Fic: The Truth Is You, 1/2 (Arthur/Merlin)

Jun 30, 2009 12:06

The Lady Angora was stroking her dinner fork as she went on and on about how lovely Camelot was in spring, and Arthur was at a juncture so desperate that he fleetingly contemplated impaling himself on said fork. The feast to celebrate yet another treaty with yet another kingdom that Arthur was having a difficult time remembering the name ( Read more... )

Oh, this is just as good as I thought it was going to be from the summary! I started melting at “Because you make rising at an ungodly hour more bearable,” and went on from there.

How am I to know what I lie about the most? Um, gee, Arthur, could it be your feelings for Merlin? Honestly, it's a miracle they don't walk into walls, they're so oblivious.

And was the similarity of names (Anhora, Angora) intentional?

Off to read Part 2!

You know, halfway through writing I realized they had similar names, so it was kind of unintentional, which is why I put in the part where Arthur asks if they're related, lol.

Just dropping a line as I pause in my squeeing enough that I have some air left for the next part. Oh my God, I love this fic! Especially Arthur's `truths` (because who doesn't want to hear those?) and Merlin's gleeful or almost resigned reactions. The `charming` conversation was probably my favourite.

Right, squeeing has (mostly) stopped, on to the next part!

Arthur totally is arrogant when it comes to his own abilities, charm, and charisma. Gotta love a confident guy, lol. \o/

You especially have to love a confident guy when up against the full force of unimpressed!Merlin.

I'm keeping a running commentary and so this seems like a natural place to post it (since I have a feeling it will get long). Also, I might not be able to read part 2 until tomorrow. So...

I've decided to keep a running commentary as I'm reading, because I'll never remember what I wanted to say at the end!

This line made me literally "aww" out loud: “Because you make rising at an ungodly hour more bearable,” PAINFULLY adorable I tell you! Love it so much ;D ( ... )

I love running commentary comments! XD I wanted it to be less obvious to Arthur that he had to tell the truth, because he'd recognize that it was a truth spell in about two minutes if he was forced to tell the truth all the time and it's much funner stringing him along for a bit. Glad you enjoyed it thus far!
