Wow. So, that's awkward/hilarious.

The fic was funny all the way through, what with the naked banquet and the wine-spilling, and the changing into nothing-clothes, but that last scene was just a perfect way to end it.

one thing, though: If there were no clothes, Uther and Arthur wouldn't have been able to see anything either, and they both seem quite certain that they themselves are not magic. You think they might have cottoned on to the scam a bit sooner?

Thank you! I'm so glad you found it funny!

As for Uther and Arthur, I think they were just too stubborn. They'd have assumed that, shock horror, there must be some magic in them, but there's no way they'd admit it.

I just love how you manage to integrate Leverage in the Merlin universe.
Thanks for sharing!

Thank you! Now I've taken the Leverage team back, and brought Arthur and Merlin forward - clearly I'm determined to make them meet! *G*

I posted it the other day, just on my dreamwidth journal because it was a quick ficlet, nothing fancy. :-)

Thank you! And yes, it will definitely crop up in conversations, as will the fact that Morgana was there and saw it ALL!
