I'm so glad you enjoyed it, and that I could make your day a little bit better! :D Thanks for reading! ^^

This is one of those rare piece of cracks that also have a huge amount of very *real* emotional tension and moments- the characterisation is lovely and the reveal nicely done. Liked it.

Scary rabid squirrels though. D:

Thanks very much; I'm glad you had a good time with it! :D

And haha, yeah, I'm waiting for the squirrel nightmares to kick in. XD

I really like the whole crack-turning-serious thing. That last scene between Merlin and Arthur was absolutely lovely.

I'm glad to hear it! I always get a bit concerned when the tone of the piece oscillates like that. XD Thanks so much! :)

This was thr very best sort of crack. The real tension and emotion makes it really good.

Also squirrels!

Thanks very much! :D I had a great time with it. ^^

I think I need a squirrel icon, haha. XD

That was sweet. Loved the evil squirrels although I love the black squirrels around here. They are very pretty. Loved that Arthur was following Merlin after he found out and what MErlin said to him back. Good for him. Well done.

Thanks! :) And yeah, I personally have nothing against the squirrels around here, but I've heard stories that they're not very friendly, haha. XD

Glad you enjoyed it! :)
