{banner made by brightporclain}

BEGINS: 12th Dec 2011
END: 31st of Dec 2011


Welcome to the 2011 Arthur & Gwen Christmas Fest Page, the place to celebrate the two best things around: Christmas and A/G!

Firstly before I tell you the rules, I will explain the reasons I decided to run this fest. The first one is obvious! To celebrate Christmas and what better way than by creating some A/G fluffy, smutty and happy fanart and fics. Secondly, because I know that some people have not been enjoying series 4 as much. So what better way to cheer ourselves up then by creating some lovely, happy A/G arts and fics!


Guidelines: (please read carefully)

♥ Everyone is welcome to participate!

♥ Arthur and Gwen must be the main pairing, however other characters/ pairings are welcomed!

♥ Post your prompts below (one prompt per comment). All prompts must be centred around the Christmas theme. However, they can be set in canon, modern times or AU. Anything as long as it Christmassy!

♥ You can post as many prompts as you want. People are also allowed to specify if they want something in particular (i.e: a fic or some icons).

For example: A/G - fic - Arthur and Gwen get snowed in!

♥ People can respond to the prompts in any way they want. Fics, icons, banners, videos are encouraged and more than welcomed!

♥ Post responses to the thread containing the prompt you used (if it’s easier people can post links to where their art/fics are located in their comment).

♥ When posting responses to prompts make sure you include the title, rating, pairing/s and genre in the subject heading.

The Gang's All Here

Arthur hated boarding school. His teachers despised him as much if not more than the other boys and the Headmaster took a shine to him right away, keeping a watchful eye on him – likely at the behest of his father.

The dormitories were like a desert, oppressively hot during the day, blistering cold at night. He slept with two pairs of socks. And if that weren’t enough, he’d been banned from playing sports by the elder Pendragon for the “incident” last term in Chemistry. That room was still sealed off.

But if there was anything he hated more than school, without a doubt it was being home for the holidays. Goosepimples prickled up his arms and neck as the car pulled up to the family’s country home. Home would be a rather modest descriptor for the centuries old castle.

This place was comfortable enough, but he always felt like every generation that came before eyed him in judgment from their perch in gold frames lining the corridor walls. And what was worse was his half-sister, Morgana and her idiot boyfriend Merlin.

“Pouting again, brother,” she greeted him with a beautifully evil smirk.

“Shut up. I haven’t even got out of the car and you’ve already ruined the day.”

“And how did I do that?”

“I don’t know, it must have been your–”

“Morgana,” someone shouted from behind. Arthur rolled his eyes at the sight of the tall, slender boy.

“Arthur,” Merlin said. “It’s good to see you again.”

“Why is there food in your hair?” he asked stepping by Merlin’s outstretched arm. It wasn’t that he didn’t like Merlin. He was nice enough and last summer they even managed to get along while his sister was off doing whatever it was that she had been off doing.

Arthur scowled as he caught sight of the white morsels of popcorn scattered on the floor like unmelted snowflakes. “It’s all over,” he remarked, annoyed, following the trail back to a pair of bare feet.

A better glance and he saw that they weren’t bare. They were covered in red and white striped stockings that resembled candy canes. They stuck out from under a green dress that shimmered at the hem, around the middle in a tiny hoop and up around the edges where two curly ponytails fell to the collarbone of what he decided might be the most adorable of Santa’s little helpers he had ever seen.

“Oh! Hi! You must be Arthur. I’m Guinevere, but everyone calls me Gwen.”

He shook her hand and remembered that his mouth shouldn’t just hang open like that if he wasn’t going to speak. He snapped his jaw shut and licked his lips and when he said nothing, she smiled brighter, almost giggled.

“Come on, Gwen. We need to dress me now.”

His sister and the cute little elf scurried up the curved, stone steps of the mansion and disappeared down one of the halls.

“Who was that?” he asked Merlin at last still flustered.

“That was Gwen.”

Arthur turned his head, eyes wide as saucers and stared at him. Merlin chuckled in response, half hiding it with his hand.

He cleared his throat and glowered. “What are you doing with her?”

“Don’t worry. It’s for charity and it was their idea.” They started up the stairs together. Arthur wasn’t sure what to think or what to say (again). In truth, all he could think about was Gwen dressed up as an elf and how the holidays didn’t seem so bad this year. From beside he heard Merlin say, “You should see what we’re wearing.”

He gave him a slightly threatening look.

“I’m Rudolf and your Santa. Come on then, the children will be here any minute now and Santa can’t be late.”

Merlin took off up the stairs and down the same hallway the girls had gone. For the briefest of moments Arthur’s face twisted in anger one more time and then...he considered that there that was fairly good chance he might get Gwen to sit on his lap tonight and that made him smile.

This is cute and I'm sure someone will something appropriately smutty for the prompt.;) I'm really curious though about what Arthur might have done to be banned from sports.

Thinking the exact same thing.

Oh gosh I loved this! Pouting Arthur Pendragon having to go away to boarding school, perfect. And then coming home, having his bad mood thawed by the lovely elf Gwen, perfect. I loved your descriptions, loved it all. Keep posting holiday fics!
