HL Chronicles Challege Game

[brightknightie]

Just in case you didn't know, the new fest community hl_chronicles/hl_chronicles has launched to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of "The Gathering," the premiere of Highlander: The Series, this fall.  (Yes, 1992 was the GOLDEN AGE of syndicated TV premieres: FK, HL, DS9, B5, just off the top of my head. Yes, those were the days, my friend...)  They have three separate challenges: "Timestamp," "2012 Reboot," and "20 Years: The Immortal View."  Take your pick!  Sign-ups close this Sunday, June 3.  Rhi and Killa are the mods.

I wish I could play!  But I am utterly exhausted, fiendishly over-busy, and, apparently, a little ill.  Also, none of the three challenges are yet clicking with my own personal idiosyncratic view of HL (in which Duncan is the hero, the best characters are the mortals, and "Homeland" was perhaps the last proper episode... I'm weird, I know!).  The challenges seem, sensibly, designed for people with more mainstream views of HL... which means lots and lots of people!  Y'all write; I'll read and reply.  Promise.

:-) Do you read HL fanfic at all? Is there a secret cache out there somewhere, where it's not The Methos and/or Amanda Show? :-)

I jest, of course! There are many wonderful tales! And I don't dislike Methos or Amanda! However, yeah, I personally feel marginalized in my preferences -- for Charlie, Tessa, Rachel; for the early seasons; for Duncan -- for the very simple and valid reason that I'm vastly, categorically, astronomically outnumbered.

But, seriously, I've been looking for well-written Duncan/Tessa for a decade now. If you know of any, or any well-written early-season gen besides Dragonfly's...?

No, haven't really read HL fanfic. I might have read one or two in the past. I might give it a whirl sometime. I enjoyed the show, but I didn't really get involved with the fandom side of things. But in any case, I enjoy the earlier years far more than the latter. I'm shocked that its not in the norm to have that preference. It usually is with most fandoms.
