AO3Why this must be read:
I'm pretty sure this author is not well known in the fandom, but unpossible has written a couple of great, long stories. This is my favorite of hers. While it takes place in canon Merlin time, it is a complete AU that is utterly awesome in it's originality.
Author's Summary/Excerpt:
“You’re the Prince?” Merlin says, eyeing him. He hesitates, then says, defiant, “The Mad Prince of Camelot.”
Arthur doesn’t move. There’s quiet for a long time, then he says it. “I am.”
“You don’t seem mad,” he says.
The smile wells up from somewhere deep, and very sad. “Well, Merlin,” he says, “give me time.”
