And So We Fade - 4800 words, Merlin/Arthur, PG-13, flangst, future fic, minor character death, incomprehensible physics, and the coin thing is shamelessly stolen from T.H. White (with my deepest apologies) - the servants tended to look away when it came to Arthur and his sorcerer (to Merlin and his king)

Oh my gosh, thank you so much! I'm obsessed with future!Merlin-and-Arthur and I was so nervous that this was just going to be terribly OOC so I basically love this comment! Thanks for reading!

this was just...so beautiful. Them knowing that one day, they will be without each other. Its just enough that i just wanna to place them in a world where their biggest worry is should they get un-cuddle in order to get food and drink.

Thank you! I know, I'm sort of a terrible person, but I just love how tragic this relationship is: they've got to cling to each other because circumstances push them apart. And obviously I must now write a sequel in which there is lots of cuddling!! Thanks for reading!
