This is a sort of a crossover between Merlin and Glee, I love Merlin and I love crossovers even more. The idea was so random that I'm looking at it and thinking, what was I thinking? But I am lacking in inspiration. Hope you all like this. Any requests and I'll be happy to write them now I'm off from exams XD.
Are Blaine and Merlin similar?
They are both young men. Both 'fictional characters'. Both have magic in the way that Blaine sings and Merlin commands the elements. And both have shown devotion at it's greatest and friendship at it's best.
Blaine is willing to protect people he cares about, determined that others don't make the same mistakes as he does, encouraging others to not give up, to not run away and to stand up. He is the Protector who along the way fell for the boy who understood him. Who was like him. And everytime their eyes meet, or their hands joined Blaine knows he has become needed and accepted for who he is. He sings because he can and will. It's his destiny.
Merlin had destiny thrust upon him and yet he couldn't have arisen to the challenge better. Forever stuck to the shadows, he swears duty upon himself to protect the future king. He is also a Protector who's heart often controls his actions, who values justice and friendship above everything else. His regrets make him stronger and he becomes the pillar of support that the prince needs him to be. He has to constantly hide who he is everyday. What he can do could bring the wrath of god and king alike. Yet his courage continues to prevail.
Now what if they met? That would be an interesting situation. They share goals and purposes but they're different. You may not realise it but their regrets and fears, two universes so far apart that it may be unable for them to truly understand one another.
Cinnamon meet Blue and tall meets short as the two men sat opposite each other. Both have an understanding as they observe the others demeanour, so different from when they had last met several years back. Years before they were sent from heaven to watch over their charges, memories previously purged on earth.
"You've changed."
"As have you. Kurt seems nice."
"Yeah. He's great"
It's awkward and yet them. Being separated from each other for so long, with no memory of the other, it was bound to cause friction to their partnership.
"I swear you got the better one. Yours can sing while mine's a dollop head."
Blaine laughed. "You got King Arthur. Camelot! The stuff of myths and legends. And magic powers!"
"Yeah but I have to give the guy breakfast! He hits me!"
"Well you always wanted to know what it was like to be a servant." The teasing is also familiar. Merlin shook his head, his broad goofy grin that Blaine missed accentuating his prominent cheek bones.
"Look at us now. You've got the love you've always looked for."
"And you've found the purpose that you've missed."
A moment of silence for the two. A silence that told of moments experienced and lives changed. Of growth and maturity.
Even Angels need to find themselves in this world that we live in. We all need protectors in this earth that may fail us day by day. These two men were sent to save the ones they were meant to spend the rest of their lives with.
And us? Can we possibly hope that protectors like Merlin or Blaine are sent to us?
Maybe. An Angel in your life may just be waiting around the corner, whispering words of courage and exclaiming promises of wisdom.
You'll be a great king one day
I've been looking for you forever
I think you're mad, I think that everybody's mad, people should marry for love.
I'm crazy about you.
Both of these men. Different yet intertwined across time and space.
