Title: Of Nutcrackers, Dragons, and Kings
Author/Artist: ANON
Pairing(s):Arthur/Merlin, Gwen/Lancelot
Prompt: Hmm…. Now that I am writing this up, I see I accidentally used prompts from 2015. Oops! Hope that's okay. The main prompt was #52: “Arthur/Merlin - Arthur and Merlin go watch the Nutcracker. One of them falls asleep during the performance and plunges into its world.” Inspiration was also loosely taken from prompts #32: “Merlin/Arthur - Parent AU where they spend the holidays with their daughter Aithusa” and #38: “Morgana as the Ice Queen.”
Word Count/Art Medium: ~11k
Rating: PG
Contains (Highlight to view): *Show-typical violence and character deaths within a dream sequence*

Notes: Thanks to the mods for a lovely fest. This was a last-minute pinch hit, and I adored writing it. Sorry for using last year's prompts by mistake. Happy Holidays!
Summary: Seven-year old Aithusa is finally big enough to dance in the Nutcracker. Too bad her Daddy falls asleep as soon as the show begins. . . . It’s Merlin, Nutcracker-style. Or The Nutcracker, Merlin-style. Aithusa really doesn't care which, just as long as Daddy wakes up in time to see her moment in the spotlight.
