I just thought I'd share that information, since I haven't posted in five million years. I'm working on something kind of lengthy and ambitious for me. Merlin-related. It's reaching several thousand words already and it's completely unfinished and while I know the direction I want to go with it, I seem to be absolutely STUCK and if there's anybody out there that cares enough to give it a read-through and tell me what sucks and maybe suggest where to go from here ...

Well, awesome. I have nothing to give you in return.

Has anyone else seen the BBC series, Terry Jones' Medieval Lives? 

Terry's that genius fellow from the Monty Python cabal and he's done this educational sort of myth buster mini-series featuring the different roles of certain medieval archetypes. There are 8 episodes, progressing from peasant to king and the full episodes are featured on YouTube.com!

Now, I know not all of the information would apply to Merlin since the presence of magic clearly implies, under the best of circumstances, a little historical tweaking. And I haven't watched all of them since I'm elbows deep in Supernatural episodes I have shamefully been putting off watching. So I can't give a fully informed review of the series, but I know a fellow who's been watching them and he says they're pretty much the awesome.

So, here's the link: Terry Jones' Medieval Lives

It's totally possible that I'm way behind the trend on this find, but I've never heard mention of it before. Still, out of fear of making an ass of myself, I'm not posting it to any communities. Just here.

Title: Strength and Flexibility
Word Count: ~2000
Pairing: Arthur/Merlin
Rating: NC-17
Disclaimer: Merlin is owned by BBC and Shine, not me.
Spoilers: None.
Warnings: PWP. Oral sex.
Summary: A choice is made for Arthur.
A/N: This is the fourth in a series. First was Humanity, then Out of Character, then Mechanics. You need not bother with any of them to comprehend this one, though it could possibly help set the tone. It's unbeta'd, as always, because I am without a beta. How does one go about getting one of those, anyhow? Sacrificial slaughterings? Point me to the altar.
