quick recs

A couple quick Merlin recs before I'm MIA for the weekend.

trrrnch (smile, smile, smile) by [livejournal.com profile] joan_waterhouse [PG-13] (2k)
Summary: And then was now and now was then, and all the ages were but one, and the pain that tore his heart to pieces ripped from his soul Magic.
Reincarnation fic, Read the warnings on the post if you need to. This little 2k fic tugged at my heartstrings from the first sentence to the last. A wonderful collection of moments in Arthur and Merlin’s lives, full of hope, sorrow, romance and destiny. *blinks back tears*


Type/Safe by [livejournal.com profile] skellerbvvt Merlin/Gwaine [NC-17] (4k)
Summary Merlin didn’t like to think he was predictable. He just happened to be very fond of muscular men who saved his life and were nice to him. It didn’t mean he was easy, it just meant that he had a type. Lots of people had types. It was perfectly reasonable to have a type.
A fun and very sexy Merlin/Gwaine with just enough mention of Arthur that I didn’t feel like my OTP’d been forgotten.



hmm... Thinking about doing a Gwaine rec list... Like my Merlin/Arthur rec lists but for all things that read and love that is Gwaine related. y/n?

Hee! It'd be small for now, but with hopes of it growing. :D

Is there enough out there to do Gwaine recs? I think I catch most of them except the KMM ones. So, yea, but I don't know your FL tastes...

The rec list would be small, certainly. But it would be a place I could put all my odds Gwaine recs (Like Gwaine ART *cough* and Gwaine/Merlin and Gwaine/Merlin/Arthur and maybe Eoin recs?) So that they are together in one place if that's useful to people.

(and I'd rather do it now while it's small, than a yr from now when trying to find all my recs is a bugger).

*ponders*

Ponder no more, do it! :) Oh I'm good at telling other people to take time out of their precious day to do things that will benefit me! *chuckles*

[identity profile] leashy-bebes.livejournal.com 2010-10-29 06:34 pm (UTC)(link)
YES TO THE LIST. A HUNDRED TIMES YES.

ah! but will you help me fill it up? Ready to put your pen where your mouth is?

;)

How's your hand, bb???

SO READY. May or may not be 5000 words into a modern AU Gwaine/Lancelot >.> <.< >.>

blistered. do you believe that shit? D:

[identity profile] marguerite-26.livejournal.com 2010-10-29 06:45 pm (UTC)(link)
SQUEE!!!! Gwaine/Lancelot!!! Very interesting. *grabby hands*

WHAT? shit. You poor thing! Do you have any aloe? it's like MAGIC.

I thought modern AU!Gwaine would be really difficult, but I am having the most fun ever.

I have cream with aloe in? Not proper stuff, but it's like intensive after-sun moisturiser. that might help I guess, it does feel very cooling when it goes on

OK, I am not in Merlin fandom at all, but one of my favourite fic-writers ever wrote Merlin/Arthur with some Merlin/Arthur/Gwen that you need to read. Advisor to the King (http://sam-storyteller.dreamwidth.org/160025.html) by [livejournal.com profile] sam_storyteller.

Oh, thank you! *bookmarks* :)

Oh, I always vote for more rec lists. I wouldn't follow that particular one, but I know a lot of people would find it useful and starting now while the list is more manageable would likely be better than waiting.

Oh and enjoy your weekend!!

DO IT. I loved your Arthur/Merlin reclist; in fact, I think more than half of my delicious bookmarks are composed from your recommendations.

Here, I've already found a few M/G fics that I enjoyed... I can't wait for epic length fanfic though. :)
