The Resilience of Dust by luxorien (PG)
Fandom: MERLIN
Pairing/characters: Gen, Merlin, Arthur Pendragon, Greco-Roman Gods
Length: 7300
Author on LJ: luxorien
Author Website: n/a
Why this must be read:
Summary: "Merlin can't save himself because Arthur is right there, so he has to put up with his king's attempts at a rescue. The result will surprise them both."
I love when authors incorporate mythology into their fics and luxorien does a great job of interpreting Merlin as Ganymede here (the fic is a result of Merlin RBB and is inspired by the lovely artwork, "Merlin as Ganymede", by the_little_owl). This is a great gen fic focusing on Merlin and Arthur's friendship with great characterizations and wonderful details with both the dialogue and descriptions. There is a strong canon element to the fic that works really well and I loved how Greek myth was tied into this fic.
