Summary: It’s a perfectly wretched day in Camelot when Uther Pendragon announces Arthur’s betrothal.

Review:
This is one of Pru's earliest Merlin fics, and it remains one of my favorites. I liked Arthur and Merlin's chemistry within, and I'm a big fan of the genre of 'arranged marriages to help the monarchy'. This isn't as polished as some of Pru's other works (like "Drastically Redefining Protocol"), but I still love it. It has the snappy banter that I've come to expect from the author, and is funny and sweet in all the right places. I liked the OMC, Prince Bernard, solely for the fact that he is fun to watch fail, and the plot he comes up with ridiculous and hilarious by turns. If you like lolarious gay arranged royal marriages, mistaken identities, lots of banter and unapologetic fluff, then you ought to take a gander to the link below.
