thinking about immortal merlin going to a super famous artist who is known for having super lifelike paintings a few hundred years after arthur dies and telling them their story and having the artist paint arthur just by merlin’s descriptions instead of by a recreation with his magic and just reliving his life in camelot mentally while sitting on this artists couch as they bring arthur back to life for merlin

#like the artist is known for painting the gods in their likeness #painting something so real despite the fact that the muse is something of belief and faith #merlin walking in and asking for the artist to paint a god no one knows of anymore #the artist making a comment of the name arthur sounding like a man rather than a god #and merlin going ‘he is both to me’#merlin gets free therapy and a lifelike painting of his lost love #and the artist gets a heart wrenching love story and a bunch of money #win win #nothing else the artist paints afterwords ever lives up to their painting of arthur so they reach out to merlin #and merlin gets a bunch of portraits of everyone else from camelot #including his mother #bbc merlin #merlin emrys #arthur pendragon #merthur #angst #i saw sad tiktoks about them and started crying #i kinda wanna write this #i won’t but #it’s a nice thought
