GRASPS A HOLD OF THOSE PAWS TIGHTLY

Okay Yew I wanna start off by saying that I wasn't entirely sure if the CR between them would be superficial because Merlin's stance of 'all women are pretty', though I wanted to say that if Psyche ever posted to the hot or not he put up she'd be a 9/10 or higher.

I WAS WORRIED HE'D JUST BE LIKE TEEHEE JUST ANOTHER PRETTY FACE TO KISSU or something but no they actually talked about stuff esp earlier on. He even was like are you sure you should think highly of me earlier on and that probably had to do with the fact Merlin cottoned onto the fact that she was such a genuinely nice person?? Even after he texted her at like 2-3am about scorpions and mermaids because he's a stupid shitposty dick wizard

Anyway, suffice to say it was extraordinarily easy for him to care about her even with him not...acknowledging that he actually did (he's a mess, why is he like this)

Because of how subtle it was, he didn't notice her crying (but i did notice the red eyes in a thread and went DAMNN SHE CRIED OVER HIM AAAA) ... suffice to say, them being able to talk a little and her being like I MISSED YOU made him :crymeow:

I'm sorry this sounds very shitposty but ilu and this is all very serious, I swear. Anyway, after he kept telling her to be safe, he definitely made an increased effort to keep close eye on her, among a few others even if he wouldn't be able to like...protect her, from anything, lmao

Not that he didn't believe she couldn't handle herself, but the people he cares decently about are far and few in between

The realization that he cared deeply rolled along in about...week 5? Memshare time, when he saw her ex-fiancé (fiancé?) treat her like shit. That's when he discovered he could actually hate someone and partially was like part of the whole 'oh so maybe i might have emotions after all' journey because boy. He was incensed. To the point it was also like, 'wow I can feel like this? not great' but anyway he thinks she deserves happiness and joy...

Then. There was the Billy thing WHOO BOY do I even need to go into that? Don't think so!

The climax to all of this was probably him reaching out after that so there wasn't another Xiao or something, lmfao and then having what I think was an incredibly amazing emotional talk that Merlin didn't discard or push to the side. Partly because of his own personal development by then! But also because he had so much trust in her...

ANYWAY she's a good important friend to him. Anyone who looks at her wrong might get trapped in a nightmare forever, teehee

Just kidding! Or am I :3c
