May-12th-2013 11:19 am - The Big 24
TheBig24


Join us on May 25-26th for a 24-hour live broadcast full of multi-fandom fun and entertainment as we try to raise money for HIV/AIDS research. We'll be hosting fandom meta hours, discussion panels, games, prize-winning contests, cosplay tutorials, a fandom auction, and much more. All pairings in all fandoms are welcome, including Merlin/Arthur.

Currently, we're looking for volunteers to help out. We need more hosts, but if you're not up for that, it could be something as small as helping promote the event to offering fic or art for Quest prizes. And, of course, there's donating to the cause. However you can help, we're happy to accept it. To volunteer, visit our volunteer sign-up post.

To find out more about the event, visit thebig24, or find us on Facebook, Twitter, or Tumblr.

Merlin Sword
Title: Of Faith and Hope and Love
Pairing: Arthur/Merlin
Supporting Characters: Aithusa, Agravaine, Gaius, Gwen, Knights
Rating: PG-13
Length: 30k words
Genre: Adventure, Reveal, Divergent AU from The Secret Sharer (s04e07)
Summary: To lose a manservant once may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose him twice looks like carelessness. When Merlin vanishes in the mines of Kemeray, Arthur's search for him uncovers decades of secrets and betrayals. But the sudden appearance of a baby white dragon bodes well for Albion, for Merlin and Arthur, and for the land that they will build together.

Arthur is supposed to be the king. He prepared his entire life for this, and now that it's here, now that he's actually doing it, he feels completely lost. Morgana is still trying to kill him, he has a traitor in his court, and he no longer knows who he can trust or who he should listen to or what the right thing to do is. If Merlin was here, Arthur could rant and ramble at him until things began to make sense. But without him...

Merlin's absence gnaws at him like something worse than hunger.
