I committed to 12 stories of at least 500 words apiece, aiming for 1000 words, and succeeded in writing and posting 15 stories meeting that - 5 between 500 - 1000, 10 at 1000+.
Fandoms are: Highlander; CS Friedman - Coldfire; CJ Cherryh - Cyteen; Patricia McKillip - Song for the Basilisk; and Elizabeth Bear & Sarah Monette - A Companion to Wolves

Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 17700
Summary: What if escaping is the easy part?
Warnings, if any: No sex. Pre-slash. Disturbing themes. Original characters advancing the storyline. Do any of these really need to be warned for?
Author's Notes: Tes' request was for Duncan/Methos slash or gen, "First time stories. Action, drama and plot. Hurt/comfort." There's a real element of challenge in plausibly damaging an Immortal. I hope I rose to the occasion.
This story would not have gotten written without the encouragement, brainstorming, hand-holding, commentary and detailed nit-picking of
reshcat" and
auberus.
