Merlin is a scholarship student from Cardiff studying Physics and (a bit more covertly) Magic. Arthur is the only son of the nation's ruling monarch, Uther Pendragon, whose mother died in childbirth. Andrews University, the Kingdom of Fife, Scotland, where all the major players are first-year students at university.
So what can I say about "The Student Prince"? Broadly speaking, it's an AU ("alternate universe") fic set in modern-day England, largely at St. And if the fanfic and fan art are anything to go by? This state of affairs totally meets with fan approval. The whole show played like a massive in-joke between the actors playing Merlin and Arthur, who were clearly egging one another on to make every single interaction between the two characters be so brimming full of subtext that the subtext just gave up the damn ghost and became text.Įvery person I've informally surveyed about this show agrees with the above assessment. This was a show that frickin' wore the slash right there on its sleeve.
Length: 35 chapters (navigable through drop-down menu)Īvailable At: Archive of Our Own and Audiofic (swoon!!)So I don't know how many of you have seen any episodes of the new BBC series Merlin but Hanna and I caught about half the first season two summers ago, back when we were still getting the channel that broadcast the show here in the U.S. What can I say? My friend Minerva encouraged me to check this one out and it was so totally and completely charming that I simply have to share it with you. last time I did one of these I promised more femslash! And now here I am bringing you more yaoi.
