Summary
When Arthur is called for judgement by a mysterious magical entity he must decide once and for all who he is. An extension of his father? Or a man brave enough to forge his own legacy.
When Mordred is forced to confront a part of his past he thought he'd left behind, he must decide where his loyalties truly lie.
Aka, I've always hated "The Disir" and "The Drawing of the Dark", so here's my kind-of fix-it.

Summary
After the fire in the ward's room, Merlin chooses to ignore Gaius's warnings and help Morgana. The witch accepts Merlin's help, not knowing the true extent of the servant's power or his secret identity.
One night, however, the sorceress receives a prophecy. A prophecy that changes the course of everyone's life, but it's not like Merlin hadn't changed that already. The dragonlord was never supposed to help Morgana; he had strayed from his way, and now, The Gods were furious. They didn't, however, punish him; no, they just changed his destiny to one he can't escape.
Arthur finds out far too much in one night, leaving him to wonder if his friend hides more than what's already been exposed.

Maybe smut??? Idk, nothing is for certain.

Summary
There’s something inexplicable about locking eyes with someone who knows they are about to die. And not just die a normal humane death, but a violent, gruesome death that it would be a mercy to be killed fast.
He’s not fast enough, not strong enough, not skilled enough. -

Summary
~They barely managed to close the door before Arthur pinned him against it. “Took you long enough,” Merlin breathes as his mate kisses down his neck and tugs off his neckerchief.
“Good things are worth the wait,” he retorts, pulling off Merlin’s shirt before removing his own and tossing both to the side. “And I do love watching you squirm.”~Merlin's in heat.

Summary
Dark!fic AU
*Now with beautiful art by LightsAtTintagel!*
The Kingdom of Avalon has fallen. Arthur finds himself the reluctant keeper of the fallen enemy prince.
Destiny had somehow made a mistake.
***
"You don't have to, you know," Arthur said. "Not all the time."
"What?" came Merlin's clipped response from the corner after a moment.
Arthur turned around to face his captive. "Be this," he gestured at Merlin broadly. "Be defiant, brave...stoic...all the time. It's painful to watch."
Merlin did not answer. Arthur sighed.
"Just...just...when that door closes, when we reach the end of the day. Just allow yourself to relax for just a while." Arthur tried on a small smile, holding his palms up in a gesture of surrender. "I promise I won't tell anybody."

Summary
He remembers the laughter, the shove in the courtyard, the mud still clinging to his clothes when Arthur smiled and breathed, “I thought we’d lost you.”
Arthur was sunlight. Merlin was what came after.
And so he walks —
by the lake where Arthur vanished,
in a world that no longer knows his name.

Summary
To say Arthur was having a terrible, horrible, no-good, very bad day was putting it lightly. It started out with the pixie in the pantry, which sounded like one of Gwaine’s inane drinking songs but was in actuality an unmitigated disaster of flour, chaos, flying apples, and wasted pastries…
…
An unfortunate incident with a pixie leads to Arthur and Merlin swapping bodies for a day. When Merlin’s closely guarded secrets surface in the process, it’s up to Arthur to figure out how to proceed. Trust, love, protection, they’re all forms of the same thing, aren’t they? And what of secrets, burdens, and all the lies we keep to ourselves? This is a story about what would happen if we choose to pull off the veil and step, together, into the light.

Summary
Merlin slips into the chainmail, remembers how Arthur once helped him put on his gloves in Ealdor when they were trying to protect his village from being sieged. His magic tingles under his skin, recently recovered after the Crystal Caves. He wonders if wearing this armor, the king’s spare armor, if he could be disguised when using magic to stop the fighting before there are more casualties. Maybe he could even convince Morgana and Mordred that he’s Arthur, and distract them while Arthur leads Camelot to victory elsewhere on the battlefield.
A "Song of Achilles" x Merlin and Arthur fic.

Summary
“And next to petition…” droned the herald, looking down at his papers. “Welcome Lady Enid Kantor to speak to the court.”
Merlin yawned.
“The lady is here to offer her services…” – a confused look came upon his face – “to the King.”
A murmur rose in among the nobles as a small older woman slowly made her way up the aisle to the throne.
Arthur raised an eyebrow. “You wish to offer me a service?”
“Yes, your majesty, I do.”
Whispers and frowns were interchanged among the nobles, but the Lady Kantor only smiled. “One could say I am an inspector of sorts.”Or: An inspector comes to Camelot to examine the court. Merlin thinks Arthur finally lost his mind.

Summary
Lady Enid managed two days in Camelot before the council composed a formal letter to Arthur questioning Lady Enid’s sanity, and by proxy, his own. [...]
Gwaine sat up and leaned in next to him on the grass, reading over Merlin’s shoulder. “See there, Lord Ellis claims she called him a toad.”
“She did not,” Merlin said and held up the two papers in front of him, “but I marked down the page. She said something about him ‘frogging around’ the issue and, ‘having no leg to stand on’, it was difficult to see how he could ‘jump to such conclusions’.”
Gwaine guffawed and laid down again, his armour clanking as he began to tug on the buckles. “So, she called him a legless toad.”
Merlin settled back against the tree. “I’m impressed Lord Ellis even caught it.”Or: When Arthur invited Lady Enid to inspect Camelot, Merlin thought Arthur lost his mind, but when he lets her stay to wreak further havoc in Camelot, unveiling secrets, upsetting status quos and campaining for a Merlin's own political advancement - be it by marriage or by cunning alone - Merlin is sure Arthur has gone insane for good.

Summary
“𝘈𝘳𝘵𝘩𝘶𝘳, 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘣𝘢𝘤𝘬!”
No… he had been in it.
“𝘔𝘦𝘳𝘭𝘪𝘯? 𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵?”
He had been in it. He was sure of that.
“𝘔𝘰𝘳𝘨𝘢𝘯𝘢, 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘮𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘢𝘯𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘥𝘦𝘧𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘮𝘦.”
And he had not been alone.
“𝘐 𝘥𝘰 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘦𝘧𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶, 𝘌𝘮𝘳𝘺𝘴-”
His hand flew up to his neck, almost by instinct. But there was nothing there.
What… what had happened in that hovel?

Summary
Merlin tułał się po świecie przez wiele lat, doskonale zdając sobie sprawę z tego, że Albion przepadł razem ze śmiercią Artura. W pewnym momencie nawet udało mu się z tym pogodzić. Ba, zaczął nawet powoli zapominać, kim był i kogo znał. Tak przynajmniej mu się wydawało do dnia, gdy na jego posterunku pojawił się pewien wybitnie oszołomiony blondyn.
