    Summary

    'You will forget all that you hold dear,' the sorcerer had vowed before he attacked Arthur, leaving his patrol dead and Arthur achingly thankful that for once, Merlin hadn’t been with him. Well, and he is quite certain that he hasn’t forgotten anything.

    As it turns out, everyone else has; specifically about him, and that Camelot is supposed to have a crown prince.

    When Merlin stumbles across him by chance, Arthur should be relieved. And he would be, really—if he hadn’t just been stabbed, and found out that Merlin has magic while he was at it. That Merlin does not remember who he is, either.

    It all gets a lot more complicated from there on out as Arthur tries to keep his own secrets, deal with the revelations about Merlin, and find a way not only to restore Camelot's memories, but protect it against the threats gathering on the horizon, too.

    When it rains, it pours; sometimes, the aftermath might just be worth it.

    Summary

    What Arthur knows: Merlin, his clumsy and foolish servant, is actually quite smart. He’s also loyal, and brave, and in many ways the reason Arthur has so many good people in his life.

    The goal: Make Merlin realize how important he is to Arthur, no matter how stubborn he's clearly chosing to be about it.

    What Arthur does not know, yet: Merlin has magic. Also they're very slightly a little bit in love.

    It's going to take them a while to figure it all out. Meanwhile the knights have known for ages, Gwen figures it out pretty quick, and pretty much all of Camelot has also known ever since that weird peasant stumbled through the gates and challenged the Prince all those years ago.

    Summary

    "It's poisoned, Arthur."

    Arthur's eyebrow disappeared into his bangs, and he smirked that dangerous smirk that meant Merlin was in for it. "Oh, it's poisoned, is it?"

    "It is, I swear it," Merlin said, trying to convey how seriously he believed it by not breaking eye contact with the prince, pleading silently for belief.

    Summary

    'You ever say anything like that again and I swear you'll join her in exile forever.'

    *

    Arthur -the man with whom he shares a Destiny, the Other Side of his Coin- his dearest friend dares to threaten him because he speaks sense to him?!

    Well, if Arthur is so keen to ruin everything they built, to ruin their friendship and treat Merlin like crap, to continue being a Prat and lose everyone then Merlin will comply and leave him alone.

    'You're not banishing me, Arthur Pendragon,' he says in the empty room, long after Arthur has gone. 'I am leaving.'

    Summary

    It took another half an hour before Arthur started to stir. He grimaced slightly at how stiff he felt. He forced himself to sit upright. But a hand pushed him back down again.

    Summary

    Arthur doesn’t sleep. He feels heavy with guilt at the knowledge that he nearly killed his best friend. His only friend. He wishes he’d never found out about Merlin’s magic. Then this wouldn’t have happened.

    Or, no, that’s not true. He didn’t have to react that way, didn’t have to use cold iron. He could’ve at least spoken to Merlin first. But he didn’t, and now his only friend’s nearly dead. Every time he closes his eyes he sees Merlin’s terrified, accusing look.

    Arthur finds out about Merlin's magic and decides to keep him safe by stopping his magic. Unfortunately, thinking he's protecting him and actually doing so are completely different things.

    Summary

    Lancelot hesitates. Clearly he’s hit a significant nerve by hiding this injury, and it worries him. He doesn’t think he’s ever seen Merlin so worked up. “I’ve been cleaning it about twice a day,” he begins quietly, “and I tore my spare sheet to keep it covered. I haven’t used any herbs.” 

    Merlin stares down at the offending wound, lips pursed and forehead wrinkled in worry. “I have to drain it,” Merlin says grimly. “That pus has to come out.” He glances up at Lancelot, concern taking over the lingering anger in his eyes. “It will hurt.” 

    “I can bear it,” Lancelot assures. He pauses a moment, then continues. “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you. I meant to prevent work, but I only made more.” 

    “I don’t care about the work,” Merlin murmurs, returning to the gash and avoiding Lancelot’s apologetic gaze. “Lance…”

     

    Lancelot hides an injury, hoping to prevent more work for Merlin, who is swamped caring for four others. But the wound becomes infected, so he reluctantly reveals it to Merlin, expecting the angry response—but not the reason behind it.

    Summary

    Merlin does not stop. He doesn’t stop until there is nothing left of the tower but dust, nothing left of the island but sand. He doesn’t stop until the sky is black and the earth is scorched, and the rage in the centre of his chest has simmered down to a low flame.

    He takes in the destruction, takes in the changed landscape that has not been changed since he laid Arthur to rest here. It’s not peace that he feels, but it’s the closest he has got in a long time.


    Over a thousand years of waiting, and one split-second of slipped control. Merlin destroys the centre of the Sidhe's power, but destiny has never been this easy to fend off.

    Summary

    Everyone he trusted with his secret – Will, Freya, Balinor, Lancelot, and now Gaius – was gone. Arthur would never bring magic back to the land, and he would never let Merlin stand at his side the way Merlin had hoped he would. It was a cold awakening, years of baseless faith dashed against the fraying tapestry that destiny had made Merlin sew into his own skin, but an awakening nonetheless.

    Merlin is shaken out of his obsession with destiny and his blind faith in Arthur. Arthur just wishes he knew how to get his closest friend back.
