    Summary

    “We’re running out of time," Merlin said.

    “You are already out of time. You always have been.”

    Merlin felt the truth of it in his bones. He wanted to kill the old man for it.

    “I’ll be back,” Merlin said. “You know I will. And I’ll remember, even when you don’t.”

    Merlin woke in the woods, made sure Arthur was breathing, killed Morgana, and summoned Kilgharrah. He reached Avalon, bargained with the Sidhe, summoned Freya, tried everything he could think of. When it didn’t work, he killed himself, woke in the woods, and tried again.

    --

    Merlin cannot die. When he does, he wakes up at the beginning of the day of his death. Merlin cannot die, and he won't let Arthur die either.

    Summary

    Look, Robert believed in his team's potential, and he wanted to say he believed they could rise enough in the leader-board to not get cut.

     

    But if being a hero taught him anything, it's that you always want a back-up plan. Insurance, if you will.

     

    Some called it cheating, he called it leveling the playing field.

    Summary

    Ianto hadn’t expected death to be like this. For one thing, he’d thought that it wouldn’t make his back hurt.

    A man pops out from behind the large, sort-of-round console in front of him. “Oh, good. You’re awake.” The man’s sort of… sickly looking.

    “Am I- aren’t I dead?”

    “Nope,” the Doctor announces, popping the ‘p’. “Pulled you out just in time.”

    OR,

    Post Children of Earth, Ianto wakes back up in the TARDIS, apparently not dead. Neither he nor Jack was expecting this.

    Summary

    He kisses Pin on his adorable fuzzy forehead. "Let's go hang out in the pantry while we check if I decompose, Pincushion."
    "And also what the hell we're going to do about that if it turns out I do," he declares to the adorable, empty headed undead critter.

    He scowls at his fox in sudden realisation, dangling him like Simba from that old play.
    "How do you not decompose, you feral little gremlin, you? You're just as undead as I am!" He complains to a chorus of wheezing from Halandil and mildly alarming giggling from Bolaire as he slips out of the living room and into the kitchen to hunt down the Lloy family's pantry, eat their snacks, and note down how his undead body reacts to those snacks.
    Occtis is going to actually kill someone if it turns out that the answer is badly.
