scinscireOkay, so this is what I'm writing about (although I haven't gotten very far, yet):
Based on this song.
Morgana is watching the world 'from above'. She chose to keep her memories and to live on as an immortal when she was presented with the choice as she died. However, as punishment for her selfishness in canon, she must watch over Merlin and Arthur until they find each other. She's fine with it - now - although she wishes they'd really find each other already, so that she can be set free to do whatever she wants.
(Deviation from canon: Merlin died, but he - unlike Morgana - chose to lose his memories and to be reborn.)
Merlin works at a bookshop. He has a weak kind of magic ('household magic'), nothing like in canon, and two best friends in Gwen and Will. Early on, he'll get into a relationship with Mordred, which works fine (but isn't excellent).
Arthur's in a relationship with Mithian (which is also fine; they're planning their wedding). He's working at Uther's company and is generally pretty satisfied with life.
The boys run into each other at the supermarket (without knowing it), and sparks happens - literally - when an unexpected flare of Merlin's magic makes all the lights in the store go out.
After that, they'll run into each other at different places without realising it (cue Morgana being frustrated); each time with Merlin's magic reacting to the proximity between the two soulmates.
However, something is rotten in the state of D-, uh, Albion, and while neither of them are aware (seriously, it sounds like they're completely clueless, but they will catch on... later), both Merlin and Arthur are in danger. Someone - or something - are out to kill them because of an ancient prophecy.
Merlin and Arthur will find each other eventually, and they'll fight the mysterious force/person that wants them dead and everything'll end well.
That's pretty much it.
(Jeez, it sounds really complicated, and I guess it is... but it'll be fine. I'll work it out.)
