This is fantastic!

I love the fluency of the words, how they basically melt into each other as one sentence flow to the next. There was something almost lyrical to it, and I really enjoyed reading this :)

You know, sometimes I wonder, if Merlin had reveal his magic to Morgana after she got back from the druids, she won't go to Morgausse(sp?) that easily. I think one of the reason she left was because of the feeling that she was alone in Camelot, that there was no one who would understand her. And if she had find out about Merlin, that they do have something else in common, maybe she won't leave. Just an idea I've been toying with :)

Anyway, thanks for sharing this with us!

This was lovely. I always thought there was such potential with Merlin/Morgana and it frustrated me to no end that their relationship (even a platonic one) was not explored very well in series 2.

But I loved how you wrote them here- that build up, the uncertainity slowly transforming into trust, the metaphorical extending of an olive branch, and the whole flower thing. I really enjoyed this.

I LOVE this! There aren't enough Merlin/Morgana fics out there, which is a shame when they are such an interesting pair with so much potential. The what-if scenario here is a perect example of that. The way you wrote this makes me wish - ever more than I already did - that Merlin had revealed his secret to Morgana. You handled this scenario really well, from Morgana's anger to the reason she asks Merlin for help - everything is perfectly in character. I like how the chemistry between them in added in very subtley, even though the fic isn't about a romantic relationship between them, for example here

I love your Merlin/Morgana.

It's always so angsty-sweet and quietly hot.
