    Summary

    Lancelot looks over at his friend again—and he looks less like a bumbling servant here in the sun and more like a creature carved from the old magic itself—ethereal, sharp, and beautiful in a way Lancelot had never properly allowed himself to notice.

    The Knights' shaking breaths were hidden behind exhaustion of heavy labor.

    —or—

    Sooner or later everyone falls for Merlin’s charm.

    Summary

    “I said,” Merlin enunciates, rolling his eyes. He gets a knee over Arthur’s thigh, pressing it into the mattress and fixing the perch of his glasses. “What’s wrong with my glasses?”

    Arthur gapes at him, before dropping onto his pillow with a sigh as he stares up at the ceiling. What has this night come to? He was supposed to go over his report and then sleep. And then came Merlin, complaining about the fucking water pressure, dripping wet and smelling like that with his low slung pyjamas and utter lack of respect for Arthur’s sanity, taking over his mind and night. Arthur can’t have one second of peace.

    .

    Arthur notices Merlin smells nice. He then can’t stop noticing and nearly loses his mind about it.

    Summary

    To that woman at the shop, Merlin is going home to someone who loves him. The Merlin in her mind might spend the night eating cheap Chinese takeaway with Arthur, arms curled around each others’ shoulders while they watch a film. Merlin surprises him with a special Assam blend. Arthur hops in the shower with him and runs his fingers through his hair. They fall asleep together, and Arthur makes him truly atrocious eggs on toast in the morning, and Merlin gets to be loved back.

    Suddenly, Merlin wants to live in that world. He wants it so badly he feels sick.

     

    (Or: Merlin tells his coworkers that Arthur is his boyfriend. Predictably, it backfires).

    Summary

    A t’hy’la bond is a sacred, joyous thing. It is not a thing of accident, of mistake.

    When Jim and Spock are accidentally bound together during a first contact meeting with a telepathic species, Spock is consumed by the guilt of forcing Jim into a lifelong bond that cannot be broken.

    Jim, for his part, just wants to figure out if Spock likes him or not.
