Title: Gender Perceptions of the Psychotic Mind in the Bronze Age
Fandom: Highlander
Characters: Caspian
Warning: Caspian
Prompt: "the heart of a woman" off creativewriter



Caspian had fallen in love once, with a mortal woman, back when he was almost as young as she was. Her face was pink, her eyes bluer than the mountain lake, and her hair yellow like the crops. She was different than the others, but he didn't know what it was that made her so.

The heart of a woman is inscrutable; she is mystery to man. Caspian did not know how to unlock this box, how to read through this enigma. He did not know how to capture her heart and lure her after him. She married another, and with him she died, grey and old, after many mortal years.

A thousand years later, Caspian is still ripping open through chests, tearing out hearts, slicing them in half and trying to find the hidden secret, the way to a woman's heart.
