Why this must be read:
For my last rec as this months Highlander driver I am going to rec my all time favorite fic in this fandom. This is the fic that made me want to take a turn as the recs driver. I just couldn't believe no one had rec'd this amazing fic yet. So I just had to correct that.
This fic is going to be hard to keep track of while writing up this rec. It is an AU, within an AU, within an AU. When you are reading the story it's not that complicated I promise. Bear with me here.
Now you remember the last two episodes of the series To Be and Not to be? The AU world Duncan visited and got to take an It's a Wonderful Life tour with Fitz as his guide? Ok. Well the first story Found and Lost is an AU of that world. In this story Duncan decided to stay a while. See what it was like to be a mortal and not in the game anymore. Well, after doing some stalker-like watching of Methos for a while he decides maybe this alternate life isn't such a good fit anymore. He misses his world and decides to go home. Yeah, I sort of gave that one away, but it's mainly a setup for the next story any way. Not a lot happens in it. So don't fret.
It's the next story Lost that is the one I love so very dearly. This story involves the Methos from that AU world in Found and Lost. He'd noticed Duncan's stalkerish watching of him. Assessed him and wrote him off as a non-Watcher mortal and no threat. None the less he did notice him. So when Duncan leaves he's aware of that too. Well, in this fic Fitz shows up to give Methos an It's a Wonderful Life tour of his own. Not a tour of his own life or what the world would be like without him. No he shows him the life of another Duncan MacLeod. (Yes, this is now AU #3.) He takes him on a tour through AU #3 Duncan's life. The why is central to the whole plot so no way am I giving it away. Let's just say it's a wonderful reason. A reason for Methos to keep going. A promise of a what is to come for him.
I really can't express how much I love this fic. I truly can't. I don't think I've done it justice with this rec. Try as I have. Really just read it. It's wonderful. I love it and hope you will too. Whether you are a fan of AU's or not. Give it a try. It's not to be missed.
Well, that's it for me. It's been fun taking a spin as the Highlander driver for November. I hope the next driver has as much fun as I did. That's it for me.
