merlin_holidaysTitle: Miracle on Ice; Or, Christ, Not Another Twelfth Night Adaptation. If you will.

Author: anonymous
Rating: NC-17
Pairings: Merlin/Arthur; Elena/Gwaine; side Gwen/Lance and implied Gaius/Alice.
Word Count: ~17'000
Content/Warnings: Cross-dressing. Age difference. Reference to the metaphorical closet. Binders full of women. Poetry quoted and paraphrased. References to orchestral music. The demon drink. Chivalrous rescue from threatening situations. Tongues up rumps. Old man hands.
Summary: Merlin must dress up as a girl to cover the biggest underdog story of the 2014 Olympics. Love happens. I swear on the souls of my ancestors that I wrote this before the Dolma episode. I’m pretty sure this makes me psychic.
Author's Notes: Fleete, I begged to write this for you and I want you to know that writing this has brought me much joy at a time when I wondered if I'd ever bother to write anything again at all. Of course, it’s also proved to me that I’m a hopeless one trick pony. What was my point? Oh! I hope you like it, and that you can suspend disbelief, which (let's face it) is a necessity for watching any production of Twelfth Night, right? Because there is no way this shit is ever going to happen in real life. Though, the Olsen twins insist they’re fraternal, did you know? I cannot even fathom that. I chose India because it was a nation which could plausibly use English as a common language in a casual setting, while being completely unexpected in the context. Yes, I've made several characters Indian. India rocks! Suspend your disbelief and when you feel doubt close your eyes and think of Ben Kingsley. Which is good advice in general, I think. Also, thanks to my amazing, beautiful, clever beta,shes_gone. She actually owns all the Mighty Ducks movies. That kind of serendipity doesn’t just happen. That’s fate.
Disclaimer: No Canadians were harmed in the making of this fic. The characters depicted herein belong to Shine and BBC. I make no profit from this endeavor.
