Rebecca Horne fic list

[gryphonrhi]

Rebecca Horne fic:
(i.e., Highlander fic)

Please note, this is not a 'recs list' per se; this is simply a list of all the fic we could find with Rebecca Horne in it. It includes one WIP, which is warned for. The story titles include summaries where the author had them and links to AO3 and/or HLFiction where possible. If it has a warning of NB, the story is an unfinished fic, but that warning is given by specific stories.

If you have links for me to add, LJ or DW IDs to add or correct, better URLs, or what have you, please drop a reply and I'll update this periodically! Especially if you have Fanfiction.net fic; I'm almost scared to wade in there, sorry. This list will be listed in in my links list on both DW and LJ.

First the canon data on Rebecca (from the Watcher CD):  She was born somewhere around 1200 BCE in Mycenae. At the age of 35, she became Immortal after being killed by a jealous slave.  The only students we know about are Amanda, Luther (who killed Rebecca and, he claimed, her other students for their pieces of the Methuselah Stone), and Henri Valjean (whom I don't remember seeing in the show).  She died in 1994, killed by Luther who said he'd kill her husband if she didn't surrender.  Student of Aganesthes of Tiryns (never seen in the show).

Many thanks to

Fanlass Drunken Tales -- A Story of Love and Loss
Summary: The story takes place when Macleod, Joe, Richie, Methos and Amanda are gathered at the annual Memorial Toast for Rebecca, on April 23, the anniversary of when she died.

MacLeod shows up with a guest, Ceirdwyn. She and Methos tell a story of long ago while they are drinking heavily. The tale takes place by why of flashbacks mostly in the year 805 AD, in the part of the world that eventually became known as France. It’s a story of adventure and how true love can triumph even among meddling Immortals and bumbling mistakes. This story flips back and forth between the present and the past with both Ceirdwyn and Methos both telling the story. See Darius, Marcus Constantine, Ceirdwyn, Rebecca and Methos deal with political intrigue back in the Dark Age France.

It’s just an old love story where everything that possibly can go wrong in the past and in the present, doses. And asks the question can love still triumph despite all adversity?
