For [livejournal.com profile] 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?"
