Word Count: ~7,700
Notes: Look, I don't know how this happened. Three months ago I wasn't even watching the bloody show. About a month ago I was ambushed by a plotbunny of extraordinary viciousness (to wit: what if Merlin's magic was tied to his physical purity?), and here we all are.
Warnings/Spoilers: Takes place during late series 2; general spoilers through to and including 2x10. Not Britpicked, so if anything jumps out at you please let me know.
