auburnnothenna, so awesome, so patient, so generous-has my gratitude beyond measure;
imkalena, who gave wonderful advice and fabulous critique-even though she broke me for a while, the story is much better for every bit of her advice I managed to follow;
gryphonrhi , Highlander beta extraordinaire, and my biggest cheerleader throughout the several years I spent giving birth to this fic-in great part, she's responsible for this thing seeing the light of day (I totally blame her!); and
jimandblair, who looked it over after everyone else, and found clangers everyone else had missed-thanks, Babe!
Rating: Adult/NC-17
Fandom(s): This is a Hawaii Five-0/Highlander crossover, originally written for the Hawaii Five-0 Big Bang,
five0bang . There are cameo appearances from characters in a third, unrelated fandom (you'll know 'em when you see 'em)
Pairing: Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams (minor Duncan/Methos)
Spoilers: Hawaii Five-0: I started writing this thing during Hawaii Five-0's Season One, OMG! This story takes place sometime after Loa Aloha and diverges from there.
Highlander (the Series): The Highlander characters diverge from the end of Season Five, with MacLeod still living in Paris. (Although this story takes place modern-day, and it's probably past time Mac thought about moving on...) There was never a demon, and Richie is still alive. Neither of the two ridiculous post-series movies ever happened, and Connor is still alive too. Nyah nyah, this is fanfiction, so there, PTB!
Warnings: Highlander- (and H50-)level violence, drugged lack of volition
Disclaimer: Hawaii Five-0 and Highlander are both the sole property of their respective creators. I am making no money from this and no infringement is intended.
Author's Note: This is both a crossover, and an AU, since I diverged from the timelines of both shows. For those who are unfamiliar with either show, please see the
Hawaii Five-0 overview and the
Highlander overview.
My fabulous partner in
five0bang,
galadriel34, has posted her artwork
here. Please go admire and give her the adoration she deserves!
Summary: An international terrorist, with an unusual interest in volcanoes, has come to Hawai'i. Immortal FBI Agent Matthew McCormick is on his trail and seeks the help of the Five-0 team-then things get really explosive!
Steve and Danny sure picked a bad time to decide that their flirting might mean something more. And what's with that funny new tattoo on Chin's wrist?
