Summary
"He loved thunderstorms.
That was until he killed Nimueh.
Merlin didn’t know why the storms affected him so much after that. Of course he knew it was somehow about Nimueh, but why did her life weigh on his subconscious more than all the others? "
or
Merlin is not quite himself during thunderstorms, so how does it go when one storm drags on far longer than it needs to and Arthur starts to get suspicious?

Summary
Where there is grief, there are things to be said. Sometimes there's no one to say them to. Sometimes they go unsaid, but the silence doesn't mean that they aren't waiting.

Summary
'The damage seemed to spread out from him like ripples on a pond, and it felt like a gift, like a blessed reprieve to find something that affected only him. The hunger was the one choice he could make that hurt no one, endangered no one, nudged no prophecies with clumsy elbows. Besides, having a secret was nothing new. The revelation was having one that didn’t matter.'
Merlin doesn’t eat properly, but he doesn't think it's a problem. Arthur disagrees.
(Scenes on a theme, before, during and after Arthur finds out.)
