Summary
"Well, well, we finally caught you, the great sorcerer Ambrose. My people will no longer have to live in fear-" Uther gloated, his words like a sword dragging on stone floors. Annoying. Merlin, thoroughly disguised, would have pinched between his eyes if not for the noble effort of the two inept guards holding his arms.
“Caught me? Okay, show of hands, who actually thinks I'm stuck right now?”
Aka
In which Merlin tells magic, time, his morals, and his own sanity to sod off so he can go back in time and save his man, oh, and also ditch his identity so he can be as unhinged as he needs to be.

Summary
It had actually been a long time since Hiccup had thought about how he would die.
When he was young, every sunrise was another gamble to see if he would get himself eaten by a dragon or somehow manage to fall off one of Berk’s many cliffs.
Perhaps Winter would finally choose to break his wiry body with illness or he would catch an unfortunate stray battle axe.
Yet here he was, 21, about to die in the wrong place (not a bad age to reach in the Archipelago when you’re Hiccup Haddock, let's be honest).But that was the thing wasn’t it? Hiccup made plenty of marks all in the wrong places.
What if one of those marks was in the future? On one unsuspecting spirit’s affections?

Summary
Three years into King Arthur’s reign, magic users across Camelot are growing restless. Though no more executions have taken place since Arthur made peace with the Druids, sorcery is still punishable by death. Frustrated and increasingly impatient, a group of rogue sorcerers decides to take matters into their own hand, kidnapping Merlin right from under Arthur's nose.
Thus begins a long journey, one where Arthur unearths some hidden truths about everything he thought he knew and Merlin's loyalty is put to the test.

Summary
Merlin is well aware that a price has to be paid to ensure that magic is freed. He's also aware of the spear sticking out of his side and Uther charging towards him. Is now the time to pay that price? AU version of Death Song of Uther Pendragon. Part 1 in my Magic Reigns Free Series. This work is a rewrite of a story I wrote years ago on FFN.
SNEAK PEAK: "He has magic and must die," Uther insisted. "If he lives, he will destroy the kingdom I have worked so hard for."
"No," Merlin weakly squeaked.
Arthur glanced over at Merlin. He had heard what his father had said but paid it no mind. Merlin needed to be rescued right now. He could not waste time arguing with the ghost of his father. If he did, Merlin would surely die.
"You had your turn. It's my kingdom now," Arthur stated as he put the horn to his lips and blew.
As soon as his father was gone, Arthur rushed to his manservant's side and got him down as quickly as possible. He laid his body on the floor and yelled for anyone who could possibly hear him as he put pressure on Merlin's wound. Merlin howled in pain before losing consciousness altogether.

Summary
It started after the death of Uther, the possessiveness.
Maybe it’d always been there to some degree. Merlin blamed it on their destiny, the unbreakable umbilical cord that tied them together even when they physically existed on opposite ends of the kingdom.
After Uther’s death, though, the cord tightened on Arthur’s end and Merlin went willingly.

Summary
“My lord?” Gaius called.
Arthur swallowed hard before turning around.
“Yes?” he replied, his voice strangely neutral, far too clear for someone who felt as though his chest were being crushed from the inside.
“I need you to tell me in detail what happened” the physician said. The effort to remain professional was obvious, to keep from showing the despair that must have been consuming him at the sight of his nephew in such a state.
“There’s nothing to tell” Arthur said far too quickly, as though he wanted to end the matter before it gained any weight. “He was completely normal one second, and the next he was groaning in pain, with his eyes…” he made a vague gesture with his hand, unable to finish. Giving it shape would make it real, and he was not sure he could bear it. What difference did it make now? He’s dead, a cruel part of his mind whispered. “Then his eyes rolled back and he… fainted.”
⸻
Or: where Merlin’s soul travels back in time while fighting in the midst of the Second World War, and, in the process, his body in Camelot dies for a few minutes, sending Arthur Pendragon to the verge of fainting.

Summary
Six months after Camlann, Arthur is alive, magic is legal, and Camelot needs a Court Sorcerer.
Arthur’s solution is the first Mage Tournament of Camelot, intended to celebrate Albion’s newly legal magic while quietly identifying sorcerers powerful enough to protect a kingdom.
Merlin enters because it sounds fun.
Arthur expects him to do reasonably well. The knights expect plenty of entertainment. The Druids know exactly who has just entered a tournament for battle sorcerers and are trying very hard not to laugh.
Then the tournament begins, and Arthur realizes that after ten years at Merlin’s side, he may not have the faintest idea what Merlin is capable of.

Summary
Arthur is the perfect flatmate -- he pays his rent on time, works so much that he’s not even home half the time, and is totally okay with Merlin’s magic. Best of all, Merlin is pretty sure that Arthur has a crush on him -- that is, until he stumbles across a list of things that Arthut hates about him.
Merlin is upset of course, but he pushes aside his feelings to focus on being a better roommate so that Arthur will renew their lease for another year. Most of the things on the list aren’t that hard to correct … so how come Arthur seems to get more and more annoyed as Merlin improves his behaviour?
