Two King Arthur Drabbles

I wrote both of these as writing exercises, so they are not beta'd or edited - all mistakes are mine. I challenged myself to answer a prompt and to just bang something out without fretting over it a million hours for once *laughs* Feedback would be much loved.

The first is from a prompt given me on Fields of Innocence forum and it doesn't have a ( Read more... )

The first one is pure love and so much like Arthur and lancelot in the movies that I think it should have been a part of the film as a flashback. Definitely.

And I also liked very much the second piece- very well written, I like your descriptions, my dear.

Thank you so very much, honey! Especially since your prompts were part of the inspiration for that first piece! *hugs*

Your second offering was... Hot! Hot! Hot! Yes, that was fabulous Cat :))

The first one was typical Arthur and Lancelot. One of these days Lance will learn to cool down first without getting into a brawl and having Arthur rescue his wonderful ass *hee*

Thanks for sharing hon. Great job!!

*blushes* I am so glad that it read 'hot'! *g* I can't always write what I see in my mind's eye....so I'm glad I was successful this time.

Oh yes, Arfa is always having to rescue Lance...and it IS a fine ass *winks*

Thanks so much for the read, Shelley! *hugs*

You know I love the first one. I'm glad you posted it here!

And hello smexy commander. First person works great here, and you have a true gift in describing sex without sounding like a manual. *laughs* It is beautiful and sensual and hurried and hot and just ... mmmhmmm.

I really liked this: the flame within me that had been dormant in his absence now roared to life at his touch, his scent and his need. We moaned in tandem as his hand reached my hip and slipped between our bodies to locate the source of my fire. He plunged a thick finger deep within me and I welcomed the rough intrusion with a sharp gasp into his mouth.

Hot. And descriptive without being unsexy, you know? Easy to see and imagine and I can almost hear their words and breath.

Excellent work, honey. Keep this kind of thing up! Makes me want to know what Lancelot was doing outside - listening or not? *gg*

Thank you so very much, honey ♥ And gods but I'm really glad the first person worked after all...I don't typically write from that POV. But it just seemed to fit this particular piece. I hope more snatches of his life continue to flood my brain as this one did.

And why don't you write what Lancelot was doing outside *nudge*

The sounds behind him echoed in his ears as he left the stables in a haste, Arthur's eyes long turned from him and their conversation ( ... )

There's that darn ripped tunic again! LOL. I love that one.

And check out A&C! *whistles*. I really liked the descriptions of the knights as they left the stable. And wipe that cheeky grin off your face Gawain! LOL. I generally don't write in the first person either, but I think it works well for you here.

Yes, that ripped shirt prompt was great *laughs* And thanks so much for reading the smutty one too *gg* It was a 'pleasure' to write.

I really liked the first piece. Lancelot's anger was so easy to hear even if I felt Arthur missed the point of it a little. I think if I had very few pieces of clothing and one got ripped I would be rather upset although not to the point of holding someone up with a knife. I was shocked when Lance went so far as to finally loose his temper and hit Arthur, that was very nicely written and Arthur's reaction.

The second piece I think your OC Cara is a wonderful development. She is very much Arthur's for the taking. You write a very hot pairing there.

I also loved Ashley's response about what Lance was doing. Any chance Arthur will share?

Arthur can certainly be 'thick-headed' at times. That was my intent too in that piece *g*, so I'm glad it came through for you when you read it. And I do see Lance as more of a hothead than the other knights. I'm so glad the piece worked for you!

Cara certainly IS all Arthur's *ggg* But I don't see him sharing....(sorry Lance!)

Thank you so much for reading, dear! *hugs* I'm always encouraged by your support.
