Clio. I'll be your Highlander rec'er for the month of November. Remember to keep all your appendages that you wish to keep inside the vehicle. There will be no stops made to pick up a missing body part. Please don't try and pet the Methos, he's likely to bite.
Fandom: HIGHLANDER
Pairing: Duncan/Methos

Why this must be read:
This will be the first of three stories I rec by this author during my turn as the Highlander driver. I've finally decided that if I don't rec the stories I have in mind no one will, hence my volunteering. All of them are too good to not be read. They all rank in my top ten faves for this fandom. Having said that I'll get on with this rec.
A little synopsis to start out with here: In this story Methos witnesses first hand how Immortals enter this world and why they are all orphans. (Nothing to do with the second movie. Think Greek mythology and a variation on Dionysis' birth.) That is just the beginning of this story, however. Methos then has to deal with the fall-out from this miracle he witnessed.
This story will make you forget the origin story in the second movie. After reading it, in my head, this became how Immortals come into this world. It is that good, it totally and completely subverted canon for me. As I mentioned above if you know anything about Dionysis and the myth of his birth you'll have a little clue to where it's going. I honestly can't believe no one had rec'd this story yet. It is what made me want to take a turn here rec'ing Highlander. This story to me is a classic in the fandom and one not to be missed.
