Before the ceremony, she visits Morgana.

“You’re stunning, Gwen,” says Morgana, “Every inch a queen.”

She tries, “Thank you, my lady. Your opinion means a lot to me.”

“Gwen - “ starts Morgana, “You must know that I love you. Very much. I will do anything to protect you. I don’t wish to - “

Gwen stares hard at the floor, and finally she says, “I - I feel the same way.”

She wants to continue, to explain further, but Morgana moves forward and kisses her firmly, and she finds she has nothing to say.

Morgana pulls away and says, very close, “You should go. I’ll be there. I wish you every happiness, Gwen.”

“Yes!” says Gwen, “I should go. I have to attend this marriage to, um, be married,” and she leaves before she can say anything unutterably stupid like, this is a mistake, isn’t it? After the ceremony, she follows Arthur to his chambers, and tries to not wonder if this is as unfamiliar and uncomfortable for him as it is for her, if he wishes that someone else were there with him ( ... )

“Fifteen lashes?” she demands, storming into the throne room. It’s a good thing that only Arthur and Merlin are there, she thinks dizzily, but the verdict has already been passed. “Arthur, you can’t be serious ( ... )

In Arthur’s chambers, they discuss matters of state, while Merlin hurls tiny animated fireballs at Gwen, who catches them in a curiously fire resistant cloth.

“Morgana,” says Arthur in irritation, “do try to pay attention.” And then, “Merlin.“Sorry, sorry,” laughs Merlin, “You know, in France, they do this thing where for every three fields, they only plant two of them: one with normal crops and one with beans and things, and the third they let lie fallow, and then they rotate like that, every year. It takes up a lot of land, but it seems to work. I read it in a book ( ... )

She finds that she wants to discuss the state of her kingdom, even in bed. It’s an ailment that she imagines -no, she knows - that Arthur suffers from as well. Happiness somehow makes her resolve sharper, as if she intends to impose her happiness on the entire world.

Besides, she likes to hear Gwen talk like this, serious and private, mouth on skin.

But now, with the air thick and fragile between them, it becomes easier to focus instead on the steady press of Gwen’s fingers on her hips.

“You know,” she interrupts herself, “I have a hammer of my own.”

“You do?” Gwen replies.

“Yes, I do. Not like that, don't be disgusting. I don't even know what you mean. A real hammer. And I made it myself, when I was ten or eleven. Your father showed me. Don’t you remember?”

“I shall have to consider it my betrothal present,” Gwen says, very serious, “Sorry, what were you saying, before?”

Morgana laughs, and moves forward into her mouth.

“It can wait,” she says.

Wow. This is incredible. I'll admit, there were bits where I was a little confused, not entirely sure which scenes went together, but by the end just ...gah. The one's so heartbreaking and the other's so lovely and wonderful, and the contrast just makes each one more intense and gah. Simply stunning.

Wow. It took me a bit to figure out the core differences between the possible futures, but this was a beautiful (and hopeful) reinterpretation of possible futures. I particularly loved the teasing when they were four to a bed, and Morgana saying she made her own hammer. ^_^

This is utterly brilliant, you managed to make me laugh and then you made me cry, and then at the end there, I cracked a smile again. I'm ever so grateful that you went out on the happy future, the one that's all about trust and truths. The other one, the one that's so much closer to legend, is the one that breaks my heart, and I'm terrified that this is what we'll get from the show - so I'm glad there is another option. Thank you.

This was very sweet. I really liked it--definitely was somewhat confused, but I love the story itself a lot. It's unlike anything I've read before, dreamy and realistic and hopeful and sad.
