Pairing: Merthur

Rating: T

Summary:  No one was around to hear him when at long last, the young warlock sank to his knees, shaking all over as wrecked sobs tore themselves out of his throat. No one was around to see him when the greatest sorcerer who ever lived curled into a ball on the shore, moaning long and low, "Arthur… Arthur… Arthur… Arthur, please… please come back to me…"

Review: This fanfict was incredibly emotionally moving for me. It gives you the immediate aftermath you wanted of what is going through Merlin's head after Arthur's death. This fanfict surprised me in that it wasn't too "over the top" as I noticed many of the other fanficts I read in response to the aftermath were. The author did a great job in keeping the characters exactly as they are meant to be and not making them "fall apart" by making them more emotional or irrational as I've seen in the past with others who have written an aftermath story. The fanfict as a whole was well written and well thought out. I feel though, that I would have liked to have seen more of Gaius' and Hunith's reactions to Arthur's death as well as to Merlin's grief. I feel they would have given him more than a hug and a kiss and left him alone; especially Hunith.  I look forward to reading more from this author for sure.

Dear lovely merthurrus tagged me and I feel bad because I wanted to tag them in the first place but then I thought they wouldn't answer..So, ah, yeah. Strawberry milk everyone ^_^

What do you love most abouttumblr?  That I got to know so many brilliant people and I learned about A LOT of stuff and began my adventure to the WONDERLAND OF FANGIRLING and became less lonely

What do you want to read in a fanfict? I don't really understand the question. Like, genre? Plot? I like stories that are stories, not just AU stuff. I like things like "Pianos are made for falling" or "Like it's one-nine-nine-nine" [sorry, dysfunctional keyboard].

What is the most adventurous thing you’ve ever done? I always do adventurous things :D Because I don't have an iota of self-preservation. I'm scared of heights to death, but I climbed a mountain and jumped w/ a parachute, so, ah. Let's pick that ^_^

Favourite Book? I can't :D Errrm. Really. But I have a prepared answer for this kind of questions, so here we go: The Magic Bed Knob; or, How to Become a Witch in Ten Easy Lessons. It was one of the first books I've ever read, I was six years old. And I decided it was my favourite within ALL the books. hehe ^_^

Something you’re incredibly proud of? A lotlotlot of things I've done. But mostly - that I'm strong enough to be still alive, to fight with myself every day.

Top five OTPs? :D Merthur/Brolin, 'coz we've all seen the way they look at each other ;] ; Cherik [XMFC]; Pablo+Marizza [Rebelde Way yaaaay]; Sid+Cassie [Skins], and I really can't think of one more =] Oh wait, I can - Shane+Carmen [The L Word]

First fanfiction website you posted on? I...never did? :D

How many fandoms are you a part of?Erm..Supernatural, Doctor Who, Sherlock, Merlin, Skins, Harry Potter I guess? , Sugar Rush lol. I watch some other things, but I'm not in fandom, I guess..I'm going to watch GoT and the Avengers soon ^_^

Top 5 favourite actors? Ah, favourite again?? '] Okaaay. Colin Morgan, obviously. Because he's talented and charming. Michael Fassbender, because you can't see the actor when you look at the character and vice versa. Aaron Johnson. Nicholas Hoult. And Jackie Chan :D

A talent you’re well known for? Fucking everything up?

How long have you known your closest friend? four years. But he's not here any more, unfortunately

Yay ^_^ Now, as I want to make up for the first time when I didn't tag you, I tag YOU now ^_^ And here are the questions:

My questions: [hehehehehehe]

- What is your the very first thought when you see the stars?

- Do you like strawberry milk? [soy strawberry milk?]

- Why is that all the languages are so alike and so different at the same time?

- Is Russian swearing the worst and the most inappropriate in the world?

- What do you feel when you hear the word “love”? What colour, what smell, what taste? Just, what do you feel

- Do you brush your teeth before or after breakfast?

- When you were a child, why did you think there was a thunder? Like bo-booom from the sky [I thought that’s because clouds got upset and were arguing with each other]

- What is your the most favourite fairy tale? The one you can read over and over again and still have feelings

- Please, please, write me your favourite poem. Or any good poem. It can be very short. Just..something that you really, really feel.

- Do you like butterflies?
