I love it! I like all the Victorian details (like Gretna Green) and how sweet A&G are together. I would not be against reading more of this... 0:)

Thanks so much…I tried my hardest to add those details in without making it sound like a history lesson LOL, so I’m pleased it worked. As for more…well with the reception it’s gotten it’s spurred me on. I had a few ideas in my head but wasn’t sure I write them down but now I’m pretty darn sure I’ll write some more in this universe =P

This was great! Loved the physical interaction between A and G in this part, it was just so perfect, particularly in the necklace bit, they need some more of the subtle touchy feely moments in the show in series 3. Really enjoyed this, though I think Morgana came across as pretty selfish, given she totally messed with their plans. Glad it all worked out for them in the end. Loved seeing Morgana being privy to the relationship, I do wonder what her reaction will be in the show. It will be an interesting moment. Really nice fic, very sweet without being at all cheesy= perfection :D xx

^_^ Thanks so much. I agree that we totally need some nice subtle moments between the two, I would LOVE to see that in S3 that be great.

think Morgana came across as pretty selfish, given she totally messed with their plans well I suppose you could see it that way, but in hindsight it actually was better this way plus I also know in my head how despicable Mr. Teller is, so maybe I should have made that more clear to make her more sympathetic?? Something to think about for next time =D thanks for the comment xxx

Tbh I don't think it was a problem with your writing, most probably was more because I don't like anyone who stops/postpones A/G getting together offically :P besides I think it was quite appropriate that she seemed a bit selfish, I do love morgana, but she is pretty self absorbed in the show. In my head I saw him as a kind of Mr Warren (from becoming jane), if that was anything like you intended, i could totally understand why she wouldn't want to marry him. Thanks once again for a lovely fic and the selfish thing wasn't supposed to be critcal of your writing at all, sorry I didn't make that clear xxx

O don’t worry BB I didn’t take offence or anything, I was just contemplating it, constructive criticism is always welcome and everything. But glad that you feel it wasn’t the writing but rather your biasness in getting A/G together officially in marriage LOL which I can’t blame you for. I’ve not seen becoming Jane…mainly because I knew she never married and quite frankly I get so upset in movies…yes I am a cry baby and didn’t want to go through the agony of what I knew was going to be a sad love story.

I agree with you on the Morgana front as well; she is slightly self absorbed but that doesn’t make me love her less LOL xxx

This was really great. I liked how Morgana knew about Arthur and Gwen and helped them steal moments together. The neckless was so beautiful. Loved your description of it. You did and awesome job of Victoriaizing(I'm sure that's not a word) Arthur and Gwen. Thanks for all the fics today. They made my weekend. :)

Awwww thanks bb, your comments made mine, fair trade xD Morgana kind of ambushed me while writing this and demanded to be put in more hence the reason the part 2 is focused on her voice LOL glad you enjoyed it and thanks for commenting =D

oh this was absolutely lovely! Being a true Pride and Prejudice fan, I love this era and you wove Arthur/Gwen into it perfectly! It was just such a great piece, so enjoyable!

ahh I want to read more of it! A prequel perhaps?! (I'd love to know how they fell in love!!!!)
