A Mingling of Magics: The Legacy of Merlin, by Astraea802 (@astraea802) (K+)
It is October 2010, and Dave Stutler is having a rough week. After trying for ten years to forget the magical events of the birthday that landed him in therapy, the NYU physics major finds that the two sorcerers responsible for those events have returned, entangling him in a war that will decide the fate of the world. One in which he, the Prime Merlinean, is at the center. Dave, having finally had enough, was resolved to abandon his training… Until his magic ring dropped two strangers at his feet.
The first is Miles, a 17-year-old Avalon High honors student and fellow fledgling magician, who has had his fair share of evil plots and destinies to deal with himself (though he won't go into details).
The second is… well… Merlin. Which does not bode well.
As the three become involved in a battle of good and evil that has been raging since Merlin's era, they discover foes of Camelot's past, startling truths about their destinies, and a connection to each other that proves their meeting to be more than accidental. Time travel, crossover, and reincarnation fic. In Merlin's timeline, this takes place between Series 3's "The Sorcerer's Shadow" and "The Coming of Arthur, Part 1."
The idea for this fic is so well thought I sometimes forget I hated Avalon High. I love how Astraea802 went about writing the crossover of the century. Can't wait for it to be updated again so that I can read more. Could use a reread.
