Hi and stuff, I hope you guys aren't having too stressful a December?
I've got family coming on the 20th, so the next fortnight is just gonna be my on my hands and knees (shut up) trying to make this place spotless.
Tis the season to get high on cleaning chemical fumes :\
Anyway, the point of this entry? Some fic recs for you! You've still got it, Merlin writers ♥
This tumblrfic by skellerbvvt (PG, possibly M/A pre-slash). I don't think it has a name. But it's about Merlin being a cyborg, so where can you go wrong, I ask you? The best news? Skeller is apparently writing more. Moooooore.
Hold On To What We Are by anonymous to be revealed at a later date (M/A, NC-17, ~11k). Four words: zombie apocalypse Christmas fic. If that doesn't float your boat, you can't be helped, I'm afraid. This is lovely writing right here, with the author cleverly balancing grim and domestic, isolation and camaraderie.
Ancient Methods of Roasting Chickens by fleete (PG-13, OT4, ~6k). Gah, this fic. Not ashamed to say I had happy tears in my eyes at end. This is everything you could want from a reincarnation fic. The relationships between the four are complex and hard and there are consequences in every life; long-lasting from their first lives, to immediate and dangerous in specific time periods they're reborn into. And the author's take on magic is just gorgeous. It's sparse, but every time it was mentioned, I got a little starry-eyed. Anyhoo, read this if you want your soul to sparkle.

I'm somewhat of a bottom!Arthur ~connoisseur~, so when
katie_andrew asked for a list of my fave bottom!Arthur fics, I was on it like, well, Merlin on Arthur. I was just gonna shoot her an email but then a couple of my other twitter followers seconded the request and I was all, well, why not make an LJ post and spread the love like, well, Merlin spreads Arthur's legs.

Hey cool dudes, I hope you're all well ♥
Colin Morgan continues to be the bane of my existence.

Outrageous. To quote the best (anon) comment I've ever seen about him, Goddammit he's turning into a hot pokemon trainer.
he can catch me any time
this explains the Gyarados in his pants
id like to play with his pokéballs, if you know what I mean
(I'm sorry. Please have a nice day despite these jokes.)

Porn! Is it possible to have another wanking fest just for this gif, because daaaaamn.
Colin! With the hair! And YET ANOTHER Death Cab shirt! And the baggy jeans! AND SOCK FEET! And, true story, every time I see the picture with the character artwork in the background and the shirtless person that MIGHT! POSSIBLY? !! be him? I wrap my arms around myself, let the gentle Autumn breeze catch in my hair and, staring into the distance, I utter unto the universe, "please". Shirtless!Colin prayercircle, fandom, c'mon. We can make it happen if we BELIEVE.
Arrested Development! MAY 26 MAY 26 MAY 26. WHO'S EXCITED? I'm rewatching the series in preparation, but if you don't have time before the new season, this should get you there -
Community! It's been kind of ordinary, right? :( There's been a couple of jokes that have been as good as ever, but for the most part, it hasn't really had me laughing.
Vikings! LAGERTHA, MY LIGHT, MY LOVE *__________* And also -starts threesome chant-. PLZ.
Discussion! So, it's been a few months since Merlin ended and I know a lot of us are still sad, and it got me thinking a bit about Merlin and how he'd be feeling. So my question for you is, in canon, three months on (now almost four), where do you think Merlin is? Emotionally, physically. Basically, what's your Merlin headcanon for the months after Arthur dies?

I made the mistake of rereading this fic by suntipped when I woke up at a ridiculous hour early this morning.
