So Merlin/merthur (same thing right?) is trending again because of this wonderful beautiful fandom, and I would like to contribute to the madness with another fic rec. This one is devastating, so proceed with caution.
looking at you looking at me (sometimes it lasted love, but sometimes it hurts instead) by lunchee: https://archiveofourown.org/works/321509
Summary: (Using the author's summary this time so as not to spoil the fic-) Arthur can't let go. Merlin forgets.
Notes: I mean, this one will probably definitely kill you. VERY effective if you need a good cry, and even if you don't, you'll still cry. I'm not very coherent after reading this, but just know that I save my favorite quotes from books, fics, and TV and when I went back to comb through this fic for quotes, I basically quoted the entire thing. So, it's beautiful.
