Oooh, but this is precious. Boys are dumb indeed, just as girls are mad. But that's how the world works, isn't it? ;)

I enjoyed this character study immensely. The way Arthur reacted to his father's reprimand, the way Uther couldn't see past Arthur being a child, the poem he wrote, the way Morgana had such complex, intertwined motivations -- all of it was precious.

I don't know what the original prompt sounded like, since it was deleted from the list, but the fill was truly spectacular. ♥

ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE.

Little Arthur and Morgana are just spot on to what I imagine them like. Such a wonderful fic--marvelous job!

I liked the dynamics between Morgana and Arthur. I liked how she was trying to push Uther into apology. Good job with this.

Why aren't there more comments posted here - this was lovely!

I've always loved reading about my fav OTP when they're younger and experiencing growing pains.

Thank you for this! :) I enjoyed it so much.

Awww, I loved the twist that Arthur was truly only outside the castle to protect and watch over Morgana.

Thank you so much for participating in the fest!
