Description

scribbled this out after The Wicked Day, finished it now out of boredom.

My personal headcanon theory is that Arthur has known about Merlin's magic for a while now, but because Merlin never says anything about having it, neither does Arthur make any implication that he already knows, since there's nothing he can do about the law against it. But now that he technically can overturn it, Arthur's too full of rage and grief that he's leaving it in place as a sort of passive-aggressive act of revenge. This doesn't exactly mesh that well with canon, of course, but I, like Loki, do what I want.

Ahh sad headcanon. But I like it, and I love the drawing.
