Title: The Right Wind Name: Avis_Shadow Prompt #: 14 [Prompt]Arthur and the knights decide to rent a cabin/house in the forest after they finish university, intending to have some time off and some fun. Merlin is a ghost who died years ago under mysterious circumstances, who is trapped in the house and can't get out. He's completely harmless, but there’s some kind of presence holding Merlin inside the house that always makes sure to punish Merlin (the reason why is up to you) and takes it upon itself to scare all hosts of the house so Merlin never finds company for too long. Arthur notices Merlin's presence and just as something is starting to blossom between them, in spite of the circumstances, things start to go wrong, and Merlin's ghosts come back to haunt them all. Rating: PG-13 Character(s)/Pairing(s): Arthur/Merlin Wordcount: 10509 Warnings: Summary: There's a cycle to what we call life. And if there's one thing Arthur wasn't planning on doing when he went on a trip to a cabin with his friends, it was getting stuck in a power struggle between two powerful forces in this circle--specifically those in the "death" portion. But maybe the friendly (and endearing) ghost Merlin will make it all worth it in the end.
