UNPOPULAR OPINION!

Something discomfits me about Pairing: Pendragon/Merlin, but I can't put my finger on it, I really can't. It's cute and all, but...I thought it'd be more cutting and it's not.

(Maybe that all the female characters in it are sorta insipid? I do know it's not that I can't stand what I see in the mirror, okay, so don't say it's that.)

Am I completely alone in this?

The joke about Morgana randomly popping up in fic as an obstacle to the hero with no motivation or resolution was funny, and the first part was entertaining enough to keep me reading the last two parts even though nothing happened.

So overall the fic was a win for me.

But the perving on gay men sparkly unicorns was gross and tiresome and everyone was extremely out of character. I don't know why this was written as a modern AU rather than as RPF.
