Summary
‘What’s going on, Merlin? Why are you… me?’
Lancelot was lying, was his first, quite absurd thought. I do not look cute when I’m confused.«»«»«»
At first, it’s just an ‘inconvenience,’ and although Merlin and Lancelot can’t figure out a way to break the enchantment, at least their bond grows stronger than ever. The snag? It all somehow leads to a discussion about allowing magic in Camelot… and the stakes suddenly get very high.

Summary
In which Lancelot doesn't die and that changes... well, not that much, actually. Up until it does.
<< That's what the summary would be IF I HAD A COMPLETE FIC TO POST. These are sneak peaks posted as part of Mercelot Week 2023. The tags are only for what's in these chapters, not for the whole (future) fic.

Summary
‘And that’s where you’re wrong,’ he said between mouthfuls. ‘Wiglaf is not just coming to swear his allegiance; everyone is supposed to bring money with them to pay for the campaign against Cenred.’
He smiled as Merlin brightened at the news. Gold that was meant to finance death and suffering was their favourite kind to steal.«»«»«»
(After fleeing Camelot, Merlin and Lancelot make a life for themselves in Mercia, defending ordinary people against greedy and cruel noblemen. But when one of their heists goes very, very wrong, Lancelot will do anything to protect Merlin, even confess to being a sorcerer.)

Summary
Lancelot had bundled almost all of the fragments of himself into Merlin’s open hands, had stuffed their pockets with tales from his childhood and filled their mouth with sweet oaths. He had written powerful prose from the syllables crafted when his fingertips fell on their skin, sentences stringing together the blood in their veins, and Merlin had never asked him for anything more.
When their picnic date is interrupted by a rude kidnapping, Merlin and Lancelot get a little more alone time than they had bargained for.
Written for Mercelot Week 2023 (day 2: Beauty and the Beast - Forest/Kidnapping)

Summary
“I lost him,” Merlin says quietly, and bows his head as the tears prickle annoyingly at his lashes. One of them drops into his stew; it ripples for a moment, and he stares at the dish. He isn’t hungry, really.
“He would have wanted for you to be happy,” Gaius says, his voice kind and low. Merlin feels as though he’s a wounded animal, hiding away in the corner and shying away from all hands that want to help him—he can’t be helped. Lancelot was his friend, and Merlin couldn’t lose him, but he did.
Or: Lancelot walks through the veil and towards his death. So everyone thinks, at least, until Merlin finds him trapped in the world between life and death. And there's very little Merlin won't do to get him back.

Summary
“What if I don’t want to exist outside of you?” Lancelot said, no longer a question but something he was just telling Merlin in the soft, gentle voice he used when confiding his secrets to Merlin during the dead of night. But instead of nighttime surrounding them, daylight spilled through his window and lit up Lancelot’s face, and somehow this was far more intimate than sitting in darkness. “I have sworn myself to you—to always be by your side, no matter what may come or where you may go. So why would I want to exist outside of you?”
Or, Merlin is the crowned prince of Ealdor and Lancelot is his knight.
