    Summary

    The knights of Camelot would do anything for Camelot but most importantly they'd do everything for Arthur, their one true King. They would not hesitate to do anything he tells them to.

    Even now, they all wait for him to give his instructions as the druid’s words sink in.

    For the sealed tomb to be unlocked, it requires the defiling of an innocence.

    More specifically, a defiling of somebody innocent. A virgin’s first time is needed as a sacrifice.

    The tomb is enchanted, and within lies the one object that can stop Camelot from a monster of a certain doom.

    -OR-
    When the Knights go in search of something to save Camelot, they are told that the only way to do so is to sacrifice a virgin.

    None of the knights are; until of course, a certain non-knight manservant pipes up.

    Summary

    When two nobles arrive in Camelot, everything seems normal. However, Merlin quickly finds out they are not who they say they are and assumes they have come to assassinate the king (or his prince). Can he and Arthur stop them before they accomplish their true goal? More importantly, can they stay in one piece long enough to do so?

    Summary

    “My lord” and “my love” are really very similar sounding phrases, and anyone could make the mistake of mixing them up. However, of course, Arthur would never ever let Merlin live it down.

    Whether Merlin’s lord or his love, at the end of the day, first and foremost; Arthur Pendragon is a giant Prat.

    Summary

    Merlin had failed. Despite all his efforts, Arthur had ended up dead in his arms on the shores of Avalon, so close to salvation. Surely, this could not be how their shared destiny was supposed to end? No, it was all Merlin’s fault—he had made all the wrong choices, misinterpreting prophecy after prophecy. If only he could go back and try again, now that he knew better, maybe he could right his wrongs. Maybe he— Oh. Maybe he could go back…

    Ignoring Kilgharrah’s protests about the impossibility of what he aimed to do, Merlin let all his power loose, becoming one with the fabric of the world and the magic he was born of. After following the bond he shared with Arthur through the winding paths of time, he finally emerged a decade into the past, having successfully seized a second chance to get this whole destiny thing right. Unfortunately, he would have to win Arthur’s trust all over again, seeing as Merlin was alone in remembering anything of the future he was hoping to change. Or…was he?

    Summary

    “I am your Arthur, am I not?” Arthur pleaded frantically, not above begging anymore. As prince, as king, there was not a day when people didn't remind him that he was Camelot's. But as a man? As Arthur?

    He was always and forever Merlin's.

    “Show me that my choices matter, Merlin. Show me that they are worth anything to you.”

    Π∆

    diamond of the day fix-it, with a secret that only Arthur Pendragon knows.

    Summary

    + 1 Time Someone Saw Exactly Who He Was

    Everyone knows Camelot has an all-powerful Court Sorcerer. Not everyone knows who it is, though.
    And when they run into humble, bumbling Merlin... well, let's just say there are misunderstandings all around.

    Summary

    Arthur watched, unable to fully comprehend the events that had seemingly just crashed and burned in front of him rather than calmly unfold. He turned to look at the other knights who only shrugged as Mordred sank lower into his seat, lips pressed into a pout as he picked at his food.

    “I…” He started and paused, taking a moment to gather his thoughts “Why do you want Merlin to like you so badly?” He finally sighed. Mordred stopped playing with his food, glancing up before looking at the door the servant in question had exited through

    “Because he’s Merlin.” He said as if that provided any sort of answer.

    Arthur didn’t deserve this. He did his best to be a good person. Maybe this was some kind of divine intervention saying he needed to up his charity game. He needed to give the lower town a bigger tax break or something. Perhaps ride out and save three more damsels than usual.

    "He has a point," Gwaine piped up as he inhaled another mead "He is Merlin."

    Or
     
    Merlin hates Mordred and Mordred is determined to put an end to that. Arthur is convinced that this child is after his man.

    Summary

    Arthur is away. Merlin deals with some petitions, runs some errands, and misses him terribly. Sure, Arthur is due back this evening, but isn't that too far away?

    (“I’m just peeved,” Merlin admits.

    “Because Arthur’s gone?”

    “Not at all! I’m the Court Sorcerer of Camelot! I have a very important position completely independent of the King. I don’t track his comings and goings like a maiden. I stand on my own,” Merlin insists. Gwen crosses her arms and gives him a look that says, clearly, I don’t believe a word you’re saying.

    “Fine,” Merlin huffs. “Yes, I miss His Royal Prattiness.”)

    Summary

    "You seemed as if you were hiding something during Father's interrogation," Arthur remarked quietly, fingers gently prodding at a bruise.

    Merlin didnt open his mouth, eyes focused on a spot above Arthur's head. "Merlin, did you manage to lie to Father about something?"

    Merlin swallowed, the compulsion pushing at him. "Technically, I didn't say a lie," he said carefully and Arthur paused, frowning at him.

