Just Between Us, Did the Love Affair Maim You Too? by TheDreamPriestess for FathomMeOut
Fandoms: Merlin (TV)
14 Feb 2025
Tags
Summary
Merlin knew what a Sigil represented; a concept he had been introduced to shortly after arriving in Camelot. A marriage proposal of the deepest and most romantic kind, a callback to the traditions of old – for those who appreciated such things.
As such, Arthur’s message was clear.
Keep it safe for my future bride.
And, well, he could do that. No matter what it took.

Summary
Arthur is relieved when Balinor the Dragonlord agrees to help, but dismayed when he refuses to come back to Camelot. Instead, Arthur is stuck waiting in the middle of nowhere while Balinor calls the dragon. To make matters worse, Arthur’s idiot manservant clearly has a massive crush on the guy: despite him being a grumpy, straggly, cave-dwelling sorcerer, who makes terrible cabbage pottage, Merlin hasn’t taken his eyes off him! Arthur will tolerate this nonsense for a couple of days, but only because he must save Camelot.

Summary
“No,” he pleads. "Father, please. Merlin is not to blame for anything. I’ll accept any punishment you want to give me, but please..." he can't lose Merlin again. He can not.
Uther seems to sense his anguish, because a bit of bewilderment creeps into his harsh expression.
“What is it about this boy?” There's a dangerous suspicion in the king's voice. “He makes my son risk his life and the lives of his knights for him. And the Great Dragon, for some reason, keeps him alive and uses him as a hostage. Why?" he walks towards the prince almost threateningly. “What else are you hiding from me, Arthur?” he demands, his eyes growing colder.
OR
After Arthur rescues Merlin from The Great Dragon he has some explaining to do. To the king, and maybe to himself too. Sequel to "Saving the Dragonlord's son".

Summary
There are those who would be alarmed at seeing their best mate covered in blood and holding a knife, careening around a corner so wildly that he almost claims an additional victim entirely by accident.
And then there’s Gwaine.
(five times gwaine didn't find out about merlin's magic and one time he did)

Summary
As everyone should know, the combination of Gwaine, boredom, and alcohol, does not bode well. Especially for a certain manservant who hasn’t had a drink in over two years.
Or...
Merlin gets drunk and ends up revealing too much

Summary
Three years into King Arthur’s reign, magic users across Camelot are growing restless. Though no more executions have taken place since Arthur made peace with the Druids, sorcery is still punishable by death. Frustrated and increasingly impatient, a group of rogue sorcerers decides to take matters into their own hand, kidnapping Merlin right from under Arthur's nose.
Thus begins a long journey, one where Arthur unearths some hidden truths about everything he thought he knew and Merlin's loyalty is put to the test.

Summary
In the weeks following Sophia and Aulfric's departure from Camelot and Arthur's nonsensical attempt at elopement, the prince begins having trouble sleeping. Dreams of magic, of Avalon, of Merlin being flung into his bedroom wall by Aulfric's staff, plague him every night. They're just dreams, and they can't be real, but Arthur can't help but feel like they're more memories than anything else.
Either way, something happened that Merlin is refusing to tell him, and Arthur intends to figure it out.

Summary
The storm that had passed through Albion didn't only bring devastation to Camelot.
It also brought a party belonging to the king, queen and princess of a distant land on the edge of Albion's maps. As per propriety and courtesy, the king of Camelot was required to hold a feast and provide accommodation for them. The feast started off smoothly, the royals of Camelot getting along quite well with the royals from Harden.
But a single question changed everything. Including the destiny and future of Arthur and Merlin.
"And what are your stances on magic?" Uther asked.
It took all Merlin had not to tense up.

Summary
It has been more than 2,000 years since Arthur's death in Camelot. Magic is no longer, only existing in fairy tales, and yet dark creatures have emerged and destroyed human civilization. Only those who can fight or hide can survive in this new world where modern weapons are ineffective against the monsters.
Gaius, Guinevere, and Arthur's most trusted knights have been reincarnated and are awaiting his return from Avalon so that he can fulfill his destiny as the Once and Future King. Only...where is Merlin?

Summary
Arthur knew what a Sigil represented; a concept he had been introduced to as a young prince, late on those evenings his father could stand his presence for more than a moment. A marriage proposal of the deepest and most romantic kind, a callback to the traditions of old – especially along the Pendragon line.
As such, his message was clear.
He was going to marry Merlin.
No matter what it took.

Summary
Five knights sit around a fire, trading stories of glory and honor. Only one tells the truth—and it isn't about the king.
Gwaine never wanted to be a knight. He stayed for a reason no one expected.
(Or: The night the Round Table finally sees the man who's been holding it together all along.)
