These are a few of my ~fa~vor~ite~ things

Yay for price wars! Walmart announced it’s cutting the prices of 10 popular upcoming DVDs to $10, and Target and Amazon have followed suit. (I know the article says Amazon hasn’t responded yet, but it has now; Star Trek (Single-Disc Edition), Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Widescreen Edition and Full Screen Edition, Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian (Single-Disc Edition), and Julie & Julia are all listed as $10 for pre-order-there should be several other titles at that price as well, but I’m not sure which they are.)

$10 Star Trek? Oh yes, my precious, we likessss it! #cackles#

And don’t think I’m neglecting you, Merlin fans, as I have a lovely and wonderful Arthur/Merlin rec to share today! Here you go ^___^:

(FIC) But, to me by tetsubinatu (Arthur/Merlin, very light R, 3,790 words)
Merlin is taken prisoner on the battlefield.

tetsubinatu is an absolute sweetheart and wrote me this as a thank-you, which was entirely too kind of her (but very much appreciated! <333), and I enjoyed it so much that, after I was done flailing and capslocking, I knew I had to head over here and point you all over to it.

So, I don’t want to give too much of the plot away, but I will tell you that this story is the perfect mix of seriousness and ZOMG-I-can’t-breath-from-all-this-laughing!funny. Arthur and Merlin’s interaction is just so them; Merlin is naively reckless but still very loveable, Arthur is protective of him despite himself, and they both argue a lot but only because they like each other so much.

Also-and this part’s a little spoilery, so please highlight this next part if you want to read it-START SPOILER everyone thinks that Merlin is Arthur’s catamite, LMFAOOOO! It’s so hilarious and so hot, and played to perfection here. ^___^ END SPOILER

And did I mention that it’s hot? Because, yes. Merlin bathes Arthur. Twice. #squees#

This is a very satisfying read; it nicely balances drama, humor, sexiness, and scmhoop and will leave you warm and smiling by the end. I hope you check it out and enjoy it as much as I did!

Other things pleasing to me at the moment are:
*I recently revamped my LiveJournal tags so they're easier to navigate

*Last night, I happened to see this guy on t.v. that looks exactly like a young Rob Lowe (mmm, pretty! =o)

*IT'S MERLIN DAY!!1

star trek, harry potter gen, merlin, recs
