My secret Santa for gouachemole . sorry it's late! After Freya's death, Merlin is struggling under the weight of his guilt and grief, unable to move on. The thought of her steals into his head, invading his dreams, and hijacking his every thought. The world around him continues to turn, his friends oblivious as ever. But does Arthur see more than Merlin gives him credit for? Tbh, I figured out how to use tumblr messaging the day before yesterday, so I panicked and somehow this was what came out?! Sorry anyway, but I think it ended up okay, and I hope you like it! :)

Pairing: Arthur/Gwaine, future Merlin/Arthur Pendragon implied. Rating: Mature Prompt: Arthur/Gwaine, but could be Athur/Merlin/Gwaine too. Please no Merwaine. PG+ Arthur's upset when his best friend Merlin gets dumped by some sleezy grifter, but when he goes to confront the man, he's nothing Arthur expected. For one thing, he's never slept with a man before. 

Written for Violet for BBCMerlinSecretSanta! I’m afraid I never got your tumblr username, so I can’t tag you or message you, but I hope your gift finds its way to you somehow. I’m afraid I’m not very good at writing directly shippy things, but I hope the Morgana/Arthur that I did get in there is to your liking. 

Summary: They don't normally DO this. Any of this, really. The drunk office sex, the awkward dancing around each other, the-- Okay, maybe they do the awkward part pretty often, but the rest is rather new. Thank god for mistletoe, even if it's recycled. It still works the second time around.

Here’s my secret santa contribution for esmerod :) hope you enjoy it!
