Four Time Merlin and Arthur Made it Work (and the one time they didn't)
Merlin. Merlin/Arthur. R. 1,320 words.

Based on this prompt over at the Merlin anon kink meme. This is rather un-pornish unfortunately, but I was inspired? Idk, anyway - Arthur/Merlin, that one reincarnation they don't talk about, when despite all the efforts (because it's ( Read more... )

Sophie... Christ. I need you in every fandom I love. Because this was purely gorgeous. The last one made me want to cry and that's rare for such a short story.

I love you. I love you. I love you.

Thank yooouuuu. Clearly I need you in every fandom I love as well, because your comments always leave me gleeful and clapping. I was ridiculously nervous about this, like I always am when I write for new fandoms, so I'm really glad it worked.

I love you too, of course. <3

(And apparently I'm going to be needing a Merlin icon? Idek)

Okay, so that was my prompt, and...
I had to blink away a few tears there. I never thought of it not working out in the 'original life', that's an awesome twist.
And those episodes before were wonderful as well, bittersweet and only little glimpses, but still so powerful.
So thank you for this! I have a huge soft spot for sad fic, I loved this a lot!

Thank you! I was so nervous about it not entirely fitting your prompt, so it means so much to me that you enjoyed it. :)

Welcome back! Long time no post.

This is awesome. I am just getting into Merlin and I am loving it. Reincarnation is beautiful and fascinating. Well done.

It has been a while! I'm clearly slacking off, but I did go camping for half the week, which was awesome. :D It also seemed to cure me of my writers block, which is amazingness personified.

And thank you! I've always been interested in reincarnation, and Merlin has so much potential for it, I'm a little stoked.

Oh, God, this is gorgeous. I love all the different ways in which they come together - happily, unhappily, breaking the people around them, but always together (and #2, fuck, so sad), and then the last one, or the first one, I guess, just so, so perfect in its simplicity, like the romance that could have been between them has no significance against the grandness of their lives, of the era. ♥

Thanks so much. I'm so glad that people are taking to this, since it's my first fic in the fandom. Just, thank you. <3

Ugh, delightful and heart wrenching. The emotion behind every word is palpable and I loooove it.
