Title: You Have To Chase It By: @arthurandhisswordbros Gift for: @ilikepickles / canonwhatcanon Rating: Mature Word Count: 41k Warning(s): No Archive Warnings Apply Creator Notes (Optional): Okay, so I had absolutely no clue that this would end up over 40k, but I wrote, and then I kept writing, and then just didn't stop, so @ilikepickles, I really hope you don't mind such a long fic! Thank you to @chiahead74 for taking the time to beta this and giving me excellent feedback. Thank you to all of my online (especially on discord) and irl friends for being the best cheerleaders; I wouldn't have been able to do this without you. And finally, a huge thank you to the mods for setting up this fic and being so accommodating. Summary: “Oh, I don’t know who he really is—no one does,” she says. “Although, some people think he’s probably a grad student doing some avant-garde project for a thesis or something. Others think the whole account is just an elaborate advertisement for Budweiser.”Arthur doesn’t understand most of what she just said but nods anyway.

Squinting her eyes, she gauges his confusion regardlessly. “It’s someone pretending to be the famous sorcerer. See here, this is his most recent tweet.” At Arthur’s odd look, she clarifies, “It’s like a message that everyone can see.”

@asorcerersays: Guys why did he have to be so hot and like,,,funny? Like it’s been forever and I still miss him. He was pretty dumb though.

Arthur knows his face must look disgusted. “For everyone to see?”

Or, Immortal!Merlin goes on Twitter to complain about his dead king. Unrelatedly, Arthur joins Twitter.
