Summary
It was an act of appalling, ghastly cruelty that, had Arthur not been so horribly in love with him, he might never have noticed Merlin was a sorcerer.

Summary
Merlin is not a sorcerer.
He is magic itself—older than language, older than the stars, shaped into mortal form and bound by fate to serve the one king who might unite Albion. To Arthur, he is only a manservant. A friend. An annoyance, perhaps. But beneath the clumsy smiles and rolled eyes, something...old stirs.
And now, the world is screaming. Magic—his magic—howls with the weight of a coming storm. Visions of war. A crown shattered. Camelot in flames. Every time Merlin listens to the bones of the earth, he loses a little more of himself. Every time he holds his silence, the voices grow louder. Until at last, they begin to break him.
He can no longer keep the truth buried. Arthur must know what walks beside him. What protects him. What might one day destroy him. Because something is coming. And it will fall here. And kill them all.

Summary
After the disastrous end of his betrothal to Gwen and the regret of his offer to Princess Mithian, Arthur swears off finding a wife until he's ready to wed. When Merlin offers himself to Arthur as bedmate, Arthur suggests they hand-fast in secret for a single year of mutual pleasure without obligation. As their year together unfolds, and secrets and betrayals unravel around them, Arthur and Merlin learn there is no such thing as uncomplicated pleasure. Everything they thought they knew can change in the span of a single year.

Summary
In the wake of the dragon's escape, Morgana is missing and Uther is running Arthur and his knights ragged with fruitless searching. As the hunt continues, Merlin must come to terms with his growing feelings for Arthur, his discomfort at the way Arthur throws himself into danger in order to prove himself to his father, and his suspicion that Morgause may not be as evil as he'd once thought. Just as things begin to fall into place, a revelation about Gwen's past throws the court into turmoil, causing Uther's rage to spiral out of control. Finally, prompted by the return of Mordred, Merlin and Arthur must choose between Uther's Camelot and the people they love, perhaps including each other.

Summary
When Guinevere finds that she is unable to bear Arthur a child, Merlin offers her the perfect solution: an ancient spell which can create new life out of love, if that love is pure and powerful enough. But after the ritual, it becomes increasingly obvious that while Gwen has indeed become pregnant, the child she carries might not have been created from the love between Arthur and his wife - but rather from the love between Arthur and his Court Sorcerer. Merlin/Arthur romance.

Summary
A hand grasped his arm, sending a brief thrill down Merlin's nerves as he was forced around to face the person behind him. Armour gleamed in the firelight: supple chainmail glinted, and the solid iron of a pauldron curved lovingly over one broad shoulder. The length of a sword blade separated them. The point hovered, steady and sure, over Merlin's heart, braced to run him through, but he did not care about any of that. He was too busy drinking in the sight of the man before him.
He could never forget him, no matter how many centuries had passed.
'Arthur?'
When Merlin ultimately fails in his destiny, the fading remnants of magic that linger in the modern world fling him not just back in time, but sideways as well. He ends up in a Camelot where all his friends are alive, well and aware of his magic.
He ends up in a Camelot where his alternate self died almost a year ago.
Can he, Arthur and their friends still forge the golden age he was once promised, or will grief and suspicion tear them apart?

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?

Requiem of a Forgotten Prince by kairennart (Personaje), queerofthedagger

Summary
'You will forget all that you hold dear,' the sorcerer had vowed before he attacked Arthur, leaving his patrol dead and Arthur achingly thankful that for once, Merlin hadn’t been with him. Well, and he is quite certain that he hasn’t forgotten anything.
As it turns out, everyone else has; specifically about him, and that Camelot is supposed to have a crown prince.
When Merlin stumbles across him by chance, Arthur should be relieved. And he would be, really—if he hadn’t just been stabbed, and found out that Merlin has magic while he was at it. That Merlin does not remember who he is, either.
It all gets a lot more complicated from there on out as Arthur tries to keep his own secrets, deal with the revelations about Merlin, and find a way not only to restore Camelot's memories, but protect it against the threats gathering on the horizon, too.
When it rains, it pours; sometimes, the aftermath might just be worth it.

Summary
“This isn’t about you seeing the error of your ways. If you wanted to save my timeline so badly you’d have let me freeze to death. This is about me. You just want to make one version of reality where you don’t kill me.” Viktor tilts his head, an acknowledging nod. The hunger has not left his expression, he watches Jayce with the love of a vulture for a deer’s final, rattling breath. “That’s not something you can take back. You did it, Viktor. He loved you and you killed him and now you want me to go back and do the same so you don’t have to bear it.”
Viktor makes a face, then, an almost-expression that Jayce takes a moment to clock because it’s so out of left field, so foreign in its construction. Amusement. Viktor is smirking, a odd facsimile of the way he did in his 20s when he was trying not to laugh. It has been years since Jayce has seen him laugh. He gets the impression that this version of Viktor has forgotten how.
“All about you, mhm? Still quite the egotist, I see.”OR:
It has been several months since Jayce Talis had any human contact. It has been maybe 20 years since Viktor has. They take advantage of the opportunity. 8k words of robot porn.Bookmarked by ohallows

Summary
Viktor never escapes the Undercity. He never finds his way to Piltover's Academy. He never takes a job with Heimerdinger and dreams of bigger things. Instead, after ten years as Singed's apprentice, he finds two lost children on the worst night of their lives and gives them a home. In many ways, this changes everything. In others, it changes nothing at all.
“No. You’re going to do something much worse than killing Silco,” Viktor tells Benzo’s ward. “He wants you dead. Out of his path, as he continues to forge forward. Instead, you’re going to survive.”
Viktor offers the boy his hand. “We are obstacles. All three of us. We’ll take care of each other."
I’ll keep him alive. I’ll keep them both alive, he offers Benzo’s ghost. Vander’s, too. A meager attempt at atonement, perhaps, but it's the last thing he has left to give.- Language:

Summary
The green house was beautiful. A profound sense of peace washed over Jayce, the relentless onslaught on his mind quieting for the first time since he left that terrifying universe.
And then he saw Viktor.
His hair had grown long, brushing his shoulders. His face was serene, lips curved into the faintest, most enigmatic of smiles.
He was beautiful. More than beautiful - he was transcendent.And yet, this wasn't Viktor. Not his Viktor. His Viktor had been warm and real and human. Not a God.
