[CG] Juniper (gen, PG)

[hopechan.livejournal.com]

Title: Juniper
Rating: PG
Warnings: Slight spoilers for R2 episode 7? I guess? If you squint?
Word count: 2,400
For: kill_me_faster, because (a.) she was the one who first told me about Merlin's property of aging backwards, which inspired this fic, and (b.) because I think I have yet to not dedicate a CG fic to her even though she's not really...in...the fandom anymore. W/e. Love you Demi!
Comments: As mentioned above, this is based around the conceit (I think taken originally from The Once and Future King) that Merlin ages backwards. I sort of deliberately misinterpreted that, sort of along the lines of that one XKCD comic strip. W/e.
Summary: Living takes a toll.

( History's no truer for you, but at least it's simpler. )
