How did I not know about this

tiny_turtle I remember the commercials when SyFy was running Merlin, but I forgot to watch the first one and then promptly forgot about the show entirely. Also, the whole Arthurian mythos makes me cry (The Once and Future King and Le Morte d'Arthur were formative experiences, okay?) and I only rarely enjoy stomping on my weepy-buttons.
But - and I swear to God I don't remember which fic started it - about two days ago I was bored and read a Merlin fic and now it's something like 23 fics and eight episodes later (it's on Hulu!) and I keep swinging between "shiny new fandom!" and "AAAAAAHHHHH THERE'S A REASON YOU DON'T READ THIS ANYMORE QUIT NOW BEFORE IT ALL ENDS IN TRAGEDY oh crap too late." (Hint: the ominous stuff starts in episode 8. Yes, it's called "The Beginning of the End." No, I apparently have no self-preservation.)
All I can say is, thank God for fic writers, because there are a couple of au's/big bangs/alternate(?) endings I predict I will be fleeing (back) to in the near future.
In short: UTHER PENDRAGON STOP STOMPING ON MY WEEPY BUTTONS. (This can only end in tears, I know it.)
