    Summary

    “And have you,” Merlin starts, his voice drawing Arthur’s gaze back to him, inevitable. Merlin licks his lips, his eyes intent and wary on Arthur’s face. “Have you changed your mind about walking away?”

    Arthur feels like he’s balancing on a precipice, and a part of him wants to move back to safety. The other wants to see what happens if he jumps.

    He feels like he’s getting better at the whole jumping bit.


    Arthur's life is going alright; he finally got his feet back underneath him after his father died a year ago, his friends are great, and he loves his work as a journalist. That is, until he gets assigned to write an article for pride month, together with Merlin of all people. Merlin, who he usually does his best to avoid, at work and within their group of friends both. Merlin who, unlike Arthur, is out and proud as bi. Merlin, who is exactly Arthur's type.

    It's fine, though. Arthur can write an article about the queer history of England, and he can write it with Merlin, too. Nothing has to change.

    Summary

    "All of this silence and patience, pining in anticipation— my hands are shaking from holding back from you…”

    Anne’s an entertainment journalist who gets roped into covering the press junket for the new ‘Pride & Prejudice’ adaptation after her editors find out that she grew up with the film’s hot young star, Gilbert Blythe— the same Gilbert Blythe she harbored unrequited feelings for back in high school, which is probably why going through with this assignment is an absolutely terrible idea. [part of a series, but can definitely be read as a stand alone!]
