New Fic: Jewel (Highlander, Methos & Amanda, Methos & Amanda & Duncan, Gen)

well January has been...interesting. :D

Happy Day Before WeGetRidOfThatAHoleThe Inauguration!

hlh_shortcuts have been revealed! So many great stories, that I am still working my way through. Highlander fans please go check them out! All the stories are fantastic and there's something for everyone.

Now I can link to the story I wrote. For merriman. I love writing for merriman because I get to indulge my love of heists. This story is a little more tender-hearted and bittersweet, but it is a spiritual sibling to A Dance Told in Six Parts.

I have always wondered how Methos and Amanda know each other. When we first see them together in the Finale episodes, we never get an introduction, we don't get a flashback, we don't even see them meeting for the first time. They just know each other, no explanation. This story attempts to answer that question. At least partly. Hope you enjoy!

Thank you to killabeez for the beta! *mwah*

Amanda and Methos's friendship through the years.

***

“Methos,” she said, her voice a whisper. “You did this… for me?”

He tilted his head. “Is that so hard to believe?”

Tears blinded her, and she could only look down at the jewels in her hands, overwhelmed.
