Hey

I’m trying to dive into more Jily, do you have a favorite fic that you’ve made or a favorite that you recommend?

Hope you have a great day/night 😊

Hi Nena! Thanks for the Ask 💗

My favourite fic I’ve written is Forget-Me-Not (which is what the snippet you saw is from) but PLEASE don’t read it yet. I’m basically rewriting the whole thing rn 😅

Some of my favourites from other authors are (in no particular order):

• Jingle—Holy Fuck by theesteemedladydebourgh

• Between the Desire and the Spasm by uncertainwallflower

• The Last Enemy (series) by chdarling (I’m not even up-to-date with TLE but I love the writing style so much already).

There are plenty other great ones out there but these are just three that come to mind first. ALSO I limited myself to macro fics (as opposed to micro) because if I got started I think we’d be here forever. (Always willing to rec some micros if that’s what you’re after though.)

Hope this was of some help and have a great day/night too ☺️

Good news: the Merlin Inbox™ is now open!! Ask our favorite secret warlock any question you like! Or any two questions, or three, or ten!! 

This blog adheres to the canon timeline between S4 and S5, so everything except the final season is a given here. 

Merlin is twenty-four, and has been in Camelot for six years at this point.

All cursing is fine + off-color jokes/questions, but please, not anything too NSFW. 

Canon pairings are canon. Single Merlin is very single. 

Canon timeline is canon, somewhere in the 13th or 14th century 

Mun can’t draw to save a life, so asks will be answered with reaction images/gifs. 

That’s about it! Go forth and flood the Merlin Inbox™!

Currently trying to distract Arthur so Merlin and I need you to send me some asks for him to answer

He can’t resist answering them, and Merlin says he’ll answer some too.

6, 8, 24, 25!

6. Do you have your work beta'd? How important is this to your process?

I do! Bella (@uncertainwallflower) betas for me (and vice versa) and she is so so helpful. I find we have different ways of approaching writing so we pick up on things the other has glazed over all the time. Where oh where would I be without her?

8. Do you prefer the beginning, middle, or end of a story?

Okay, this is a tough one. I think I like the ends of stories the most because I like seeing how every little detail throughout has culminated in that ending, especially if it's a tragic one.

24. Worst writing advice anyone ever gave you?

Not starting sentences with and or but. Simple as that.

25. What fic do you wish you got more of a response on?

Some of my favourite micros didn't garner much response. At first, I wished that they had, but now it just inspires me to improve my writing.
