Description:

In which I take a Highlander alternate universe (based on the Opportunities song vid by Killa and Lapillus) and in several cases add Marvel characters. Have fun, I certainly did! (Now with series timeline. Gods help me.)

Notes:

Opportunities Timeline

I do not believe I had to do this... Oh, wait. Yeah, I do. Anyway. Here it is for reference; it's also in the notes on the AO3 series page. Movies are in italics; stories in the series are in quotes. * after the story means HL characters only.

A very, very rough timeline:

Late April/early May, 1945 -- Captain America goes into the ocean -- Captain America: The First Avenger.

June, 1951 -- Winter Soldier tries to kill Duncan MacLeod -- "Mismatched Pieces"

1956 -- Natasha & Methos meet in Bora Bora -- "Whispered on the Winds, ch. 1"

19?? -- Natasha & Amanda meet -- Mentioned in "Whispered on the Winds" (Someone write this, please!)

1973 -- Natasha & Methos meet in Brazil -- "Whispered on the Winds, ch.2"

1987 -- Natasha & Methos meet in China/Bhutan -- "Whispered on the Winds, ch. 3"

2008 -- Tony Stark becomes Iron Man -- Iron Man (first movie)

2008 -- Natasha, Clint, & Methos meet in Afghanistan -- "Whispered on the Winds, ch. 4"

2010 -- Tony, Pepper, & Natasha meet; problem at the Monaco race -- Iron Man II

Februrary 2012 -- Captain America is found -- Captain America: The First Avenger

March, 2012 -- Natasha & Methos meet in London -- "Whispered on the Winds, ch. 5"

Early April, 2012 -- Matthew and Duncan run into Winter Soldier who's now off his leash -- "Mismatched Pieces"

Mid April, 2012 -- A lot of trouble & a lot of redheads -- "Ransom of the Red-Headed League" (in progress; teaser available here, although a few details have since changed)

May, 2012 -- Restoring the Stone of Scone before Diamond Jubilee -- "Sticks and Stones" *

Late May/June, 2012 -- Connor and a lot of civilians help hold off the Chitauri during Avengers -- "Can't Get Behind the Lines When It's a Cluster(F*ck)"

?, 2012 -- Sometime after the Battle of Manhattan, Rich Ryan kills an immortal mage and runs into Kronos -- "Throws Me To The Ground" *

Yes, this raises the question of whether Sean Burns is working for SHIELD by the time of the Battle of Manhattan. I honestly don't know, and I'd better figure it out!

(And I'm seriously debating sticking several of my OCs over here, folks, so pro and con comments on that welcome at my DW. Please leave a name if commenting without an ID.)
