    Summary

    In the wake of the destruction wrought by Smaug, Thranduil comes to aid the people of Lake-town to further his own ends. Strategy and necessity bring Thranduil and Bard together, but mutual respect and admiration soon follow. As their friendship deepens, Bard battles a slowly worsening illness, not knowing that he has actually fallen under Smaug's dying curse. When the truth is discovered, Thranduil fights to break the curse and save Bard's life.

    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

    In a rain-soaked Northern England town, two insomniacs find solace in the only light that matters: The one burning in the window across the narrow alleyway.

    Bilbo Baggins, a gentle author and bookseller drowning in self-doubt, and Thorin Oakenshield, a brooding carpenter carrying the weight of a failed legacy, have spent months as silent companions in the dark. A 2 AM cigarette. A shared understanding of heavy silence. The comfort of knowing someone else is awake.

    But when loneliness finally forces the neighbours to cross those twelve feet of cobblestone, they discover that the line between friendship and something more is as fragile as the sleep they've been chasing.
