As I was preparing to create participant banners for this years fest, I realized that I was remiss in recognizing the participants from last year.

In order to correct this oversight, I've created a base banner the 2016 fest. You can grab this banner as is, or if you'd like me to add your name, I'm more than happy to do so! Just comment below, and I'll get you a personalized version of the banner asap!

And without any further ado, here is a little token of appreciation for our 2017 [livejournal.com profile] winterknights fest participants!

If I've missed anyone or there are any mistakes or misspellings on your banner, please let me know and I’ll fix it asap!

Title: The Yule Feast
Author/Artist: ???
Pairing(s): principally Merlin/Arthur, with a side of Merlin/knights, Arthur/knights, knights/knights (yes, it's an orgy!)
Prompt: none
Word Count/Art Medium: 17927
Rating: NC-17
Contains (Highlight to view): *There is what is essentially a lust potion used without fully informing Arthur about it, but he knew something was up and was fine with it.*
Disclaimer: Merlin characters are the property of Shine and BBC. No profit is being made, and no copyright infringement is intended.
Notes: I had the idea for a certain image in my head, but since I can't draw, I had to bring it to life in story form. So here is proof that a picture is worth a thousand words… or maybe eighteen thousand. (The image is in Chapter Four; can you guess what it is?)
Everything in the story is consensual. It can be argued that Arthur didn't quite know what his drink would do, but he knew it would do something and he fully embraced it. So if you're very sensitive to consent issues, that might be a thing to keep in mind.
Thank you to my cheerleaders (you know who you are). And an especially big thank you to Kitty for contributing so much to fandom and being so generous to all. You rock, Kitty, and I hope you like this.
Summary: After famine forces Arthur to cancel the Yule Feast, the knights invite their unhappy king to a special celebration of their own. It's too bad that Merlin has the night off. At least Gwaine is at the party, passing out his special spiced wine—and not off snogging Arthur's servant somewhere, thank the gods. The company is pleasant, the wine potent. But the knights are up to something, and Arthur is too hungry and miserable to deal with it. If only he could figure out what they were having for dinner…

Title: wintercearig
Author/Artist: ???
Pairing(s): Merlin/Arthur
Prompt: Rise of the Guardians Fusion. Sort of.
Word Count/Art Medium: 16,155 words.
Rating: NC-17
Contains (Highlight to view): *Deals with major character death (temporary) and resultant grief and survivor's guilt. Includes brief mentions of internalised homophobia. Also depicts sex between a live character and a (technically) dead character (NOT necrophilia, I swear) and involves various supernatural/horror elements. The ending is deliberately left open and may therefore be interpreted as unhappy or bittersweet. I prefer to regard it as hopeful.*
Disclaimer: Merlin characters are the property of Shine and BBC. No profit is being made, and no copyright infringement is intended.
Notes: With many thanks to K for the beta, and to the mods for hosting this wonderful fest. This fic was originally started for Merlin Horror 2016, but it kind of got away from me a bit, so I'm glad to finally have the chance to finish it!
Summary Rise of the Guardians fusion/AU. Arthur always wears at least three layers in the winter, and he sleeps with an electric blanket and the heating on from late autumn until the middle of spring. Of those who know him, Morgana is the only one who notices, but she knows better than to say anything. If asked, Arthur will only claim it’s because he feels the cold more than most people. It's not even really a lie.
