Every scar I bear is a wound spared someone else.

Oh man, I hadn't known how much I needed this chapter. Thank you so much.

Well done! Really like the ending.

Really like this scene of Arthur and Merlin working together companionably.

this is amazing!

your writi g is good but the story would have been even more enjoyable with a bit more fleshing out if conversations here and there. I definitely enjoy reading it though!

This was a really good fix. There’s a lot of attention to detail and just the word count is amazing. Quantity and quality. It’s like 4 AM and you wrote this I think it said in 2013 but thus was really good and thanks for writing it and uh yeah.

Woah

Pffft with the amount of fudging history Merlin writers did it's a miracle we still recognize the time; must be the cliches and names.

Poor Merlin, suffering...
Give me more. Muahahaha!

Yay! (Well not yay, or at least a very sad yay) I had been wondering about the other knights— mainly Gwaine— and why they weren’t all over their friend. Thank you, this has to be one of the best fics I’ve read! I also adore your comments— I don’t generally read those. Keep it up! I’m reaching the 2AM mark and still not able to stop

(The lovable OC of course referring to the other servant, not the evil noble.)

Please ignore the bit about 'droning on' in my last review, I was tired by the time I did the review as I'd been reading the fic for a while, looking back on those parts I now see their real meaning, and feel bad for ever down-grading for my own laziness. I keep my (in the nicest way possible) criticism on perhaps an extra warning, in the hopes of helping out, but take back what I said about boring parts. The bond between Arthur and Merlin, the lovable OC, and the way everything's summed up in the end is amazing. Again, I take back the criticism on conversations, but keep the warning I feel obliged to give, changing my 8 to a 9. (Only as 'Bound Together' is already a 10, along with 'A Boy's Destiny', which are my favorite fanfictions of all.)

WARNING (also a spoiler): Does have implications of rape, but it's stopped before anything too bad. Could've done with more of a heads up, but I guess as nothing really did happen it was fine. Some chapters got a bit boring as they droned on, but the conversations between Merlin and Arthur, and how Merlin dealt with it through playing a prank on Gwaine etc, made it worth reading. Over all I'd say 8/10, again could do with perhaps a higher rating, but the characters are spot-on and the emotions are perfection!

I honestly don't think the ending could have been more perfect. Really. This entire fix is amazing, btw. Love

MERLIN
THAT IS METAL AS /FUCK/
HEZUES CHRISTO
HOLY CRAP I LOVE THIS FIC
