Summary
Now that he's been crowned King of Camelot, Arthur's advisers are pushing him to find a wife and secure the future of the kingdom by fathering an heir. But Arthur already has a consort in mind—namely, Merlin, who already does so much for him and Camelot that Arthur can imagine no one better suited to rule by his side. The only problem is convincing Merlin of this fact, since he remains stubbornly oblivious to all of Arthur's attempts to woo him...

He shook his head with quick regret, "no magic."
"Helped last night."
"What?"
"Y'know," Merlin said, "with the dice."

Arthur blinked, not catching on. "You what now?"
Or

“Arthur’s going to have our heads if he realizes we brought her back,” he hummed, sounding amused at the idea. “You’re sure she’s stopped with the whole, burning holes through doors to get to you thing?”

Or

"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.

Summary
Merlin was technically banished, but everybody knew he wasn’t really gone. Sometimes, the cooks would leave out spare food only to find their shelves fully restocked the next day. Gwaine would leave out plans to prank the other knights and they would be carried out within the hour. Arthur would turn a blind eye to the way familiar blue eyes twinkled at him from underneath the hood of a cloak, or ignore the whispers that said the stocks were haunted.
OR
Merlin is basically the poltergeist of Camelot and everyone just kind of accepts it until magic is legal.
