    Summary

    Alright. Merlin’s going to be honest. Is the absolute best at hiding his magic from people? No. Is he a damn sight near better than some other bastards would be if they had his magic? Yes, yes, he is, thank you very much. They would do quite well to remember that he is magic, and he’s had it since he was born, so he knows what he’s doing when it comes to knowing that he has it. Yes, thank you, he doesn’t go around doing every single thing he could with magic because well, then he’d never get to do much of anything ever again.

    And that would be boring.

    Summary

    When Camelot is hosting an archery contest Merlin decides to enter for a bit of easy money, and enlists the help of Lancelot to sweeten the pot for both of them. Who would think the two kindest people in the whole kingdom would swindle everyone there out of all their gold.

    "You said he couldn't shoot!" One of the knights shouts.

    Lancelot shrugs. "I had to make sure you would bet against him somehow."

    "Unbelievable." Arthur comments. "You two swindled everyone here!"

    "It was nothing personal." Merlin clarifies.

    Summary

    The routine has been the same for centuries: Arthur begins a new life in wherever they are in time, he and Merlin meet, Merlin’s memory spell lifts, Arthur’s memories eventually flood back, the idiot has a chuckle at his expense, hugs him senseless and then cries for a bit when it hits him that Arthur's really with him again. After that they pick up from where they left off until Arthur's life in that time ends and it all starts again in his next life.

    Except this time, when Merlin's memory spell proves too strong to be lifted simply by their meeting, Arthur is forced to win Merlin over the hard way: with small-talk and dandelions.

    Summary

    As Youth Services Librarian, Merlin does his best to attract teen patrons to the Camelot Public Library, but so far only a few kids are interested. Then inspiration strikes, and with the help of his boss, Arthur, Merlin creates a treasure hunt that sends his kids into all sections of the historic library building. But The Quest isn’t the only treasure the library holds, and both Merlin and Arthur are soon drawn into a deeper mystery — one that will lead them to uncover a hidden secret from the library’s past, as well as their own true destiny.

    Summary

    Since Merlin and Cenred had split up, Arthur didn't think he'd ever have to see the long-haired, greasy, self-obsessed idiot ever again. But then Cenred announced he was getting married. And invited Merlin to the wedding.

    Merlin can't turn up by himself and look like a sad loser. And Arthur's his best friend. Best friends help each other, right? Well, they will if Morgana has anything to do with it.

    Summary

    Merlin has lived - though he'd be hard pressed to call it that lately - on the outskirts of Avalon for several lifetimes. It's sometime in the late 17th century when rumor reaches him of a man claiming to have nearly been snatched by the fair folk, and he knows he must investigate. What he finds on the Isle of Avalon is... miraculous to say the very least. Yet despite how long and how deeply he's hoped for such a thing, there's something about this wondrous event that isn't quite right. Merlin struggles to balance his better judgement against his selfish wants, but he knows fate is a fickle thing that won't be ignored.

    Summary

    As Prince of Camelot, Merlin Pendragon has always felt like he just can’t match up with the things expected of him. His needs are simple—his lifestyle is lavish. He wants to be a good son—his father ignores him. He was born with magic—magic is banned. One day, things will change, he was told. And after his twentieth birthday, they do. But Merlin is pretty sure it wasn't supposed to be like this. Faced with secrets of the past that have been long buried, Merlin doesn’t even want to think about his apparent “destiny” with Arthur, Son of Hunith (except for the part where he can’t really stop thinking about Arthur).

    Summary

    After completing his PhD, Merlin Emrys secured a coveted position in the labs at Pendragon Industries under the renowned Doctor Kilgarrah and his uncle Gaius. Uther Pendragon, CEO of P.I., being a good friend of Gaius' has his son Arthur share his flat with their newest employee to introduce him to the large city of Camelot, so very different to the small village of Ealdor where Merlin comes from. Their initial meeting isn't a good one, and their enforced living situation is a little strange for them both, but Merlin slots into Arthur's life perfectly, accepted into his circle of friends with ease, and both are able to force down their initial attraction to each other.

    But how long can they both ignore it when their living situation shows them, time and again, that neither man is who the other first thought them to be, time and again they see the nobility and strength they never suspected lay beneath the surface?

    (please read notes at end for further warnings)

    Summary

    For the prompt: Merlin kisses Arthur on the lips right after he says thank you. Merlin feels something pass from him to Arthur and then suddenly Arthur's body is suffused in bright light. Moments later Arthur awakens, his wound healed. Arthur doesn't realize Merlin kissed him, he just thinks he healed him somehow. At first Merlin believes he healed Arthur with his kiss, but soon he starts to suspect that what he passed to Arthur was, in fact, his immortality. Merlin worries Arthur will be angry when he finds out and deem this trespass unforgivable, an utter violation of his person, for who would want to live forever? And surely, if Arthur did want to live forever, he'd choose Gwen or even one of his knights with which to share that never-ending journey.
