Title: When You Needed Saving
Recipient: kriadydragon
Artist: Anon
Rating: G
Characters: Gaius, Merlin
Medium: Chalk pastel on black paper
Content Notes/Warnings: Gaius caring for an unconscious Merlin.
Artist's Notes: Happy Holidays, kriadydragon! I was delighted to draw on several of the elements in your signup, not least of which were hurt/comfort with an emphasis on comfort, helpless and hurt!Merlin, friendship, brotherly love, Arthur or someone else taking care of Merlin for a change, and sick Merlin being cared for by Arthur, one of the knights or Gaius. Title taken from The Decemberist's song, "Dear Avery," which always makes me think of Gaius and Merlin.

This is incredible! I love the high contrast between the dark background and the pastels. And such a lovely moment to capture too. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you very much! I love the contrast too, it's why I chose to use the chalk. I'm very happy to know that you enjoyed the moment I chose, too! <3
