This is wonderful, as usual (when you're "on"). Had to look up Anteros - useful deity, stings me daily.
As for Merlin... which was his imprisoner, Vivien, Nimue, or Morgana? What long thoughts he thought, vitrified in his own mind... but I also like T. H. White's take: Merlin tells Arthur (to his confusion, as usual) that, living backwards, he's well aware of how he's going to be trapped. And, he confesses, "rather looking forward to it."
It's a good feeling, isn't it, breaking up with a girl? Even if you see her again in some later year and she gives you a white feather on Mafeking Night? Anteros' arrows must be fletched with them...
