masterpost: The Return of a Song  
Title: The Return of a Song
Author: elirwen
Pairing: Arthur/Merlin
Rating: PG
Genre: modern AU, reincarnation fic
Beta: none
Warnings: none
Summary: It has been twenty years since Arthur's return and Merlin still hadn't found the courage to search for him. But nothing can stop destiny.

Author's Notes: It all started with my laptop breaking down after I'd finished my merlin games entry. And of course I hadn't made any backup. So, I wrote the fic again from memory.
This week, I finally bought myself a box for my hard disc, and now I decided to post both versions.
Out of sheer curiosity, I'd love to know which version did you like more, so I created a little poll which you'll find on the end of this entry. :)


First version - here on lj, on ao3
Second version - here on lj, on ao3


[Poll #1836179]

Thanks. ♥

The first has some lines that I really like, but it's obvious that I didn't have a chance to look it over the next day after writing it. (And I didn't want to change it now.) The second is a bit better composed, I think. But I still love them both. :}
