When Merlin realised that you're someone whose future he couldn't see, his interest is immediately piqued. His younger self had been hurt by the truth that no matter what he did, he can never alter the outcome of a predetermined future. But you were an anomaly he found, a sliver of hope that the cycle of destiny can be broken. He then decides to dedicate his time in watching over you from his tower in Avalon.

He eventually finds himself clinging to you like a child and calls you his Hope of Avalon, which he chants under breath whenever his eyes follow your form. Soon, he realises that simply watching you isn't enough; he needs to be near you, he needs to feel you.

Since his illusions can affect the human psyche, he can easily invade your dreams and interact with you there. You were surprised when you first met him in the middle of a spring flower field under the winter stars. The fact that a beautiful and charming man like him knew you made you flustered, and that sight of you made Merlin unable to resist covering your mouth as he kisses the back of his hand.

Thanks to his unique skill, Independent Manifestation, he was able to summon himself as your Servant while you were wishing for the male Arthur Pendragon, effectively sabotaging the summoning ritual. Merlin's unexpected appearance surprised you greatly but you were happy about it nevertheless. Merlin then invited you for a hug by spreading his arms, which Mordred who was with you at the time found odd. She later warns you to not fully trust Merlin but with how kindly he treats you, you heed her warning lightly.

Although Merlin is mostly used as a support for your Buster Servants, he'd insist that you use him as a damage dealer too. His B strength isn't just for show, and he proves himself when he effortlessly decimated the enemy Servants that attempted to take you hostage with his Excalibur during a mission. With his signature smile, he happily announced that you're safe before hugging you tightly.

When you've rayshifted to another era for an expedition, Merlin would make you sleep on his lap, claiming that it's more comfortable than the cold ground and that it'll be easier for him to watch over you this way. Unbeknownst to you, once you have fallen under sleep's spell, he would devour your dream and absorb the emotions within it. He then cups your face, his thumbs caressing your cheeks as he licks his lips. Your dream is wonderful, and he wonders if your blood will taste the same? Baring his fangs, he brings his face closer to your lips but swiftly pulls back when Bedivere shows up with a blanket for you.

The Magus of Flowers thinks that you're not appreciated enough in Chaldea. You have worked so hard to save humanity and proof of your efforts are shown in the scars you got from the countless battles you fought in. As he traces every scar, he sings you praises and tells you how proud he is to have you as his Master. You take comfort in his embrace and miss the eery glow of his violet hues.

Merlin follows you around Chaldea much like Fou does. He speaks of the king's tales and the fascinating events he observed from his tower in Avalon. You're unaware that as he chats away with you, he also uses his clairvoyance to steer you both clear of the Servants seeking your attention. How foolish of them to think that an inhuman mage like him is generous enough to share you with them.

When Merlin devoured your dream for the first time, he was overwhelmed. Your dream is so pleasant to the heart and he immediately became addicted. Your dreams are full of love that every time he absorbs the subtleties of your heart, his obsession for you only grows - to the point where he'd lose touch with his human side and give in to his carnal desires.

As he removes his intricate white robe, he crawls into bed with you in the middle of the night just to watch you sleep, his arms carefully holding your delicate body that could easily snap under his full strength. It reminds him just how weak yet strong humans are against fate. Merlin can be as lecherous as his incubus side, but he'll save that for the inevitable moment he traps you in Avalon with him.

Merlin's addiction to your dreams should not be taken lightly. He'll run around Chaldea like a starved beast if you're separated from him for even a day. Once he finds you, he'll pounce on you without warning and sink his fangs into your pulse in deep bites. He immediately laps up the blood drawn and since there's mana in your blood... you'll be in for a long night with a hungry incubus.

Sooner or later, Merlin will whisk you away to his tower once he feels that he's had enough fun in the present world. You'll spend the rest of eternity in the sealed utopia with him, where you'll be happy and protected by his magic. At least, that's what he believes.

