Laws of Attraction [Merlin, Merthur, Oneshot, Nc-17]

Laws of Attraction by ChristyCorr 

Merlin Emrys had strong convictions on the subjects of love and marriage—namely, that they should be avoided at all costs.

To be honest, I really, really wanted to title this as "Idiots in Love". I really, really did. I still want. Because its so fucking true.

This is all about Merlin and Arthur being nemesis. And then getting drunk together and shit starts to happen. What I liked about the nemesis part was how it actually was logical, they were tied with the cases they won (I always hate those lawyer stories wher one lawyer always wins and is perfect etc etc.) and sometimes they lost. They didn't take it like it was the end of the world, they just take it as next time I will do better -way. Which is awesome.

Also I liked how magic was there in the sidelines. Somehow made this more Merlin fic and more perfect. Okay. I am kind of disappointed that there wans't more of magic but we can't always have what we want so I can manage with this.

But yea. The cliche part here is that everything could have been solved if they would just talk. Like seriously. So it is full of unnesessary drama. But thats nothing new and this whole thing wouldn't work if they were actually functional human beings who talked. 

Yeaaaa. Go and read it. Thanks.

Yvain [Merlin, Merthur, Nc-17]

Yvain by Lady Angel (dameange) 

During the celebrations for his grandson’s sixth birthday, Uther Pendragon was stabbed by his grandson for murdering his papa. 

This is going to sound so bad, but at some point of the fic I really wanted to Merlin to stay dead. I really did. I wanted to read how Arthur slowly started to get over Merlin's death and how Yvain would become the best version of Arthur because  his father is dead. To be honest, if there is a fic out there where Merlin dies and it's literally all about Arthur trying to survie, please comment the url and I will read it.

Anyways. I liked to read the story in Uther's point of view. Nt often anything is written in Uther in mind. Mostly he is just this big villain in the background and somehow he just exist and thats it. So. All those Uther parts were pretty refreshing (even when I don't really like Uther that much, but who cares).

I just didn't understand how Uther could be so blind to things happening around him. He didn't know that Yvain called Merlin dad or what Merlin really was to Arthur. I can kind of understand how he has blind spots for things that he does not want to know but it still sounds/feels weird that Yvain wouldn't call Merlin papa at any point when Uther could hear him. Like Yvain is Uther's grandchild and the story makes it sound like they do spent some time together and hang out. But maybe it has to do something with Uther being distant father and so he is also a distant grandfather. Maybe. Or something like that. 

And okay. The story would not work if Uther actually was aware of everything and especially awere of how much Merlin means to everyone. This whole thing just couldn't work.

The other thing was how Merlin didn't just magically survive. His resurection was this whole bigger picture and him being part of something bigger. It made sense for the whole cosmic plan for Arthur to become the greatest king Albion has ever had (or some other bullshit like that).

So basically there wasn't that many things that I didn't like. Which is weird. At least I can't think of anything right now. Weird. Super weird.

Please Stand By the Shore [Merlin, Merthur, Oneshot, Nc-17]

Please Stand By the Shore by ingberry 

When Uther makes Arthur captain of his ship in his absence, he leaves him with a single warning: don't give Merlin anything he asks for, no matter what it is. 

Pirate fics are always the best. Even when there is not that much piracy itself.. This is more about Arthur finding himself and searching for answers. But the point stays. Pirates make everything better. Everything.

The other thing that makes this better, is folklore. All those spirits and mermaids etc. Okay. There are not mermaids or mermen. But the folklore and spirits and stuff like that are there somewhere. So, that just makes the fic even better.

But the thing is. I have started to love Gwaine. I just like him. He is always on Merlin's side and is always the best friend Merlin could hope for. And he is always taking Merlin's side over Arthur's. Which I love. I just love it. Even in here Gwaine is just such a lovely fellow. I can't wait to get further in the show where Gwaine comes to the picture. But to be honest, that will take at least another six months. So it will take awhile.

But. Back to the point! This is all about Arthur finding himself and his purpose. And maybe him giving Merlin his life back. And in the end, they are just happy in their own lives that they have build for themselves. Yep. 

And. Don't forget. There are pirates in there. Seriosly. Never forget.

Wholehearted [One Direction, Larry, Oneshot, Nc-17]

Wholehearted by sweetums 

 Louis meets Harry through a threesome his boyfriend sets up. 

 I had an idea about this. I did. But I may have lost it. So.. Improvising.

So this fic is not something along the lines that they fuck, Louis realises that Harry is awesome and they get together. No. This is more like they fuck, Louis realises his life sucks, he meet Harry again, they became friends, Louis breaks up with his boyfriend and happily ever after Larry is done. Yea.

Did I spoil the plot? Probably. But to be honest, the summary did that for me already so there wasn't that much to spoil. Probably. 

Anyways. This is way too long to be a oneshot but almost all One Direction oneshots are like that, so that is not new. Also. This is pretty good and worth of your time. So go and get lost in this magical world of Larry becoming a thing. Yeaaaa. All you need is Larry.
