Notes: Aaaaa. Arthur's POV is just the best here! He is so so sweet and stupid and emotionally stunted, and his endless attempts at getting his heart to stfu are so hilarious misguided, but he was also perfect and brave and strong and in-character. This is the Arthur I wanted to see in the show. Also, it's just so nice to read this because it has plot, and great writing, but no conflict or stress really, so it's really soothing for the soul. This fic just makes me laugh and smile a lot. Tbh, this might be my favorite Merthur fic of all time, and it's definitely my favorite canon au. The perfect balance of everything.

Notes: Massive thanks to @chenrise for her incredibly insightful and thorough beta job, as well as for her guidance and suggestions about the title and summary. Many hearts also to @kimjongkey, who made fabulous graphics for me!

Comment: This story was so upbeat and amusing I loved it. I loved that it was from Arthur’s POV and we could see how much he loved and wanted Merlin, but couldn’t see how much Merlin wanted him too. I loved his inner monologues and the situation they found themselves in was very funny. I really liked how blunt and open Arthur was about his feelings when they finally admitted them to one another.

Comment: This story is so fluffy and lovely! I loved seeing Merlin from Arthur’s perspective and how Arthur adored all of Merlin’s little traits, even if he wouldn’t admit it to himself. Both characters were really well written and the story was brilliant from start to finish.

No smut and I don’t even care! This is so so lovely and Funny! I love it!

Read it :)
