    Summary

    Merlin’s been keeping a close eye on the Riddle boy. It’s the flirting with the Balance that sets Riddle apart, makes him Merlin’s business. Merlin’s never gone out of his way to involve himself. When Riddle drags a baby boy into his mess, though, it’s too far. It’s a little too close to that life-for-a-life business. A little too close to Queen Ygraine’s death. Arthur agrees.
    They’re not the only ones watching. Albus Dumbledore has inserted himself and is already deconstructing the situation, putting measures into place and making plans. The boy is taken care of. Merlin and Arthur make some plans of their own. 
    -------------------
    Merlin and Arthur take note the night Harry Potter cheats death (the first time). When the boy turns 11, they decide it's high time they went back to Hogwarts.

    Summary

    “Never wander alone, my darling, or Jenny Grinteeth will get you,” Hunith used to say. “Or if you forget, make sure you say the rhyme - that wards her off.”

     

    Jenny Grinteeth leave me be, my mother loves me, leave me be.

     

    Jenny Grinteeth is a game they play. But as Merlin is sucked into life at Camelot, he wanders alone more than ever. He is surrounded by people, but he doubts they love him; they can’t really even know him. The loneliness becomes so routine, he forgets his mother’s warnings and the funny, little rhymes, which might otherwise have saved his life.

    Summary

    The tank is spectacularly brilliant. Manta rays gliding across the glass, tropical fish swimming about in bold patterns and colors. Merlin looked like a child compared to its enormity. It was ten times their size and the clearest blue they’ve ever seen.
    The floor dappled with the water’s refraction, its calm hues washing over Merlin’s skin. Somewhere between this barrier of glass and the hundreds of thousands of gallons of water.

    Merlin just knew.

    They were always meant to be painted in this light.

    Summary

    “The shirt I left here last month? You shrank it.”

    Merlin pokes their head out from the shower, dark hair plastered to their pale forehead, blue eyes wide. “I did not. I couldn’t’ve, I’ve only got the washer.”

    “Then how do you explain this?” Arthur demands, gesturing to where his shirt hem ends just below his navel, leaving the rest of his belly to sag out. Merlin smirks.

    “I don’t think that’s a laundry error, love.”

    “You should be more careful who you manhandle,” Merlin says, a teasing smile on their lips and a playful glint in their eyes. “You may mess with the wrong person.”

    Lancelot raises a brow, the corner of his mouth quirking up. “Oh, really?” he asks, faux curiosity saturating his voice.

    The BAU didn’t know what to expect when they were suddenly told they had a new member, someone not even Strauss could redirect. They certainly didn’t expect a young, naive, energetic and hyper man from England to come tripping into the BAU.

    Summary

    While Merlin and Gwaine attempt to win a bet against Arthur by trying monogamy for a week, Elyan looks to someone new to take the edge off. Elyan finds Lancelot’s unending nobility rather off-putting, but he’s pretty sure he can corrupt him.

    The fact that Lancelot is secretly a chaotic dumpster-fire of a human being with a penchant for well-intentioned treason is a source of dramatic irony that’s fun for all--erm, most--ages.

    Featuring casual sex, some fun-poking at monogamy, and two storage closets used for two (different) illicit purposes.

    Summary

    ** CURRENTLY BEING REWRITTEN AND WILL BE REPUBLISHED UNDER ANOTHER NAME **

    It has been a thousand years since Arthur died. In the modern age, Merlin passes the days by maintaining Camelot's castle and healing the sick. He spends each night at the edge of the Lake of Avalon, awaiting a man he fears will never return.
    But of course, Arthur does return - to a world he doesn't recognize. Merlin must help him adjust to modern society before it is too late. Arthur struggles with his past and his destiny, along with the new world that he has difficulty making sense of.
    The world is in peril; a modern plague, climate change, and war threaten the existence of any future. Magic is dying, with Merlin being the only sorcerer at full power left on earth.
    Arthur and Merlin are the only ones who can do it. And, it being the two of them against the world, some feelings may finally bubble to the surface.

    "Scan you?" Merlin asked.
    "To scan all of my magic. To check for secret aggression. Anytime you feel the need to."
    "You'd put up with that?"
    "I have nothing to hide, Emrys."
