Best of Merlin as by Me
Those are the finished Merlin fics I liked enough to bookmark. Have fun.
It goes without saying that the rest of a series is almost always worth a shot, and that the author of a fic you particularly liked might have bookmarks you might enjoy, as well as more works I didn't add.
Many works are only added as bookmarks. It doesn't mean I like them any less, it's just better for the author's peace of mind sometimes, I think?

Short picture of Merlin's and Arthur's relationship. Kinda gory when Merlin is patching Arthur up.

Pretty dark for not being a Dark fic, but insanely good. Holy wow. I am in awe. I also binged until hours past midnight two days in a row to finish this, so be warned.
