Artist's Notes: The moment I read your prompt and saw Arthur/Gwaine/Merlin, I remembered a story you wrote, "Not Gold or Riches", which I immediately knew I had to illustrate for your Merlin_Holidays gift. I would like to thank you for making me so welcome in this fandom when I first discovered it, and for being such a lovely ~~enabler~~ person and fantastic writer. Happy Holidays,

marguerite_26, I hope you like it!

His face must have given him away because Merlin’s expression softened and he whispered, "But only with you here. You know that, right?"
