sophinisba: Morgana smiling from ep 2.03 (morgana happy by gwy)
I loved the Arthur/Merlin transfic that got posted at [livejournal.com profile] camelotsolstice yesterday! It's a modern AU where Arthur is starting his life over in a new town and moves in with Merlin and gets to know Merlin's friends. Goodness that sounds boring the way I described it. But the Arthur characterization is just wonderful, how he's kind of an entitled jerk and at the same time such a sensitive angsty bunny and noble and awesome in his own way, and Merlin is ♥ ♥ and the secondary characters (including Gwaine and Freya) are so well drawn and interesting. Some general spoilers that might help some people decide whether to read: There's some angst in the middle but nobody dies or gets raped, and then there's porn and a super happy ending! Actually it's the first time I can remember finishing a transfic with a stupid grin on my face.

Little Wooden Boy and the Belly of Love by Anonymous, Arthur/Merlin, 14,000 words, NC-17.

I'm so curious to find out who wrote it! It looks like the reveal will be toward the end of January. speculation! )
