Author's notes: I have so many people to thank. auctorial and roflolmaomg went beyond friendship and beta'd for me. They know I can't use grammar to save my life and I appreciate their devotion and scathing comments that made this not suck. roflolmaomg, sillyshy, eldee, nuclearsugars, samsamtastic and the lovely and supportive crew at paperpushers were beyond supportive. I can not thank you all enough for the kind words that you've poured my way to help me finish this fic. I've spent hours (all hours of the day/night) whining and texting roflolmaomg, days gchating nuclearsugars and many months of panicking over at paperpushers only to be supported by some of the most talented and sexy people in the whole internet. Fuck. Yes. You all rock.

&hearts Without further ado, please enjoy this Merlin bigbang that was written in conjunction with several amazing authors at paperlegends. Please leave feedback! Seriously. Also, be sure to check out paperlegends to get links to all the other delicious fic. &hearts

I would very much like to read this, but I have limited access to the internet and have to download fics to read for later. Do you have the fic available in a single file?

[tourdefierce.livejournal.com]

Email me at Loony4lupin@gmail.com and I'll email you the doc file. Sound good?

[jane-elliot.livejournal.com]

E-mail sent, thanks!

Many congrats, bb, on finishing your Big Bang. \o/

AHH. IT'S POSTED. IT'S OFF MY CHEST. IT FEELS SO LIBERATING. I literally want to run around naked it is so fucking freeing to post this fic.

YAY GYM and I can't wait to hear what you think. Seriously. I'm so excited and waiting for people to read 51K is TORTURE because i"m so used to instant gratification. But I'm excited.

Thank you, love. Seriously. You've been so supportive.

I'm about to be offline due to my mood but this would give me something good to read while waiting for my net connection. Do you have a doc or pdf file, please? *puppy dog eyes*

[tourdefierce.livejournal.com]

I do! E-mail is loony4lupin@gmail.com Send me an email and I'll send you a doc file.

Oh my god. I was scrolling through comments to see which story would be good to read on a 3 hour bus ride.

I love you.

I was like... inell... O.O... INELL!? like HP INELL? and my brain sort of exploded. I'm a huge fan of your work. I left the HP fandom a long long time ago, but I still remember you. I don't think I could name any other authors except for you and millieweasley. I think I've read all your Hermione/olderweasleybrothers(, Draco, Remus or Sirius) related fic. HOLY MOLY. I see you're in the Star Trek IX fandom now- I haven't come across any of your work where I lurk, but now that I know I will!

Do you write Merlin Fic?

[inell.livejournal.com]

LOL. HP Inell? Guilty as charged! I don't write Merlin fic, but I love tourdefierce's writing, so I had to read this one! It's brilliant, even if I suck and fail at commenting to her that it was a fantastic story. And, yeah, I OTP Kirk/McCoy over in Trek XI. :D

[painfullystoic.livejournal.com]

Ah. I OTP Kirk/Spock... but I can totally understand the Kirk/McCoy ship too, I just can't *read* it.

Can I wish/hope that someday you will write Merlin fic though? I love your work.

[roflolmaomg.livejournal.com]

This is a self described glory-hole romantic comedy. It is an Modern-AU. There is sex, crack-comedy, mild drug use, magic shenanigans, cursing and some pretty epic true love. You've been warned.

I think you couldn't write any more appealing Warning for me <3 I'm off to read this now.

I just wanted to say that I've listened to the podfic of this story, and thought that your writing is incredible...I was so drawn into this little world you created. Somehow, your Merlin and Arthur are much more three-dimensional than in other fic I've read, and you have a talent for setting a scene and making it come to life - particularly Camelot, but also Arthur's apartment seemed so clear. Most of all, though, I liked the way you don't give it all away at once, just unfold the plot a piece at a time...interested to read other things you have written now...I would never have guessed that a story partially about glory holes could be considered romantic, but clearly, I was very wrong.

[tourdefierce.livejournal.com]

You're my first via-podfic comment! I'm so pleased that you enjoyed it, although I will say that I'm not sure I deserve such a wonderful read by thisissirius but I'm in awe of the way she makes my writing sounds a million times better.

Thank you! This is such a lovely compliment. Seriously. I'm glad these characters came to life for you in this AU. it's always so hard to know if I've hit the mark or not, so it's good to know that this fic really translated the characters.

I do have a habit of taking sex and feelings and making them all happen at the same time--in a dysfunctional sort of way.

Anyway, I'm really pleased you enjoyed it so much. Thank you for taking the time to listen to the amazing podfic and leave feedback. Thanks!

So basically I NERDED OUT for how wonderful this was, and I made a fanmix? Fansong? Based on it. I hope that's okay. Just..... this story is really great.
