New ADAM & JOE fic! “Challenges” & "The End of Time"(Highlander: The Series, Methos/Joe, Explicit)
It’s done! It’s done! At long, long last! *bounces up and down excitedly*
As I told my wonderful beta Liz_Mo, I feel like I’ve finally given birth to a kid I’ve been carrying for the last six years. :) Ohmygod, you guys. You have no idea just how hard these stories were to write, how many things in my RL conspired to prevent them, and how many times I was just tempted to give up on them altogether. The fact that they are done and finally ready to share is just…guh. Completely blows my mind.
These are the final two Adam and Joe stories. They are complete and posted in their entirety on AO3.
Title: Challenges
Word count: 64,000

Title: The End of Time
Word Count: 162,000
Summary: Dr. Millicent Alphonso has left everyone and everything she knew to begin her life again, living with Methos and Joe in their secluded island home. While she knows in her heart it was the right decision, being a mortal in an Immortal world is full of challenges Milly never expected-challenges with a small c, thank goodness, at least so far. But when Duncan MacLeod arrives on the island bearing a 14th century manuscript penned by the long-dead Immortal Kahvin, it quickly becomes obvious that Milly’s is not the only life that has been irrevocably altered. The nature of Immortality itself is about to change for good.
