OMGYAY! You've joined the Merlin fandom! ^______________________^

I'm already euphoric and I haven't even read the fic yet. XD

Hahaha - you're not supposed to be encouraging me! You're supposed to be saying 'jo, what the hell do you think you're doing?? Get back to TW.' ;)

What? I cannot have sarcasticfic in both fandoms? 9_9

Also, this was GREAT! So hot~~ And that bit of actual PLOT at the end! Arthur finally has his great epiphany, eh? XDDD Me likes the image of Merlin using nekkid!Arthur as a pillow IN THE BATHTUB. <3

*chuckles* You're attempting to tax my brain, aren't you?

Plot? What's this thing you call ... plot? ;) I didn't intend for it to show up - honestly. But then I got done writing and bam! There it was, snuck in when I wasn't looking.

I don't see why we couldn't have that shot in s2!? I mean - the shot in the bathtub....it could happen...right? *hopes*

Thanks for reading!

*bounces like a mad killer hare* How much do I love that there's a mad killer hair attacking Arthur!!!

This is so wonderful! Merlin is so perfectly bitter, and with such just cause! I especially love his growing curses with each step hauling water -- that's masterfully done -- and his pure loathing when he gets Arthur undressed and he's clean and doesn't need a bath after all. Poor Merlin!

And then... "Get in." Guh. I just love how you've written Arthur's imperious tone here, not tolerating Merlin's hesitation. (And because he doesn't want him to stink around him tomorrow, yeah, right...)

This is some gorgeous smexxin here! Those fingers on his throat (hello, breathy kink, glad you made it!) and that "Shh... I've got you" ... well, I already told you how tingle-happy that whole paragraph is!

But that's not enough ... you turn this into a reveal story, and Arthur is so wonderfully accepting of it, and yes, very, very lucky -- and he knows it. That just makes this so much better ( ... )

And killer hair = killer hare. Unless Matt Smith is biting at Arthur's ankles.

*snerks*

Matt Smith or IL gov Blago...both men have killer hair that threatens the safety of all...

After Monty Python's 'Holy Grail,' how could I resist? ;)

Talk about another total kink. I don't think I could attempt a Merlin/Arthur story and *not* work it in, no matter how cracky the fic. The 'verse just demands it.

*hugs tight* This is a marvelous foray into a new fandom not that you need a new fandom or anything! Thank you for cheering me up and cheering me on!!

*hugs back* I don't know if I should be thanking you or cursing you for strong-arming me into the fandom. ;) But definitely glad it worked for you! *G* Hope you get through this week without pulling all your hair out or yelling at stupid clients over the phone!

I .. er ... ngh. Incoherency has struck; that was just way too hot for words, and I love the unexpected ending of Arthur knowing about Merlin's secret. *mems* ♥

Oh, and: And you have no idea how hard it was to type 'Merlin' instead of 'Ianto.'

HAHAHA YES, THIS IS JUST TOO DAMN TRUE.

That was rather coherent for incoherency... ;)

I reeeeeally hope they have enough series of this show so we (the audience) can get that 'reveal' otherwise I'm going to be sorely disappointed with the show! Can you imagine? *guh* - such pretty thoughts ...

Thanks foe reading!!

This was literally amazing... Funny and hot and exactly, exactly what I wanted to read! I especially enjoyed Arthur's tiny, unexpected piece at the end, after having so many Merlin thoughts, and having him know anyway! Brilliant - he's a fiend, that prince! You have to keep writing in this fandom. I'm sort of demanding it! :D

Thank you so much! Glad it hit the spot. Have to admit - I'm a total whore for 'Arthur finds out/knows' fics so no matter how cracky the story, I'll probably work it in some how ;)

Keep writing in the fandom? Noooo.....well, okay, so I currently have an idea that's labeled 'The Pile' bouncing around in my head, but just ... must.not.give.in.to.temptation.

*mrphs at pretty boys in shiny armor doing slashy thing*

Thanks for reading!
