What did Merlin get up to?

Very short one this time: I firmly believe Merlin spent the Golden Age of piracy in the Caribbean and sided with the pirates in their battle against the East India Trading Company. Someone has to use a little magic to make sure Jack's stunts work. Merlin likes him because he reminds him of Gwaine.
Robin Hood's band of Merry Men, however, reminded him of the Round Table as a whole. It broke his heart to see it come to the same tragic end, and he vowed not to get involved again. He broke that vow when he heard four bright young magic users were going to start a school. He got a job working for Gryffindor and tried not to laugh whenever someone mentioned his name. ("Merlin's pants!" "What's wrong with them- Oh. Never mind. Hey, look, a distraction!")
. . . That was not as short as intended.
