Summary
Merlin moved to Camelot as a child with his mother to escape being hunted in Ealodr. On his first night he bumps into an arrogant, pompous, no good golden prince who threatens him with a sword. When Uther pulls him away and bans Merlin from ever coming near his son again, Merlin knows they are destined to be friends.
The boys keep their friendship hidden from the public and grow up together, learning from each other in ways no one else could understand. It was all running smoothly… until Merlin had to save his life using magic, and accidentally cementing his place as Arthur’s manservant. Now the boys have to hide that they even know each other, Merlin’s magic, and any other feelings that may get in the way as they try to guide Camelot into a golden age.OR
Merlin and Arthur meet as boys and grow up together as mates secretly. Eventually Arthur realises that feeling the way he does about Merlin isn’t how a friend should feel and Merlin is obviously clueless. They’re both clumsy idiots and apparently, stupid boys.

Summary
Merlin accidentally sets up an orphanage.
-
“You’re doing an amazing thing here,” Lancelot said apropos of nothing as he handed Merlin a nail.
“It’s hardly amazing,” Merlin scoffed, concentrating on fixing the wooden beam in place. “I used to fix my mother’s roof all the time when I was little.”
“I mean here.” Lancelot gestured back to the house. “These children would have nowhere to go if you didn’t take them in.”
“Oh I don’t really do much,” Merlin said with a wave of his hand. “I just pop by every now and then to say hello. Mary does all the work.”
Merlin concentrated back on the roof. Anything not to look into Lancelot’s proud and warm eyes.He couldn’t explain to wonderful, pure Lancelot why he didn’t deserve any praise. Taking in these children, helping them to grow up safe and fed, it was the least he could do after all the destruction he had caused in Camelot.

Summary
Arthur considered himself not to be an unreasonable man. And so, he wondered, was it unreasonable of him to expect a night’s rest in his chambers, with his wife, to go uninterrupted by his manservant?
(or; Merlin visits his best friend in the middle of the night. Oh, and her husband.)

Summary
Merlin watches the sun kiss Arthur Pendragon, watches it paint his golden body in a brighter shade, watches it leave him blessed with it’s midas touch. He thinks that if he called to the sun with his power it would hang in the sky a few moments longer— to give him a better view, allow him to commit this moment to memory, allow him to copy each slope and dip and callous. He thinks that if he spoke to time she would pause for him, would allow him to steal him away— He is aging; Merlin would tell her; I can see it in each new day, each new wrinkle, each new smile. Let him take me with him, this time. Do not leave me to hold silent vigil over his cooling corpse and his bones that will be bleached by the very sun that bathes him now. He thinks that if he were the type to pull rank, death would halt his scythe.
or
Merlin and Arthur have fought for peace and have begun to grasp it.

Summary
On one beautiful summer morning, a rather obnoxious ruckus came from a room in the royal physician’s quarters.
“Now just what is going on in here, Merlin?” Gaius entered the room of his apprentice, having to nearly duck as a tunic was thrown right where he was standing.
“Oh- Gaius! Good morning. Oh, nothing,” Merlin laughed, pausing in his task to wave his hand. “You wouldn’t have happened to see a tiny, little dragon wood carving laying around, have you?”
Merlin’s words were strung together in a haphazard line, voice bordering on the edge of hysteria as he continued to tear his room apart.
Or
Merlin has lost something very very dear to him and this is just the start of a *very* bad day.
