Right?! Episode 11 would've begun with Will being like, "No, YOU touch the unicorn hahaha," (SREIOUSLY, DID MERLIN TOUCH THE UNICORN BEFORE OR AFTER IT DIED?? I COULDN'T SEE) and Arthur replies, "What are you, twelve? LET'S JUST KILL IT." And when Arthur presents the horn to Uther, Will pipes up in the back being like, "I helped!" (And then, once it's discovered that this is the cause of the curse, he's like, "It's all Arthur, dude.")
So it's all three of them off to the maze, because Will does feel bad about being partly responsible for the whole curse thing. Maybe if he hadn't been so encouraging during the hunt. "Don't be stupid, it's not your fault," Merlin says, but Will is adamant. Will is more practical than Merlin, but he still does have that secret noble streak that makes him heel-face-turn from "run away!" to "sacrifice self for ex's new boyfriend". Oh Will.
Do you think in this AU that in the finale, it would be Will that goes to die on the isle instead of Gaius??
