Summary:
Villain is the more enjoyable role
---
Die a hero, Methos had recommended with a wry smile and a tilt of his glass what seems a lifetime ago. Die a hero, he thinks again, and separates MacLeod's head from his neck. The corollary holds true. Duncan will never live long enough to become a villain. Methos has taken on that role more times than he can count, although sometimes he pretends to be a hero - or a legend - in between his heel turns. He doesn't mind. Villain is the more enjoyable role; there are fewer constraints on one acting outside the bounds of law, or common decency.
