Merlin Thinky Thoughts and a Poll

[themostepotente]

So, I feel as though I've let the Merlin people on my flist down a bit. I don't post a lot about Merlin, but after the holidays, I aim to make this journal WAY more Merlin friendly. I say this because I REFUSE to be so late with my hd_holidays fic like I was last year. And I am a glaciarly slow writer :-(

I have been talking with a dear friend about a Merlin collab for next year, and the Gods be damned, I *will* finish this M/A ponyplay fic. If I felt more comfortable, I'd give B/C a go, but that will come in time, I imagine. Inspired by ella_bane's fun poll today, I bring you one of my own out of selfish curiosity. Have fun :-)

marguerite_26 -- Arthur should always top Merlin., They should all play nicely and switch!

I like Arthur topping but it depends on the fic. I love when there are reasons give for why Arthur bottoms/Merlin tops and I can believe it readily. But when no explanation is given and Arthur is portrayed as a princely and Merlin very much the servant, I find Merlin topping hard to read.

Agreed. Explanation is necessary for me given their stations in life. Merlin topping Arthur is not going to work for me in a PWP setting.
