Hi. This is a great blog btw. I don't suppose you have any merthur fics based on the events of 'Sweet Dreams' (I believe s2e8)? Preferably ones that don't end up with either of them dead? Thank you

So as much as I love the fics where Merlin's pining over Arthur and Arthur is oblivious, do you know of any where Arthur is pining and Merlin is oblivious?

We both picked five of our favorites for this one. It may not seem like a lot, but we have plenty of more pining fics to come in the future. So keep an eye out!

title: And This is How I See You

author: anonymous

rating: teen+

word count: 15565

warnings: none

summary: For months now they've been casually meeting in the lobby of their building, and Merlin's been harbouring a (totally not creepy and perfectly normal and not at all pathetic) crush on his neighbour, Arthur. As luck would have it, they both suddenly find themselves on their own for Christmas, and well… They say there's nothing like a bit of holiday cheer to bring people together. (And pancakes. And toys. And no matter what Arthur says peppermint tea is a legitimate thing. Also cake.)

A's comments: Okay. This is bloody adorable. I honestly can't say anything about this fic better than the summary can, but I can guarantee you it's shmoopy and fluffy and sweet in the perfect way and it made me laugh aloud several times. Definitely worth the read.
