    Summary

    Princess Ygraine knows her family is a little different, with the King and Queen and their companion, Merlin. To her, Merlin is the quiet constant holding their world together. But when she discovers Merlin's magic, Ygraine makes it her mission to show everyone—including Merlin himself—that the love of her family is a far stronger force than the fear he carries, and that some secrets are too important not to share.

    Summary

    They’ve been treading so very carefully lately, tension in every interaction, striving desperately for normalcy. Both of them are clearly afraid to rock the boat and ruin whatever progress they’ve made, but the longer Arthur observes Merlin’s sojourns to the woods for some unknown purpose (something worth lying about, again), the more difficult it becomes to hold his tongue.

    Summary

    In order to keep the Crown Prince from recognizing him, he took a disguise magic potion and changed his appearance. He made himself look younger - like the age he was when he first arrived in Camelot - his body was smaller, not too gangly, the lines of his cheekbones were softer, his voice became thinner, and he even changed his hair blonde, and long. Standing in front of the mirror with Gaius, they both marveled at Merlin's new look. The only thing the potion couldn't change was his eyes, and he hoped the royal prat wouldn't notice based on that alone. Well, considering how many times he had used magic right under Arthur's nose without the bloke knowing anything about it, he didn't think Arthur could.

    or

    What if Merlin wasn't turning into an old man at the episode Queen of Hearts.

    Summary

    There was a lot Arthur loved about living in Boscastle with Merlin, but it was spoilt slightly by the fact that modern life was out to get him, and the people in the village kept looking at him very strangely indeed.

    As for his neighbour, Mrs Arbuthnot, he would probably be avoiding her entirely if her biscuits weren't so damn delicious...

    Merlin had always suspected that drinking too much ale made people reckless, but tonight he had undeniable proof: it made him reckless. Spectacularly so. At the moment, he was staring at a spinning bottle that was apparently about to ruin his life.

    Summary

    “If not me rushing out to knock out that man, you’d have been riddled with bullets by now.”

    You? That's bloody hilarious. I could take you apart with one blow.”

    Merlin wiped blood from his lip, adrenaline surging, mixing with something hotter. Arthur's grip tightened, bodies pressed close in the shadows, the alley reeking of garbage and gunpowder.

    “Okay. We'll try.” Merlin muttered, dropping to his knees on the gritty pavement. His nose throbbed, blood trickling steady, but he didn't care. He fumbled Arthur's belt open, yanking down the zipper with bloody fingers.

    Agent Merlin nearly lost the man he loved.

    So did Agent Arthur.

    Summary

    He cursed viciously; not because he had to put on a cold, wet, dirty shirt, but because, given the state of him, there was absolutely no way Arthur would believe any of his favored excuses, which meant he’d have to go with Gaius’s standard answer of The Tavern.

    Summary

    Mordred lost his mother. Merlin, his father, is doing his best not to fall apart.

    Arthur is a child therapist. He’s dealt with grief before — just never his own.

    He didn’t mean to care this much. Not about the boy. And certainly not about the boy’s tired, beautiful father.

    Summary

    “Father, with all due respect, you can’t honestly be suggesting that Merlin freed the Great Dragon?”

    -

    It could certainly be described as a rather bad week, between Morgana's kidnapping, and a dragon all but levelling the lower town and making a good effort on the upper, not to mention Merlin's subsequent arrest. Arthur's new orders; to leave Merlin behind in order to meet with the not-so-last dragonlord and attempt a negotiation with his manservant's life as the lure, only feels to be the natural continuation for the entirely unwelcome developments.

    Summary

    It's hard enough being a powerful sorcerer in Camelot, but being in love with the Crown Prince has its downsides. More than anything else, Merlin wants to earn Arthur's respect, yet without his magic he is nothing. But if he can learn to fight with a sword, if Arthur will teach him to be a knight, Merlin is certain that he can have it all. He can keep Arthur safe and earn his respect and his love. He won't have to lie to Arthur about his magic if he doesn't have to use it.

    But life in Camelot is a long gauntlet to run, with new threats at every turn. War looms on the horizon. And in the balance between love and duty, Merlin may have to make the hardest choice of all.

    Summary

    At sixteen, Prince Merlin saw his kingdom destroyed and was forced into an engagement with King Cenred just because of his magic. Now, two years later and on the eve of his wedding, Merlin's crew takes him out on a final voyage before he's forced to give up his beloved ship and way of life forever in exchange for a life of darkness with Cenred. But it isn't long before the trip takes a turn for the worst and Merlin finds himself kidnapped yet again, this time by the unfairly hot and unbearably arrogant Prince Arthur Pendragon of Camelot, the very same kingdom with a reputation for making sorcerers’ heads roll. This should be fun...

    Summary

    Arthur and Merlin have a special relationship. They always have, even when they were prince and servant. While many question it when first noticing, eventually it becomes an understanding in Camelot—and even among some other countries—that where there is Arthur, there is Merlin. And, where there is Merlin, there is Arthur.
    Or

    Arthur and Merlin's relationship as witnessed and explained by others.

    The Round Table has an extra chair that no one put there. Lancelot thinks it's proof that they collectively forgot an entire person. Arthur thinks that's ridiculous.
    But the more holes he finds in his memory, the more believable Lancelot's conspiracy theories become. Now Arthur is in a race to remember what he's forgotten, before he loses the one person he can't live without.

    Summary

    Arthur Pendragon can pinpoint the exact moment his life started going downhill. It wasn't when he came out at thirteen because his childhood had been a relatively happy one, if a little light on the expression of affection and feelings. Because his life isn't the plot of a romcom, it wasn't the moment he met Merlin at a Freshers Week party, got in a fight with him, and subsequently threw up on his shoes. No, the moment his life really went to shit was the day Gwen and Lance got together and broke the pact they had all made four years ago to date outside their group of friends. Because everyone knows that couples spawn other couples, and once all the couples have gotten together, the only thing they have left to do is set up the rest of their single friends. And when you've been secretly pining away after your best mate for the better part of a decade as Arthur has, you'd feel understandably nervous when everyone is suddenly fixated on finding the perfect match for Merlin.

    Summary

    “Merlin has magic!”

    It was all that Uther needed— that momentary hesitation in Arthur’s physique... that doubt thrusted upon him ever since the day he had blinked into a world without loving guardians... that silent second of shock emanating from both sides, surrendering to circumstance and fate.

    It was all that Uther needed to thrust the sword he had into the sorcerer’s chest.
