Title: Hot Pursuit
Author: Rhiannon Shaw (gryphonrhi)
Crossover: due South/Highlander
Characters: Fraser, Diefenbaker, Matthew McCormick
Rating: PG
Length: Short
Why I'm reccing this fic: Rhiannon Shaw is one of the bright lights of the Highlander fandom. This story has Immortal FBI agent Matthew McCormick encountering Fraser and Dief on the streets of Chicago. The outsider perspective (both the character's and the author's) is delightful. Fraser's dialogue with Dief alone makes this fic worth the read.


"Are you crazy?" the woman snapped. "Get the dog off me!"

Dief whined, settled his paws more firmly on her shoulders -- he was leaving a lovely pattern of pawprints on her jacket -- and barked a single sharp note.

Fraser rubbed a thumb along one eyebrow then said patiently, "Yes, I'm quite aware you think we should add resisting arrest, but may I remind you that Lieutenant Welsh cannot authorize you? You can't read them their rights, not to mention the 'Canadian in the States' problem. Are you quite sure Ray wanted you to chase her?"

One quick yip and tail wag answered that to the constable's satisfaction, and Matthew had to admit he'd have taken it for an affirmative himself. He was starting to seriously wonder about loup-garous (which would be no stranger than immortals now that he thought about it), when two pairs of bright eyes focused on him.
