Pianos are Made for Falling
(written for paperlegends)
Word Count: 104.7K~
Rating: pg-13, but non-explicit triggers (see warning)
Genre: AU, romance, angst, drama.
Beta: piscaria
Summary: Nodame Cantabile fusion. Arthur is a world class violinist, trapped in Sydney, Australia, by his fear of flying. In the wake of a mediocre concert, vicious critics and with barely a month to go before his next (hopefully reputation-saving) recital, Arthur is almost at breaking point. When his accompanist, Morgana, breaks her wrist in a car accident, Arthur is more or less doomed. And the story begins, when the Maestro at the conservatoire, Gaius Stresemann, recommends his protege Merlin Emrys to step in. Merlin, who plays by ear, as he pleases and really just wants to be a kindergarten teacher.
Well. The story really starts six months previously when Arthur passes out drunk outside Merlin's shoe-box apartment. Features plushies, apron, Arthur in the kitchen and breathlessness.
