    Destiny cannot be stopped. Lancelot dies at the veil, and his sacrifice saves Camelot. His return may doom them all, but maybe not.

    Summary

    He stares up, confused why this one is denying his nature. He tilts his head, “Are you not a god?”

    Merlin blinks, and then a moment later is doubled over with laughter, until he has to sit down with him on the grass and clutch his side, nearly crying. “Me?” He sputters, “Oh, tell that to Arthur, he’d love that.” He giggles again, grinning as if they’re sharing some fond joke.

    Lancelot stares, then shakes his head. A trickster god, perhaps? But no, that light… it could only come from the highest of sources, not a simple spirit or fae.

    “What makes you think I’m a god anyways?”

    “You look human, but here,” he motions to the center of his own chest, “there is something else. Something more. It is small, but dense and bright beyond what my eyes could register. Gold or white or lightning-blue, trapped in tight vibrations. It is a god’s light, and pure.”

    Merlin swallows, looking away as he digests this, “I…that’s not me. You must be mistaken, my friend. My mother was a mortal woman and I bleed like any other.”

    Summary

    Merlin was prepared to sacrifice almost anything to close the gate that Morgana had opened and save Camelot from the Dorocha. Almost.

    Turns out that 'almost' is actually pretty important.

    4x02 'The Darkest Hour' fix-it.

    Summary

    As a druid, Mordred had been raised on the stories of the old gods, of their lord Emrys and how his coming would mean freedom for their people. What he had trouble with was seeing Merlin -clumsy, gangly, grinning Merlin- as anything more than a faltering servant. That is, until Emrys shows him otherwise.

    Basically Merlin is a god and it’s time Mordred accepted this.

    Summary

    In "The Darkest Hour", Gaius wasn't sure what it will take to repair the tear in the veil between worlds (blood sacrifice was merely a guess) and Kilgharrah insisted that "the spirit world demands no sacrifice", that "it is the demands of the Cailleach".

    What if... the Cailleach asked for something other than blood sacrifice? What if she asked for the two halves to be made whole instead?

    Summary

    Arthur is determined to sacrifice himself, Merlin is determined to take Arthur’s place, Lancelot is determined to take Merlin’s place, and Gwaine disagrees with all of the above.

    Or what should have happened in 4x02 The Darkest Hour. One possible version at least.

    Summary

    Sage and Faolan had been through Ragnarok and back (no literally-it was a shit show). They've been together, broken up, fought with and against each other, and eventually found their way back to each other. Now married for three years, they were happy. Until the unexpected happens.

    Sage Hansen is my own Norse Demigod OC, a daughter of Sif, and a character developed for the now retired Camp Avalon Discord Server, a Camp Half Blood inspired RPG for Norse and Celtic Demigods. I have explicit permission from the creator of Faolan and Mills to use them in this story. This takes place about 7 years after the canon events of the server. All credits to the server and the camp itself go to Laney and Salem/Ko (many thanks to these lovely humans for all the love they put into the server)

    Summary

    What if gwaine knew about Merlin's magic and wasn't knocked out at the veil. What if Merlin and Lancelot were a little closer than we are lead to believe. And what if Merlin didn't bottle up all his feelings and just kinda let them all out - quite violently let them out.

    Summary

    The Dorocha was only the beginning.

    ***

    Merlin was supposed to be riding back to Camelot with Lancelot. Merlin was supposed to be safe. Which is why Arthur can't quite comprehend it when Merlin appears at the Isle of the Blessed just as Arthur is readying himself for sacrifice, blasts Arthur out of the way, and walks through the veil between the worlds.

    Summary

    “The Gods have deemed you worthy of returning to the land of the living, Sir Lancelot.” He was sure he could hear bitterness in her words.
    “Why?”
    “Emrys needs you. He is their vessel, and he is drowning under his burden. He will fail without counsel. The Gods have decreed it shall be you who saves him.”

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Lancelot is sent back to Camelot to share Merlin's burden. Arthur thinks they're together romantically and gets jealous. A magic reveal turns their worlds upside down, and Lancelot is left to pick up the pieces. With Gwaine's help of course.

    Canon divergence after the Lamia (4x08) but before Lancelot du Lac (4x09)

     

    OR: the Lancelot return and Mercelot friendship we all deserved.

    UPDATE: This used to be called Lancelot's Return, but I've renamed it. If you were looking for that fic, here it is.

    Summary

    I wrote a follow up where Merlin gets to try again and keep his people this time! Because the first one was so depressing.

    This is also dark though, fair warning.