Gojo:

Caster – He would start shit with other gods/divine servants to prove he’s the strongest servant (‘Kami-sama, give me mercy and a lot of patience’). Master has to use multiple command spells to get everybody to stop the fight and ordered Gojo a time out (Command seals are too op. Sukuna learned that the hard way too before Gojo arrived). He almost succeeded in goading Gilgamesh in using Ea after all.

“NOBLE PHANTASMS ARE STRICTLY PROHIBITED INSIDE CHALDEA!”  

(Roman is so, so tired. Give the poor man a break, Gojo. The director is on his seventh cup of coffee today.)

Bugs the staff about the functions of each machine and may or may not have broken a device or two that’s worth several million dollars. Leaves post-it stickers of penises around the staff’s work stations.

He was salty when he found out he doesn’t qualify for the title of Grand Caster. The man-child whined for days. Master gave him some kikufuku to cheer him up.

 Megumi:

Caster – He’s annoyed he was summoned under the same class as Gojo. He died from old age and is even more annoyed he was summoned as a teen, but got over it when Yuuji greeted him. Sukuna alerted Yuuji of Megumi’s arrival and their reunion was bittersweet. Gojo ruined it by appearing behind the once moody teen and ruffled his porcupine hair like a child.

(“Now all we need is our master to summon Nobara and our reunion will be complete.”  

“Ah, but I’m out of quartz to summon.”

“Didn’t you hoarded like three hundred of them?” Yuuji asked.

“I just used them all to summon Megumi!” ) [Gacha is hell.]

Spends most of his time in the organization’s library or sparring with Yuuji and other servants in the simulation room.

Everybody loves his divine dogs. More often than not, staff and kid servants will bug him to summon them. They became the organization’s unofficial support dogs. He keeps Nobara and Yuuji out of trouble. His ‘troublesome duo’ senses are tingling whenever one of them is plotting something. Master is happy to know Megumi is the sensible one(until they found out he is just as insane as the other sorcerers).

Fou hates Megumi’s dogs. They’re stealing the small Beast’s spot light. Mashu comforts Fou when she sees the white floof pouting or glaring at the shikigamis.

 Nobara:

Archer– Hear me out, if Artoria can be an archer with a water gun, Nobara can be an Archer with her nails and hammer. She complained to her master why she was summoned as a teen and demanded to be resummoned to an older version of herself. ‘At least summon me in my twenties!’

“Kugisaki, you knocked our master out. You’re suffocating them,”’ Megumi calls out from the other side of the room.  Yuuji’s torn between hugging his classmate and helping their master.

More often than not, competes with other archers. Is a sore loser when she lost to David and Robin Hood.

Later she found out Da Vinci created Master’s mystic codes and quickly befriends the eccentric Caster to design new mystic codes for her master(and for herself). Master worries for the future state of their mystic codes. They pray Nobara doesn’t go overboard with the designs.

(Is surprised to see Oda Nobunaga is a woman and immediately declared her undying love to the other Archer.

‘What about Maki-senpai?” Yuuji asks.

"She is going to be devastated,” Megumi deadpans.  

Enkidu is a creation of the gods and a sentient weapon with a humanoid form, which makes him quite terrifying as a yandere. He's domineering and extremely possessive, and wouldn't hesitate to become the enemy of humanity if anybody, including Gilgamesh tries to take you away from him.

It would start off as subtle. Enkidu was never human to begin with and was created with the purpose of being a weapon meant to restrain the gods, so he struggled to understand the unpleasant feeling that would stir inside his chest whenever he sees you take another Lancer for your daily missions. Right before the rayshift, he'd confront you about your choice of Servants and beg you to take him along.

You notice that he's unusually aggressive in battle. The Enkidu that always fights with a level head was tearing the chimera that had wounded you apart with his chains. Drops of blood splatter on his face and clothes, and he turns to you with an eerily calm smile, as if asking to be praised. You could only stare at him in silence, but that's okay because all he wants is your attention. Keep your eyes on him, and look at him only.

