[merlin-hols.livejournal.com]

Title: Overt Operations
Recipient: silver_falcon24
Author: Anon
Rating: R
Pairings: Merlin/Arthur
Word Count: ~13,200
Content Notes/Warnings: Wanking. Pining. Fluff.
Summary: Arthur met Merlin by chance. Then his life took a weird turn, and he got dragged into a world of stalkers, mass-texting, and Christmas traditions.
Author's Notes: Dear silver_falcon24, I had no idea what to do with your prompt and I was scared beyond all reason to disappoint you. I tried to give you a little bit of everything (although I might have failed in making you really cry). I hope you liked the gossiping friends with their noses in everybody else's business. A million thanks to miss_bekahrose for her help!
