Summary
Sequel to "Once upon a time in the park", will probably only make sense if you read that one first. We see how life is going for 6 year old Nick in the days after meeting 5 year old Charlie in the park. Expect some cute pining in kid-style, Nick being not as subtle as he thought he was and age-appropriate evidence that Nick really has no chill when it comes to Charlie.

Summary
So you know how Nick said “I wish I'd met you when I was younger”? It got me thinking: What if they did meet but were simply too young to remember? So that’s when this little idea was born of a fluffy meet-cute of little Nick, Charlie, and puppy Nellie in the park.

Summary
Arthur is a closeted Olympic snowboarder who has only just started to come out to his close friends and family. To the rest of the world, he’s Arthur Pendragon, Team GB’s Golden Boy and best hope of getting a gold medal in the Olympics after coming home with the silver in Sochi (and fuck wasn’t that an experience, worrying about being outed in homophobic-central Russia. To be honest, Arthur feels guilty he even attended those games).
The pressure on Arthur is immense, but as long as he can keep his head down and get on with things, he’ll be fine. Cue Merlin Emrys, a newcomer to Team GB and up-and-coming figure skater who is determined to make his mark on the scene. And he’s fucking hot.

Summary
Arthur survives the battle of Camlann but discovers that Merlin is a sorcerer when Merlin kills Morgana to save Arthur’s life. Feeling angry and betrayed, Arthur banishes Merlin.
Five years later, in a war-torn Camelot, Arthur is finally ready to talk to Merlin, and they realize that they can only fulfill the prophecy together, side by side.
The next morning, they wake up in the past, in their young bodies.
~
“Someone or something has sent us back in time, right to the beginning, with all our memories,” Merlin says, and it’s only now that it dawns on him what that truly means. “Just imagine everything we could do, everything we could change for the better. We could make everything right this time.”
Arthur hesitates for a moment. “Can we even change the future?”
“Yes, I think we can”, Merlin answers with confidence and new-found hope in his voice.
