A couple of Merlin recs!

A few days ago I filled out the shippy meme and one of the questions asked who'd I'd like to see on a double date. Well, clearly the answer is Gwen & Morgana and Merlin & Arthur.

Well, the awesome [info] fitzette wrote an epically fabulous AU with just that set-up: the OT4 on a double date. It's Merlin/Arthur which culminates in angry sex and it's so delicious. [info] fitzette has these really gorgeous way of writing - concise and clear, tight pacing, well-placed humour and pitch perfect characterisation. Everything is spot-on, just the way I like it. ;-)

Go read Double Date here (Merlin/Arthur, NC-17, 3700 words)
"It's a good idea," Merlin interrupted, and it was. A double date was exactly what he needed to take his mind off the really inappropriate thoughts he was starting to have about his best mate. Continuing to have. Whatever, it was a good idea.

And now for a couple of multi-ship Merlin recs )

FIC: Puzzle Pieces [Gwen/Morgana, R, 500 words]

{Merlin, Gwen/Morgana, 500 words. R for a bit of sex. For [info - personal] puckling, who is unbearably kind and sweet (sorry if I'm ruining your reputation *eg*). ♥ ♥ I hope you enjoy this, hon! Unbetaed, so feel free to point out mistakes, anyone. I seem to be writing a lot of drabble sequences...}

I'm waiting to watch 2x04 tonight with an Awesome Person, and I'm dying with suspense! This doesn't contain any spoilers for 2x04, though. Not unless there's a sudden, explicit f/f sex scene, in which case, lmk, 'kay?

HP things

+ Recs: Kinky, With a Bit of Discipline by [info - personal]snegurochka_lee (Snape/Black, NC-17, a bit of bondage)

I'm not a huge fan of Snape/Black, but I gave this a shot - and you should, too. The dynamic makes for brutally hot sex - and what I really enjoyed here was the narration and point-of-view techniques. The writing is utterly refreshing from anything I've read lately.

Cigarettes Will Kill You by [info - personal]femmequixotic (Harry/Draco, mentions of Harry/Ginny, NC-17, infidelity)

Visceral. Femme does Draco's POV so, so well.

+ Fests: [info]hp_cross_fest is open now! If you're into HP cross-gen, you should consider writing! It's not an exchange this time around - it's a prompt-based fest. If you want to claim a prompt, go here. If you want to take a look at the prompts to see if any interest you, here you are: slash, femmeslash, het and moresomes.

dropping by only to flee at a moment's notice

The only fest/exchange I've participated in lately is [info]remixthedrabble. I wrote two drabbles and got two in return.

I wrote:
- Of the Old Ones (The Grudging Allies Remix) (Merlin, The Slash Great Dragon, G) for [info]xsmoonshine
- Within These Walls of Hell, Déjà-vu (The Sins Revisited Remix) (Lucius Malfoy, G) for [info - personal]benebu

I received:
- [info]xsmoonshine wrote Sweets for the sweet (The Ophelia Remix) (Gwen/Morgana, PG), which is a gorgeous remix of my ficlet, flowers and other small tokens (Gwen/Morgana, PG)
- [info]restlessme wrote Crumbled (Harry/Draco, PG-13, warning: character death) - a chilling remix of my ficlet, Waiting by a Window (H/D, PG)

Fic: Fool Me Twice [Merlin, Merlin/Arthur, Lancelot, NC-17]

Fool Me Twice by [info]bewarethesmirk
(Merlin, Merlin/Arthur with voyeur!Lancelot; NC-17; 1029 words)
Dedicated to [info]b_hallward. Happy birthday, hon! This is lacking literary merit (and a plot), but I hope you can find something to like.

Thanks to [info]misscake and [info]glass_icarus for the last minute beta! All remaining mistakes are my own.

He came to watch what he can't have. )

Fic: Quench [Merlin, Merlin/Arthur, NC-17]

Quench by [info]bewarethesmirk
(Merlin, Merlin/Arthur; NC-17; 2947 words)
Thank you to the incomparable [info]b_hallward, for all your beta help, time and advice. It has been truly invaluable.

The lovely [info]lizardspots took prompts for porny fanart and she utilised [info]derryere's prompt (Uhhh, accidental drunkenness ending in a shameful mutual handjob!) and mine (I VOTE FOR FROTTAGE. ANYWHERE, EVERYWHERE, I DON'T CARE. :D) to create this masterpiece: Like Velvet (NWS/NC-17) This piece began as a porny ficlet, but then developed a bit of context. It's cushioned in porn.

I don't understand why you insist on wearing this jacket again )

Merlin recs for the taking and the happy-making

here you are, folks. some merlin/arthur recs, most of them ones i've burned through in the last week. there some obscure recs, some really old recs and some new ones. it's a weird mix. some things everyone has read and i just got around to; some only a few of you might've read. enjoy the eccentric mix, yeah? also, there's no rps this time because, frankly, i've not read enough recently. hopefully i'll have some next time.

want past recs? check the tags!

i'm always careful, you know me )

Apr. 16th, 2009

merlin recs-a-palooza. or something.

I was thinking to my self, "It's been a long time since you've posted Merlin recs!" And then I responded, "Oh, it's not been that long; you're clearly losing track of time in your not-really old age." Turns out I was right! It's been several weeks, nearly a month, since I last posted recs! So here we go. This time there are a few Gwen/Morgana and Merlin/Morgana recs...but it's a pathetic attempt at diversity. Most are still Merlin/Arthur. And there's Bradley/Colin for all the RPS fiends.

i don't get nervous )

Merlin recs: Merlin/Arthur and Bradley/Colin

I posted these on LJ last night and thought I'd post them here for those Merlin fen lurking about.

Recs, both old and new. This is just a taste of more to come! :D

i'm willing to sleep my way to the top )

I come bearing HP and Merlin ficlets

To end my two month writing break, I took drabble requests from my flist, intending to write 100-to-200 words each. I should have known this was a doomed mission. Those drabbles took on epic-like proportions and are now ficlets of varying lengths. I am posting the first five here! The rest are on the way shortly.

In keeping with my announcement several days ago, all my fic is now public. :) All these have been beta-ed, but remaining mistakes are my own. Please feel free to offer concrit, feedback, whatever. ♥

1. For [info]everysecondtues: Gwen/Morgana - flowers and other small tokens.
Merlin. Gwen/Morgana. PG. 514 words. Beta-ed by [info]heather11483.
The metal was cold in her clenched fist, and it was both a burden and a relief to press it into Morgana’s hand. )

2. For [info]gestaltrose: Bradley/Colin - one of them RPing as their character (just acting or going all out with costume and props)
Merlin. Colin/Bradley RPS. PG. 346 words. Beta-ed by [info]heather11483.
I see you wielding a sword almost everyday. I think the novelty’s worn off. )

3. [info]nuclearsugars: Harry/Draco - blue cups, picnic
HP. Harry/Draco. PG. 332 words. Beta-ed by [info]rebekahfair and [info]heather11483.
To vodka, for it allows me to take advantage of your lightweight arse. )

4. For [info]secretsolitaire: Charlie/Teddy - rimming
HP. Charlie/Teddy. Very NC-17. Rimming. 699 words. [info]rebekahfair and [info]heather11483.
I want you to go down on me... )

5. For [info]accioscar: Colin/Bradley - Colin's hoodie! (top!Colin, plz) ;D
Merlin. Colin/Bradley RPS. NC-17. Beta-ed by [info]coffeejunkii. 942 words. (Oops.)
When Bradley opened his eyes, Colin grinned at him from above, looking rather mad with his hood pulled up and looming over Bradley like a Colin-shaped demon. )
