The bit with the apple made me very warm and fuzzy on the inside.
Brill.

This warrants several readings for all the things in it. So many ideas. A particular thing I'd love to see developed is this:

"...This kind of vulnerability is like a bleeding wound that will never heal, and Arthur knows why sorcerers burn in the city square for a woman long dead and almost beyond memory; there's nothing that his father's done that he wouldn't do and do better. He'd tear apart a kingdom if Merlin asked it of him..."

My heart is in my throat and I can barely breathe. I have to stop before I can continue. Oh Arthur, Arthur.

Ahhhhh such a delicious fic.

I loved it that Arthur knows but Merlin doesn't know that Arthur knows and thinks he doesn't know. Simply delicious. And the way Arthur found otu was hilarious and kind of sad too. Merlin was just soo tired. Cute.

And the sea serphent makes me go all awwww and hopeful s/he finds a way home.
