That's fab! :) I love the progression of her self-discovery, and the writing is beautiful as always. I think I like your writing better than the show itself, it's more serious and deep. :)

Thanks, Sal! I'm really looking forward to how they play out the relationship in the show. It's so doomed and tragic!

From what I've seen, most of the fic in this fandom has more gravitas than the show itself, but then I think that's what makes it so interesting (and the same could be said of another fandom, eh? ;))

Glad you liked it, but I promise I still love Johnny more!

Maybe they'll give him a cameo! ;) He'd make a good Mordred, or someone dark and sinister...

Simply gorgeous. Everything rings so incredibly true - it's heartbreaking, but beautiful.

Oh thank you so much for such a lovely comment. I'm always nervous when I post a first fic in a new fandom, so I'm glad it rang true for you :)

I've not strayed into this fandom, because I think the slashiness would do my head in, so it was a nice surprise to find something written by someone I can trust not to make me want to spork my eyes out!

Which is a very roundabout way of saying fabulous job! Morgana is definitely the most intriguing character on the show and I really like the way you've written her here.

I for one will certainly not be complaining should you feel so inclined to write any more Merlin fic!

Thanks Caz! :)

I know what you mean about the fandom. I was a little reluctant to get into the fandom myself, in case I couldn't find anything but Arthur/Merlin stuff, but you know what obsession is like. Once it's got you... ;)

I've actually been pleasantly surprised. While Arthur/Merlin makes up the majority of fic, there is a lot of really good het and gen stuff too. I can see the Arthur/Merlin subtext in the show, and there are certainly a lot of male bonding moments, but I guess I just love my guy/girl sex too much *g*

Anyway, I'm really glad you liked it, and I do indeed have a couple more bunnies hopping about in my brain, dying to get out :)

Yay for bunnies! And please feel free to point me in the direction of the good het stuff when you have the time - I could do with something new to read, and this is one of the few shows I managed to get around to watching lately. You can email me if it's easier -caz963@hotmail.co.uk
