I come bearing fic. Untitled Merlin fic. Untitled because I am lame and titles are hard to think of. Angsty, a bit of a dark-fic, mostly PG rated, maybe a moment of R for violence, character death. Short, about 1250 words. Unbetaed, so if you see any egregious errors, feel free to point and laugh.

A/N I: This is about as true to the Arthurian legends as the show, in that the places and people mentioned in the fic exist in both the show and the legends, but I extrapolate from the show and adapt from the legends as I see fit.

A/N II: This is a bit of a wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey fic, moving back and forth through time, but it should all be marked fairly clearly as to what is happening when.

( Okay, on with the show, er, fic. )

I don't know what it is about Merlin that brings out the dark, angsty fic-writer in me, but man. I just wrote over a thousand words in about an hour, something I've been mulling over for a good week or so, but hadn't done more than played around with up till today. It's not done yet and needs a good betaing, but it's angsty. I find it somewhat disturbing that I cannot write Merlin fic without killing someone off.

I wrote fic. Well, something between a drabble and a ficlet, but still. I wrote, that's the important thing.

Title: How to Win Friends and Influence People
Fandom: Merlin
Spoilers: 2x01 The Curse of Cornelius Sigan, probably won't make much sense if you haven't seen the episode.
Character: Cedric
Summary: sort of but not quite a character study of Cedric, sort of a fix for things that bugged me about 2x01.
Beta: not a soul, any illiteracy or wtfery are mine
word count: 568

( How to Win Friends and Influence People )

I bring you fic on this lovely Saturday afternoon.

Title: The Darkly Closing Clouds
Fandom: Merlin
Rating: PG-13 (some slightly mature subject matter)
Pairings: Merlin/OC, Arthur/Gwen, all off-screen as it were
Word count: approx. 6600 words
Summary: Arthur and Merlin are not much more than boys when they first meet, but everyone has to grow up sometime.
Disclaimer: I own nothing, no profit, etc.
Betaed by the superb

slightlytookish who has a knack for saying just the right thing to help me see what is or isn't working in a scene.
Spoilers: General spoilers for the entire first series, more specific ones for 1x02 (Valiant) and 1x11 (The Labyrinth of Gedref)
Warnings: peripheral character death, acknowledgement of het relationships, some of this is future fic.
A/N: This is basically my attempt to reconcile the Camelot 90210 approach to Arthurian legends as seen on the BBC (which I love, don't get me wrong), with something approximating the relationship Merlin and Arthur have in the more traditional legends.
