I find it funny now when I read a fic and there's a 'Gawaine' in it (of any spelling) and I want to know immediately if it was written pre-3.04 so I know if it's really Gwaine or just random knight guy that author stuck in there.

(just so that I can picture in my mind if he's making doe-eyes at Merlin throughout the scene or not.)

Oh, I hadn't noticed a lot of pre-3x04 fic with Gawain. I don't like calling him 'Gwayne', but I can distinguish them, I guess? But there's a REALLY cute one pre-3x04 on the KMM before that featured our Gwaine. Just from the spoilery interview by Colin.

And THE SHOW HAS SPOILED ME. Gawain/Gawaine/Gwaine will always be making heart eyes at Merlin. FOREVER. AND EVER. ♥

When he is in fics pre-3.04, he's often in the background, just one of the boys in the crowd around Arthur.

But written post-3.04, well, he's Gwaine! You can't just throw his name out and make him 'random knight/rich jock guy' because if he's rude to Merlin, your readers are going nail you for it. :D

HAHAHA. I'm all about Merlin/Gwaine IN THE FOREFRONT OF FORENESS. Like, just throw them out there. In the front. I want them to be that sickeningly PDA couple that's just OUT THERE. BECAUSE they totally would be. They'd be that couple in a club, dancing and grinding in the middle of the dance floor while everyone's like, IT IS ONLY HOT when you're doing that to strangers. IT IS A LITTLE SICK when you're a couple.

And Gwaine would just flip them the finger. AND MERLIN WOULD HIDE HIS FACE IN GWAINE'S SHOULDERS AND CONTINUE GRINDING.

Hymm, I think he is in one of my fav fics as someone AU Arthur tries to have a revenge night stand with but can't because, you know, Merlin is the ONE.

Gotta go look, because how Gawain is describe is big and hairy (antithesis of Merlin).

Yes, I'm kind of interested in Old Gawain fics :D Just to see how it's different/same as the one we have now. BUT I WOULD LOVE TO SEE MORE OF Gwaine and merlin being THE ONE fics now :P

Just looked, it was Owain, not his cousin Gawain. Close though? so my mistake is entirely forgiven right?
