    Summary

    He couldn’t take it anymore.

    He had to say something. He couldn’t keep silent anymore.

    Day in, day out…

    The constant borderline scandalous looks, the barely concealed innuendos, the incredibly unsubtle touches, all of it!
    He was going to lose his mind.

    How could two people be so blind?!

    So, that’s what led him to the tavern that night, across from Gwaine, a hint of regret tugging at his mind that he steadfastly ignored.

    “Okay… How do we get them together?”

    Summary

    Kilgharrah’s time has come. No matter how old he is, Merlin will always believe it’s too soon. They had so much to discuss, to do, dragons to bring back, Aithusa to raise…

    He knew Kilgharrah had led him wrong multiple times, driven by his own desires, bit that did not mean he cared any less for the dragon, and to watch him die…

    Merlin never thought he’d live to see the day.

    OR

    Merlin had been quiet recently. Sad.

    Arthur was growing increasingly worried about him, though he wouldn’t admit it aloud. He made no sarcastic jokes, no fond insults, he was polite and subservient, and he didn’t drop a single plate of food in three days!

    If only he could get the damn warlock to speak to him.

    UNFINISHED - Possibly abandoned

    It started with Leon's horse getting sick.
    How the fuck that created this sequence of events, no one knows.

    Summary

    Sometimes Merlin's life feels like someone's idea of a hilarious joke. A run in with a fertility god and the wrong sort of berries does not improve his situation. But if he can bring himself to trust Arthur, maybe everything will work out after all.

    Summary

    Arthur just stares at him. “Merlin, I am your King, how did you expect me to react? I thought it would be clear to you that I would need some space to process everything-”

    “Magic is evil,” Merlin murmurs, cutting him off. His interruption is completely unwarranted, which startles Arthur. “That’s what you said. Right?” He lets out a trembling breath.

     

    or,,, Merlin isn't coping well. Arthur tries to help.

    "Where did you get that?" Arthur asked, but he already knew the answer.

    "Gwen."

    "...and the horse?"

    "Gwen."

    "What about the-"

    "Gwen." Merlin interrupted. Arthur nodded. At this point, he wasn't sure why he even bothered to ask. He was pretty certain his wife was going to knight Merlin any day now. He looked Merlin up and down for a few moments before accepting it all with a sigh.

    "As long as you get my armor to me tomorrow...I don't care." He finally said, turning away. Merlin cleared his throat.

    "Gwen gave me tomorrow off."

    "For the love of God."

    Or

    I hate that Gwen and Merlin's friendship kind of withered away in the later seasons so here's a oneshot about her and Merlin abusing her new royal powers because that's what happens when your best friend becomes queen.

    What if he hadn’t?

    Summary

    Merlin dashes fiercely at the tears that have started to trickle down his face, and waits. Because if Arthur wants to take him back to Camelot as a prisoner, to a cold cell and death in the grey morning – if that is what Arthur wants, Merlin will let him, because he can’t deny Arthur anything.

    And Arthur takes Merlin’s shoulders in a hard, almost bruising grip, and he’s breathing hard, and Merlin’s crying messily, because he just can’t seem to stop and he’s more scared than he’s ever been in his life.

    Summary

    Merlin never takes his tunic off.

    “Are you- Are you serious?”
    “Yes,” Merlin said with no hesitation. He even pushed off his wall and made towards the door. “I’ll go to him now, shall I?”
    Arthur thrust out an arm to stop him in his tracks. The room was so small he did not have to go far. “You would let my father see you bare chested before me?”

    Arthur finds out why.

    Summary

    Merlin knows his friends were enchanted, and he's more than pleased to have them back to normal. But he might need a little while to recover from the Lamia's effects on them.

    Basically just a light missing scene from the end of "Lamia" (4x08) to give us some closure and apologies.
