Merlin in the Library

After I read ‘His Quiet Agent' I was delighted to discover this short story on here. I didn't even hesitate, I immediately got my hands on it and started reading.

I appreciated Martin's POV, and while this short story is welcome, it made me a little... not sad, but somewhere along the lines, and content at the same time. I am so happy Arthur is there for Martin. His devotion and patience are limitless, it makes me like him so much more. Martin too, underneath his straight face he's someone so complex and someone who needs just a little bit of attention. It's incredible how much we can learn about Martin despite everything he's not saying.

In a way ‘Merlin in the Library' is a sort of an epilogue where Arthur and Martin settle into a routine together. It's still early, but I have no doubt this is the start to something truly beautiful.
