Hiatus From MBS
Hey guys. So here's the deal. School is going to be picking up soon and I'm in my final semester, so I just don't have time for daily fic recs right now. I'm not deleting, so the stories will still be here to sift through and enjoy. I'm hoping that during Spring Break and summer I can come back and pick up where things left off.
I'll still be logging on here every few days to do follow backs and answer any messages that might come in. If, for whatever reason, you need something quickly, you can message me on my personal blog casually-obsessive.
Thank you to everyone who is following and I hope to see you soon. --Jenna

Together We Are Stronger
Author: Violette_Royale Location: AO3 Rating: NC-17 Theme: Modern AU Ship: Merlin x Arthur
Summary: Twelve-year old Merlin's life is not easy. Growing up in his abusive step-father Uther's house, as the bastard child that Ygraine bore her lover, he has learned from a young age to be inconspicuous. His only safety is Uther's ward, eighteen-year old Morgana. With her, Merlin shares his dreams of a fantasy world inhabited by dragons, knights and sorcerers.
When Morgana is thrown out of the house after a quarrel with Uther, Merlin has to transfer his allegiance to seventeen-year old Arthur, the brother he has never really trusted. Despite their initial animosity, Arthur becomes the source of Merlin's growing infatuation. When disaster strikes again, it is Merlin who has to become the strong one. In the aftermath, Merlin and Arthur grow much closer than what is proper for brothers.
