#while visibly erupting more gay lil butterflies every time arthur comes into view
Text
Okay but imagine if Merlin’s instinctual magic was also triggered just by like high levels of gay panic. Like Merlin doesn’t even get past the meet cute without getting caught because he makes eye contact with Arthur and the second his mind is like “mmm, pretty blue” his magic just like orgasms out a plague-worthy swarm of his signature blue butterflies in the exact shade.
Of course Arthur proposes on the spot. He also now carries around a satchel of rose petals to lovingly yeet at Merlin every time they make eye contact to properly reciprocate.
