I admit I hid behind my eyes at the reveal. Poor Merlin! Stupid Bernard.

The concerened guards who were worried about their prince harming Merlin? Killed me with hilarity. Aww. They were adorable.

Uther ripping up the marriage contract made me: \o/

So, ended up giggling like manic for most of the fic. And now I must read it yet again. *skips off to do so*

Hilarious and cracky and utterly enjoyable. I'm probably the only person *checks comments in several places* who thought it had a bit of a bite to it, so I'm probably reading something you didn't put there. That's my personal interpretation then, and I enjoyed that too, intended or not.

That was so funny :)It reminded me of the Blackadder episode The Queen of Spain's Beard which everyone should watch for the wedding. In fact for that reason Uther had the voice of Brian Blessed in my head :)

O wow I absolutely LOVE this story, I rarely laugh out loud so much when reading fics, but this one had me thigh slapping and everything xD
Uther ripping up the contract has got to be my favourite bit, I can just hear the "oh thank god" of sheer relief.
Really great writing style, can't resist adding to memories!

EEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!! Absolutely adorble Merlinfic!!!!!

“Don’t get too excited,” he told it. “I don’t think effort is going to be enough to get a son out of that one.”

Well, it being Merlin and all, perhaps the sequel shall be their first heir ... ;-)

This is utterly fabulous. I'm so happy to see you writing in the Merlin fandom *g*

“Perfect,” Arthur snarled. “Auspicious,” he added, and turned to stalk out of the room, coat flaring behind him.
This is possibly my favourite line because I have such a weakness for that coat. I love that coat nearly as much as I love Arthur!

It would be shorter if I don't quote all the lines that I loved. :) That was a good break from my stupid exam. Thank you for the laugh and smile!

alsdkfja loved it ♥

But I don't think linking directly to the story works, I had to shorten the url and dig around for a while before I could actually read the fic;;

The idea of this is such utter crack, what with Arthur having an arranged marriage with a man, but you somehow pulled it off amazingly. It was hilarious and sweet, and there is no way I could list all the lines I liked, but I think "Vanish from my sight, peon" is perhaps the best line ever in anything. Also, "You will be hanged in the morning," and Merlin asking for three castles for whatever will be done to him as part of lesson five, Uther's "Thank God," and Arthur's words during the ceremony. Oh, and the guards.

GAAHFDKSLNKLQW. Cross-dressing Prince!Merlin and his seduction by Arthur is JUST ABOUT THE GREATEST THING EVER. Utterly utterly fantastic. Loved the humour and the dramatic irony and all of it.

ETA: Because he didn't cross-dress and I KNOW that. *is stupid*

“Oh,” he heard Uther say in the background, ripping up a marriage contract, “thank *God*.”

*is dead*

So.Much.Love!

This was incredible fun - warped and sweet and just a teeny bit evil in the best ways.

I keep finding bits and pieces of your Merlin fic in the oddest ways, and can only hope to keep finding more.

Wonderful, thank you!
