Summary
Arthur has known about Merlin's magic for quite some time, but Merlin didn't know this. Arthur was going to tell him he knew, though, because he couldn't take it anymore, watching as Merlin threw himself into danger without help at every single opportunity.
However, plans get scattered when Merlin hits his head pretty hard...and cannot remember the names of these two handsome men staring at him with concern.

Summary
Arthur knows Merlin has a secret, but he doesn't know what it is.
***
Merlin’s expression changes. It’s like stepping into water expecting it to be a puddle and ending up in the ocean. Arthur suddenly can’t breathe. Because Merlin’s looking at him the same way he looked at Agravaine. As though they are on opposite sides of a chess board, and capturing the king ends in death.

Summary
The dragon leaned forward. "Your destiny is to protect Uther Pendragon's heir, the one who will be the Once and Future King and unite all of Albion."
Merlin blinked. "But . . . Uther doesn't have an heir."
. . .
In many Arthurian texts, Arthur is raised as a peasant by Sir Ector with no knowledge of his royal lineage. Let's bring that back, shall we?

Summary
Everyone he trusted with his secret – Will, Freya, Balinor, Lancelot, and now Gaius – was gone. Arthur would never bring magic back to the land, and he would never let Merlin stand at his side the way Merlin had hoped he would. It was a cold awakening, years of baseless faith dashed against the fraying tapestry that destiny had made Merlin sew into his own skin, but an awakening nonetheless.
Merlin is shaken out of his obsession with destiny and his blind faith in Arthur. Arthur just wishes he knew how to get his closest friend back.
(For Merthur Angst Week 2021 Day 7: “No. You don’t get to talk.”)

Summary
When Merlin comes to work with a black eye and a fist-shaped purple bruise across his left cheek, Arthur goes into instant protective mode.
Leaping out of bed the second he spots Merlin’s face, he stops in front of Merlin and crosses his arms.
“What the hell?” Merlin squawks, obviously startled by Arthur’s abnormally fast awakening.
“Yes, precisely,” Arthur agrees. “What the hell, Merlin? Who did this?”
What if Merlin was roughed up by Dagr and his minion a little more than in canon? What if Arthur did something before Gwaine could get himself and Merlin into trouble?

When Arthur died, he met the triple goddess herself.
She gifted him with truth, and a chance to re-weave the workings of fate.“Remember this moment Arthur Pendragon, remember the fates you wish to spin into better yarn.”

Summary
"You feel… all that?" Arthur's voice whispered, as if afraid that speaking would interrupt the flow of this between them. He gripped Merlin's hand a bit tighter and glanced down at the swirl of gold and blue enveloping them.

Summary
In the context of their lives, Merlin was the least of anyone’s worries.
But Arthur knew there was more. He could feel it. It dawned on him one afternoon that Merlin, though an aggravatingly open book at times, revealed startlingly little about himself.
How much did he really know about Merlin?

Summary
“Your prowess at the healing arts is also so awe-inspiring,” Merlin said, “what do those smoked herbs do?”
In the corner one of the druids started coughing.
“Uhh,” the cloaked figure in front of him finished the bandage, “they, well…”
A druid from the corner chipped in, “Relax ya!”
“Yeah, relax!” the other agreed quickly. “You gotta let you’re uh -muscles- rest sometimes.”
They looked to the druids in the corner with a weird expression. Merlin supposed they were communicating with their minds.
“So wise,” Merlin nodded sagely, “just like Gaius told me.”
Or: What my mind comes up with at midnight after binging BBC Merlin and the only coherent thought I can have is, "They're All So Stupid." Everyone is both 100 times smarter and 100 time dumber than they are in canon. Basically a compilation of short, cracky scenarios set in different seasons of Merlin that are somehow completely unconnected, but all happening in the same universe.

Merlin, Gwen, and Morgana. Two of them giggling. Morgana smirking.
