Chicago Fire fic: the cooling influences of the world

Title: the cooling influences of the world
Fandom: Chicago Fire
Characters: Matthew Casey/Kelly Severide, Leslie Shay
Rating: R
Word count: 3,504 words
Warnings/Spoilers: Takes place in the vague near-future, sometime after episode 5.
Summary: Severide’s always jumped in headfirst. Don’t think, just do, that’s his motto. He’s gotten smarter, over the years, learned to think first. Some of the time. But it’s still there, bubbling under the surface, that desire to just do it, fuck the consequences.

This is exactly how I’d imagined Arthur in this scene - all haughty disdain for other, inferior princesses! I love it!!! barbitone: Illustration of a scene from A TREE AND A BEE AND A FLEA, FIDDLE-DEE-DEE by oxoniensis. Check it out, but be warned - it’s rated R for some sexytimes between Arthur/Merlin Basically in this section Merlin turns Arthur into a girl for some undercover spy work, and they name him Princess Marie. “It’s no wonder. Have you seen the noblewomen here? Half of them are missing teeth, two of them look like they’ve got a permanent case of the pox, and the rest aren’t anything special. I’m the best looking woman they’ve seen in ages,” Arthur says when he gets a moment alone with Merlin. Merlin’s storing that little gem up for a future date. He wishes he had some way of capturing the sound, so he could replay it over and over. That would be magnificent magic. In the meantime, “You’d better watch out for your virtue,” he says. “Such as it is.” Arthur huffs, hand on his hip. “I’ll have you know that the Princess Marie is a maiden.”  It’s scary, really, how quickly Arthur’s gone from flat out refusing to be a woman, to being the least feminine woman Merlin’s seen, to being—Morgana. Merlin bites down a laugh when he realises that Arthur’s portrayal of Princess Marie is basically a blonde Morgana. A Morgana playing at being helpless.
