wait what do these half a dozen fics say, that EVERYONE IS SLEEPING WITH EACH OTHER?? that morgana is susan warrior princess and she and gwen sleep in the same bed and that even MERLIN'S MOTHER SHIPS MERLIN/ARTHUR?? PARENTAL APPROVAL WHAT. and omg merlin's ex-boyfriend <3333333333!!!!! i want the fic where merlin and will climb trees and hunt rabbits and are stupid boys, lying around in fields of heather shooting the shit and all HALCYON DAYYYS.

you know, come to think of it, i can't imagine an O11 AU of merlin, everyone is too much of a goddamn flailbot. (GWEN: less of a flailbot around arthur!! omg they bring out the best in each other!)

but i can read this O11!narnia for aaaages.


when edmund comes in, peter has lucy, tumnus, and caspian roped into a poker game so, naturally, edmund takes a seat.

lucy frowns at him from behind her cards. "you're looking a little barneyed, aren't you?"

"...what?" says edmund, as peter deals him in.

"troubled," tumnus translates tonelessly.

"fell down the apples and pears?" she goes on.

"...uh," says edmund.

"stairs," tumnus offers.

peter sighs. "it's been like this all night."
