And I'm glad to see I changed your opinion on ships. :) For this story, the threesome was less about the actors and more about the characters themselves, especially as the character dynamics are what eventually bring Uther down.
And yeah, the story of Arthur/Gwen/Merlin/Morgana does reflect the story of Uther/Ygraine/Gaius/Nimueh. History has a tendency of repeating itself, and some of them will learn from their past, while others won't, both in terms of the show and the canonical legend.
I'm glad you liked the fic, and I hope you'll enjoy the sequel just as much. :D
