    Summary

    It has been six months since both Merlin’s magic and his pregnancy were revealed, and six months since he was locked inside an opulent guest room turned prison cell. Arthur hasn’t been to visit him – not once – despite the fact that the child Merlin is carrying is his, and Merlin still doesn’t know whether an execution awaits him on the other side of his pregnancy. If he even survives it, that is. Because it has also been six months since Merlin’s magic was locked away by iron cuffs, and the strain is making him weaker by the day.

    Tired of waiting and deciding that he can’t allow an innocent baby to grow up in a Camelot that hates magic, Merlin strikes a deal with Agravaine that will ensure the safety of his unborn child.

    Summary

    Arthur has been perfect since he was born. Straight A’s through school, perfect boyfriend, lots of friends, athletic, rich and attractive. So when he goes to college, he expects nothing short of what he had. What happens instead is the inevitable freshman 15—some of which is muscle from football, but most of it is not. Then it all comes crashing down. 12 years and broken self-esteem later, Arthur, now 30, meets Merlin, a 29-year-old personal trainer, and things start to look up again. But can Arthur be the same person he was after dealing with so much?

    Or: Fat!Arthur tries to become healthier after years of self-esteem battles and failed attempts at relationships, and Merlin is a personal trainer who just might help. But he’s not so perfect himself.

    Summary

    When Leon discovers he can't die after waking up from a fatal injury inflicted by a skeletal soldier, it changes everything. Juggling the stress of being a knight in Camelot, keeping several dangerous secrets including his own immortality, and marveling over the lack of self-preservation of some people, it's no wonder that Leon has a big headache.

He is pleasantly surprised when Gwaine rides out after him to escort him on the journey. The question is why

    Summary

    Amelia never really thought about what would happen when she died. Wait, no that was a lie. She had wondered if she would be reincarnated she supposed or just simply go to some sort of afterlife. Or maybe she would wake up in the world of one of the very first Tv shows that she had got obsessed with.

    Amelia genuinely did not think this would happen, fanfiction is just that! Fanfiction!

    But hey ho here she is.

    ——

    The usual tale of someone dying then waking up in one of their favourite TV show with, what I hope, is a twist.

    Summary

    What happened to you, Morgana?
    Spinning and whirling inside his head, the question had struck Merlin’s whole being as Excalibur would have. What happened to you? Chuckling dryly, he felt the answers swing inside his mind, unconjured. Ignorance, fear, hatred happened. Loneliness, trust, betrayal happened. Uther, Morgause, Merlin happened. And guilt, sharp as a blade, was now clutching at the warlock’s heart.
    (...)
    “Morgana,” he called, his voice hoarse and weak. It was also thick with tears, which he quickly erased. It would not do to cry – not so soon.

    a rewriting of how Arthur and Morgana's confrontation scene in the episode 'The Sword in the Stone' could have gone, if Merlin had intervened.

      Bookmark Notes:

      Merlin’s hands twitched relentlessly, desperately wanting to slip his hand through Arthur's. To provide some sort of comfort, no matter how minimal. His heart ached to be close to him but he knew he couldn’t do it outside the privacy of their rooms.

      It all began a month ago, after Gwen’s banishment.

      He loved Arthur. How can he not? He’s loved him for what feels like forever. Always pining from afar, always protecting from afar. And as long as Arthur’s happy, Merlin’s happy. And Arthur was not happy after Gwen’s false betrayal. Merlin knew that Morgana had a hand in it, raising the shade and tricking them, but Merlin didn’t know how to prove it.

      He never expected to be kissed. He certainly never expected to share the night with him. Neither of them was drunk. But it happened, and Merlin couldn’t change it.

      The morning after was the worst. Merlin just couldn’t, wouldn’t bear it. He tried to slip out without noticing but of course, Arthur noticed. One thing led to another, and the next thing he knew, he was screaming his deepest, darkest secret out, laying it out for Arthur.

      It felt freeing; baring his heart out, revealing his magic. He’ll either be accepted or killed.
      __________________________________________________
      “Why do you do so much for the boy?” Agravaine taunted. Arthur prayed that Merlin wouldn’t fall for the bait. “
      He’s a better man than you’ll ever be,” Merlin gritted out. “The best there is.”

      Arthur felt his heart beat faster at that because Merlin thinks Arthur’s a good man. Agravaine huffed out a laugh so fake that Arthur had to cringe.
      “You know he’ll never love you half as much.” Arthur had to bite back an outraged scream at that. How dare, how dare Agravaine question his love for Merlin? How did he even know in the first place? Arthur would do anything for Merlin. Anything. He’d gladly die for him, make sure he’s always smiling, make sure that he has a shoulder to cry on, make sure he-
      __________________________________________________
      Arthur didn’t see Merlin that night or well into mid-morning the next day. Merlin came back to Ealdor looking disheveled and wearing unfamiliar clothes. Arthur finally had it, and pulled him into the house and locked it. He wouldn’t let Merlin go until he received an explanation.
      “I’ve neutralized Morgana’s magic.” Merlin started, without preamble. How? When? Last night?
      __________________________________________________
      “Yes, but I dressed as an old man. She doesn’t know.” Arthur shook his head and ran a hand through his face. Merlin’s being more and more careless and Arthur fears the day he’ll do something stupid like challenging the Gods. Something told Arthur that Merlin would do just that if required.
      __________________________________________________
      Arthur stood, and one by one, most of the councilors tickled out of the room, until the only ones left were Arthur’s Knights, Gwen, Gaius, and Merlin. Arthur then promptly turned and fell into Merlin’s arms.

    Summary

    During what should have been a secret trip through the Valley of the Fallen Kings, the Knights of the Round table are ambushed, leading to separation of the King and his manservant.

    In the days following, Merlin finds himself at the mercy of a known warlord, and ally of Morgana, Helios as a the newest member of his harem. He learns quickly that the warlord is as cruel as his ally, and just as ambitious. Isolated from everything, and everyone, he holds dear, the young warlock must try to find a way to escape his captors, without losing himself in the process.

    *Takes place during "Servant of Two Masters", but it is still not completely cannon-compliant. Some events will have been moved around because damnit I said so. I love the friendship between Lancelot and Merlin to let him be dead.*
