I know that most people ship Arthur/Merlin like whoa and I do sort of, but this season there has been a huge shift for me.  I now have a triangle going on in my head, or maybe it's some sort of parallelogram, thanks to

Okay.. so far I've only written canon (except for that one weird NC17 I did). That being said... I think that ideally, I want Arthur with Merlin and Gwen with Lancelot. I don't really get any M/M with the knights. Anyone besides Ygraine with Uther is...ick.

I haven't really considered Mordred with anyone yet.

Ah, the ghostly NC17 story. Good stuff, lady:)

I'm pretty meh about the knights myself and I'm with you on Uther/Ygraine.

Really? *sob* I haven't turned you around on him even a smidge? :) ♥ Look at his beautiful face.

Oh, no... I didn't say I didn't like him. I just don't know who I would pair him with. I'm still kinda getting used to M/M pairings as it is. Perhaps I would pair him with Sefa?

I could kind of see a twisted Merlin/Mordred pairing, but their relationship is so adversarial that it seems too OOC for Merlin to me. I could see Arthur/Mordred with the way the show is playing it, but I don't like Arthur with anyone but Merlin...

Hee hee:) I have been hanging around people who write and talk about m/m pairings for years, so the concept is not new to me.

So, you might pair Mordred with Sefa? I would have to see that to buy it.

I love Arthur/Mordred with a healthy side of very jealous Merlin:)

Well, because I see Arthur and Mordred as more father/son, that pairing always makes me feel like Arthur is creepy if he furthers a sexual relationship. However, I could totally get into Merlin *thinking* there's something going on and being jealous!

Hee hee. I see. I guess there is a pretty big age difference. Did you read my story "Henbane"? I can't remember. It was all about jealous!Merlin:D

So... how crazy am I if I want to write a CD for every prompt I've missed for Amnesty week?

Yeah, I know... pretty crazy.

And I need to chat you up later about advent calendar also... not quite sure I get how it works...

Well, if you keep it to 100 words for each one, not so crazy.

Let's talk about Merlin Advent, yes! I'm cooking dinner now. Leaving to go dancing around 8. I'm more or less around this weekend though.
