They have been strongly connected since when they were kids,but at a certain point, when they both are teens, something shifts in the balance of their relationship. How will they cope with it? And what will happen when Merlin starts to understand that the recurrent dreams that he has been having since when he was a child are something more than simple dreams? Will they manage to truly find each other in this new lifetime?
Author's note: For the title I took inspiration from an Italian song "La canzone che scrivo per te" ("The song that I write for you") by Marlene Kuntz.The quote under the signature of Arthur's emails is from the song "Call to arms" by 30 Seconds to Mars while Merlin's
tattoo is a sentence taken from "Extremely lound and incredibly close" by J. Safran-Foer.
