comes a horseman

so this saturday when i was chauffeuring the injured dad we went to the Levittown library rather than the Yardley branch because Levittown has a much better video and dvd collection. and amidst that video collection were some highlander videos including one containing Comes a Horseman and Revelations 6:8, which coincidentally enough were going to be shown on Monday and Tuesday of this week the last time i checked. i decided to get the video anyway so that i could see them in their uncut glory with no commercials and it turns out it's good i did because Spike changed their schedule for a Joe Shmoe 2 marathon so they're skipping Revelations and The Ransom of Richard Redstone (which unfortunately, there was not a tape for). anyway i saw Comes a Horseman last night (hence this entry's title) and tonight i'll see another episode of methosy goodness (including the double quickening that even Peter Wingfield thinks is gay). so now on to the hoyay experience: Duncan thinks Methos has a nice smile. the degree of betrayedness that Duncan achieves is much more like that of a lover than that of a friend. i mean, it's one thing to find out that your friend used to be a murdering psychopath, quite another to find your true love was one. and even the way Methos was reacting: he knew that Macleod wouldn't like it and was all upset about the possibility of him finding out and when they're slamming each other up against the car? damn. also i love how Joe Dawson is just so loyal and at first won't even believe that Methos would do such a thing and he's all "Our Methos?" (and granted, this could be interpreted as an actual question considering that the episode with the fake Methos is only a few eps earlier, but not the way Joe says it or even the context he says it in... he's totally saying that Methos is theirs cuz they love him). and even once Joe Dawson believes he's still all 'people change' and 'it was thousands of years ago' and blah blah blah Joe and Methos sitting in a tree cakes. so even if Duncan wants to be all high and mighty, Methos will still have Joe to love him.

yes, yes i do. but that is irrelevant to the fact that Duncan chose Methos over Cassandra. and i think Cassandra might be more annoying than Amanda, which is pretty difficult to pull off. but when she and Duncan are together they are so chemistryless. it's sorta gross. and they're supposed to be the couple! and yet when Duncan is with Methos it's just so
M: I want you
D: I want you more
M: Joe won't mind if we have a private rendezvous while he's in the states
D: What he doesn't know can't hurt him
M: Hypocrite
(i think you can figure out what happens next)
and yeah, the double quickening? orgasmic climax anyone? yeesh. not that i'm complaining or anything.
and maybe the chemistry between Duncan and Methos is just that Peter Wingfield would have chemistry with a rock (hey he managed to eke some out of Cassandra), but then how do you explain the Duncan/Joe, Duncan/Richie, Duncan/Joe/Richie pairings? or orgies as the case may be. yeah. i'm gonna stop now. but not without a 1...2...3... 123
