Written for the [livejournal.com profile] merlin_flashfic Winter challenge - approx. 8000 words of winter, Arthur being intrepid and mild slashiness of the Merlin/Arthur variety. Thanks as usual to [livejournal.com profile] torakowalski for the beta work (one day I will put commas in the correct places, one day...)

Summary: The first snows of winter have fallen and Arthur has Merlin to find and a test to pass out in the cold, or neither of them will make it back to Camelot.

Winter's Trial
janne_d: (merlinarthurfront)
In a striking departure from established behaviour, I managed to get an idea and write it up before the latest [livejournal.com profile] merlin_flashfic challenge was over.

So here it is: 7500 words of cracky fairytale AU, in which Arthur is not a princess, Merlin gets his wand out, Morgana is a damsel intent on causing distress and nobody goes to the ball.

Fear Not, Fair Prince!

Written for the Transformation challenge:

In Turning We Come Around Right. 12990 words (hence the not-quite-flashfic), Merlin/Arthur, R. Arthur wakes up changed, and that changes everything else.

"Arthur?" Merlin said, closing the door and then setting the tray on the table and taking a few steps nearer. "Is everything –" he began and cut himself off as Arthur stood up and turned around. "Arthur?" he squeaked, suddenly very glad that he'd put the tray down.

I've seen this floating around a bit lately so I guess that means it's time to look back again.

List of stories I've written in 2008:

Stargate: Atlantis:
A Brief Encounter (SGA/Torchwood crossover, Rodney/Jack, PG-13, prequel to A Holiday Humour)
Something New Under the Sky and the sequel Forms of Friendship (SGA/Buffy crossover, Teyla/Faith, PG)
The Finest Clothes Beneath (sequel to Naked Under These Clothes, John/Rodney, NC-17)

Torchwood:
Come On With the Rain (Jack/Ianto, PG)

Merlin:
First Night (tag to episode 1, gen)
The Worst Servant (drabble, gen)
And None But We Can Be Such Kings (Merlin/Arthur, R)
A Little Fire to Warm (Merlin/Arthur, PG-13)
Blue-eyed Death (drabble, gen, flashfic tag to episode 8)
Treason to Us (Merlin/Arthur, PG-13, flashfic)
Passing the Test (tag to episode 11, gen)
The Evil We Make (Nimueh, gen, flashfic)

and the rest of the meme )
janne_d: (loch moidart)
Figured I'd post a link to my answer to the Bad Magic challenge over here as well:

The Evil We Make

Gen, 300 odd words and Nimueh's POV. Very strange to try and do since she hasn't been in the show that much, but that was the idea I had so I went with it.

I think that Merlin could do with having a bit of a stronger Big Bad to be honest, or giving the Big Bad (or the series I suppose) a more consistent arc. It's unfair to compare I suppose, but by this point in, for example, BtVS or Doctor Who we would have been seeing the build up to the finale as the whole storyline of the last couple of episodes. But with Merlin, we're at the season finale and the last episodes have still felt like standalones.

Not that I'm not absolutely dying with excitement at seeing the finale, mind.

I hope you had a wonderful day and that the next year is full of all good things (like Merlin/Arthur and Colin and Bradley).

Anyway, have a Merlin ficlet as a present. No beta, and it doesn't really go anywhere but the idea kept hanging around so I wrote it down. Spoilers for The Labyrinth of Gedref.


Passing the Test )
janne_d: (merlin)
So I felt it was time to write the classic plot of "X gets really cold and Y has to warm him up (with naked snuggling)" and Merlin and Arthur volunteered themselves for the job.

PG-13ish for innuendo, language and the aforementioned nakedness, and beta as usual by the lovely [livejournal.com profile] torakowalski (who is getting darn good at that awkward question thing).

Arthur looked so white now he was undressed and he still hadn't woken up, though he had made a few small noises. It was unnerving to see him unmoving and helpless like this.


A Little Fire to Warm )
janne_d: (merlinarthurclose)
You guys, you guys - [livejournal.com profile] thisissirius podficced And None But We Can Be Such Kings!

There are Megaupload and Mediafire (in the comments) links in this post and it is awesome and totally rocks - I just finished listening.

*makes incoherent noises of glee*
janne_d: (merlinarthurfront)
Those bunnies have been harassing me again.

Unbetad, Arthur POV, and exactly 100 words, go me! Once again, as gen or preslash as your predilection decides.

The Worst Servant )
janne_d: (merlinarthurstare)
Somehow I wound up with two boys from the Dark Ages in my head and they wouldn't go away. Eventually I wrote it down and ended up with a little scene between Merlin and Arthur after the feast in The Dragon's Call. Roughly 1300 words and about as gen as the show itself (take that as you will). Many thanks to [livejournal.com profile] rivier for the beta.


First Night )
janne_d: (twkiss)
and because I suck at the drabble concept, it ended up more of a 3.5x drabble. Ooops.

So here it is, with some mild Jack/Ianto slashiness (nothing that wouldn't be on the show). I hope this improves your rainy day:

Come On With the Rain )
janne_d: (teylaleg)
A sequel to Something New Under the Sky. PG-13, slightly slashy (well, we are talking about Faith here), ~2480 words.

Many thanks to [livejournal.com profile] torakowalski for beta duty.

"Hmm. That smile is worrying. Perhaps, before I gave away all my fighting secrets, I should have asked if you were evil?" Teyla said lightly and saw Faith's mouth twist into a sharp grin.

"Not anymore. You scared?" she asked



Forms of Friendship )
janne_d: (twkiss)
For the 100crossovers challenge again. A prequel to A Holiday Humour, slash, PG-13. Ta to [livejournal.com profile] torakowalski for the beta.

"Oh, very amusing" Rodney shot back sarcastically, "with lines like that surely it should be Captain Kirk, not Harkness,"


A Brief Encounter )
janne_d: (shepyieldfull)
First fic for my 100 Crossovers deal! Gen, ~2000 words. Betaed by the most excellent [livejournal.com profile] torakowalski

Summary: An unexpected encounter on Earth.

Teyla felt the back of her neck prickle with the sudden awareness that it was too still and a thread of unease seemed to work through the night around her


Something New Under the Sky )
janne_d: (twcpn)
Hoorah. Read my rambling thoughts on the Torchwood fic "Shiny Prize" by [livejournal.com profile] lightgetsin here.

And as before, consider signing up and commentating on a fic yourself - there's still time! It's not too late!

(And thank you to [livejournal.com profile] torakowalski for checking I hadn't said anything blatantly insane in either commentary. Cheers m'dear.)
