HL/AB:VH crossover -- chapter four

[auberus]

I?  Hate. Cleveland.

Seriously.  After the day I've had, I am *more* than willing to believe that Joss was right.  Demonic activity would go a long way towards explaining some of the people I had the joy of dealing with this afternoon.  Plus?  Have you tried to find a five-star hotel in Cleveland - or for that matter anywhere in the Midwest during

...and thanks to my insomnia, you get an almost instant reply!

Methos surprised me more than a little bit as I wrote this -- I wasn't expecting him to be quite so dark. The bit you mentioned pretty much wrote itself, and startled me when I re-read it.

Thanks so much for the feedback! I'm glad you're enjoying the fic.

It wasn't so much that *he* surprised me, I suppose, as it was that I surprised myself.

That's an interesting way of looking at Methos. I agree with you about the limitlessness of his darkness -- I don't think there's anything he wouldn't do, under the right circumstances -- but at the same time, there's a very solid core to him that is very much connected to the people and places around him.

Have you ever read Sylvia Volk's fic? I cannot recommend her enough. Historical detail, and one of the most deeply fascinating takes on Methos that I've ever encountered. Pen and Sword is one of the stand-outs -- though they're all unbelievably good -- if you haven't read it, you should.

Hi - thanks for the read. As enjoyable as ever.

[auberus]

Thank you!

Awesome. I'm loving this story so much! I really enjoyed the interplay between Methos and JC. And Anita is her usual self, which is a compliment to your writing, if not to the character. *grins*

I'm unberably curious now about the Horsemen and what they did to the vampires. Am I missing something? Or is there more of this tale to be told in future chapters? *hopeful*

[auberus]

Thank you! I'm glad you're still enjoying it.

As far as the Horsemen and vampires go, it'll more than likely end up getting touched on in future chapters. :)

Awesome addition! I love your darker take on Methos, and the reasons behind the Horsemen's work. The little bit about Byron having them around was interesting as well.

[auberus]

Thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying it. :)

Yay continuation!! Absolutely brilliant of course. Can't wait to see what happens if Methos gets ticked off at some point. :-)
