Hee, thank you!

This is a great fic, thanks for sharing it with us! Funny and very enjoyable. I liked how you described Arthur's reaction to finding out Merlin is a sorcerer, a tantrum, a week of not talking, and a week of taunting him. I can so imagine Arthur doing that.
And what I liked best was the matching dress Merlin wore...
Very well done.

Glad you liked it! And I figure, given time to properly react to the magic thing, Arthur would throw a few tantrums - in some respects he hasn't really aged past the terrible twos, after all. ;P

I really enjoyed this story. I love Merlin's voice here and how he couldn't quite refuse Arthur even if he didn't know what he's doing exactly. And great use of the glass slippers as conduit for the enchantment. It's great fun all around! Thanks for sharing.

I really wanted to use the glass slippers in this story, from the beginning; I've always had a problem understanding how they would work, if they weren't obviously magical. And of course they gave Merlin more to freak out about. ;D Glad you enjoyed Merlin's narration!

That was a indeed a very fluffy and lovely strory that made my morning much better. Thank you!

Yay, glad I could help!

This is a fantastic read! I love the canon!twist on the fairy tale, especially how Merlin's magic made his and Arthur's clothing *match* - squee! That was just too cuuuute! *dances happily*

The pacing was awesome, characterisation spot on (I thought Morgana was particularly well done) and the dialogue! <3 I quite like your little omc too, I think he should have an reappearance somehow. :D

Love it!

Well it's Merlin's magic, so of *course* it would make them match. XD

Characterization is always my main concern in fics, so I'm relieved to know I succeeded. The fun thing about Morgana is that I didn't even intend for her to be in it - she held a coup. Glad you liked Winston too, the poor guy. ;D
