fans of highlander the series?

this is a long shot, but since the vast majority of seventh dimension archive did not make it to the wayback machine, idk what else to try. decades ago i saved a ton of fic to my hard drive and i can't be the only one. i'm looking for any backups of seventh dimension, but specifically fics by kat parsons and dina heredia. and the hl fanfic season, which wasn't on seventh dimension but yeah

thank you in advance! i will absolutely share what i have in return

Okay, who in the Highlander fandom was going to tell me there was a “Highlander: the Series” based opera?

[movie--posters]

I got a friend watching Beyond Belief, I'm watching Highlander with her husband while rewatching Buffy by myself, another friend is watching Murder she Wrote and another is watching X-Files and yet another is watching Star Trek: Voyager. Everyone I know is watching shit from or that started or aired in the 90's. No matter who's house I go to it's 90's time. Are we nostalgic or did TV peak?

You have favorite shows you want all your friends to watch. They have shows they want all their friends to watch. Would you be willing to watch a new show in order to get someone to watch something you love?

Sword gays showdown, round 1, bracket three

Propaganda:

For Wonder Woman:

THE sword bisexual ever

For Methos:

5000 year old man that spent the entire show teasing Duncan so badly and had so much UST that the whole of the show had to be recut, his role expanded from a oneshot to being a central reccuring character for the rest of the show and he was given a wife side plot... which even in the 90s the show couldn't stop the gay subtext from taking over. To the point it was often bandied as the Male Equivalent to Xena.

He keeps it cute while threatening Ron Perlman with a sword. He disarms the main character by asking to look at his sword while widening his eyes. He used to hang out with Byron.

Summary:

When the Winchesters come up against a strange case, Castiel offers to get help from an old friend.

This friend admits to not knowing much about the myths and lore of the probable monster, but he has another friend who does.

When they met up, Dean manages to almost instantly get on the wrong side of this guy, one Duncan MacLeod. Normally no biggie, but Duncan wields a katana, and claims to be Immortal…

Will Dean lose his head or will he be able to talk the Highlander into helping them?

Note: I tried two different art styles, which is why they look different.

P.S. I’ve never done shadows before.

this took a hundred years because i started rereading everything lmao

in case of emergency by @amindamazed

elementary. A is the foremost scholar of joan and sherlock characterization and this is my favorite example.

That Burns a Building Down by embroiderama

white collar. neal's custody is taken over by beau bridges, who takes him to dc, cuts him off from pretty much any contact with the outside world, and makes him live in his furnished basement under constant threat of prison if he ever steps out of line. i first read this during lockdown and it was so unbelievably cathartic.

a safe way home by jojo

magnificent seven the series. it's about an assault and the aftermath. this author took wild, unexpected swings with characterization and dialogue that i've never seen anywhere else, while retaining what drew me about the source material (found family amongst seven dickheads).

crossroads by mitzi

magnificent seven the series. this baby can fit so much presumed dead in it, you have no idea. half the group spends most of the 300k story thinking the other half is dead and that it's sorta their fault and it's so good.

snake in the grass by nottasha

magnificent seven the series. it's just pure unadulterated whump.

across by affinity8

highlander the series. so highlander the movie was like there's these dudes with swords who can live forever if they don't get their heads cut off. then the sequel was like they're aliens actually, and are sort of reincarnated with the exact same names and personalities on earth which they don't remember until they do. and everyone hated that. but affinity8 took this unserious bong rip of a plot development, tied it into the most emotionally resonant parts of the show, and then made it make sense. she's a wizard. she also did a series about where immortals come from without the planet zeist which i consider canon.

blind sight by valerie j

x-men comics (i know they're alive and well, but the 90s-00s were a very different beast, shh). iceman joins the thieves guild, gambit becomes the head of the new york city chapter, and then bastion sets off operation zero tolerance, removing everyone's mutant powers. i keep coming back to this because the execution of ozt is intricate and terrifying to multiple pov characters. also the author essentially gave remy daredevil sight (infrared/heat-based, rather than motion or whatever tf matt has) at a time when any weakness could get him and an entire powerless x-team killed.

kinda mooks by kaylee

x-men comics. shortly after gambit was revealed to have been complicit in the morlock massacre and rogue left him to die in antarctica about it, he returned to the team. and that's the point where the author has him begin a relationship with iceman, who by contrast is fully embedded in and trusted by the x-men. this series is just really, really amazing character work and their love story makes me feral.
