The fanfiction could delve into the emotional turmoil that such a kiss would cause. Think about it. Merlin has his loyalty to Arthur and Camelot, and Morgana has her own path of revenge or power - seeking. This kiss could be a moment of weakness or a sign of a deeper, hidden love that throws all their plans and allegiances into chaos.
One possibility in this fanfiction could be that Merlin's role as Morgana's servant leads to a complex power dynamic. He might be using his position to secretly protect Arthur or Camelot from within Morgana's sphere of influence. Maybe he has to perform magic tasks for her while also trying to keep his true intentions hidden.
One possibility is that there would be a great deal of tension. Old Merlin has seen so much and has his own wisdom, while Morgana has her own powers and motives. Maybe Merlin would try to persuade Morgana to abandon her dark path. He could use his experience and the bond they once had to appeal to her better nature.
A good one would have well - developed characters. It should stay true to the essence of Merlin and Morgana from the original series while also exploring new sides of them through this kiss. For instance, if Morgana is usually seen as cold, the kiss could reveal a more vulnerable side of her.
After the kiss, their relationship could become more complicated. They might start to have secret meetings to talk about their feelings. For example, they could meet in the forest at night. They may also be more protective of each other in public, but in a subtle way. Maybe Merlin uses his magic to protect Morgana from small dangers without her noticing.
Their relationship could develop in a complex way. If Morgana ties up Merlin out of anger or suspicion initially, but then realizes she was wrong, it could lead to her feeling guilty. This might make her more open to Merlin's friendship in the future, and they could gradually build trust.
The plot could involve Harry discovering his powerful heritage. Maybe he has to deal with the fact that his parents are two such significant and complex figures. He might face challenges from those who fear his potential power due to his lineage. He could also embark on a journey to learn more about Merlin and Morgana's history and how it relates to him.
They might have a tense encounter. Given their past history in the original story, Merlin could be cautious. Maybe Morgana has changed in the future, but Merlin still has his doubts. He might be on guard, ready to use his magic if needed.
Merlin and Morgana's relationship in fanfiction can take various forms. One common theme is the idea of star - crossed lovers. Despite their different paths in the show, fanfic writers might envision a world where they could be together. However, it's also often portrayed as a relationship full of betrayal. Given Morgana's actions against Camelot and Merlin's loyalty to Arthur, their relationship can be a tumultuous one in fanfiction, filled with secrets, lies, and a constant struggle between their loyalties.
The plot might involve Mordred being caught in the middle of Merlin and Morgana's different ideologies. Merlin might want Mordred to use his power for good and to support Arthur, while Morgana has more radical ideas. This could create internal conflict within Mordred as he tries to figure out where he stands. Also, the discovery of his parentage by other characters could lead to a lot of political and social upheaval in Camelot.
She might be shocked at first. Given that in the original story Morgana has her own complex relationship with magic, seeing Merlin's magic could stir a mix of emotions in her, like envy or a sense of relief that she's not alone in her magical abilities.
