    Summary

    It happens gradually. It begins with the repaying of a debt. Merlin saves his life before he even knows him, when all he's seen is a prince with a fragile ego and composure more brittle than dry dirt.

     

    And so Arthur is tied to Merlin.

     

    Devotion is a funny thing, coming from a King.

    Summary

    AU where Arthur has a twin sister, Artesia. Merlin is a knight in Camelot and magic is no longer out-lawed.

    “Merls, I see how you two look at each other” Gwaine exclaimed “For fucks sake!”

    “We do not look at each other in any way” Merlin replied flustered.

    “Oh, come off it, Merls. During training today, you looked like you wanted to be a damsel in distress just so that your knight in shining armor could save you!” Gwaine joked, laughing at Merlin’s fluster.

    “I did not,” Merlin laughed, blushing. A detail that didn’t go unnoticed by Gwaine.

    “You did! Oh I bet. Your crush on the princess is embarrassing” Merlin threw something at Gwaine, making him laugh even louder.

    “Shut it! someone is going to hear you” Merlin said while Gwaine kept laughing.

    He didn’t deny his crush. Arthur frowned with a knot on his throat and he walked away. He should have known better than letting himself hope. A new day awakened and Arthur decided to put Merlin and Artesia out of his mind. He really hoped that in some way that he misinterpreted all the situation someway but clearly not.

    Summary

    He turned instinctively to look over his shoulder, waiting for the snarky quip from him, always trailing just a step behind him. Well- never a step behind him. Never in front of him, either. Or next to him. Four years, and he couldn’t shake the habit forged through a decade of service, to look back for a manservant that had left, hadn’t been seen in the entire kingdom, not even by Archimedes, for four years.

    Arthur now lives in Camelot, a knight of the realm. Yet despite the peace and joy he had found, it's not quite right. Merlin is still missing, and the threat of a dragon in the mountains means that Fate is not done with him quite yet.

    Merlin is losing himself. He wages war inside his mind, alone and isolated. Four years, and the war is almost lost. Insanity burns in his mind, and yet Destiny will not let him suffer alone. The time of Camelot's Golden Age still awaits, no matter how unwilling he is to go along with it.

    Summary

    He could see, in the corner of his eye, the tears glimmering in Gaius’ eyes that threatened to spill over. The soft smiles adorning his knights’ faces. Hear the soft gasps that escaped Gwen’s and Morgana’s lips.

    With a flourish, Arthur drew his sword from its scabbard, the blade gleaming in the sunlight as he held it aloft for all to see. Everyone’s eyes fixed upon the gleaming steel, their breath held in anticipation. He placed the flat of the sword upon Merlin's shoulder, his touch sending shivers down Merlin's spine.

    Just the way he wanted to do so for nearly a decade now.

    OR WHERE arthur becomes the king camelot desperately needed and merlin gets the recognition he deserved. he also becomes a knight. just like he deserved to.

    Summary

    Hurt by a confrontation with a drunk Arthur, Merlin decides he's had enough and leaves Camelot. As he's leaving, Agravaine follows him, determined to kill him so he'll no longer cause him further issues. So Merlin reveals his magic and kills him instead before taking the man's horse and leaving. He travels for a while, playing music at taverns to earn food and shelter before he ends up helping an injured patrol of Caerleon Knights. Queen Annis takes him in and assigns him to train her physicians before discovering his heritage and naming him a knight and reinstating his father's name.

    Along the way, Merlin becomes embroiled in courts and councils, three stubborn and playful princesses, and attends King Arthur's wedding at his Queen's side.

    Before long, Merlin is lord of his own township, conducting magic lessons, and locating Morgana to try and bring her to his estate as a peace offering to the court of Camelot.

    He really wishes he'd found a cave to hide in instead of joining Queen Annis some days....

    Summary

    Young and alone, a recently orphaned Merlin finds himself thrown into a world he never saw himself fitting into. Surrounded by nobles and purebloods, he does his best to find his purpose by training to be a knight under the guidance of one of the best in the world.

    --------
    Merlin's eyes narrowed slightly upon hearing the king's proclamation. He glanced at General Thorn. "Mentor me?" he questioned, fumbling over his words in surprise. "I don't want to be a knight."

    "You have no parents, no home, no food," the king stated bluntly. "I could send you back to the streets still starving or even throw you in the dungeons, considering your open admission of willingness to commit crimes. But Jonah has been both my advisor and my friend for many years, and if he believes in you, there must be a reason why. Like it or not, he will mentor you, and I suggest you heed his lessons if you want to stay out of my dungeons."

    Summary

    “Joining us, are you, Merlin?” says Lancelot from across the room. Gwaine sees his expression mirrored on the other man's face, confused with a hint of concern.

    “Merlin has been riding out with us so regularly, I thought it time for him to have his own armor.”
    Arthur's statement is definitive; no more questions are to be asked.

    Percival’s booming laugh fills the space as he slaps Merlin on the back, causing the man to stumble forward.

    “Our little knight-in-training, we’ll keep an eye on you.”
