Storm Surge (XF/Highlander)

[alysswolf]

Storm SurgeHis AD is trying to drive him to quit, he's dreaming while he's awake, he has a case which refuses to be normal, and Agent Matthew McCormick, an old friend from Quantico, may not be what he seems. It's not shaping up to be one of Mulder's better months. This is the latest story set in an alternate universe within Rhi's Highlander

*squeeeeeeee!!!!!*

oh, I am *so excited* to read this story!!!

It's probably going to have to wait until my upcoming Very Long Plane Rides, but I wanted to let you know now about my enormous amounts of anticipatory squee. ;-)

Hope you enjoy it. ::grin:: Good luck on the Very Long Plane Rides.

Y'know, I'm supposed to be packing for the remodel, not spending 3 plus hours reading a new story. But I couldn't stop myself.

Great work as always. I love the notion of Mulder and McCormick working together and can hardly wait to see the next story in this series.

BTW, I did spot one typo -- "In a quiet voice that somehow pierced the sounds of fire and combat, Adler started reciting wrods in an odd, atonal voice." I'm guessing you meant 'words'.

Now I'm just going to have to reread the whole series again...

Thanks for the hours of enjoyment.

PS. I love 'Adler' and hope you'll write him again!

There's always one typo that manages to elude everyone. ::grin:: It's fixed now -- thanks for catching it.

Glad you enjoyed the story -- hope your packing is going smoothly. This story has been driving me nuts for months now. I blame Rhi for giving me a McCormick muse. Knowing Adler, he'll show back up one way or another.

Nice! I especially loved some of the imagery, such as the glare that would shrivel crab grass! LOL

There were a couple of typos I noticed, but the only one I can find right now is "McCormick hope Skinner was right". The others were similarly minor.

The only thing that gave me any real problems was that I sometimes had trouble tracking who was talking during the scenes with Mulder, McCormick, and Adler. When there were only two men in the scene it wasn't usually an issue, but there were a few times when throwing in the third speaker made it hard to know who was talking until after they'd finished.

I loved Adler -- very good, both on the concept and on the execution!

I also loved the story line! Things like this are why I still say that yours have always been some of the most interesting and fun Dungeons to play in!

Good work, and congratulations on finishing it!

wow! I really enjoyed that.
I will be quite happy when there is more.

thanks

I read it yesterday, and today I am catching up on the stories that I missed and rereading some of the old favorates.
