I haven't even started reading yet, but I need to record:

YOU USED AIMEE MANN'S HUMPTY DUMPTY AS AN OPENER. YOU ARE MY HERO.

Sorry. I've just been trying to figure out what kind of fic to use the lyrics for, and haven't yet succeeded in said errant. For the lyrics alone I need to read this.

I'm commenting over here because this is the entry I'm adding to my memories ;)

Two ♥ up! I love it! Especially all the parallels to canon, with Uther's "repayment" of Nimueh, the fact that Emrys saves Arthur despite his father's attitudes, Morgana's secret abilities. Fabulous!

This...makes me want to cry. In a really, really good way. The whole concept is stunning (I have ma-hoo-sive weakness for superheroes etc). The image of Morgana smoking on the back steps will literally haunt me for...if not forever, than at least for a long time, and the whole twist on Nimueh is genius. It's all so beautiful, and the kiss was perfect. And...I need to go read the second part before I burst into tears.
