There's something about lightning that evokes an almost primal fear and awe in me. I knows now that its just a short electrical discharge of high voltage between clouds or clouds and the ground, there is just something about it that makes me just want to stop.

If you could create a perfect world, what would it be?

My definition of a perfect world changes every day. I wouldn't want to make any drastic changes, since what's the point? Given enough time, everything will change anyway. I enjoy watching those changes unfold.

Methos dismounted as he arrived in camp. His horse was in need of rub and cooling down, but he really didn't have time for it. Not now, maybe after he'd spoken to the others, he'd see to it. For now, he handed the reins off to the nearest slave and made it clear that the horse was to be taken care of and if anything that happened to it then the slave would be severely punished. A few more steps deeper into the camp and he could feel his brothers' quickenings. Both Silas and Caspian stepped out of their tents, ax and sword at the ready, just in case some idiot had managed to make their way in. They relaxed slightly upon seeing Methos, but they could read the tension in Methos' body and knew something was happening. The quickest way fo them to find out what was going on was to follow Methos to Kronos' tent.

I stopped dreaming a long time ago. I'm too old for it. What's the point? I've done just about everything there is to do, besides work in fast food. It would take far more than they are willing to pay me to get me to work there, a nice restaurant maybe, but not fast food.

((locked to those that know of immortals, OOC/meta comments welcomed))

It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not. - Andre Gide

Those words were certainly said by someone who can only die once and probably said by someone who has nothing to hide. I remember a time long ago, I was in love with a beautiful woman by the name of Delphina. She was beautiful, her father was one of the priests in local sect. At the time, I was a merchant, a very successful one. Her father had already approved of our marriage. It had taken years of courting and gaining influence for it to happen, but we were to be wed.

Then some ingrate attempted to rob me by killing me. I died in Delphina's arms, she weeped for me as life slipped away. I woke up as her father was pulling me out of her arms.

In that moment, their love and affection toward me turned into hatred and fear. They cursed me, called me a demon among other things. They took me captive and tried to find a way to kill me. I don't know how long it took for me to escape.

Once I did, I was foolish enough to go back and try to explain to Delphina what I was, that I wasn't evil. She wanted nothing to do with me anymore. I would have taken her away, showed her riches that she could have only dreamed of all she had to do was accept my immortality.

Instead she attempted to send me back to my tormentors. If I wasn't as quick as I was, I would have been caught. It reminded me that I had do everything I can to keep my immortality a secret.
