FK/HL Fanfic: "An Appointment Unkept" (a New Year's Story)
Again prompted by the season, I'm going to tweak this rolling retrospective out of chronology to bring up my one New Year's fanfiction, "An Appointment Unkept," which is also my one true crossover to date. In this case, the cross is Forever Knight/Highlander. The story is less about those lost than those who miss them.

The depth of the sorrow there shocked him. Carefully controlled, it nevertheless went down, and down, and down, perhaps without end."
