let's have tea in the MASTURBATORY!

Guys, since April sucks baws (and so will May but enough about me) I've only just gotten around to reading like...my second Big Bang, but it was so utterly utterly lovely that I have to rec it here, I mean youse probably have already read and forgotten it but man I read it last night and enjoyed it IMMENSELY.

Cursed at First, But Mended by lakeeffectgirl
Marcus/Esca - R (I think) -Sir Marcus Aquila, recently invalided home from the war, has only weeks to arrange a marriage of convenience so that he can inherit his family's estate. A Regency Romance AU.
Deliciously Austenish and with spot-on lovely characterization which isn't all that common in AUs (AND IT HAS HORSIES GUYS, HORSIES!!!)


My delightful profiteroles, I am aware some of youse (like myself) are Merlin fans.
And maybe some of you are podfic fans as well. Anyhoo, if yer both I cannot praise lunchee enough. I mean, I am biased because I have a MASSIVE BONER for anything coming from the Antipodes but uhm her podfics are POSITIVELY ORGASMIC.
If you like the spoken word and Merlin, I'd recommend her to no end.
She also did a podfic of Drastically Redefining Protocol *cough* which is like...the best thing ever. ----> her reading of Intended can be found here.

CIAO!
