[ Light and dark, hope and despair, these things conflict, yet intermingle all the same.
What is the world—no, the myriad of universes—without its layered subtleties? Merlin himself is inexorably drawn to both. Watching from his tower, he doesn't usually experience such things personally. Even if he should stride along Chaldea's floors, and interact with the Servants, bastion of the last vestige's of humanity, he can only witness.
Exceptions were borne when he was summoned on that one Singularity. And now, here, where it seems like darkness stubbornly persists. But beautiful songs of faith still eke out through gaps of disillusionment. Persistence in despair. Sweet kindness in the face of relentless depravity.
The bright light that awaits at the end of tunnel. A sign of a good ending, after the dust has settled, despite all the pain. ]
I'll consider that more than simply a wonderful happenstance~
I've never liked the idea of viewing one without the other. Within the mix unveils a complexity that can be described as part of human nature...mm, and maybe all people.
But, maybe, most important of all is that it's something that draws us all together. Whether we realize or not. A mark of our distinct and wonderful individuality, that sparks us towards looking ahead.
Still, indulge me a little more? Tell me, what's spurred on this change within you? Was it the people you met? A single occurrence? A monumental memory?
[ Ahh...maybe he's talking words that may sound like just far-too introspective wanderings. But, Merlin leans in for a teasing kiss aimed at the other male's cheek. ]
