you kiss me and it stops time
❀✿❀✿❀✿❀✿
Merlin is frozen.
He’s stiff and warm and his hands are spread in the air and he thinks he’ll be stuck like this forever. Arthur’s lips are soft, though, and his hands are gentle against Merlin’s cheeks so there really were worse places to be stuck.
Arthur doesn’t seem to think so, leaning back before Merlin can gather his thoughts–and lips– to respond, still cradling his face. He goes to pull away but Merlin finds it in himself to reach out, grasping at Arthur’s wrists to keep him close.
The prince swallows, his lips parted and beautiful, searching Merlin’s face with his crystal clear eyes.
“Merlin… I’m…” He pauses, his brow crinkling. “Do you hear that?”
For a moment, he thinks Arthur can hear his heartbeat, echoing through his ears and through the stables. He can’t hear anything but the rapid beating in his chest and the heavy breaths that pass between them, the world silent around them.
Silent.
Merlin blinks, Arthur stepping back toward the door to the stables, leaning his head out. The servant follows, still holding onto one of his wrists, and gazes out to the castle grounds.
The sun shines brightly overhead across all of Camelot and, at a glance, seems completely ordinary. However, the knights across the field are stopped completely in their long strides, one of the riding horses’ head is turned, its mane circling its muzzle suspended in the air, and one of the servants’ hands are outstretched, a pot of water spilling over but not flowing in the slightest.
Camelot is frozen, trapped in time.
His heart drops, nails digging into Arthur’s wrist, the aura of magic surrounding them familiar. An extension of his own magic, gripping his chest, and a sickly feeling settles in his stomach.
“What…?” Arthur mutters, reaching for his blade, placing a hand on the hilt. “Who could’ve done this?”
His tone is accusatory and asked to the air, not expecting a response and Merlin’s eyes burn from tears. Squeezing them shut tight as he reaches out with his magic, with his very being, he begs anything that could hear to make it all okay. To make time move again and take them both back to that moment Arthur approached him in the stables.
He’s not ready.

Omega Merlin: I'm sorry I didn't tell you. [Looking down to the floor]
Alpha Arthur: Why didn't you? Surely you must know I would've protected you.
Omega Merlin: Omegas are viewed as precious beings to be cared for in Camelot and other kingdoms. [mumbling but could still be heard clearly] Unfortunately my homeland is one of the few where it isn't.
Alpha Arthur: And now? [Reaching out to tip Merlin's chin up] Do you feel safe?
Omega Merlin: [gazing into Arthur's eyes] With you yes. As long as you're near me.

Merlin Soulmate AU where there's a string of fate that only Sorcerers can see. He is obviously connected to Arthur, because two sides of a coin their destiny is intertwined etc etc.
He one day off-handedly mentions it in a conversation with Gaius, who suddenly seems Very Interested in what colour the string is.
---
Merlin: It's red and gold because he's a Pendragon, that's like their whole thing. Even with your old eyesight you can see the banners around the castle come on-
Gaius, who stopped listening at 'Red' and is trying to process Merlin not only liking men, but his romantic soulmate being the Once and Future King: uh huh, yeah.
---
Merlin, three weeks later: Hey, why is Lancelot and Gwen's string also Red? Is Lancelot actually a Pendragon?!
Gaius, who's life is flashing before his eyes:
---
Merlin, after looking up soulmate strings in The Book, muffled through the wall of his chambers: WHAT?!
Arthur, being treated by Gaius when he took a hit in training:...um, Gaius?
Gaius: He's been at the tavern again your majesty.

question for my fellow merthur compatriots, i recently started reading a merlin canon fix-it where merlin’s modern name was emrys hunithson, and like i love that name, touching, meaningful. but that and another post on this website has me thinking about the lovely alternatives merlin might use as his name in a modern world.
like yeah, he could go by merlin emrys, merlin hunithson, emrys hunithson
but imagine if he took up the last name pendragon.
1500 years pass and merlin’s traveling the world as merlin pendragon, as emrys pendragon or better yet
Tumblr media
ambrose pendragon.
merlin signs all his contracts and credit card receipts with the name a. pendragon.
arthur and the rest of the roundtable + gwen + morgana return but can’t find merlin. WHY?
because they’re looking for the wrong name.

sometimes I wake up In a cold sweat thinking about the idea that kilgharrah was just using merlin to get the outcome he wanted which was to end the pendragon bloodline. That he knew how it would end and that without merlin it wouldnt all occur, so he convinces him that all his decisions will help save arthur knowing damn well where it leads them.

So do we just all agree that the knights absolute love Merlin the way cat owners love their cats?
Knights, holding up Merlin from under his arms: so this is Merlin and he’s so nice and we love him.
Merlin: *is actively breaking the law by existing* *has literally killed people* *drops branches on peoples heads* *and even tried to kill the king*
Knights: he’s just a funky little guy :)
I would even bet money he knocks glasses off tables when he wants to annoy someone (Arthur-)
