At first it was the review glitch, now I am not getting notifications for ANY story. My gmail is sad.

I practically chose this pairing out of a hat...not that it was hard considering the fact that I set this post Season 5, and there were only three eligible candidates (unless if you count Merlin, who is still in love with a dead girl). I was really close to having Leon/Gwen like what most people do after Arthur's death, but, in the end, I couldn't bring myself to do it. Besides, the pairing needed to be unexpected, according to the prompt.

Disclaimer: My heart knows in a moment that I will never own Merlin again...not that I can't dream.

Prompt: From Skypeoplephoenix732: "It only takes a moment" from Hello Dolly, but not the pairing you'd expect. Not sure who I want paired up, but a thing that could be super ridiculous.

Rating: K+

Genre: Romance/Hurt/Comfort

Characters: Percival, Guinevere, mentions of other characters

Time Frame: Post Season 5

Summary: It only takes a moment for their love lives to be changed forever.

Let's Go On An Adventure

It only takes a moment for their eyes to meet.

Percival looked away, feeling the rush of red crawl up his face. It would be wrong of him to take advantage of Guinevere's loneliness and grief.

...

Her heart knows in a moment that she will never be alone again.

Gwen felt the longing in her broken heart. Lancelot, Elyan, Gwaine, Morgana, and Arthur were all dead. Merlin was just gone.

She was alone.

...

Percival held her for an instant as she cried, but his arms felt sure and strong.

"Stay with me," she pleaded.

It only takes a moment.

Okay, that's that. A quick search through the Merlin FanFiction Archive revealed that Gwen/Percival has never been done before...at least not as a main pairing. Betcha none of you expected this.

*dodges tomatoes for referencing everyone's deaths*

CriesofCapricorn: It is also one of my favorite episodes...just about anything with The Trickster is a favorite of mine. (I also am rather fond of "Stuck in the Middle (With You)" and a couple of others.) However, Gabe isn't the one who started this mess...I think...Unless if I choose to make it so. Thank you!
