THEY GOT JARED AND JENSEN TOGETHER ON SCREEN WITH RENEGADE BY STYX PLAYING IN THE BACKGROUND AGAIN

sitting in class. .....

This art really spoke to me, and I asked if I could write a drabble to go with it. The artist graciously said yes, though it's ended up more of a one-shot than any kind of drabble. I do hope it does right by the art and the characters - thank you! ***

Arthur would recognize the man anywhere, from the set of his shoulders, the tilt of his head, the stance of his long, lean legs. The man stands at a railing overlooking the lake, elbows resting on the dark metal as he bows his head. The wind ruffles ebony hair longer than Arthur remembers, and the man pulls up the collar of his long brown overcoat against the chill of the December evening; Arthur imagines a red scarf around the man’s neck.

Arthur waits. If the other man senses someone behind him, he does not turn but continues his silent sojourn at the railing. It is mid-winter, and Arthur wonders what brings the man to the lake so late on such a cold night. Is he is simply remembering his days in Camelot, or is he waiting for Arthur to return, searching the place where Arthur died so long ago? Taking a deep breath to calm unexpected nerves, Arthur steps forward, not too close, but enough that he can reach out when ready.

The man glances at him, eyes pinching briefly as if mildly annoyed that his peace has been disturbed, but then he nods in acknowledgment of Arthur’s presence and turns back toward the water. The tower across from them reflects the light of the moon over the ripples of the lake as Arthur moves to stand against the railing. He knows this man, no matter how many years have passed, and his heart breaks as he realizes that the man did not recognize him, did not even give him a second look. He’s not sure how to feel about being forgotten, even if it has been over a thousand years. He swallows the lump in his throat as he searches for something to say.
