There is not a single word of this story that I am not utterly and completely in love with. You have created an addict! I adore sloppy writer Merlin, and Arthur missing him and texting him to knock on the ceiling. They're married before they even realize they like each other. Leon was funny as all heck. And... wait, is Merlin dating Percy? Why did I assume it was Will? I'm having a hard time thinking the cruel boyfriend is as bad as all that, if it's Percy, he's such a gentle doll. But - bring on the first awkward meeting where Arthur turns all white-knight! Can't wait! Hugs all 'round!

Ah thanks! Such a nice comment! I needed Merlin's boyfriend to be muscular enough to make Arthur feel inadequate. Ha ha.

LOL. Yes, if anyone could do that, it would be Percival. I guess I'm going to have to face a "villain" Percy. For the sake of this amazing story, I'll just have to cope. ;) Maybe he's the "slow and stupid" version of Percy you sometimes see. You know, not bad intentioned, he just didn't think.... LOL. Any more up yet? *ashamed to admit I'm begging*

I think that this is the first time a hug made me catch my breath a bit. Either you're a really good writer, or I'm in a very bad way.

Read part 1 to 3 in one go so this is my first comment ;)
Lovely fic! I also thoroughly enjoy it when I know more than the characters and so I was giggling quite often ^^ (anticipation of reveals etc.)
Ha, and when you finally revealed that the boyfriend is Percy - LOL! Had been wondering about that!
I can only see this getting better and better :D
