My xover_exchange fic is up! You can see what I've spent the last month whining about here.

Next whining topic: space_wrapped

Forever and a day ago, mumblemutter asked me for Merlin/Arthur inspired by the first thing I saw when I looked behind me. At the time, that was the wreckage of my suitcase and a shedload of books, which leads - obviously - to the Magical Realism Kerouac Interview RPS-Sort-Of AU.

( You don’t understand,” said Merlin, his whine reaching the desperate pitch which Arthur had privately noted meant dragon conspiracy. “It was forged for you. It was enchanted for you. If anyone else wields it, things…” he gestured vaguely with the sword. “It gets less selective. Trust me, Arthur, as your advisor and as an incompetent swordsman: giving me a magic sword won’t help.” )

merlin loses arthur in time. it's easier than asking to have him hidden.
massive thanks to mumblemutter .

( He's a bit of a shit this time round, to be honest. )

Dear Merlin fandom,

How have you managed to reach your current size without producing a single hooker AU? Don't even try to tell me all the sickos are in bandom - I've seen the incestuous rape fics, I know which way your collective moral compass points. Gimme.

Yours in frustration,
Liz.

So apparently I'm into the Merlin fandom now, and it's all because of this Hollywood AU, which is basically the hottest thing I've ever read, ever, and has broken my brain.

...who wants to beta my epic Heroes crossover/AU?
