    Summary

    "You have magic." Arthur declared, eyes wild in his panic.

    He had seen Merlin. His clumsy body had brushed all inelegance away seamlessly, arm lifting and eyes flashing amber in one movement. Arthur felt a breath at his neck, all too late, before Merlin spoke a forgotten language and snap.

    A thousand sunrises shone in his eyes as Merlin ruined Arthur's life.

    or: Merlin has magic and refuses to sleep, and Arthur doesn't deal with either of those things well.
