Title: With Eyes of Gold
Author: [info]emmy8495
Paring: Merlin/Arthur
Rating: R (overall)
Warnings: none for this chapter
Spoilers: No, it's AU
Disclaimer: Nope, I don't own them. *cries*
Summary: Throughout the lands rumors began about a young magical and immortal being that could cause the fall of a kingdom in a blink of an eye. King Uther, fearful that this being will fall into the hands of his enemies, has him sought out and captured. When a wild and powerful Emrys is finally caught by the Prince of Camelot, Uther’s plans to unleash the being upon his foes is challenged by the most unlikely person: Prince Arthur himself.
A/N: It's been a while since I last wrote anything that was not the gibberish of NaNoWriMo. Also, I have no beta, so forgive me and point out the errors. Though... if anyone would like to be my beta, I'd love you forever.

A big thank you to [info]lazy_8s, [info]sunstar77, [info]ice_glitterati, and [info]a_silver_story, who have made my user profile pretty :o)

My question: Who is the first person to sing on the original recording of Do they Know it's Christmas?




I went to the box office at the Princess of Wales, and Simon Burke doesn't start actual performances till tomorrow.... They also gave me a code for discount tickets, because the Mirvish theatres don't do rush, standing room, or student tickets.

And I told a woman to take her job and shove it today. I think I shocked her, and she seemed to back down, but by then it was too little too late.


Oh and Tiger Woods, totally scheevy, but I bet David Letterman is REALLY glad that this story taking the attention away from him...

ETA: Oh and Bruce Springsteen got a Kennedy Center honor... Really cool, just makes him seem REALLY old...

I'm officially HOME FROM UNI now! It feels goooood. I slept in the car all the way back, napped when I got home and THEN got 13 hours of uninterrupted sleep and finally feel about human again. So far I've (slept) messed around, failed to unpack and spent some time over at [info]xaritomene's getting her further hooked on BSG (joining the many ranks of my converts, currently including my flatmates, a fair portion of our college CU by extension, my BFF and my mum. Not doing too badly if I do say so myself).

Tomorrow I break out the books and get started on my desperate homg revision, by which I mean actually reading my texts in the original Latin/Greek for the first time because I'm a moron, but let's not go there. I also need to get going on my [info]merlin_santa fic, two fics for [info]tobreakthespell and my [info]pilotsbigbang fic (was I insane when I signed up for that? Quite possibly. I don't even have an idea at this point in time), as well as a couple of other random things and that MI7 AU which I have, at least, been making progress on. I'M SO LOOKING FORWARD TO HAVING WRITING TIME YOU HAVE NO IDEA :D

So, how are all of you doing? I've fallen behind with my flist, so tell me, anyone have any plans for the holiday? You guys at home? Still working? Running away to start a new life in Tibet?

Also, thank you to everyone who's been giving out the snowflake cookies! They're awesome and prettiful ♥! You guys rock.

EDIT: ahahaha, guess what just came onto ITV? 'Inside MI5 - the Real Spooks'. OH HAI SERENDIPITOUS FIC RESEARCH!
