    Summary

    “I know it sounds ridiculous,” Arthur says. “But I can’t stop thinking about him, Guinevere. It’s like I can feel him. His heart right here.”

    He lays his palm over his chest and holds it there. On an impulse, Gwen joins him. Arthur lets his hand fall so that hers can spread out over the thin layer of linen over his skin, and that’s when she feels it.

    Arthur’s heart beats in the usual rhythm, but there is a flutter there, too.

    No, not just a flutter, a full beat between the others and behind it.

    Arthur lifts his face to hers, and Gwen has never been more thankful that he cannot see the horror spreading rapidly across her own.

     

    (To prevent Arthur's death at the Battle of Camlann, Merlin makes a magical exchange - he gives Arthur his heart in exchange for Arthur's sight. Arthur makes it home, but Merlin doesn't, so Gwen sets out to find him and bring him home, only to discover that Merlin isn't exactly the person she thought him to be.)

    Summary

    Merlin’s skin is still cool to the touch, colder now, from the rain. Arthur swallows and wishes he had something to lay over him. The maids covered him in a blanket last year during the snow. Before that, the flakes piled up in the corners of his eye and the top edge of his tilted lips.

    “He’ll be but three-and-twenty when we’re just about to die,” Gwaine says, looking down at his friend.

    “He’ll be three-and-twenty for the next thousand years,” Arthur sighs.

    He stands and smooths the wrinkles out of his tunic and trousers.

    “We’ll be back for you, Merlin. Sleep well,” he says.

    Summary

    Camelot is a far-off dream, a place which was made for men. They travel through the forest, hunting.

    Merlin lays with the deer and they with him, and he cannot bear their suffering the way he once cared about the suffering of men, so he splinters arrows before they pierce flesh and leaves the rotting bodies of unlucky creatures on the hot stones that circle the men’s fires.

    If they cannot be taught their place in the forest, then they will leave it at least unsettled.

    Men fear decay and death.

    Merlin fears neither anymore.

    (Arthur banishes Merlin from Camelot, so Merlin goes to the forest and slowly loses himself to its magic. By the time Arthur learns what he's lost, it's too late to bring Merlin back by his own will.)

    Summary

    There’s a new web-slinging superhero in Tokyo, but as far as Megumi’s concerned, it isn't worth dwelling on.
    He has no time to dwell on anything, really, between starting life at Jujutsu College and struggling with everything from increasing amounts of homework to dealing with a ragtag group of nosy friends, an overbearing father figure, a steadily worsening caffeine addiction, a bizarre amount of stalking, supervillains attacking the city, and a roommate whose smile is a bit too captivating.
    On top of that, there’s probably something up with Itadori. But Megumi doesn’t want to think about his new roommate and best friend too much— well, more than he does already.
    It’s all slowly driving him crazy. And for some reason, he might be starting to feel the same way about a certain superhero he keeps running into…

    Summary

    Sirius crosses his arms and breathes out loud and slow so that Remus will hear and hopefully be very annoyed. He plays ‘One More Hour’ by Sleater-Kinney.

    remus & sirius are dumb (american) college radio co-djs who, of course, often struggle to express feelings through anything but their playlists
