Summary
Arthur stares, bewildered, barely registering Merlin's words. Merlin looks thrilled, elated, in a way that he hadn't seen often even back in Camelot.
Something really good must have happened, Arthur thinks belatedly. Did someone else come back? Was the world-threatening crisis he returned for somehow already averted?
Naturally, of everything possible he thought of, he didn't expect the words that next came out of Merlin's mouth.
"Arthur! Arthur, I'm going to die!"
Or, in which Merlin discovers that upon Arthur's return, he is now mortal, but chooses to word the fact in a way that makes everyone panic.

Summary
Merlin, along with his freshly reincarnated friends and newly returned Arthur, sit down and catch up about the last 1500 years of lifetimes (because they're all in quarantine and hence are unable to fight the big bad evil Arthur returned to defeat).
Somehow, along the way, it turns into a vent session. Turns out a lot of them have curiosities, pent-up-frustration, and unresolved bets building up over the centuries that they need to talk about.

A side effect of Merlin's magical ability is an uncanny connection to the weather, which seems to change accordingly to Merlin's moods.
Arthur, who is still refuses to put two and two together about Merlin's magic, has no idea why the sky changes so often. Until he does. -