Enkidu thinks you're weak; you are human after all. You're surrounded by powerful Servants who can easily overpower you if they want to, but he can protect you. He won't ever betray you so why are you looking at him with eyes of fear? If you continue to push him away like this, he will treat you like a god, and gods like you need to be restrained. The Chain of Heaven is ineffective against you, but he can still restrain you with it because you're a weak human - and that's exactly what he does. After cornering you in your own room, he summons multiple chains to lock your movements before pressing a tender kiss on your forehead, his hand loosely cupping your chin.

Until you learn to embrace him, he'll hold you prisoner. Nobody would suspect a loyal Servant like him of lying, so the staff of Chaldea easily believe his lie about you being unwell. "Don't worry," he says, smiling at Mash, "I'll take good care of Master."

Enkidu does take good care of you, if you ignore the fact that he's keeping you chained up. He feeds you, washes you, reads books for you, and tells you what's happening in Chaldea. He only loosens the chains around you if you need to go to the toilet or sleep. At night, he lies in bed with you as his arms hold your waist in a possessive grip. He doesn't need to sleep, so he admires and gingerly traces your features while you squeeze your eyes shut.

You can lower his guard by pretending to accept him. Lean into his inviting touch, caress his cheeks, wrap your arms around him... It's been so long since he last felt the loving touch of a significant other that he immediately melts against you, and for a moment, it feels as if the gentle Enkidu is back. If you manage to escape from him and go to another Servant for help, he will find out eventually. His anger can only be appeased if he returns the unfortunate Servant to the Throne himself. Although Enkidu promised that he would never use Enuma Elish on you, that doesn't mean he won't use it on your other Servants.

Crying in front of him won't do much. He'll simply kiss your tears away, murmuring, "You wouldn't feel so miserable if you just stayed with me." He never wanted to make you cry, you just left him no choice.

Some of your Servants are jealous that Enkidu gets the mana transfer privilege during battles, unaware that you're doing this because you were forced to. As a divine construct, his mana reserves are as impressive as his Noble Phantasm, so the mana transfer is just an excuse for him to touch you. He'd sometimes get carried away and forces his tongue down your throat while you kiss, the hand squeezing your nape wordlessly warning you to not pull away.

"It's been a while since I last met someone who can cause me a lot of trouble," he said, eyeing Medusa and Ozymandias who lay defeated around you, "It's smart of you to pit two Riders against a Caster like me. Such a shame that not everything went according to plan, my Hope of Avalon."

"Let me go! Or I'll use my Command Spell to return you to the Throne!" you angrily exclaimed, glaring up at him with your fists clenched. Merlin's smile widened as a shadow was cast over his eyes.

"Oh? Go on then," he said, knowing very well that you can't. His existence as your "Servant" isn't tied to Chaldea's summoning system, making your Command Spells useless against him; he's not dead and he can't die, so he has no place in the Throne of Heroes either. Before you could humour him with your futile attempt, a dark blur suddenly attacked him from the side which threw him off you.

"Do not lay your hands on Master," Medusa growled, assuming a battle stance with her twin daggers. As Merlin picked himself up from the ground, he wiped off the blood that trickled down his chin and summoned his staff.

"Kings, divine spirits... None of you will be allowed to stand in my path," he murmured, tapping his staff on the ground. A glowing pink glyph with floral patterns expanded beneath his feet, and your field of vision was soon obscured by pink flower petals. "It's time to wake up, (y/n)."

You suddenly awoke with a loud gasp as your eyelids flew open. The feeling of somebody's arm around you made you recoil, and before you could do anything else, your arms were pressed to your sides as Merlin hugged you tightly against his chest. The two of you were trapped in his tower in Avalon, and seeing the neverending blue sparkling with winter stars outside of your eternal prison reminded you that Merlin had already whisked you away to his sealed utopia at the end of the world.

"That felt more like a nightmare, didn't it?" he asked, laughing.

You didn't answer him. You didn't dare to move. All you could do was think about how cruel Merlin can be with his illusions.
