Ahh this was awesome! I love that Arthur was SO ANGRY in the last scene. I feel like most of the reveal fics I read lately he is not that surprised deep down but in this his anger really felt justified and as Nell says one wants to cuddle them both so much. Yay thank you for writing this!!

Hee, Soph! I like an angry Arthur! I think even if he's not surprised deep down, or even if he puts the pieces together very quickly after the major reveal happens, I don't think that means he wouldn't be rage-ful. At some point there's something willful to his ignorance about Merlin now, you know? Like he's almost giving Merlin the benefit of the doubt. It's the betrayal of trust! Gets me every time. *tear*

Thank you for being so sweet! Sorry I've been derp at communicating lately - everyone has been getting caught in the crossfire of my fail. :/ Bleh.

I didn't think you were being uncommunicative babe! I also have comments that I haven't answered. :D

[flammablehat]

Ha no, I meant all around, like email, chat, comments. All of it. /o\

Loved the consequences and how angry Arthur was about the whole thing. Had to LOL about the dragon playing with the knights.

I hadn't written a reveal before this (or not that I can remember, lol) and angry Arthur kind of just pushed his way out. XD I love all sorts of reveals, but Arthur is so, so pretty when he's angry. *sigh* And lol, idek where it came from but I'm thinking kilgharrah/knights is my new OTP.

Thanks for the lovely comment!

[flammablehat]

This was wonderful! I always wondered what happened after Cave In, and now I know! Thank you for sharing!

[flammablehat]

Aw, thanks! I'm glad you liked where it ended up going, haha! Thank you for reading! :D

I may have got a little giddy and flaily at seeing you had written an addition to the last piece. I utterly adore this. Arthur's hurt reaction and Merlin's desperation. gah! So wonderful! <3

[flammablehat]

Aw wow, thank you so much! That's so sweet of you to say! I'm really glad it worked for you - I had some trouble with it for a little while, I'll admit! Thanks so much again for the lovely comment!
