Another HL fanfic idea: And the Down Side to Decapitation Is...?

[ffutures]

I'm probably going to Highlander fanic Hell for this one...

In Futurama you can survive decapitation by having your head put in a jar on life support. It's common to have celebrities appear on TV that way.

What if it was an Immortal that came up with the technology and is using it to offer other Immortals an alternative to permanent death?

The challenge is to write a story on this premise set in the Futurama world. I'd prefer humour for this one, for obvious reasons, any length but it'll probably work best as a short or ficlet.

Well, I can't do it. I know the Futurama 'verse backwards but I stopped watching Highlander after 'The Darkness' (Season 2 episode 4), when Tessa Noël was killed off, and so there's a lot about that 'verse that I don't know.

Fair enough - killing her off wasn't exactly their best move.

Brilliant idea! I would love to see you or someone else do it. I too stopped watching after Tessa died, although I did watch the movies and some episodes later. I have a deep and abiding hatred of Richie Ryan to this day :)

Not my favourite either, though he didn't know he was immortal at that point.

Out of intrest - what is Fanfic hell?

And is there a story in there on it's own......

Good question - probably the hell dimension where they force you to read Harry / Draco slash (written by 13-year olds) all day...
