Methos in The Source
I stand ready to repress all knowledge of this movie, as I have several other Highlander films and quite a few episodes
but PW is very, very pretty.

Getting more so as he ages
though that whole 'Immortal' thing is harder to sell in that context.

Men with swords = yaays.

PW with a sword to his neck = kinky yaays.



He really needs to be on Torchwood.
And by 'Torchwood' I mean 'Captain Jack'
and by 'Jack' I mean 'naked'




Having said 'pretty' you might want to ignore the glasses, the helmet, and the fringes on the coat. Leather good, but random stringy bits not so much.

His sword is pretty too. There's close ups.

So, today's bunny is for Highlander.
... yeah, somewhat of a surprise.

But anyways, today's bunny is, how to out Immortals.

Because it's not as easy as it sounds. I mean, I wrote an article for Fortean Times with a whole bunch of TCBOO incidents in the news, and they re-edited it to look like I was saying Immortals are real, and yet? Still nobody believes it.

So what would it take?

Read more... )

On pondering, I have a bit of a motive:

There are many reasons to kill somebody. 'To keep a secret' is not a good one.

So, if someone was killing for that reason... what would our Heroes do?

Because there's two ways to stop that being an issue. Kill the killer... which might not be possible if we're talking an entire organisation. Or... tell the secret.

Nothing to protect, then.


So now the bunny has Methos visiting an art historian who has a trunk full of finds pulled out of the rubble of an old pub currently being demolished in Norwich. That puts them in the right building. Methos of course has bits of paper proving he has some relevant expertise, maybe in linguistics. Say the trunk was opened upside down, and the oldest things are what they find first. Sumerian clay tablets. Egyptian papyrus. And Methos, of course, can read them. So we get flashbacks, which as far as the art historian is concerned are just stories he's translating, but which the viewer gets as flashbacks. And gradually, along with the newbie, the viewer gets to figure out it isn't just him identifying with the historical figures in the texts - he really *is* that guy. Find out at the top of the trunk, with the daguerotypes (sp?).

Why would Methos tell the truth? Maybe the art historian is hot. Or maybe he's trying to recruit a new Watcher. Either way, hell of a lot easier than trying to cover up a find that's already been photographed and in the newspapers and such.

Unfortunately, there's other Immortals who can read whatever got in the papers, and one of them thinks that killing to keep the secret is of the good. This leads to tragic stabbing outside the building, and big Quickening.

It doesn't lead to all Immortals being outed. But it does give Methos a chance to state his attitude about cover ups. Spin good, stabbing bad. He really really means it, in the sharp edges way.

So *then* something else has to happen that puts the secret at risk... the police investigation. Methos can't/doesn't get to the artefacts to hide them, including the photos. And he was found standing over two dead bodies. There's going to be one hell of an investigation.

So if someone wants to cover up? They'd have to get rid of police.

Lots of people going to object to that idea.

... I think this bunny has more of the necessary parts now. Yup.

Five thousand years alive.
One thousand with brothers, as a horseman.
Four thousand alone.
Immortals stay in one place maybe 10 years unnoticed.
Double that, perhaps, if they love that life enough to risk the questions.
Two hundred different lives.
Married sixty eight times.
One hundred thirty two without a wife.
One life with Byron, once a slave, once a doctor treating them. Then the Watchers, befriending, or being.
One hundred twenty seven without a trace.
Untold teachers, students, lovers, friends, mortal and Immortal...
In the dojo, back away and tell her, "You don't know me."
Hundreds of times true.

Vibration No 9:
You are a very peculiar couple. Read more... ) It is important that you take up some activity together, like dancing, or a sport.

Or magic?
Okay, I was going to say this one makes me a believer, but then theres the 'both love order' part. Maybe Ethan would love an orderly home, nice cosy place to go back to. But I'm thinking it would be orderly in that 'I know where it is' way that makes sense to no outside observer.
Aside from that I think that one actually works.
cool :)

this is kinda fun. watch me sit here all day putting names through it...

edit to add- I put in Rupert Giles and Buffy Summers, and it says "You both have a tendency to sacrifice yourselves for the sake others".
okay, this so works.
