Where I End and You Begin (The Sky is Falling In) by [livejournal.com profile] suntipped [NC-17] (25k)
Summary: In which Merlin is Arthur's best friend's younger brother.
This fic has age disparity so I was all over it. *g* Arthur is uni age and Merlin is 16 (and Lancelot’s little brother). It’s a great angsty tale of emotionally stunted Arthur whose been seriously messed up by his absentee father. He’s incredibly lonely and insecure, despite all his bravado. The triangle of the Arthur and Lancelot friendship (and the importance of that friendship to Arthur) and the Arthur and Merlin (lust/love/need) is really well played. A lovely achey sort of fic with some damn hot moments.

Catapult by [livejournal.com profile] lolafeist [PG-13] (6k)
Summary: Merlin gets his first taste of war when he helps Camelot's army fight magical beasts.
A wonderful post-S3 future fic, taking place a year after 3.13. Excellent characterisation and I love the style used here, a series of short scenes with varying points of view made this fic fast paced and tight, without compromising the action and emotion of it. Well done.

Arthur's Christmas Carol by [livejournal.com profile] clevermonikerr [NC-17] (15k)
Summary: It's Christmas Eve, and a ghost shows Arthur what his life could have been like had he made different choices.
Originally I assumed this fic was a true ‘Christmas Carol’ with the three ghosts and great details of what a shitty life Arthur has lead which sounded very depressing, but instead it was more of a “The Family Man” type of story with a few great twists. I really enjoyed it.

Also:


I won’t be writing, but I’ll be *grabby hands* all over the fic/art. :)

And don't forget, [livejournal.com profile] merlin_holidays reveals tomorrow. Get your comments in now, if you want to comment while it's still anon.

I cried so hard reading that first fic. Ugh.


OMG [livejournal.com profile] paperlegends I'm so glad your sign ups are in a month because I don't know if the plot of the fic I've got in my head can REACH 30k. GAH.

I just kept wanting to hug Arthur, then hug Merlin and ... make them hug each other. Also to shake Lancelot until he got it! *cries*

Oh, I hope you write a big bang. :) I know the plot in my head COULD reach 30k easily, but I'm squishing it into 10. /o\
