Welcome to the Three Sentence Fic-A-Thon:

[caramelsilver]

This is a challenge where you answer a prompt with a fic consisting of only three sentences. It's open to all fandoms and you can post and answer as many prompts as you like. Only one prompt per comment please.

When posting a prompt please format it this way:

fandom, character/pairing, prompt word/sentence.

Lastly, please pimp this to your flist, I'd like as many as possible to come and participate!

Have fun!

If you have any questions ask them to the first comment.

Edit December 10th: Thanks to the brilliant grim_lupine we now have a delicious account. So head on over there to find some unfilled prompts: three_sentence_ficathon's delicious bookmarks.

A small note from grim_lupine who's organizing the delicious archive: "So I'm not familiar with all the fandoms here; sometimes when people post a ficlet they abbreviate a fandom and sometimes they don't (like BSG versus Battlestar Galactica, but I know that one) so I might have it listed twice in the delicious tags. If someone notices something messed up they can comment below." -- So do that, and when requesting something new, please use the fandom's whole name.

Merlin/Narnia, ensemble, getting drunk

[grim-lupine.livejournal.com]

Arthur may look most like Peter, but he keeps watch like Edmund does; sharp-eyed he keeps Merlin in his line of sight at all times, propping him up when he starts to tip over to the side with a guileless drunken grin; Edmund leans into Arthur's ear and whispers, He's remarkably open for one who has so many secrets; does he know you know? and Arthur's eyes are careful and dangerous when he responds, No, and I intend to keep it that way; you know how to hold a careful tongue, do you not, King Edmund?

Edmund smiles and passes a finger over his sealed lips, leaning back into Peter's shoulder; Peter, who has never been able to hold his drink, mumbles a bleary Ed? and blinks at Edmund confusedly; Edmund says, nothing, Peter, I think you've had enough, and swaps Peter's mug for water.

At the end of the night Merlin is swaying and smiling foolishly, and Peter is little better, but Arthur and Edmund are still sharp; as long as the people they care about most rely on their watchfulness, Edmund and Arthur will remain so.

(Regardless of how the show portrays him, I remain firmly convinced that Arthur knows Merlin's secret and is just waiting around for him to tell him. :D Also, I haven't seen any of season 2 of Merlin, so. :D)
