Gerry's Reel (AKA Gwaine's Theme)

Summary:

Who he is.

 

Gerry's Reel - The Corrs

Notes:

Hi everyone,

I've struggled with this one to be honest. The music by the Corrs is awesome and I always think of Gwaine when I hear it. I reckon it totally sums up his character, jovial and very lively. However, this background cannon I've written is taken from my Perwaine story The Knights Destiny, which explains in a little bit more detail his early life. Chapter 5 specifically. Check it out if you can, but do listen to the tune. It's so him.

I might have to write a one-shot to put more detail into this!

Work Text:

When he could walk, everything was a game.

When he ran, his mother couldn’t keep up with him.

The older he got, the more he looked like his deceased father. His mother and sister couldn’t stand to be around him. They had no time or love for him.

He rebelled.

First “drink” at eight.

First kiss at nine.

Betrothed at ten.

He got into fights, saved from incarceration by a compassionate Knight.

Lost his virginity to his fiancée at fifteen.

The wedding broke off when Gwaine’s sister found him with his bride’s brother.

Gwaine left for Camelot that same day.
