This was lovely, amazing, cute, surprising, totally entertaining, and I just truly love it :).

I loved the characters and the stories about the 2 of them. I truly enjoyed the fact that it was only the 2 of them, no other obligations or people around, and Merlin powers?? totally cool :). Great story!! Be well :)

This was lovely. Merlin rediscovering his magic and his past and his Arthur was all beautifully drawn. The memories and the magic bubbling up unbidden was overwhelming and it's no wonder Merlin kept this madness to himself. With Arthur not acknowledging their past, who could he share with without sounding crazy?

That teleportation believably broke through the wall between him and Arthur, allowing Arthur to get swept along, too. I loved this: "I feel like I've known you forever," he whispers into the small space between their mouths.

"You have," Merlin says. There's such settled certainty in Merlin's statement, of course Arthur goes along with it.

It all made for a gorgeous read.

This was absolutely lovely. I love how Merlin had a bit more solid grip on the memories than Arthur but not by much, and how they both remembered the poisoning thing and then were both a bit WTF just happened.

It's seriously a gorgeous story and I love the tone. I actually read this at 2:30 in the morning, after I had woken up out of a sound sleep and couldn't go back to sleep again, so I think that kind of added to my reading of it, with the floating and Merlin's late accidental night visit. It made it seem dreamlike, which really worked for the story.

Oh, thank you so much! You just put a ridiculously big smile on my face, just so you know. Thank you for giving this a shot even if it was the middle of the night. I'm glad that ended up working for you :)

P.S. I love the appropriateness of your icon! I'm just gonna go ahead and assume that you used it on purpose, haha.
