Title: Setting Down the Lines
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Merlin/Arthur
Word count: 2,606
Warnings: Future fic, but of the entirely fluffy and non-angsty variety
Spoilers: None
Summary: In which Arthur hates stairs, Merlin threatens mutiny and they're both going to be a bit late for the feast.
A/N: Written for nilsi_pilsifan as part of the pay it forward meme. Hope you like it ♥

( fluffity fluff fluff )

*jumps merrily on the bandwagon* Write 10 different categories of fic, each in 10 words or less.

( All Merlin-related; various pairings )


In other news I'm (slowly) working on fic for the pay it forward meme and I should hopefully have something to post for tomorrow. Also I decided to treat myself to a paid account for my birthday. This may or may not have been motivated largely by my desire for moar pretty icons ;p

Title: Whisper on the Wind
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Merlin/Arthur
Warnings: future fic
Spoilers: Vague spoilers for 1x11, 'The Moment of Truth' and 1x08, 'The Beginning of the End'
Summary: Merlin is ever brought full circle back to Ealdor
A/N: This grew out of an entry for merlin_las because there was no way I could fit the story I wanted to tell into 750 words. The prompt was 'Merlin in Ealdor'. A gigantic round of thanks to syllic and kelene for their excellent beta jobs and as a sidenote, to avert any confusion now, the Avalon mentioned herein refers to the version from 1x07, 'The Gates of Avalon' rather than the Isle-of-the-Blessed, linked-to-the-old-magic' version of traditional legend.

Title: Black Tide At Midnight
Rating: PG
Pairing: None, gen
Warnings: None
Spoilers: 1x08 'The Beginning of the End
Summary: Mordred calls to him all through the night but Merlin does not break
A/N: Last week's merlin_las entry, with the prompt being to write an AU. Naturally I didn't think about writing fluffy modern Merlin/Arthur AU. Oh no, I thought 'I know, what a perfect excuse to try my hand at creepy angsty gen!' *facepalm*

 

( Strangely enough I really like writing about Mordred )

Actually this isn't any of the things I said I would write, but I found it lying around half-finished on my hard drive gathering dust and I thought 'why not - I can actually finish this tonight and feel all productive and crap', so here we are.

Title: Wounded In The Line Of Duty
Rating: NC-17
Pairing: Merlin/Arthur
Warnings: None
Spoilers: None
Summary: Arthur returns from months away at war and Merlin is very pleased to see him, if you know what I mean - shameless PWP is utterly shameless.
A/N: Originally this was going to be for the kink meme for the bruises prompt, but then it kind of grew and mutated on me, so it ended up here instead.

( And now I bring teh pron )

Title: Questions Better Left Unanswered
Rating: G
Pairing: Merlin/Arthur preslash
Spoilers: Coda to 1x13, so heavy spoilers for that ep
Summary: Arthur's full of questions, but Merlin isn't ready, not yet.
A/N: Written for scifijunkie's birthday (HAPPY BIRTHDAY btw!). This might not be quite what you wanted but I hope you like it anyway!

Title: I Promise You This
Rating: PG
Pairing: None, gen. Tiny hints at Merlin/Arthur if you want it.
Warnings: None
Spoilers: Heavy spoilers for 1x13
Summary: They had every chance to heed the omens; they did not, and this is only the beginning.
A/N: So the finale kind of grabbed me round the throat and refused to let go until I submitted to its whims and wrote about a million character studies. What was originally meant to be a series of snapshots from that ep turned into this. IDEK, don't ask me.

 

( strange gen of strangeness below )

CURSES, JUST SHY OF YOUR BIRTHDAY DAMMIT!
*cough* Anyway, this was written for the amazingly kickass doomcanary since it, well was her birthday 20 minutes ago *facepalm*. She asked for Arthur giving Merlin a present (that was not sex, ahahaha, I love that you had to specify that) so I hope this works for you!

Title: Ownership
Rating: R, I suppose
Pairing: Merlin/Arthur
Warnings: None, just sap I guess
Spoilers: None

Summary: Merlin has never been cold in his life, but now that all changes.
A/N: Okay so this is definitely not my best, but I've been feeling really stalled and I needed to get something out. This is the result.

 

( Read more... )

Okay first of all RL has been whipping me in a serious way recently but finally that should be over and I will have time to stop neglecting my f-list horribly. I also have a large backlog of comments to reply to from nearly a week ago *wince* so apologies to everyone I haven't replied to - I will get there! Soon!

Secondly a gigantic thank you to anyone who nominated some of my fics over at the Merlin/Arthur fic awards! You guys rock ♥ For anyone who doesn't already know about the awards definitely check it out - there are loads of incredibly awesome fics up for voting and it doubles as a convenient recs list :p

Thirdly (ahahaha I promised fic and then go on and on without delivering) glitterandlube is arranging a sort of Merlin big bang type challenge thing (to put it eloquently) which I've signed on for and which should be awesome, so I urge everyone to consider giving it a go.

Finally I've read barely any fic for the last three weeks and I'm suffering withdrawl: f-list, I appeal to you, help a fangirl out and point me in the direction of some of your recent faves? Pretty please?

Right, that's the pleading and pimping over with, so now I give you my most recent merlin_las entry (which won! \o/)

Spoilers: Brief references to 'The Gates of Avalon' and 'The Moment of Truth'

Wooo, it's the first day of merlinadvent ! What better way to make the countdown to Christmas than with fic, lots and lots of fic! This would be my contribution to the first day. I have vague plans to try and get something up for each day, but likely I will fail miserably, so we'll see how it goes...

Rating: NC-17
