Oh, this is gorgeous, and every emotion at just the right level. I love Merlin's growth in this, learning to be the man - the sage - he will be.

Even if you're making me miss these boys terribly.

Aw, thanks. I miss them too! Oh BBC, why so slow? :(

This was lovely. I loved that Merlin hadn't even considered that Owain might have been Arthur's lover and then the spurt of jealousy. At least in the end, Merlin was able to truly comfort Arthur. Great job.

Thank you! Merlin is clueless sometimes but he gets over it in record speed. It's half his charm. :D

Oh man, Merlin is just so young in this. And poor Arthur, constrained by his position.

ingridfic April 27 2009, 15:33:12 UTC

Hee. I like Merlin. He means well, except that it doesn't always go as planned. :D

Thank you so much! :D

At the start I was a little "startled" but the Owain/Arthur, but... I really, really liked it for the Merlin development. brava :)

That little moment where Arthur is dressing him really pinged for me. Sooo ... :D Thank you so much for the kind comment. Glad it worked.
