It's horrible to say, but I love Arthur like that. I mean, we hardly ever get to see him so vunerable in the show and yet you portray it so in character somehow.
Jesus I absolutely adore this.
I would give you your whole wishlist if I blummin' well could! :( <3

Hence my having written it- I love him like this too. I don't know what it is about him, or anyone else, but I love writing characters at their most vulnerable, when they regress to a child-like state of needing someone to care for them and not being able to handle anything that they're confronted with.
Thank you so much, I am so glad you like it ♥

This was absolutely heartbreaking and beautiful all at once. How you put so much detail and emotion into this just blows me away. I especially like how Arthur is so close to Merlin and how it isn't easy for anyone. Brilliant, and I can't wait for you to update.

Thank you very much! I'm really glad you appreciated it, it means a lot :-) I'll let you know when I put up the fourth part!

Oh gosh, how heart breaking!

I particularly love the last lines, very touching.

Thank you very much for your comment! Hopefully I'll be making Arthur better eventually! :(

*hugs Arthur* Another wonderful chapter, I love the way you write this. As always I can not wait for more!

Thank you so much! I'll let you know when there is more. :)

Oh, poor Arthur! I feel so bad for him. :( You're writing his struggle very well. I like how at the end there that Arthur took Merlin's concern for him to heart and ate all his breakfast. :)

I'm enjoying this series. :) I hope Arthur gets better soon!

Thank you very much. I'm glad you liked that touch with the breakfast, I was going to leave it on a very angsty note but decided to put that little bit of optimism in at the end :-)

Thank you! ♥
