Summary: Merlin cannot remember Arthur’s face, no matter how hard he tries. It’s simply been too long, and the world has changed too much, and Merlin has changed, too. He happens across a psychic who shows him a vision, and he can very nearly almost see Arthur’s face, but not quite. When the vision ends, Merlin thinks that’s as close as he’ll ever get. Then, while making lunch, he suddenly finds himself somewhere impossible, somewhere that doesn’t exist anymore, sometime that doesn’t exist anymore. But that vision doesn’t last long, either. Until Merlin finds himself back in Camelot again. And again.

Comments: As Turkmasween is a thing this year, enjoy something spooky in mid October. This fic certainly twists from intrigue into oh, OH! and features our favorite - Merlin brimming with magic and love strong enough to conquer death. Of a sort. Confused Merlin is slightly adorable, and I grew very fond of the baker who had no other goal in life but to feed him.
