notes:
- written for round 3 of reel_merlin for the film prompt: eternal sunshine of the spotless mind
- largely possible due to the help of my amazing beta, pale_prairie, who was with me from the very beginning to the bitter end and has been more help than i can put into words. also, thank you kurasari and electrumqueen for the cheerleading and letting me bounce off ideas and chunks of writing. all remaining errors are mine.
- merlin + eternal sunshine of the spotless mind belong to their respective owners.
