No Matter of Chance: I love this for the Merlin Arthur banter about Gwen because it's what I love about them on the show too! Just the whole Arthur *running* into Gwen thing and Merlin teasing him about it, perfect! Congrats!

Easier Said than Done It's the ending line of this that had me cracking up so much and reading this more than once when you first posted it. The 'nudist colony' line is pure genius! Congrats on the win, well deserved!

For Everything We Gain This is another one that when you first posted I read more than once. Your wording made me picture so strongly a king and queen sitting there with a storm just raging around them. I could see their hairs blowing in the wind. I LOVED that the kingdom was so divided about them because yeah that's probably how it will be. This honestly would have been one of my choices for top three. And its one of my favorite mini fics ever.

I adore their banter about Gwen on the show as well! Possibly because it shows how much these two boys adore the hell out of her. It makes me flail. Hee.

I'm really glad you liked them! Truth be told, For Everything We Gain was my favorite of the three I wrote (I have a rather ridiculous obsession with angst), so I'm thrilled your liked it so much. Thanks for all of your kind words. <3 <3

Aw, thank you, bb!! I have to admit, No Matter of Chance is actually back story for a different fic I'm working on (although seeing as I've worked on that one for over a year I doubt it'll ever see the light of day XD), so don't be too impressed with the hinted back story. =P Although I'm definitely thinking of expanding it (my original fic for that prompt was actually the restaurant scene).

Ugh, bb, I love angst so much. It's bad. I think I need help.

Thank you so, so much!! ♥

I really loved these. No Matter of Chance was my favorite and yes I'm biased because that was my prompt and I just adored what you did with it. AND YES YOU SHOULD EXPAND IT, NO PRESSURE.

All your fics were such great examples of how well you write across all the various emotional spectrum. You really should write more fics for the fandom.

Yay! Do you think if we spam her journal she'd write more for us like Thursday does?

OMG OMG I LOVE YOU=}

OMG OMG YOU WROTE THE FIC FROM MY PROMPT!!! HEHEHEHE I LOVED THAT ONE CUZ IT WAS A GREAT INTERPRETATION FOR MY PROMPT (FOR THE FIRST TIME)~! also like I said in the feedback I could relate to them trying to change a nappy. As a child care worker I know how to do it now like an expert, but the first time I did it in class I struggled like Arthur and Gwen. So it was great that I could relate to them on some level.

And the first one! I just loved it! I love Arthur pining for Gwen and 'stalking' her and Merlin just being Merlin and telling him that he should just ask Gwen out. It was very hilarious and the characterization of Arthur and Merlin was spot on!

LOL, yes, I did. =D I almost didn't post for that prompt, but now I'm glad I decided to go through with it.

Thank you so much, Millie!!

Whyyy don't you write more??

[hmsharmony]

*shuffles feet* I've actually written nearly 24,000 words in A/G fics (probably a lot more if one includes what I've written down in my journals), but I either lose inspiration halfway through or can't work up the nerve to post them. I'm a ridiculous person. =\

[anjali_organna]

Well I encourage you to post them!

[hmsharmony]

♥ Thanks, bb.
