    Bookmarker's Notes

    I'm not even close to done with this yet, but its just amazing. It's nuanced and there's a fantastic slow burn on the whole thing, and it just feels like Harry Potter, grown up and without monsters-of-the-year to contend with.

    Summary

    A Modern day Merlin AU set at the University of St Andrews, featuring teetotal kickboxers, secret wizards, magnificent bodyguards of various genders, irate fairies, imprisoned dragons, crumbling gothic architecture, arrogant princes, adorable engineering students, stolen gold, magical doorways, attempted assassination, drunken students, shaving foam fights, embarrassing mornings after, The Hammer Dance, duty, responsibility, friendship and true love...

    This story was inspired by the thought of Prince William of Wales (and indeed the current Max von Hapsburg) studying at the University of St Andrews; it is also, as the title suggests, at least a little inspired by the operetta 'The Student Prince'.

    Grateful thanks to Lamardeuse and DarkEmeralds for Beta and cheerleading!

    ::2019 note: This story was written BEFORE the TV show introduced the character of Gwaine. It's not that I can't spell, or that I'm perversely writing him out of character - I incorporated other characters from Arthurian legend (Kay, Gawain etc) into my story, and lacking prophetic abilities, my versions naturally don't mesh with the versions subsequently introduced into the show.::

    Summary

    Alternative timeline following the events of Supernatural Season 6 finale. Sam and Dean take it on themselves to deal with The New God. The results are sketchy at best - they really should know better by now than to play with fire. Whether or not it turns out for the best hinges entirely upon Free Will and - as is the general wont of the Known Universe - Captain Jack Harkness.
