HL Fanfic: "Present Company"
This is the Highlander story that I wrote for the Summer 2010 Oldschoolfic event. My thanks to Karrenia_rune for the prompt, and to
batdina for the beta-reading. (As always, constructive criticism is welcome.)
I'd never written Charlie DeSalvo before, and I'm not sure that I'd ever read a story from Charlie's perspective, either. When I looked for screenshots from which to make an icon to go with this story on the ficathon, I found only half a dozen unique images of Charlie on the entire Internet. It's curious. He really is a significant character, if not as significant as some.
• Title: "Present Company" (also on AO3) • Length: ~2,900 words • Date: July 2010 • Rating: PG • Characters: Starring Charlie. Also with Richie, Randi, Duncan and Joe. • Summary: Charlie has a lot on his mind when Duncan finally returns to Seacouver. • Quotation: "Charlie thought again about legitimate reasons that a stranger might have popped up like this -- and about how very little he wanted to end up charged with assault -- but the weight in the man's right hand inside his pocket skewed the odds."
