yeah right... he is totally going to dismiss Merlin's judgement again. I can't believe he threatened Merlin like that "I will have to discipline you." and after all that 'I almost lost my best friend thing'. Sometimes I forget he isn't very nice to Merlin throughout much of the show... Merlin needs hugs T_T

Nicely told.

Dramatic!

Yay, an Arthur who is not an idiot and gets suspicious of Morgana!

I thought you might want to know, at this chapter and the cause of Morgana's vexation, I literally - and I do mean literally - waved both fists in the air and shouted, "GO, GAIUS! THWART THE HELL OUT OF MORGANA!" My cat now thinks I'm crazy.

Just thought you'd like to know. ;-D

I enjoyed your story!

Thanks, please write more Merlin stories! I'll even agree to review each chapter independently, something I almost never do, if you'll write more multi-chartered Merlin stories! So pretty please and I'll even send you hyperspaced chocolate chip cookies with purple, lime green & bubblegum pink sprinkles on top!

Hey ho have a great day!

THIS was awesome! Can't wait to read the sequel! The only thing that confuses me is how Arthur couldn't piece together that Merlin had magic, considering that he knew he had fallen ill. But then again, he might have thought the Merlin had gotten the sickness only because he was the vessel? It was a a really good fic and your descriptions were on point! I bow down to you!

Very good! You had Merlin, Arthur, and Gaius all down perfectly; and yes, Morgana does way too much smirking, lol. You'd think someone would have noticed!
I think my very favorite part of the story was when Merlin woke up and realized that he had accidentally cleaned his room with magic in his sleep, and he saw the 'veritable warren of dustbunnies joyfully marching' out of his window. That was hilarious.
Also, the illness was very clever! I love it when people come up with clever things like that :D

Yes, I like the last 2 lines, that is a fitting ending so I don't get frustrated at seeing Merlin's advice ignored again.

Thank you for this story, I enjoyed it.

I love your little intros, talking to us before you continue the story. They're great!
And the story is too ;)

Brilliant chapter name! Ooh, this is good... You're a very god writer, you know that?

Excellent fic! I really enjoyed your story. I love Morgana, well at least the s1 and s2 version, but you made me really hate her in this one. :) I really enjoy the way you write and I think you nailed Merlin, Morgana and Arthur's characters. They all seemed genuine and the Merthur banter was great.

Bloody hell...sorry but...wow. I found this randomly today and read it all in every spare 5 minutes I had, I couldn't wait to get to the next chapter. Really, this was such a good fic and is definitely going in my favourites to read again. The way you wrote everything was brilliant, the characters written so well, and how you showed Arthur towards Merlin was lovely. Oh and Gauis with Merlin...tears-tears! Really great, I know I'm rubbish at reviews so sorry, but I thought you ought to know my love for this. :)

dun, dun, dun...
exciting!

I think I missed something... Why doesn't Arthur want Morgana to know that Merlin is ill?
Other than this maybe-plothole I love it so far!
