Hello everyone, it's been a while. Recently I've returned to the Merlin fandom because I saw some gifset of them and The Feels, as we used to say back in the day (do we still say that now?), came back in a sudden and mad rush. I've been revisiting some old merthur fics (and also trying to find some new ones too) when I realised that I ought to have a fresh copy of dear old Loaded March extracted straight from AO3 itself and save them all, because you never know these days. And then while I was doing that, I realised that I couldn't find my compilation in my fic library! The very thing that I had spent much a time putting together, I do not know where it is?? And so I had to make my way back here to find the links where I had uploaded the compilations hahaha

Anyhow. I'm glad my uploads are still intact and that mediafire is still a functional site (you really never know these days). I hope I might be able to find the original and alarmingly big word document again some day... It's probably in some drive I hope...

I'm not sure if anyone still checks these tags or still follows this blog. If you see this then I think it's lovely that this has reached you again after so many years and I hope you are doing well!

P.S. As of today, the PDF has 1125 downloads while the EPUB has close to 800. Apparently in March 2018 they were at 332 and 225 respectively. It blows my mind that so many people checked them out. Thank you for the lovely support and I hope the compilations have been of service to you! ETA: Since I haven't been here a long while, I also decided to go and look at tags on the reblogs of the compilation post that I've missed... You are all so very lovely, thank you for the kind words :')

P.P.S. In case you are still wondering what I'm talking about: I had in the past made a compilation of all 16 parts (and I am now remembering, also one of the extras!) of Loaded March into a single document, available in both PDF and EPUB formats, which are both available for download :] It's the pinned post in my tumblr, or you can access it here.

#lm hive mind #loaded march #bbc merlin #also i suddenly remembered i was intensely shipping kay and will in it #but i think it was all very open to interpretation in the end wasn't it?? shakes fist at footloose #i think i need to reread loaded march again; it has been so many years #that word count though.... #also does anyone know what Footloose has been up to these days (years) i suppose they are busy working on original stories? #i've also just learnt of the LM discord ooohhh

The plan is to finish my Loaded March re-read by the 24th before my DOTD rewatch.

I'm on chapter 4 of Do or Die and my Uni classes end tomorrow... Will I make it? Who knows!

Send help. I'm so deep into my feels over Loaded March, I just can't. Perfection doesn't even begin to describe it. Why did no one prepare me for the absolute heat crushing love I'm currently experiencing for Will, Kay and Bran?

But seriously. Will and Kay's QPR is life- affirming. Because I won't accept it's anything less. Like, they've experienced so much weird shit and pain and have spent so many years pushing those things down, and then they meet someone who understands. Just understands them and how they process things. And everything feels just a little bit better.

And it's so confusing because it happened in, like, 10 seconds flat. One minute, they're frenemies that are *literally* just trying to stay alive and the next, they're co-parents to a vulnerable teenage kid.

And Bran. Don't even get me started on Bran. That sweet baby and his two daddies have just wormed their way into my heart. They all have.

Why am I allowed to read fanfiction? Why am I allowed to drink wine? Boy, I'm in deep.

[beeeeeeeeeeeeeeens]

If someone can write all the Will/Kay fics with Bran being their son within Footloose’s universe I would be much appreciated because I need the dynamic and the sass and everything

Corporate eLearning Market Regional Outlook, Competitive Analysis, Application and Forecasts To 2028

The global corporate eLearning market size may exceed USD 450 billion by 2028. Ever since technology has taken over almost all aspects of human existence, enterprises across the globe are slowly diverting toward tech-enabled eLearning for corporate training from their traditional classroom-based approach.

Corporate eLearning programs offer distinct advantages like better employee retention, increased productivity, and improved workplace morale over old-school approaches that helps industries to keep up with the continuous stream of latest technologies and evolving customer expectations. These programs have gained considerable popularity over the years due to their ease of accessibility over different devices and gadgets and the growing integration across several industry verticals, including BFSI, healthcare, manufacturing, and government.

A rapid upsurge in remote learning and corporate training trends accompanied by the significant rise in cloud adoption during the pandemic has fostered the development of the corporate eLearning industry landscape.

Brand collaborations to aid the industry growth

The increased transition to hybrid or remote workplaces and the growing adoption of online learning services across educational institutes have pushed the demand for new digital skills throughout the corporate and educational community.

In May 2022, Corporate Learning joined hands with Moodle to become its certified partner and help the latter expand its operations across Guatemala. The collaboration is aimed at providing solutions that deliver institutions with significant economies and efficiencies of scale and allow training units to focus on digital transformation and knowledge management rather than be consumed by managerial tasks.

The escalation of more such alliances among players will help propel the corporate eLearning industry outlook.

Acquisitions remain the key growth strategy

In May 2022, eLearning Brothers announced the acquisition of CoreAxis, an on-demand learning resource provider. The move will create tremendous growth opportunities for CoreAxis customers and competent associates and help them become a part of the most exhilarating growth story in the industry.

Besides, the addition of a robust learning platform and global resources will position their combination for long-term growth and immediate success. The rising efforts and rapid adoption of more such growth tactics by industry participants across the globe will augment the corporate eLearning market forecast in the times to come.

Increased adoption of LMS technology

Learning management systems (LMS) have gained decent traction in recent years. This can be credited to their growing utilization across businesses of all sizes, local governments, national government agencies, online/eLearning-based institutions, and traditional educational institutions in order to improve conventional educational methods while effectively upskilling their existing workforce. The LMS technology is increasingly integrated across various organizations for accomplishing employee onboarding and comprehensive enterprise training objectives. 

