Summary
"...the briefing room door opened, admitting an old man with pure white hair that fell half-way down his slightly-stooped back and a beard that came down to his waist and clutched a tall wooden walking stick, which was topped with a light purple glass ball... "Daniel, I thought you said he was an expert on Medieval Europe, not an expert from Medieval Europe," Jack muttered."
Starts somewhere in the beginning of season 7 of SG1. Not cannon-compliant with second half of Merlin season 5.

Summary
With Camelot readying for the upcoming gathering of rulers of the Southern Kingdoms to discuss peace, Uther has tasked Arthur with an additional duty: befriend the Prince of Essetir and learn anything he can of King Balinor, and of magic, and of dragons, that might be of interest should the treaty not succeed.
That's easier said than done, as he and Prince Merlin don't exactly hit it off immediately. But, befriending Merlin and learning of magic and life in Essetir leads Arthur down the paths of discovering long held secrets surrounding his own birth, and his mother's ill health, and his father's hatred of all things magic.
Adding even more complications to the mix are rowdy knights, frustrating princesses, a possible traitor in their midst, and an overly-verbose dragon; not to mention the burgeoning and peculiar feelings for his fellow prince that Arthur struggles to put a name to.

Summary
Merlin had failed. Despite all his efforts, Arthur had ended up dead in his arms on the shores of Avalon, so close to salvation. Surely, this could not be how their shared destiny was supposed to end? No, it was all Merlin’s fault—he had made all the wrong choices, misinterpreting prophecy after prophecy. If only he could go back and try again, now that he knew better, maybe he could right his wrongs. Maybe he— Oh. Maybe he could go back…
Ignoring Kilgharrah’s protests about the impossibility of what he aimed to do, Merlin let all his power loose, becoming one with the fabric of the world and the magic he was born of. After following the bond he shared with Arthur through the winding paths of time, he finally emerged a decade into the past, having successfully seized a second chance to get this whole destiny thing right. Unfortunately, he would have to win Arthur’s trust all over again, seeing as Merlin was alone in remembering anything of the future he was hoping to change. Or…was he?

Summary
"How was your journey here?" Balinor asked.
“It would have been pleasant if a certain servant had stopped prattling on during the entirety of it.“ Arthur gave the black haired boy a pointed look, but the servant just shrugged and turned to Balinor.
„Don‘t mind him. He woke up at the wrong side of the bed today, which wasn‘t my fault, may I add. I‘m Merlin.“
And then he stuck out his hand, oblivious to the way Arthur‘s mouth dropped openOr, during the Great Purge, Balinor can convince Uther not to kill all dragons. Instead, Uther magically imprisons him and the remaining dragons at the Dragon's Keep. Now, almost twenty years later, prince Arthur regualary comes to check on him. Things change, when he brings a certain manservant with him.

if anyone asks how the last Dragonlord ended, this'll be my answer

Summary
“A rock?” Arthur stared skeptically at the map laid out in front of him.
“Yes, sire… well, a stone.” The stableboy nodded nervously, glancing at the King before adding, “That is what they was saying. A stone that can’t be tricked nor fooled, one that can detect even the smallest bit of magic in a person.”
* * * * * * * * * *
Or I really liked the idea of a stone that identifies magic users and how strong their magic is from 'A Warlock's Wish' by vividpast and couldn't stop thinking about it.

Summary
When Aithusa senses dark magic in Camelot, she's determined to come to the aid of her dragonlord. But when she gets to Camelot, she realizes that there are many things in the castle that are confusing to a baby dragon. For example: why does her dragonlord act so strangely around his hoard?
(Alternatively: What if Aithusa bonded with Gwen instead of Morgana at the end of season 4?)
(Alternatively: Mergwenthur getting together from a baby dragon's POV)

Summary
Merlin does everything more gently that night—he undresses Arthur slowly, holds his armour more carefully, takes his boots off himself—as if Arthur is going to break any moment.

Zelenka in sequins and an Elvis wig, Novak dressed as Cheerleader Barbie, and Kusanagi as Santa Claus. Definitely not your standard rescue operation, Evan told himself as he adjusted his Mickey Mouse ears.
