==Highlander Stories==
===Series===
Syni Molniya -- It's the oldest tale I know, that of the syni molniya. It stretches back to the beginnings of our family, our world; forward to time immemorial. The long-lived ones, who look just like any other unless you cut them, who walk the world with wary eyes and call the lightning from clear skies. Like the other tales of my childhood, I never doubted its truth. (Quickening Lyric Wheel story.)
At The Root Of The World Tree -- Duncan MacLeod had Connor. Connor MacLeod had Ramirez. What if an immortal had... no one? And nothing to go on but old stories and legends... and the immortals who found him? Who'd go looking then? (Follows on from Syni Molniya.)
The Cycles of Eternity, by Cassidy
The Road Through, by tarsh -- Cassidy wrote a wonderful Methos story, "The Cycles of Eternity," and in doing so saddled me with a Duncanmuse(-that-isn't), who promptly gave forth with his side of the story in "The Road Through." We then infected Omega, who wrote a poem, "Destiny," in response to our stories.
Destiny, by Omega
===Free-standing Stories===
All The World's A Stage -- This is the story I actually intended to write for Rhi's alphabet challenge. Amanda, Matt McCormick, and a police station. Act II coming soon -- nag tarsh if it's not updated by 1 Oct, 2005.
Amanda -- NEW -- a drabble, from Methos' POV, on why he should know better....
Compromising Positions, rated NC-17 -- How much mischief can Methos get into before Duncan takes him in, uh, hand...
Consequences -- Methos deals with the consequences of his actions.
Full of Sound and Fury, Signifying Nothing -- Rhi issued an alphabet challenge. This story forced itself onto my harddrive. It's depressing. Sorry.

Time -- NEW -- Methos' POV on the elemental nature of that beast, time.
Tricks of the Trade -- NEW -- There are reasons Joe Dawson's a damn good Watcher, and he wishes more of the new Watchers would think about them.
The Truth About The Horsemen, R rated at the beginning -- Exactly what it says. No, really.
What Might Have Been -- After Ahriman is defeated, Methos has to deal with emotions stirred up by MacLeod's return to Paris. Angsty above and beyond.

Sometimes -- NEW -- The future's never certain, and the futures possible for Mulder and Krycek waver in and out of Sight.

===Stargate SG-1 Stories===
Frying Pans and Fire, rated NC-17 -- Some days, it just doesn't pay to get out of bed.... Rae has writer's block again. What I want to know is: why is it every time Rae gets writer's block, I end up with muses threatening terrible vengeance?
lost -- Sometimes, there is no room left for comfort.... Very short, and very painful.
