I loved all of these, but #5 might be my favourite. No, #5.5, I can't decide. The contrast between the two Morganas - one of the wiser, more composed and the other one slightly crazy and yet heartbreaking - made me shiver. I love Gwen's fierce determination in #1, and #8 is just adorable.

Gwen has made enough decisions in her life; she cannot deceipher the possibilities of retrospection. She reaches up, shuddering beneath Morgana's hand, and doesn't answer.

Oh Gwen! ♥

I figure any moment you dip into Morgana's life she's at a different extreme, though I think I prefer her more on edge.

Glad the others worked too, thank you! :)

and yay for ending on a warm fuzzy note. love it!

Hee, I got a bit attached to creating a grand 80s Thatcheresque universe, and then suddenly had to wittle it down to a word limit. And in my head, all their stories end on fuzzy notes. :P

Thanks for the lovely comment!

omg i'm not finished reading through all of them yet, but I had to stop at #3 just to express my love for it. Of course Gwen knows! X-D And of course she'd find a way to make it work without forcing anyone to do anything. <3 <3 And omg Gwen and Merlin, those two...**flail**

GWEN KNOWWWWWWS.

I refuse to entertain any other belief. Just like Arthur has to deliberately conk himself out so Merlin can get on with exploding villains or whatever it is.

Thank you! Surprisingly, prompts for Gwen and Morgana and wine wound up being written with much enthusiasm. :P
