Summary
'The damage seemed to spread out from him like ripples on a pond, and it felt like a gift, like a blessed reprieve to find something that affected only him. The hunger was the one choice he could make that hurt no one, endangered no one, nudged no prophecies with clumsy elbows. Besides, having a secret was nothing new. The revelation was having one that didn’t matter.'
Merlin doesn’t eat properly, but he doesn't think it's a problem. Arthur disagrees.
(Scenes on a theme, before, during and after Arthur finds out.)

Summary
Merlin is not okay, and it's getting to him. He is not coping well, and feels he can't tell anyone. He can't hide it forever, though. Heed the tags.
ON HIATUS! This was my first fanfic, planning was nonexistent, and I'm not sure where I was going. This was also written before I knew what a hyperfixation was sooooo.... Yeah. I'd like to come back to it one day, but it's not gonna happen anytime soon. Sorry, people. ELo out ✌️❤️🌱

Summary
Merlin was designated female at birth, but he’d never felt this way. When he moved to Camelot, he decided it would be the perfect opportunity to change how other people saw him. In Camelot, where no-one knew who he’d been before, he made a fresh start. However, his past couldn’t stay behind forever...

Summary
Merlin has secrets.
Some of them more obvious than others.
But when his family comes to town, declaring him their royal daughter and Arthur's fiance.... things get a little out of his control.
Good thing Uther Pendragon isn't as much of a horrible king as you'd expect.Warning: Mentions of transphobia, and good Uther Pendragon lmao.
Also Merlin has some personal issues about periods.
Edit: Deadnaming-------------------
Edit: In the story, Uther referrs to Merlin as "being cursed at birth to be born in the wrong body". To clarify: Being trans is NOT a curse.
I did not reedit the part, despite being made aware of the problem, because the reaction still fits to Uther's character and it may still be true to some people.
You're valid and beautiful people and the only curse you're under is other people's ignorance and blatant hatred against you.
I apologize for my mistake.A.N.:// The title is ironic. Because that's what Gwaine calls Arthur at the beginning.... and the end. But you'll see.

Summary
Another kingdom’s visit to Camelot starts off well enough, but quickly devolves when all the women in the castle begin falling head over heels for Arthur. At first, it seems to only affect the ladies from the visiting party, but soon even Gwen can’t stop talking about Arthur’s pretty blond hair as she tries to bombard him with flowers at every training match. Merlin hasn’t any reason to worry—except that he does, because all three of his secrets have the potential to be unraveled in one fell swoop.

Summary
The night before an important diplomatic first meeting with Queen Annis of Caerleon, King Arthur Pendragon cannot sleep. Whilst attempting to though, he accidentally notices when Merlin sheds some garments while on watch, that allowed for a plain view of the patchwork of scars covering his body. Stunned, Arthur confronts Merlin, and the two find more than they both bargained for.

Summary
It was supposed to be a normal hunt. It was supposed to be a normal hunt.
It was supposed to be this: they get out of the castle so Arthur can be less of a prat, the knights have that weird banter that they always do where it’s ‘we can make fun of him but if anyone else tries, you will be eviscerated,’ and Merlin gets to enjoy being in the woods because it’s nice outside and he doesn’t actually have to do that much. They only tend to hunt small things like rabbits and birds anyway.
It was not supposed to be most of the knights having to stay behind for various reasons, including Gwaine who somehow got swept into helping Leon with a council thing.
It was not supposed to be just him, Arthur, and three random knights.
It was not supposed to end like this.
