Round-Up #4

It's almost the New Year, and wanted to say a big thank-you to all those who participated in the fest so far!

We still have a few more treats in store for you, so there will still be another round up post for 2019! In the meantime, here's your chance to get caught up on some of the wonderful creations you might have missed in all the holiday limbo this week. Don't forget to leave our writers and artists some love (by which I mean comments) for all their hard work! Reveals will go up once the last entry has been posted.

Thank you for helping make Winter Knights the wonderful fest that it is!

ART:


♥ Baby it's cold outside [Merlin/Arthur - G]
It's cold outside and Merlin is happy to show Arthur what an asset Aithusa is in helping to keep them warm but Arthur was rather hoping to have had an excuse to employ the more traditional method of sharing body heat. Luckily for Arthur, Aithusa is an intelligent and astute dragon and intends to fly off and give them some privacy.

♥ All I Want For Christmas [Merlin/Arthur - PG-13]
After months of pining, Merlin seizes the moment (and his destiny) when he finds Arthur under the mistletoe at the office Christmas party.

♥ Divine Intervention [Merlin/Arthur - G]
Exactly what the title says...



♥ The Christmas Jumper Contest [Gen - G]
Merlin might be on the cheating side. A bit. Maybe.

♥ Aurora's harbinger [Merlin/Arthur - G]
For night's swift dragons cut the clouds full fast,
And yonder shines Aurora's harbinger;
At whose approach ghosts, wandering here and there,
Troop home to churchyards.

W. Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream


FIC:

♥ First Snow [Merlin/Arthur – 1400w – PG-13]
Snow on Christmas Eve is perfect timing. Aithusa has never seen snow so Arthur and Merlin take her outside to play – and the snow works its Christmas magic on them, too.

♥ When the Time Is Right (The Darkness Will Leave Us) [Elyan/Percival – 1569w – PG-13]
Give him time, they'd said. Given all that Elyan's been through, Percival thinks he understands. But as the months go by and the distance grows, he starts to wonder. Then, during the Midwinter festivities, he notes Elyan slipping out early and has an epiphany: Maybe it's less about waiting for enough time to pass and more about choosing the right time.

♥ Tis The Season For Mixology [Merlin/Arthur - 4478w - PG]
The office Christmas party is not going quite as Merlin planned. Gwen has turned up with a new (hot!) fiancé and Lance is determined to drown his sorrows. Meanwhile, Gwaine has made it his mission to kill everyone with bad cocktails.
