I agree, this is quite cliché, but it still works well, and it's nice to read. Thank you !

Very kind of you to say!! I have a thing for cliché stories myself and I'm glad you could enjoy my fic in spite of the lack of originality :D

Thank you very much for the awesome comment <3

Well, if you're really like cliché, I would be delighted if you wrote something about the very cliché CEO!Arthur/PA!Merlin... :p

I must admit I prefer my AUs to add magic or dragons where there's none in canon rather than the opposite, but I'll think about it! ;)

You rock :), I don't think is so cliche, I just totally love it :)

I really enjoyed the fact that Arthur did had feelings for Merlin that where true and also how Merlin totally fell for Arthur with just a few changes in his character, just 'cause of him being more open and all!!!

And then ending??? Argh, so much love there!!! :), Great story!! be well!!!

Awwww thank you so much, I'm grinning like crazy over there now!

I'm so glad that you enjoyed the development of the boys' feelings - and yeah, the way Merlin is already so devoted to Arthur in the series where, honestly, Arthur doesn't treat him very well, makes me think he'd fall crazily in love if the Prince just gave him the time of the day every once in a while ^^

Very glad you loved the ending, it took me like six months to write it xD so I was quite anxious about that!

Thanks a thousand times for the lovely review, it means a lot <3

Oooh what a great thing to say! I'm CONSTANTLY rereading the fics I like best, more than I've ever reread books for example, but I regularly wonder if I'm the only one to do so. Knowing you think my fic is worth rereading is...so awesome I can't find words describing how awesome it is.
Thanks a thousand times for the lovely comment! <3

Cliche, but I think you wrote it lovely ^_________^ I love how Arthur was like, all protective and open, when he was under the influence of the potion. And a confused Merlin is just adorable XD

Very glad you thought it was well-done, what a nice thing to say!

And I agree, Arthur being all protective makes my feet tingle (don't ask) - like in the episode with Freya and the horrible guy who wanted to torture our favorite Warlock. As for Merlin, I do love him competent as well, but he's too much fun when he's confused xD

Thanks for the truly lovely comment <3
