I love all your little details throughout and particularly loved this line: One day, when he was no longer gangly and young and he’d filled out his body and grown a beard all the way down to his navel, someone would hang the chains of wisdom around his neck. So much love.
I had this picture of him as the old Merlin we all know and how this young version would be him one day. I thought it would be fun to play with that image.
The subtle slash in the wrapping of magic and caressing hands was just perfect!
I love the thought that there could be an erotic element to Merlin's magic. I think that's something I'll be playing with more in the future.
