eeeee I love crossover fic :)

Darn, I got rid of my Duncan icon :(

[phoebesmum]

Thank you!

I only have one Methos and one Merlin icon. I was torn which one to use when I posted the fic.

...Dude. AWESOME. That's just unutterably perfect, as a crossover between these two fandoms! I find the Horsemen just fascinating, and you'v woven them in here so well.

[phoebesmum]

Thank you very much! It wasn't originally meant to be a crossover - the Horsemen just kind of happened. As they do. I'm glad you liked it, and many thanks for commenting.

Merlin and Highlander are my current favourite obsessions and I love that you've somehow crossed them both over in such a believable way. This was just so thoroughly enjoyable

[phoebesmum]

Those are both excellent obsessions to have. I'm glad that you enjoyed this - thank you so much for commenting.

You already know what I think, but I'll say it in brief again.
AWESOMELY WONDERFUL!!!!!!

[phoebesmum]

Well, I can never hear 'awesomely wonderful' enough times, so thank you! I'm very glad you enjoyed it.

For Christmas: a book token.

That was cool. I liked the idea that Merlin was immortal and with such power, too. Great job on the plot and descriptions.

[phoebesmum]

Thank you! I think I've always thought of Merlin (the character in general, that is) as being immortal, and making him an Immortal kind of came naturally from there.

I'm glad you enjoyed this, and thank you for commenting.