In April 2022, India's foremost LMS provider, Stratbeans Learning Solutions, launched Bytecasting, the first of its kind curated content engineering LMS. 

Targeted toward instructional designers, learning and development teams, and LMS admins, the solution promotes the sharing, development, and optimization of different bandwidths and mobile learning while editing and organizing legacy content abilities to customize author eLearning content. 

Prominent players operating in the corporate e-learning market include Cornerstone, Crossknowledge, Cegid, Cegos, Hive Learning, Kallidus Ltd., Kineo, Learning Pool, Infopro, Intuition, Media Zoo, Mind Tools, Netex.

Every year there seems to be that one "season" where a couple of Loaded March hiveminds reread LM and suddenly our dashboards are filled with Loaded March again.

Loaded March book club

There’s a new Discord server dedicated to “Loaded March” fanfiction series by Footloose.

You can join for a first time reading (each part has its own channel to avoid spoiling anything), for a re-read, or just for general gushing about the series’s perfection. 

Link to the Discord server is here.

I was halfway through writing you a slightly angsty (but with plenty of space for comfort/fluff) headcanon about the Killson family and then I realised that half of it wasn't actually canon but was based on my post-canon hc 😂

(but also character study or h/c just Will realising that there are some things (the bad - spending time growing up living on the streets - and the good - magic) that he will never share with Bran or Kay and they know each other better than Will can ever know them because of it)

i meeeaaaan, hit me up with it anyway, i’m very down for post-canon Killson hcs.

and YES, i love the bittersweet angst of that. i can’t decide if Kay would be more or less likely to catch on to Will’s feelings of alienation in their little family. because Kay is intimately familiar with that feeling, and with craving personal connections in order to feel properly bonded into a group. would that experience make him more sensitive to Will feeling the same way? or would finally having connections like that with Bran, and with knowing Will primarily as a more confident (and self-sufficient, overall less needy) person blind him a bit to how Will is pulling away from them?

if the latter, how long would it take for someone to notice?

would it be Kay, finally after the third time that Will blew off an invitation to join him and Bran on something because Will doesn’t want to intrude or be a third wheel in their obviously closer relationship? would it be Bran, noticing the way Will gets quiet and weird whenever Bran tries to share magic-related things with him? would it be Merlin, asking Will why the fuck he’s pushing away the best relationships he’s ever had in his life and when his self-sabotaging tendencies made a resurgence? maybe even Arthur, calling Will out in the bluntest possible way because he knows that Will would find a way to rationalize it if he’s any more tactful about it?

someone has to get through to him about it. bang it into his head that Kay and Bran love him, even if he wasn’t a street rat and doesn’t have magic. believe it or not, that isn’t the sum total of any of their experiences.

Without Will, who would help Bran with his maths homework? who would join him in taking the piss out of Kay for liking bodice ripper romance novels? who would watch saturday morning cartoons with him? who would teach him how to count cards in poker and also the best bluffing methods for talking himself out of trouble when he gets caught counting cards in poker?

Without Will, who would keep Kay endlessly entertained by being easily flustered by public flirting? who would spar with him, no holds barred, in a way that somehow also makes him laugh? who else would always remember to get the off brand of biscuits because Kay grew up on those and thinks the expensive brand tastes like bullocks? who else would understand exactly how terrifying it is when Bran looks at him with tears in his eyes, expecting and trusting him to fix things? 

Will doesn’t have to share their pasts as long as he’s willing to share their future, and not having magic doesn’t mean that they love him less for it. Kay and Bran will never be able to share the bizarre contradictory comradery that Will and Gwaine share as snipers, or that Will and Arthur share as statisticians, or that Will and Merlin share as childhood friends. what does any of that matter when Will is theirs, huh?

he’s theirs, and they’re his, and Will had better get with the picture right quick

"[...] or the floor of the room Kay shared with Lucan and Will."

I think we don't talk enough about Lucan sharing a room with them as Kay and Will navigate their accidental baby teenager acquisition.

Like what must that have been like???

While you've been watching bad TV, I've been reading Loaded March. Haven't even watched Merlin, but your description made me think I'd enjoy it anyway. I had no idea how long it was until close to the end. More than that a week of reading all day and half the nights! So good.. Thanks for the recc! I kinda want to start again just to see how the characters developed, but that way lays madness so I made myself do other things instead.

hahaha LM does that to you! Yeah it’s such a well developed universe that you can really just take the characters as originals if you’ve never seen the show. Glad you liked it so much!

for me, the holiday season means drowning myself in merlin fanfiction again. back in 2011-2014 i would binge merlin fic during the holidays (especially when i would visit family out in the country with no reception) and it just fills me with so much joy and nostalgia. my heart explodes with joy

im gonna reread loaded march. it's 1.2 million words and i'm gonna finish it by new years, mark my words 👏 it's wild because i remember our mini LM fandom got so lucky, having the author join our Skype chat and she lurked and we all got to interact and she listened to us talk about our ships and she learned of our fandom faves and then they would have a larger role in the next part and it was just so exciting

loaded march makes me so happy and it brought me such a wonderful group of friends that i still chat with all the time (one of them just had a BABY!!! and a lot of us bought her stuff on her registry!!) and some of whom that I actually had the pleasure of meeting up with.

i'm a slut for loaded march, it's played such a huge role in my fandom experience. ugh im feeling SO NOSTALGIC THIS HOLIDAY SEASON.

for me; holidays = fandom

so forgive me y'all if you start seeing merlin on your dash, i hope it's not too off putting
