I certainly hope to see more from you; you're off to a great start! This is a very heartwarming story, and I kind of love it. :D

Oh, thanks! That's sweet of you, I'm glad you liked it. (I was all sorts of nervous, I haven't ventured into a new fandom in...what, half a decade? o.O)

♥!

"I am God, actually."

I really enjoyed that. Great banter between the boys but also some angsty moments too. I do hope you write more Merlin fic :)

Well, I've sort of committed myself to one of those 100 drabble table challenges, but I promise I won't get annoying with it (likely I'll punk out halfway through). Thanks, I'm glad the banter (and the angst! :D!) was likable, and thanks so much for telling me! :D

I KNOW RIGHT? slaksdja though of course that cuteness had little to nothing to do with the fic, they're just. ...BOYS. ♥__♥

I loved this! You voice the boys well and I love your comparisons with the Abraham story. And of course this: "Did my manservant just compare himself to God?" Hope you've got more to share :)

Oh, thanks! I'm really glad you liked the Abraham story bit, I kinda flailed as soon as I read that one of the most popular mystery plays was Abraham and Isaac, ngl. *has a THING for religious imagery* :D
