    Summary

    “So how did you get into acting then?” asked Merlin after some time. He eyed the expensive suit and raised an eyebrow, a smirk playing on his lips. Arthur tried not to get too distracted. “If I didn’t know better, I would have pegged you as a finance guy or something.”

    The only thoughts swirling inside Arthur’s head was how much he wanted to get pegged by Merlin but he valiantly answered the question. “My father owns a company but he, uh, he didn’t really accept the whole bi thing and kicked me out when I came out,” he said slightly uncomfortably. The expression on Merlin’s face immediately changed but before he could apologise, Arthur continued, this time a little less honestly. “I’ve had to find my own way ever since and that’s when I met Gwaine.”

    Truth be told, had he not pretended that it was just a phase, Arthur would have actually lived through that. As much as it pained him to deny his identity and pretend to be a stranger just to win his father’s approval, he appreciated the privileges he received.

    Or Arthur's here to get purely professional photos but after seeing just who his photographer is, his focus shifts slightly. Just slightly.

    Summary

    “Well, I was thinking -”, Arthur began, but Merlin interrupted him. As always.
    “YOU- thinking? Now I'm getting worried.”
    “My plans are always well thought through. Just so you know.”
    “I think we both know who of us does the thinking and what happens, when you leave me out of your plans.”

     

    Alternatively:
    Arthur makes a plan to get Percival and Gwaine together. His plan involved a fake relationship with none other than Merlin Emrys himself. His best friend.
    And crush, obviously. Yes, Arthur's plans are very well thought through.... as one can imagine

    Summary

    Every time there's an execution of a sorcerer, Merlin turns frosty towards Arthur for a few days, and Arthurs grown used to it over the years, so much so that he can tell when Merlin is being more distant than usual, and today is definitely one of those days.

    Summary

    “Do you understand me now, sire?” Merlin asked smugly, leaning in so close their lips were hovering over each other. “Or do I need to explain it more fully?”
    Arthur swallowed hard. “No,” he whispered back, glancing at Merlin's lips. “I think I understand now.”

    Summary

    Merlin looked around in dismay at the group of kids who couldn't have been more than seven years old surrounding him as everyone put on their skates — the children with their own, Merlin renting his from the facility — and started to head toward the ice. He supposed he should have actually read the fine print when he signed up for the class, and of course a beginner’s ice skating class would be mostly for children. There might have been one for adults, but Merlin hadn’t bothered looking, he just went straight for the one that was cheapest and geared toward beginners.

    Summary

    “Let me paint your nails.”

    “What?” Arthur stared at him as if Merlin had suddenly growled at him in Greek.

    “It’s something my mum and I used to do, when we were really sad and needed a reminder that there’s always a bit of color in the world.”

    Arthur's hurting after his break up with Mithian, so Merlin decides to paint Arthur's nails to cheer him up. Then Arthur keeps painting his nails, and maybe there's more happening under the surface than Merlin realizes.

    Summary

    He had known of course from his time with the druids those many years ago that Emrys would live as long as magic lived, but he did not imagine that meant he would be functionally immortal. And it came down to it that he quite missed the times he had once known, and the people he had called his family. He missed life before even the youngest of his friends had grown old and withered.
