Summary
“So, Merlin,” Arthur says, and leans forward. Despite having climbed a tower that’s taller than the Big Ben, he doesn’t have a lock of hair out of place. Merlin despises him for that, a little bit. “What are you currently doing in a tower that seems to have no entrance and does have a large dragon on top, which really, that doesn’t help with being perceived as a princess, you’re aware?”
“How did you get past Kilgharrah?” Merlin wonders.
“Dragons sleep too, Merlin.”
Or: Merlin has stuck himself in a tower in a desperate attempt to make himself focus on his dissertation. A lot of knights seem to be under the impression that this makes him a princess in need of rescue, but fail to climb all the way up—that is, until Arthur.

Summary
Arthur wasn’t sure exactly when it had started, but now he was sure of it. HE. HAD. MAGIC. It was the only way to explain all the falling branches and mysterious happenings around him. There were just too many coincidences to deny it any longer. But what was he to do?!
His father could never find out. And what if Merlin learned he had magic and began to fear him? For now, Arthur was going to have to keep this secret to himself which is a lot easier said than done when he can barely control it.
Or the five times Arthur thinks he’s using magic, and the one time he figures out what’s really going on. Get ready for another of my patent blend of comedy, fluff and hurt/comfort!
