You are a person who covers your counter space in clutter and inadvertently makes a shrine to a long forgotten god who shows up to thank you.

An explanation for the backstories I created in the epilogue of My breaths are run by your compass

1. In Arthurian legends, Merlin distracts Lot with a prophecy that makes him show up late to the battle.

2. Galahad, Lancelot’s son, is widely regarded as the most perfect knight in arthuriana. Merlin even prophesied that Galahad will surpass his father in valour. (I actually found this out after I wrote that scene. sometimes I surprise me). Also, in the legends, he was knighted after besting his father in a duel; the first and only time that Lancelot ever lost in a fair fight. Most adaptations mention the parallelism between him and Arthur, and how Arthur ends up choosing him as the greatest knight of all.

3. Odin’s son was canonically killed by Arthur. According to s2e2, “Odin's son challenged me to a fight. I had no quarrel with him. I asked him to withdraw. Perhaps he felt he had to prove himself. I can still see his face. He looked so scared...” So it was like a light switch; paralleling him as having magic but unable to use it freely. It’s also a loose interpretation based on Odin and Loki’s relationship in norse mythology and recent modern adaptations.

4. Merlin packs their home in the same purple bag that belonged to 1963 Merlin in The Sword of the Stone. This is purely indulgent because I recently just watched the movie for the first time ever.

5. All the kingdoms mentioned in bbc merlin were elaborated over in the epilogue, either by mentioning how they came to accept magic, or by explaining who ruled which lands.

6. The farm is on the northern outskirts of Camelot, meaning that all the years they spent there they were still connected to Camelot. It also means that they were always close to the Perilous Lands that Merlin revived.

7. The magic celebration took place on the ides of March, replacing the memory of the first ides they lived.

8. Similarly, the last scene in the fic takes place on Christmas Eve, giving us the ending we deserved through a full-circle narrative just like the title alluded to.

“This day I breathèd first. Time is come round,

And where I did begin, there shall I end;

My life is run his compass.”

Somehow, some way, a human managed to acquire both a pomegranate from the underworld and fruit from the realm of the Fae, then made a smoothie out of them. Now, Hades and the Fae are in a fierce argument regarding who the human belongs to.

You started a scam religion for a quick buck. You begin to panic when your fake god was actually a real forgotten one awakened from new worshippers, declared you it's high priest, and granted you the power of healing.

"you know you are only supposed to have 1 apprentice maybe 2 not 15." said the wizard council member "well until people stop leaving surprisingly powerful orphans at my doorstep I'll be taking care of my 17 apprentices." The council member snapped their wand "WHERE DID YOU GET 3 MORE!"

sometimes I think too hard about like. how the ability to record audio fundamentally changed how humans interact with music. can you imagine if the only time you ever heard music in your whole life was when you or another human being in your actual physical presence decided to create it. and 99.99% of the time that person was not a professional but just like your wife or your dad or your co-worker or church choir singing or playing whatever they happened to know. i honestly don't think we can fathom it

luigi mangione, the SUSPECTED (innocent until proven guilty) united healthcare shooter, has been charged with terrorism. that’s right. a man who supposedly shot ONE SINGLE PERSON is being charged with terrorism. because in america, billionaires lives matter enough that a SINGLE rich man’s death is considered a terrorist act against this country. think about that.

When Arthur and Merlin switch bodies, obviously, no one can know that the King is enchanted.

Arthur: gods, they'll know immediately something is up. This might be the worst idea you've ever had!

Merlin: Hey, I'm just as worried as you. I may be a terrible servant, but you've never even touched a laundry bin, how would you know how to wash?

Arthur: I'm not incapable, Merlin!

In fact ... Arthur isn't wrong. He is, in fact, more adept at cleaning than he thought he would be. What's more... Merlin makes a much better King than ARTHUR had realized.

Later...

Arthur: what you did there... With the taxes -

Merlin: you mean make the rich give their fair share so it can be used for the poor? That was your plan, wasn't it?

Arthur: not quite, I mean -

Merlin: *eyeing his shirt* no way that was you. How did you get it this white? It's blinding me!!!

They look at each other.

Arthur: we need this curse undone immediately.

Merlin: agreed.
