[FIC]
I've Built My Dreams Around You by Ceebee
Merlin/Arthur [Nc-17] (11k)
Summary: “Fuck that,” Arthur gasped, the chill from Merlin’s touch zinging through his body like electricity, and decided in that moment that if he was going to find out Merlin’s vocal range then he didn’t have the self-restraint to be professional about it.

yum! age disparity! Merlin is student at the school where Arthur teaches. I was surprised as I started reading and discovered this is an est. relationship fic which is very rare for age disparity because a lot of the awesome tension of getting together and overcoming the ~wrongness is what interests people in age disparity fic. But this one has the pleasure of both (we discover the pre-relationship struggles through flashbacks) but also benefit from the est. relationship to get to the story rarely told (how to make a relationship like this actually WORK). Beyond all that you have Arthur as a choir director and Merlin with a mysterious backstory about why Arthur’s never heard Merlin sing. It all works into a lovely read.

thx to sapphirescribe for the rec. ALSO. She's is collecting a Multifandom Age Gap Rec List.

Frankly, I don't even know where to start... *eyes all my rec lists* *eyes to-do list*

BUT! If you are interested in adding to her list (there's an easy form to fill out!)

That drawing is hilarious and the fic is just the right length to shoehorn in before the laundry comes out of the wash *runs to read*
