Because, you know, I need a new fandom like a hole in the head

Dear LJ,

Today I slept a great deal and watched four episodes of Merlin. It was a good day.

Okay, I should have trusted you all in your infinite wisdom from the get-go. IT'S AWESOME. I love Merlin, he's adorable! I love the way all the plots are incredibly predictable! I love Richard Wilson and Anthony Head! I LOVE Gwen and Morgana!

I can has Morgana/Gwen recs now, plz? I mean, yes yes, the Arthur/Merlin, oh it is blatant, and omg Merlin/Gwen is so cute I can hardly stand it, but I am blindsided by the Gwen/Morgana. Like the episode where everyone's dying of the icky plague thing, and Gwen gives one flower to Merlin (n'awwww) and ALL THE REST TO MORGANA, hee! ♥ ♥ ♥

Also, I hear tell the episodes actually get a lot better soon? I am excited! :D

Also, though I'm not allowing myself to dive into the exchange properly until my own story is finished and submitted, grah, [livejournal.com profile] rs_small_gifts has started posting! And all looks wondrous. What I did manage to read was the following, and it was excellent:

Waiting For The Great Leap Forward, by [livejournal.com profile] woldy
Harry Potter ; Remus/Sirius ; PG-13
Four winters in Remus' life, told backwards.

This is a wonderfully intelligent story, on class differences and politics and how Remus and Sirius fell apart. It's quite a bit heartbreaking, but in such a plausible way, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
