    Summary

    “Never wander alone, my darling, or Jenny Grinteeth will get you,” Hunith used to say. “Or if you forget, make sure you say the rhyme - that wards her off.”

     

    Jenny Grinteeth leave me be, my mother loves me, leave me be.

     

    Jenny Grinteeth is a game they play. But as Merlin is sucked into life at Camelot, he wanders alone more than ever. He is surrounded by people, but he doubts they love him; they can’t really even know him. The loneliness becomes so routine, he forgets his mother’s warnings and the funny, little rhymes, which might otherwise have saved his life.

    Summary

    “I want to go home,” Merlin chokes.
    “Come home,” Arthur beseeches him, stretching his arm as far as he can.
    He feels the ghost of heat hovering over his palm. He feels it drawing closer until—
    “No.”
    He opens his eyes and finds Emrys poised over him with wide-spread fingers and bared teeth.
    No,” Emrys says again, this time to Arthur’s face.

     

    (Splintered Merlin AU. In a fit of terror, Arthur kills Merlin and regrets everything immediately. Two years later, he gets a chance to make things right when a man calling himself Emrys wanders back into his closest circle. Arthur thinks that he can make Merlin come back to him if only he treats this Emrys the way he should have treated Merlin. Emrys, meanwhile, isn't interested in alleviating Arthur's guilt. He wants to play out his own fairytale; the problem is that there's a dragon in the way.)

    It’s difficult at first, but Arthur can handle Merlin having magic. He can even come to terms with Merlin being absurdly powerful.

    But the discovery of his own weird preoccupation with Merlin’s magic is just too much.

    AKA In which Arthur is dismayed to discover he has a magic kink.
