There were way too many things that I loved about this story to list, but here are a few: your characterizations of Merlin and Arthur are amazing...their banter rang true, the romance was made canon, Gaius' eyebrow, Vivian, Harper and Ian, Fabian, Colette...wow. I loved it!

This was brilliant! I love that you used characters that are often neglected.

This was a perfect end to a wonderful story, which was, by the way, very definitely well worth the wait.

I loved the descriptions of the individual men lining up to kiss Vivian (and Merlin coming up with the "it's a Camelot custom" excuse *sniggers*). And then it was Colette, yay! Who I had suspected for probably not as long as you had left clues, owing to the fact that I'd originally thought it might be Harper... (and the poor shocked knight who fainted at the sight of girl-on-girl kissing: evidently Valden's knights aren't quite so used to shocks as Camelot's *g*)

Arthur’s index finger stabbed into his chest. “Sorcerer. You. When you told Olaf you and Gaius studied magic, I started to think, and then one thing after another made sense. I’m not stupid-and, apparently, neither are you. We can have the policy debate later; track him down and kill him.” Whoohoo! You've got to love Arthur's priorities! And I adore that he's all, "We're a team, Merlin. This is your part of it so go do it ( ... )

I know you said to take my time podficcing Sweeter Dreams, but I thought I'd better give you a heads up that this is taking way longer than I'd anticipated. Or rather, my previous project is taking a lot longer than I'd thought, so I haven't even started recording this one! D: I will get there eventually though, don't worry...

Don't worry about it! I, uh, still haven't managed to go through and arrange links to the other podfics, so… yes. And considering how ridiculously long it took me to WRITE the fic, you really, really don't need to apologize. ;)
