    Summary

    Merlin keeps forgetting to take care of himself. Until he forgets to eat, drink, and sleep for a whole week, causing him to pass out in Arthur’s chambers in front of him.
    Well Merlin definitely wasn’t expecting Arthur to freak out this much.

    Summary

    Every ten years or so a tournament is held between all the five kingdoms. In which one (strongest of the kingdom) sorcerer is chosen as a representative of their king/queen/crown bearer.
    The monarchs, however, do not choose the sorcerer for themselves, which Arthur is thankful for, since magic is still banned in Camelot. Instead, they are chosen by the mirror of truth. It shows the face of the strongest sorcerer in said lands, so Arthur can reach out to them.

    When the mirror finally chooses the participants, Camelot's champion is......... well i mean, who is the strongest magic user in Camelot? Exactly!

    It's Morgana.

    After all, Merlin was born in Cendred's kingdom.

    Summary

    “Merlin, what is in your hair?” Gaius asks - rather judgmentally, Merlin thinks. It’s not as though Gaius can turn into a bird, making his opinion irrelevant. Everyone’s opinions shall now be irrelevant to him unless they can turn into birds, he decides. He puts a hand to his hair and feels a leaf.

    (So this is a very canon-inaccurate sort of re-telling, with some big divergences, minus a dragon or prophecy or two)

    Summary

    Merlin may not know much, but he knows not to believe any old prophecy a dragon tells him, especially without proof. He came to Camelot to determine his own fate, not to blindly follow his supposed destiny.

    He even turns down King Uther's offer to work as a servant for the insufferable Prince Arthur, but they just can't seem to stop crossing paths.

    The last thing Merlin wanted while he was on his hands and knees with his head in a bush, searching for the elusive snake, was to hear Arthur's pompous voice from behind him.

    "What are you doing?" scoffed the prince.

    "You haven't seen a snake around here, by any chance?" asked Merlin, extracting himself from the bush with difficulty and sitting back on his heels.

    "I'm sorry, one of my knights is in need of medical attention, and the physician's assistant is searching for a new pet?"

    Summary

    During his adventures as the magical saviour of Albion, Merlin meets a tired old Dragonlord. What he doesn't know is that the man is actually his father. Not that that really makes a difference.

    This was low-key kind of inspired by Double Life (yes the despicable me song, don't come for me). I wrote most of it in one weekend.

    Summary

    There were several long moments of tense silence as the gravity of the situation sunk in. Merlin had used magic, and Arthur had been awake. Arthur had seen.

    When Arthur finds out Merlin has magic, at first, he’s angry, then he feels betrayed, then torn—ultimately he doesn’t know what, exactly, to do with his manservant. Of course, he could never hurt Merlin, could he?

    Set in the middle of season 2 just before The Nightmare Begins, Arthur learns about Merlin's magic. This story shows several select episodes, as well as our own scenes following the canon narrative from the perspective of Arthur knowing about Merlin’s magic.

    Summary

    "It's been an honor."

    Merlin tilted his head in recognition. "Likewise."

    He wasn't lying. Respectful assassins were hard to come by.

    or

    When sorcerers make an attempt on the King's life, Merlin is forced to reveal his magic. Fluffy Shenanigans ensure. In which Arthur's a sweet-heart, Gwaine's shameless, Lancelot's downright amazing, Morgana is a mood, and Merlin has a degree in dying for Arthur.

    or

    Arthur having a gay epiphany. Pure fluff. Shoddy Morgana redemption arc.

    Summary

    Wither and Bloom
    2nd-level Necromancy
    Casting Time: 1 action
    Duration: Instantaneous
    You invoke both death and life upon a 10-foot-radius sphere centered on a point within range.

    Arthur’s little manservant Merlin was a fucking liar, Larkin just couldn’t prove it.

    The man was dead at their feet.
    [...]
    “Are you alright?” Merlin asked; eyes wide and chest heaving. He held the sword in his hand awkwardly and his words shook escaping him, but he could not pull the wool over Larkin’s eyes any longer.
    Larkin scowled at him. “I knew you’d show your true colors eventually.”

    Summary

    What did the Fisher King mean when he said this is an arrival of a new time? What if Merlin got sick of waiting for Arthur to protect magical people? What if Emrys and the once and future king are the same person?

    Featuring Merlin becoming a king but staying with Arthur (for now) , all the people we never see again making their way to his kingdom so we see them again. And Merlin leaving Camelot fully when Arthur doesnt believe him over Agravaine.

    A semi complete re-write of merlin from S3 E8 then following the episode structure with added detail along with what happens in the episode until season 4 the Secret sharer. Unless i write something in an episode that changes cannon assume that everything happens as normal.

    Summary

    Every use of magic, every spell, causes a new marking to appear upon a druid's skin - swirling, aethereal tattoos sprawling over their body.
    However, in Camelot where magic is hunted violently, being seen bearing the druid's markings is an executionable offense. Merlin's body is fast running out space as he is forced to use his magic to protect the kingdom, and long sleeves can only hide so much.

    When a plague ravishes through Camelot's population during the height of winter, Arthur and Merlin are sent on a quest to receive the antidote's key ingredient. What Arthur doesn't know is that the aforementioned flower can only be uncovered through use of magic.

    When Merlin uncovers the flower, druid's markings crawl over his hands. Arthur has a decision to make.

    Summary

    The druids of old created the Prophecy of The Once and Future King.

    And they got it wrong.

    “They what?”

    “Wrong. They misinterpreted it.” Whatshisname is excited and has no idea Merlin is about ten seconds away from having the meltdown to end all meltdowns. Possibly literally. He is really rather stupidly powerful in his old age.

    “Explain. Quickly. Less excitedly.”

    Or


    There are reasons why you shouldn’t plan your future based on crystals. Or Druids. Or Dragons. Merlin would like a do-over, thanks.

    Summary

    Merlin's gestures of affection towards Morgana are too dangerous for the servant. Arthur is not jealous, at all.

    Even if he is trying to kill the other one with his eyes.
