You wrote fic! *is in shock*

♥ Gweeeen!

Aww, kid!Gwen & kid!Morgana friendship! And Arthur being a not-prat while still being a prat! And Gwen wanting a truce and *flails, draws hearts around fic* This is too adorable!

[hmsharmony]

Okay, so I can't tell you how much this comment means to me because just a few minutes ago I was FREAKING OUT over posting this (...as I'm sure you read XD). So thank you, thank you, thank you!! *huge, giant hug* I wasn't sure how people would feel about Gwen wanting a truce (because Gwen as an opinionated, fiery girl seems to be a common theme in kid!Merlin fic), but in "current" times she tends to act as the source of calm. Although I am positive that she has always been spirited, I felt that her need to maintain the peace would reign (until Arthur pushed her over her limit of course :-P). So yes, very relieved you approved of that part!

Again, thank you so much, bb! This means a lot. <3

*hugs* It was lovely! I thought it was very true to Gwen and what she would do. <3

Too cute for words!

[hmsharmony]

Thank you!! <3

It's adorable!

Short and squeaky Arthur being a brat was perfect, and I loved Morgana smiling at the guards and pushing him in! I liked her friendship with Gwen as well <3

Aw, thank you!! Yeah, writing Arthur...was kind of a ridiculous amount of fun. Ten-year-old boys are annoying as is, but when they're Arthur... :-P.

Thank you for taking the time to comment! :-D

OMFG!!!

OMFG That was so great! You nailed a younger!Morgana, Gwen and Arthur so well. AWW Morgana and Gwen were just adorable too bad we probably will never see them when they were younger and got along.

Morgana pushing him into the lake= hilarious, Gwen ending up in there too was just epic and so typical of Arthur to act like a prat when Gwen asked if he was ok.

My favourite part was when Arthur put the quilt over Gwen and showed some humility, then of course he continued to act like a prat again, which was very spot on with his character on the show.

I just want to draw rainbows, fireworks, cute little puppy dogs all over this fic.

PS: I so totally agree about Gwen haveing a freaking action figure doll (lol then I could get the Arthur one and do what I used to do with my Barbie and Ken dolls)

Aw, bb, thank you!!! I'm so glad you enjoyed it, and I'm beyond relieved that you think the characterization was right (that was the part I was freaking out about the most!!).

AWW Morgana and Gwen were just adorable too bad we probably will never see them when they were younger and got along.

I know!!! I really, really wish we could get a flashback ep so we could see the amazing bffness between those two, because based on what we saw in series one it was pretty amazing. Such a shame the relationship was forgotten! :-(

That was one of the parts I rewrote about five million times (...and yes, that does mean there are several parts I rewrote five million times XD) and it took me forever to have everything work out (looooooooong story). I'm thrilled you liked it!

No your characterization was very spot on, so no need to freak out so much any more!

Yeah, I agree I think that Angel and Katie get along really well and you could see that in series 1. I know that in the future they probably won't get along, but I was hoping for some more Morgana/ Gwen friendship scenes before that occurred. But since the spoilers pics of a Gwen, Morgana, Morgause scene, I'm excited because any Gwen, Morgana scene with added Morgause will be epic (I hope so anyway!)

Awwww, bb!! *HUGS* And also LOL, because apparently drawing rainbows and fireworks and cute little puppy dogs over fic is a ~Merlin fandom thing or something. XDYeah I think it must be a Merlin fandom thing

Okay, good!! *Sigh of relief* I would totally blush over my mind going STRAIGHT to the gutter, except...I'm a member of C_L. IT'S WHAT WE DO. XD
