Summary
To Merlin, there were two types of cops.
There were those who went into law enforcement as they were drawn to the promise of power, and then there were those who went into law enforcement as something, at some point, had gone terribly wrong in their lives.
And for the longest time, Merlin thought one Constable Pendragon fit snugly into the former.

Summary
“You-” Ygraine said, stepping up to point a finger in Uther’s face. “You are a liar and a murderer. The fact you think someone as sweet and caring as Vivienne is destined to marry you is a tragedy in itself, but if you expect me to hand over my brother’s rightful claim to Camelot’s throne-”
“My claim to Camelot’s throne,” Uther threw back, face growing more red as Arthur looked between his parents in utter bewilderment. Merlin didn’t blame him. He had envisioned Uther and Ygraine’s love story to be more… well, less based in war and battles.
Ygraine’s eyes narrowed as she grabbed a goblet of wine and threw it in Uther’s face. A few of the guards shifted, but Uther only raised a hand to pause them, spitting out the wine with furious eyes.
“You,” Ygraine said coldly. “Are unworthy to sit upon a stool, let alone a throne.”
From a few feet away, Balinor scoffed as he sipped from his own goblet. “I kind of like having her as a hostage, Uther. She livens up the place.”
Or
In a desperate attempt to save Arthur at Camlann, Merlin tries to reverse time. It works perhaps a tad too well.

Summary
“You’re a single male in a pub whose friends are trying to find him a girl to shag, and you’re not happy about it. When looking for an escape route, you ignore the myriad of other singletons here and head straight for me, the undeniably gorgeous and evidently rich man at the bar. You also haven’t heard of Morgana le Fay. You, my friend, are by all means a raving homosexual.”
Or, how Merlin found the worst anti-wingman in the world, but did manage to avoid the Arbonne representative.

Summary
Thou shalt not fuck your best mate’s dad.
And to Merlin’s credit, he doesn’t just bend Gwaine’s dad over the nearest surface and go at it with him the minute his son sets foot on the train bound for Edinburgh.
That would be far too simple, too easy to dismiss or write off as temporary madness, scratching a decades-long itch.
It’s more complicated than that.

Summary
An alternate universe where Charlie Spring's outing catapulted him into a life of violence and nicotine. Instead of being bullied, Charlie got really good at beating the shit out of homophobes with his friends. Nick Nelson, being the only other openly queer guy at an all-boys school, is completely and irrecoverably entranced (much to his dismay).
A collection of songfics involving BadBoy!Charlie and ReluctantlySmitten!Nick because I love them very much. Enjoy (please)!

Summary
After Morgana and Agravaine take the castle, Merlin convinces Arthur to run away for their own safety, to regroup and recover. Away from the castle, Arthur can't help but think Merlin's new dress suits her quite well while he dreams of starting over as a farmer in Ealdor with her by his side. Merlin, however, has other ideas. She has to get him back on the throne to complete his destiny.
Sometimes it takes a failure to learn a lesson. Or, Arthur learns he's been in love with Merlin the whole time.
A Sword and the Stone bastardization.

Summary
Maybe he’d witness her finally reach level 532 on Candy Crush and celebrate with her over a chocolate digestive. Maybe he’d carry on dipping biscuits into cups of tea and seeing whose disintegrated first for the next year. Maybe he’d share sly smiles and winks at Nick’s expense with the woman sporting a brown bob into the summer months, possibly even beyond.
A look into Charlie & Sarah's relationship over the years.

Summary
Merlin is lying about who he is (warlock, alpha) so he won't lose his head. Arthur is lying about who he is (omega) so he can make his father proud and inherit his crown. Even Morgana is lying and hoping that the lies will bring her happiness at last.
Is the joy of being seen worth the pain of unraveling the lies?

Summary
Arthur Du Bois, CEO of The RoundTable, is a stubborn, self-made man and comfortably well off. Yet, after a few encounters with a certain stranger, he unexpectedly lands himself a sugar daddy. Merlin is twelve years his senior, a modern gentleman, the last of the great Emryson family line, and unimaginably rich.
Coincidences bring them together and love blooms, but each holds a secret that may very well end their budding romance. What they don't know is that it both involves PD Corp’s CEO, Uther Pendragon.

It's High School Musical theme day. What if Nick wore the cheerleader outfit instead of the trusty basketball shorts?
The scene from "Nick and Charlie" but twisted- I heard the song "Dress" by Charlotte Sands, and this popped into my head, pretty much fully written. Enjoy!

Summary
“I’m sorry,” Merlin sighs the second they’re in the car, running a hand through his hair. “I guess I really didn’t give you chance to say anything and like I’m wasn’t trying to make you feel like I was fighting your battles for you, I just—I hate the way they were all talking about you like some kind of fucking emotionless villain or-”
Arthur cuts him off with a kiss. “Thank you,” He murmurs against Merlin’s lips, fingers cradling the underside of his jaw. “For coming to my defense. Apparently, you’re the only one that cares to.”

Summary
He saw Arthur burst from the forest, wide-eyed and pale-faced. Sweat plastered his hair to his forehead, and fear locked his expression in its clutches. One hand stretched out as if to grab him. So near and yet so far.
The moment fled. Gravity won, and there wasn't even time for Merlin to cry out as the bandit's weight dragged him over the cliff and into the stormy waters below.
****
When Merlin is hurt during a bandit attack, Arthur finds himself torn between the longings of his heart and his duties to the crown.

Summary
Ziva wonders about this Merlin Emrys, pale and thin as a waif, a schoolteacher from suburbia yet as much a soldier as she’s ever seen, with nerves of absolute steel and something unnameable in his eyes that feels older than them all.
Then Tony speaks—
“Well Merlin, perhaps it would interest you more to know that Captain Pendragon has been missing for forty-eight hours.”
—and his calm, quiet strength crumbles right before her eyes.
