    Summary

    “Am I – am I a bad person? Am I evil?”
    Gwaine’s heart almost skipped a beat at those words as his mind tried to reconcile them with the person who had uttered them.
    Merlin. Evil.
    Evil, Merlin.
    Merlin, evil?!

    or

    Gwaine, worried about Merlin's well-being, goes back to the cave as Merlin's conversation with the Diamair unrolls a bit differently. Listening in what Merlin thinks to be a private conversation, he learns many things concerning his friend, and discovers one of Merlin's most deeply buried fears: to become evil - or, worse: to already be it. But does it truly work that way?

    Summary

    Of all the ways Arthur and the knights could've found out about his magic, Merlin hadn't thought it'd be due to a sparrow. There will be a happy ending, but it's gonna take a while.

    "Arthur was terrified when he saw Merlin make up his mind to jump. He put on a burst of speed, willing his body to give everything he had so he could just-reach out and….He crashed at full speed into the warlock, knocking them both out of breath, but most importantly, far away from the edge of the ravine. Merlin fought him, kicking and clawing for escape, but it was clear that whatever had fueled him for so long was gone, and eventually the kicking and punching and shouting was gone, and Merlin wept in Arthur’s arms, trembling hard.

    “Sorry, so sorry, so so sorry. ‘M so sorry, Arthur,” he sobbed desperately, and Arthur held him close, heart racing and eyes wet. “I’m so sorry, please don’t burn me. I’m so sorry. I didn’ mean to, I was born with it.” Merlin cried, and Arthur shushed him gently."

    A huge thanks to the remarkable artists who have been generous enough to bless me with their work. xoxo
    Finally, after two years, I've returned.
