So, since I've been putting off a large amount of reccing off for all of November and the holidays are coming up, I've resolved to post here more often. Yeah. Ignore me.
Title & Link:
Duel and its sequel
VirusAuthor:
kaiyabeckRating: PG and G, respectively.
Genre: General
Brief summary: Xigbar learns-- the hard way-- that wizards who are old and eccentric are rarely ever weak.
After the battle at Hollow Bastion, Merlin leaves Xigbar with one last lesson-- and the other members of the Organization will have to suffer along with him.
Featured characters and/or pairing(s): Merlin and Xigbar. Cameos from Saïx, Luxord, and Xaldin in the sequel.
Reason(s) for the recommendation:
If I had to choose one reason, one reason I love this fandom so much, it would be Disney characters kicking butt. For those who have never had the opportunity to see Merlin in action, these two connected drabbles are a must. Great interaction with the Organization members in the second part, however brief.
Excerpt(s) of interest:
Xaldin sighed. “I can’t say for certain. He’s burning hot to the touch, and yet he shivers uncontrollably. And he won’t stop--”
Xaldin’s voice was drowned out by a sudden almighty sneeze from inside Xigbar’s quarters, so powerful that it actually rattled the doorframe.
...sneezing,” Xaldin finished lamely. “To be honest, I’ve never seen anything like it-- like a pox of some sort. It’s covered his entire body!”
