thinking of pre canon arthur who was lonely and unloved and abused; of a teenage boy spending his nights in the cold believing that he killed his mother and is nothing but a disappointment to his father.
merlin walking into camelot was the warmest spring of his life skfgskjaf

Arthur, walks in and falls face first onto the bed: Merlin made me feel things.
Morgana, too used to his bullshit: What things?
Arthur: Feelings.
Morgana: Merlin made you feel feelings?
Arthur: Yeah.
Morgana: Again?
Arthur: Yeah.
Morgana: How dare he.

You know how in Hancock (2008) they can only age and be hurt when they are with their “partner”? It got me thinking about a universe in which Merlin doesn’t become an old man after Arthur’s death. He stays the same. Exactly the same. Years and centuries pass and he hasn’t aged a day. Eventually he figures it out, that their souls are so intertwined that he can’t live in a world in which Arthur doesn’t. Literally. He is not alive, but he is also not dead. He’s suspended in time, unable to move on, unable to go back. His hair doesn’t grow and neither do his nails, he doesn’t get sick. It should be nice, going through live without the small inconveniences, but in reality Merlin finds he can’t really experience anything either. Flavors pale in his mouth, the sun feels tepid on his skin. He doesn’t know if it’s this state of not-being or if he’s just depressed, but it doesn’t really matter. Whether it’s magic or his own mind playing a trick on him, life is not life without Arthur. So he just goes through the motion, day after day. He makes some semblance of a routine, of something others might call a life.
Then one day he looks in the mirror and he needs to push his hair out of his eyes. He sneezes.
And he knows.

Merlin: we should tell them
Arthur: no, Merlin. It's too soon. We should try out if this works first
Merlin: there is never a too soon for this! They'll find out eventually!
Arthur: Merlin... I don't think the knights will take this well. They all grew up with prejudices and this one in particular-
Merlin: Arthur, we can't keep hiding Aithusa in our chambers!!!

What if, when Arthur returns, he sees Merlin as he remembers him, thirty something summers old, short hair, clean face. But everyone else sees the quiet old man, kind but lonely, with a long white beard and a new young man who steps on his heels throughout town as though he's known him. Arthur wonders why Merlin strokes his chin so frequently whilst others see him clearly comb his fingers through his beard. Despite claiming that no one knows his true identity, people constantly call Merlin sir and speak to him with some subtle underlying respect of sorts. Arthur looks at him sideways as he scratches his cheek, or grunts as he climbs to his feet. And it takes a long few months for them to realize that something is off, that Merlin has two faces. One of them is from a time long forgotten, but familiar to the one man who knows his name. The other shows the years that have passed between then and now, and allows him to slip into the background of the modern world.
