thank you. :)

The picture ^o^ nice fic, too!

justthisfic May 30 2009, 16:47:51 UTC

thanks! on both accounts. :)

Wow. This is amazing, and a really well-written piece! Nice take on the 'gender-swap' idea (but like you said, I guess it isn't really...)

biotheory May 24 2009, 10:57:36 UTC

on that note, I really need a Merlin/Arthur Icon...

justthisfic May 30 2009, 16:49:12 UTC

lol, everyone needs a Merlin/Arthur icon. Even if they don't ship it. lol

But thank you so much. And yeah, it's not really gender-swap but I don't think this fandom has a pre-made category for trans-fic yet.

MPREG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Or, no it's not MPREG, is it? It's Born-as-a-Girl!Merlin!!!! See my observational skills...

EVEN BETTER.

LOVE!!!!!

lol, you make me laugh bb. Yeah, it's born-as-a-girl!Arthur (that's what you meant to say, right?). You're observational skills are wonderful. Besides, you have excuses. Totally.

I was actually nervous about posting this because it's such a hush-hush issue with some people. But I had to. I was compelled.

I totally meant Arthur, I'm so glad you are in my brain and knew that.

You should never be nervous about posting fic, BB. Everything you write is Golden.

Very, very interesting. It's quite a difficult subject but I think you've handled it very well. Poor Arthur.

justthisfic May 30 2009, 16:52:17 UTC

thank you! Yeah, it is difficult but I haven't seen a lot of stories about this so I wanted to explore it. I was nervous I was being insensitive but I'm glad it worked. :)
