"We'll be back," Methos says. He looks more than a little chastened, and Fitz can see Joe Dawson scowling behind him, arms folded in impatience.

"What's happening?" Fitz asks, because he can tell Duncan is dying to ask himself, but doesn't consider it good manners.

"Watcher business," Dawson says gruffly, and jerks a thumb over his shoulder. " ( Read more... )

This is so much fun!

I love the description of Amanda as a hurricane the pouts and steals your valuables. Methos's word picture of MacLeod walking through Parisian alleyways ringing a little bell and calling out, "Dawson! Here boy!" The way that both Fitz and Amanda seem to believe it's their mission in life to cheer up the people around them. Joe being able to get away with ordering "Adam" around in a way no one else can. Joe's final line about the whole goddamned circus.

This line sounded a little off, to me: He's not as stupid as he looks, I just don't see any negative self-talk or concept anywhere in Fitz, even as a joke.

thank you! and thank you for noticing that line, too. :)

Yeah, our boy Fitz definitely has some healthy self-esteem. :-)

I love seeing him with Methos - something we really missed out on in the show.

The character interaction is just *sweet* and I can hear all the voices bell-clear. Fitz really adds some new fizz to this episode in AU. I have to say I prefer my Fitz's alive and full of cheery snark! And Domineering!Joe is making me grin...

I am loving this so much - your characterization is perfect! *♥s Fitz* I can't wait for the next installment. :D

You don't know me, but I just read this piece over at fanfiction.net, and came over here to tell you how much I adored it. You've got Fitz's voice perfectly, and I love how Methos has a more sinister edge in this than in the episode because Fitz wasn't the person he was expecting. And it is so wonderfully funny.

This really cheered me up after a long day, and I hope you continue the story!

Thank you so much!

I am planning on continuing it -- unfortunately, Methos is being terribly uncooperative.
