Summary: Arthur and Merlin communicate via IM. Merlins using a shabby old keyboard and, you know, its just a typical thursday night.
NOTE: for those of you following Dragons Princess, please note that im not deviating from my story. its just that my (brand new) laptop glitched on me, So right now, im forced to use a ratty hello kitty keyboard attachment with my ipad, and every other letter keeps getting stuck. The people at geek squad dont know whats wrong with it, and i so wanted to shake the hell out of the guy when he said to come back on monday.
anyway, the Dragons Princess progress willl resume on monday, but there may be delays in the next update.
Kudos to my new beta for triggering this idea. :) Thanks!
enjoy!
