highlander100 Challenge #121, "Headache"
Title: "Not Tonight, Darling..."
Disclaimer: They're not mine. RPD can have the headache too, I'm a giving kinda gal :)
"So, why never another immortal? A commitment thing?" asked Joe one evening, nosy and mellow with good drink and company.
Methos quirked an eyebrow.
"No, not really. It’s a ... well, it’s a sex thing."
Pause.
"See, the Quickenings give me a terrible headache."
"I thought you tried to avoid taking them?"
Eyeroll.
"Not taking them. The buzz. The more intense emotions involved, the worse it gets. Another immortal nearby gives me a mild headache, alcohol ... ameliorates it. Anything more passionate - a wracking migraine. Unless I’m dead drunk, in which case ... how well do you get it up when totally pissed?"

(and we won't mention the couch and the bed and living in MacLeod's space, well, unless we wanna call him a masochist. Which he is, likely, anyway, only I wouldn't go telling that to the face of a guy with a .44 in his pocket)
