Summary
Considering Arthur's future wife will be chosen less for compatibility than for her political value, Merlin may be the only marriage he'll have that won't end in bloodshed or a great deal of fortifying wine.

Summary
“These are for you.” he says, trying not to sound too sullen as he hands him the bunch of flowers...“Bit forward isn’t it?” he flips it over to show Arthur. My love for you grows is written in a fancy script. Arthur groans and puts his head in his hands. Merlin is still giggling by the time the waiter comes to ask them if they’re ready to order.
Every single Valentine's Day Arthur gets Merlin flowers. It becomes a thing.

Summary
“Sometimes you do puzzle me,” the prince said with the hint of a smile in his voice. It was almost their usual teasing, and Merlin felt steadier though his stomach still flipped and his heart still beat too quickly.
“We’ll defeat the dorocha. We will. Together.” Merlin made the pronouncement to steady Arthur too, truly believing it. He knew Arthur often did not believe in himself—despite having proven himself many times over, he still doubted his own abilities, and Merlin often decided he would not stand for it.Arthur gives Merlin his mother's sigil. Merlin understands what that means.
Based around the animations by Lauravian on tumblr. Title taken from Awake My Soul by Mumford and Sons.

Summary
There have been rumors of Prince Merlin’s powers throughout the five kingdoms since his birth. Uther is one who covets Merlin’s power for both Camelot and Arthur’s reign, going as far as inviting Merlin to Camelot when he presents as Omega.
When Merlin travels to Camelot on behalf of his father's kingdom, he finds an arrogant and unlikable Arthur yet inexplicably finds himself saving both Camelot and Arthur anyway before finally returning to Essetir. It is only when his younger brother Mordred supersedes him as heir presumptive due to presenting as an Alpha that Merlin returns to Camelot.
Once again, Merlin and Arthur work together to save Camelot and then to get through the consequences of their fathers' enemies seeking revenge.

Summary
Arthur was a battle-hardened warrior, trained to think in a snap and move quickly on his feet.
But at that moment, he froze.
He heard a cry of pain.
Merlin's cry of pain.
After a mission gone wrong, Arthur and Merlin, both terribly injured and barely upright, have to make their way through the forest and reach safety in Camelot. But even then, Merlin's still not safe, for the bonds of class and hierarchy put his life at risk, especially as Uther as king.

Summary
Merlin was a kind and gentle soul, sometimes too kind and too gentle for his own good. Or you know, his own wellbeing. Arthur on the other hand, well…there was a reason that Arthur’s manservant was considered off limits. Any who dared harm him was not long for Camelot (or this world for that matter).
Or the five people Merlin unintentionally gets exiled, and the one he gets exiled on purpose.

Summary
Present day city of London and Merlin Emrys is the new, wide-eyed, and emotionally conflicted Detective Constable in Scotland Yard. Arthur Pendragon is the arrogant, handsome and heroic Detective Sergeant.
A spiral, a signature, on a victim’s throat reopens the decades old mystery of the Old Religion and leads them into an unconventional partnership in their attempt to solve it. Unaware of it’s true extent, their involvement sparks a fated chain of events governed by magic, love, and darkness.
Magic has found a new role to play in the modern world, and London is its theatre. Merlin stands, unknowingly, at the centre of this stage.

Summary
Started off as my answer to Tumblr's @merthurmicrofic prompt: Touch
Again, my ability to understand Micro fails me.
Like really fails me, second chapter destroyed microfiction dreams.Merlin meets Lance's group of Alpha friends, and find they're all very big on touch.
Well, all it seems, except Arthur.Just simple cuteness, no 18+ content. Tonnes of swearing though, and some insinuations, but no actual sex.
Now with second chapter Arthur's POV
And kissing, because as a commenter rightfully pointed out, no kissing was unacceptable.
Happy Reading!Series
