Summary
“My father is a manipulative bastard who thought he could tell me how to live my life and I would shut up and accept it,” Arthur whispered, Merlin becoming enraptured with his words. Arthur never spoke about his father. In the whole four years he had known him this was the first time. “He didn’t like what I had to say and I didn’t like what he was doing, so I left and Lance followed.” Arthur shrugged his shoulders once more letting out a deep breath. “End of story.”
“I still think the prince has been captured by mole people,” Merlin replied after a couple of seconds had passed to break through the tense atmosphere, loving the short sharp bark of a laugh that erupted out of Arthur. That was one of his personal favourites, along with the small huff that a smirk would follow that showed off his crooked teeth. Yeah, Merlin was really that gone for his friend.
***
The Pendragon lineage was cursed on the day Arthur was born.
To save himself he walked away from his family and his royal roots.
However his past comes back to haunt him with the world desperate to solve the biggest mystery known to man.

Summary
Merlin had failed. Despite all his efforts, Arthur had ended up dead in his arms on the shores of Avalon, so close to salvation. Surely, this could not be how their shared destiny was supposed to end? No, it was all Merlin’s fault—he had made all the wrong choices, misinterpreting prophecy after prophecy. If only he could go back and try again, now that he knew better, maybe he could right his wrongs. Maybe he— Oh. Maybe he could go back…
Ignoring Kilgharrah’s protests about the impossibility of what he aimed to do, Merlin let all his power loose, becoming one with the fabric of the world and the magic he was born of. After following the bond he shared with Arthur through the winding paths of time, he finally emerged a decade into the past, having successfully seized a second chance to get this whole destiny thing right. Unfortunately, he would have to win Arthur’s trust all over again, seeing as Merlin was alone in remembering anything of the future he was hoping to change. Or…was he?

Summary
It's 2024, and Merlin is still alive. He's been alive all this while, for fifteen hundred years, fifteen sodding centuries.
He's forsaken his destiny. Prophecy be damned.
Waiting for his King's return had left him lonely and broken. He's done with this waiting bullshit.
But perhaps, in a cruel twist of fate, his destiny is not done with him just yet.
In a cruel-er twist of fate, Arthur returns to Merlin, except he doesn't seem to remember Merlin at all.
(Now with extra epilogues!)
