    Summary

    Now, he saw the marks painting the canvas of Merlin's body, and he witnessed another story: one of unquestionable fealty. Nor was it born out of duty: a knight's oath to protect the house of Pendragon and the lands they called their home. Merlin's vows were not about the crown that would one day rest upon Arthur's brow. He did not care about titles or power. Perhaps promises of destiny had planted the seed, but it was Arthur – a man like any other bar the circumstances of his birth – who Merlin had fought for with such fervour, time and again.

    Not a knight, but a warrior all the same.

    Arthur appreciates all that Merlin has done in his name.

    Summary

    … and one thing he learns about himself (though not necessarily in that order).

    Written for the Merthur Week 2025 prompts “oh. oh” and fluff.

    Summary

    “Edwin, don’t say it.” Charles groans, keeping his voice low and hushed.

    Edwin strains against the rope infused with just enough iron to make them solid, but not enough to hurt beyond a light-sting, and tries to catch a glimpse of whatever this witch is doing around the corner. God, he hates dealing with witches.

    “I told you this would happen,” Edwin replies, smug and sing-songy. They may be hopelessly trapped and seconds away from being subjected to some new horror, but at least he was right.

    Summary

    No version of this where I don't come get you, is there? He'd said, all those loops ago. And he'd meant it — he genuinely never considered not going to get Edwin. He's always felt drawn to him, like he could understand Edwin on a cosmic level that he was never able to fully describe. He could never fully explain why he stayed with Edwin, instead of going with Death all those years ago — he thought, maybe he was just scared. Scared of moving on, scared of the unknown, but that was never it. He was scared, but not of not knowing where he was going. Somewhere, deep inside he was absolutely terrified he'd never be able to get to know Edwin. That meeting him was just a small intersection of their lives, a crossover in fate, never to meet again.

    So, he stayed, and he was never sure why.

    (Or, Charles and Edwin are the literal reincarnations of Orpheus and Eurydice and then they're a little more)
