    Summary

    The conversation Tim remembered the most from his first few months as Robin strangely wasn’t the brief before his first patrol, or even the conversation where he’d convinced Batman to take him on. It was the one they’d had after the first time he’d been almost-kidnapped...

    “What’s most important of all is that you don’t stop fighting. I will get to you but if that ever happens, Tim, if you’re ever taken, you will need to be the bravest you’ve ever been. You’ll need to remember that I’m on my way to get you, and you’ll need to try to rescue yourself anyway.”

    Tim had really tried. He had. But he was so. Fucking. Tired.

    Or: When a caged bird can't even sing, what's left for them?

    Tim's been taken, and after everything it starts to feel like maybe the hardest part will be going back home.

    Summary

    Danny doesn't really expect his alliance with Red to be reciprocal anymore. He likes her; she hates him. That's just the way things are, and that's why he doesn't bother crying out when Valerie watches him get dragged away. Phantom would never let Red take a hit; Red wouldn't spit on him if he was on fire.

    But maybe they don't have to be that way. Maybe this time, when he faces a fate far worse than death, Red will come for him.

    Summary

    Everyone he trusted with his secret – Will, Freya, Balinor, Lancelot, and now Gaius – was gone. Arthur would never bring magic back to the land, and he would never let Merlin stand at his side the way Merlin had hoped he would. It was a cold awakening, years of baseless faith dashed against the fraying tapestry that destiny had made Merlin sew into his own skin, but an awakening nonetheless.

    Merlin is shaken out of his obsession with destiny and his blind faith in Arthur. Arthur just wishes he knew how to get his closest friend back.

    (For Merthur Angst Week 2021 Day 7: “No. You don’t get to talk.”)

    A strange mirror has made its way into Camelot. With claims of it being enchanted, Arthur is determined to lock it away as soon as possible. However, while knights and lords and servants have all seemed to be shocked and terrified by whatever visions the mirror presented…Merlin doesn’t seem to notice.

    Until he does.

    Summary

    "I don't think you understand," Merlin said as he started walking backwards, brows wrinkled in confusion. "I can rip your throat out with my teeth and drink your blood. Does that not bother you?" He asked. Arthur finally glanced up from the papers in his hand to look at him, pausing his steps altogether. Merlin waited.

    "...Merlin, you fell over trying to put boots on." He said. Merlin grimaced, looking down at his feet.

    "I hadn't realized you were supposed to wear them all the time." He muttered, uncertain what this had to do with the fact he could murder everyone within a ten mile radius. Arthur sighed. "And those are bold words from someone who can't dress himself!" He added indignantly. Another sigh. Humans did that a lot as it turned out.

    "Merlin, that's your job."

    "And I've taught you several times. It isn't that hard."

    "No, I - " Arthur started and closed his eyes. "I don't have time for this."

    Or

    After living with demons for sixteen years, Merlin decides to explore his human side by venturing to Camelot. Also, he has a destiny to unite his species and bring magic back into Camelot, but he's not too worried about that.

    Summary

    In pursuit of a sorcerer, Arthur and his knights stumbled into a cave. As the ceiling collapsed on them, Merlin had no choice except to reveal his magic or let all his friends die. That choice was not a choice at all.

    As Merlin's magic began to run out and tensions with the knights run high, it seemed he might have made the wrong choice after all.

    Arthur was tipped back against the wall, his mouth open for breath and staring at the small arrow-slit window over Merlin's head, trying to work out how it could possibly be that good with Merlin, of all people.

    Summary

    Stuck in a time sensitive dilemma Merlin goes to Percival to request his help in a most unusual situation.
    -------
    Percival just stared at him, unable to comprehend the situation despite now being wide awake. "You realize how insane this sounds, right?"

    Merlin nodded wearily dropping his arms to his sides. "I'm aware," he said. "But I asked you nicely, and since I rarely ask you for favors at all-"

    "This isn't a favor Merlin," he exclaimed quietly walking closer, nearly stepping in blood. "It's- it's a crime,"

    "Only if we get caught," Merlin responded as if to ease his mind.

    "I'm a knight," Percival reminded him. "I have a responsibility to uphold the law, not break it."

    Merlin sighed. "Okay, I get it. I'm the one who killed him, not you; you don't have to help me if you don't want to. I'll just find another way to get him out of here, the window maybe?"

    Summary

    Arthur gave Merlin his cloak thinking only of the warmth it would offer in a snowstorm. He never thought his manservant may be mistaken for him and snatched by bandits. Nor did he expect his dashing rescue of Merlin to turn his world so utterly on his head.

    Because the bandits hadn't kidnapped a prince. They'd snatched a sorcerer, and now captivity is the least of anyone's problems.

    A golden age awaits, but can they claim it together, or are they doomed to fail?

    Merlin is properly appreciated, the knights are all lovable idiots, and he and sweet baby boy Mordred get into shenanigans.