    "What do you mean technically?" He demanded.

    Summary

    When Arthur decides a truce between Camelot and the Druids is long overdue, he must meet druid king Emrys.
    Merlin, frantically trying to keep his alter ego hidden, must disguise himself and get the treaty over and done with before Arthur puts two and two together.
    Except.. He never expected Arthur to be so heavily drawn to Emrys. Merlin almost doesn't mind it.
    In fact, Merlin almost wants to play along...But how long can he keep it up for?

    OR:
    Three days of flirting with the king. In the name of magic, that doesn't sound quite so bad. What could go wrong?

    Summary

    "Your mother made me make my own pie with her yesterday." He said, sitting up to glare. "What is it with your family? Why do none of you respect nobles?" He said and Merlin dropped the plate of food he was carrying. "...I hate you." He sighed, staring at his food bouncing on the ground with a loud clatter. "I should hire your mother as my servant. She wouldn't drop my food." He added with a fierce nod.

    "My mother is here?" He asked and Arthur paused.

    "You haven’t seen her?"

    "No. Fuck. It’s finally happening." He whispered. Arthur stared, absolutely baffled. "She’s come to kill me." He explained and dashed towards the door to peer outside.

    "What?" Arthur snorted. "Merlin. Your mother can be very firm, but she’s not the killing type. She is too softhearted for such things." He said and Merlin slammed the door shut, leaning against the wood as if barricading it.

    "If you're not careful you'll be next."

    Or

    Hunith occasionally visits Camelot. Arthur thinks she’s wonderful...Sometimes.

      —Algún idioma nórdico antiguo —dijo Hunith, y volvió a estirar la mano para arreglarse las mangas. Arthur tuvo que reprimir una risita al verla morderse el labio, con la nariz arrugada en fingida concentración. Era la misma expresión que ponía Merlín cuando estaba distraído. —Siempre hace lo mismo. Pensé que entregarle a Merlín evitaría que me enviara a todas partes, pero luego lo reclamaste —murmuró ella, y Lancelot se animó, ya que estaba ayudando a Leon a guardar algunas armas.

      —¿Merlín? —preguntó el caballero, alzando las cejas mientras se giraba para observarla con más detenimiento—. ¿Conoces a Merlín?

      Hunith se giró para mirar al resto de los caballeros con ojos curiosos antes de esbozar una sonrisa tímida.

      —Muy bien, la verdad. ¿Conoces a Merlín? —preguntó, apartándose un mechón de pelo de la cara. Arthur la vio enderezar los hombros y apartar las manos de él ahora que tenía la atención de los demás.

      "Hunith, please," Arthur said, inhaling sharply as he looked away. "Don't make me cry. The wedding hasn't even started yet."

      "You're supposed to cry on your wedding day," She threw back, still sniffling from her own tears. "Anyways... I know today is the day I get to officially make you my son, but I do want you to know that from the day I met you I already considered you as such." Hunith continued as she reached forward to grab his hand. For the love of God.

      "I am ordering you to cease saying these things to me immediately. I will not be a sniveling mess when I walk out there." He managed, trying to keep his voice as sharp as possible. Hunith only smiled and gave a small nod before squeezing his hand. Arthur was about to outlaw that as well when Merlin came around the corner.

    Summary

    "This merits something quite special!", the king intoned. Merlin had a bad feeling about this.
    "You shall be rewarded a position in the royal household."
    "But I already have a position in the royal household!"


    This is the story of how Merlin did not get 'rewarded' by becoming Arthur's dogsbody and became an actual physician instead. Will destiny still find a way to unite the two to usher in the Golden Age they always promised us?
    Let's find out, shall we?

    Summary

    "Was there... was there truly a need for you to kiss me, Merlin?"
    "You were drowning, Arthur. Believe me, kissing a stubborn, ungrateful royal idiot was not on my itinerary today."

    One is an Ezaki, a prince searching for the Lake of Avalon to tear down the walls between their worlds. The other is a sorcerer, risking everything to seal the sword forever within its hidden waters.

    Beginning in Constantinople, the heart of the Eastern Roman Empire, and stretching deep into the Sassanid Empire to the ancient city of Gundeshapur—this is a journey set in 540 AD, where real historical events interweave with a high-stakes "Enemies to Lovers" romance.

    Long ago, as humans and Ezakis faced mutual destruction, their kings knelt before the sacred sword in the Lake of Avalon. A history written in blood was sealed with peace, and the Khazar Era began.

    Until Uther Pendragon rose to power and turned that peace to ash. Desperate, humanity turned back to Avalon. The lake's magic raised a colossal, insurmountable wall between the two realms. The magic was never to be broken; the gate, never opened. Yet, on the day the world tore in two, a power was born to change everything—Merlin.
