Lastly, some feedback from the Nom/Vote post (in need of warm fuzzies, read below):
Leather Catsuits are distracting at the Round Table during Avenger Team meetings
+ AN AVENGERS FICLET.
OMG. I LOVE IT. It's perfect. Better than I expected. But gosh it's like a tictac (or a Pringle chip). I want more.
LE SIGH.
The meeting had dragged on so long that twice he considered hurling Mjölnir into Merlin's chest just so he'd smash through a wall and the others would chase after him.
LOL. LOOK GUYS. MERLIN'S IN *COUGH* UNEXPECTED TROUBLE. THE HAMMER SLIPPED I TELLS YOU - COMPLETE ACCIDENT... GO SAVE HIM OR WHATEVER. GWEN AND I SHALL STAY BEHIND AND UH...MAN THE SHIP....NO SERIOUSLY. HE CAN'T FLY. SOMEONE SHOULD SAVE HIM.
That's my fav part....but is Merlin Captain America (coughCaptain Englandcough) or is he the Hulk....it's funnier if he's the captain, coz damn that guy gets annoyingly straight-laced.
Ha. I just talked myself into Merlin being C.A and so it is so.
ALSO GWAINE AS IRON MAN. PERFECT. SRLSY. IMAGINARY APPLAUSE FOR YOU ANON.
+ Completely hilarious.
+ What the heck happened with Gwen's zipper LOL? Funny.
+ Maybe its because I love the Avengers and somehow this was merged wonderfully with Merlin characters, and the fact that they matched (Gwaine as Iron Man, heck yes). But I want more.
+ A lot of the fills made me laugh and others seem to be part of much bigger story that need to be continued. This is especially true of Leather Catsuits, because it had Arthur as Thor (?), Gawain as Iron Man and Morgana as Loki- its awsome and I wouldn't mind to see more of it. So this was a lot of fun, can't wait till next time.
Love remains
+ I absolutely loved this!! I really really wish the author would expand it to a full length fic..... I's love to read the whole story. I think it would be awesome ;)
+ Loved, loved this; the love was still palpable between Arthur and Gwen and I loved the way you set it up.
Moments pass us by
+ Such poignancy and quietness in that moment.
+ Missing scenes FTW. (especially S1)
In the eye of the Beloved
+ I love how he thinks everything's just going to be fine when she realises what he's done. She won't be mad at all, Arthur that you've been pretty much paying her to keep her happy.
I need the sequel to this.
Foolish Heart
+ Ah, drabble!angst is my favourite - especially when resolved.
Lavender Notes
+ Romantic truly was the word. Perfect.
+ This was my prompt it was perfect especially the last note.
+ Its just beautiful.
+ Simply sweet, I miss our bumbling crushing on each other bbs.
His name is Dog
+ I like this one but I hesitate to nominate it because I'm not sure how it fits any of the themes...
+ lmao
Still going left
+ This is EXACTLY what I was thinking when I saw the prompt. Well, okay not exactly - it was more like: Someone should WHO this.
The Exhibitionist
+ This one is cute and I especially like Arthur's description of Gwaine.
+ Naked People are just funny- and the image of Arthur carrying an irate Gwen trying to keep Gwaine from seeing her hotness, is funny.
+ One of my favorites. Your dialogue is perfect.
Kismet
+ The drunk calling was funny and Arthur and Gwen geek bonding was adorable.
+ "Threesome?"
*snorts* That's officially my favorite line from this challenge.
Thank you for reminding me Gwaine could be awesome :D
Jenny
+ Jenny sounds cute.
What happens next
+ I may be partial this was my prompt.
Just keep digging
+ This one was hilarious and great and Merlin telling Arthur that Gwen is getting a little tubby because she is pregnant is hilarious because he should have worked that one out!
+ Merlin’s line came out of nowhere and Arthur’s reaction is funny.
Beneficial
+ This one is just awesome! I love the way its written with so much simplicity and yet so much passion and intensity. It was hot!
+ hacha!! if I didn't nominate this one I should have. Its dead sexy and beautiful.
+ It's not a real Mini Challenge until someone writes smut.
General Feedback
+ Every drabble was amazing! Great work everyone!
+ Great entries!
+ Great MC. The prompts were awesome (aussie prompts ftw) and the entries were funny, heart wrenching and fluffy.
I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE REVEALS!!!
