Summary
Xun doesn’t realize he’s in love.
Everyone else does, except tragically the only person he’s into.
But what starts as a harmless crush he hasn’t quite named slowly twists into a mess of misunderstandings, missed cues, and words lost in translation—until he’s no longer sure what’s real and what he’s only imagining.
He thought he was just admiring a teammate.
Now he’s wondering if he’s already lost something he never truly had.
Or, Xun being utterly oblivious to the concept of feelings and a series of misunderstandings ensues

Summary
" Guillermo met his eyes across the courtyard, and for a moment the human was grave and resolute as a warrior in battle, resigned to his fate yet defiant to its circumstances. For a moment Nandor imagined this meeting as the start of a war rather than a courtship, and for that moment he felt as if he'd found his footing again.
But then the human had done something outrageous.
Then the human had smiled. "
In the end, when all was said and done, the marriage of Nandor the Relentless and Guillermo de la Cruz would be remembered as a pivotal and defining moment in the history of human and vampiric society alike.
In the beginning, however, it was mostly just a mess.

Summary
In the grand scheme of things, finding a date for a wedding should be no problem for Louis Tomlinson. He's rich. He's handsome. He's reasonably well behaved. But when the wedding is for his lifelong best friend (and former boyfriend), and is happening in under a month, finding a date for the ceremony and accompanying festivities becomes more of an adventure than he ever could have planned for.

Summary
A Modern day Merlin AU set at the University of St Andrews, featuring teetotal kickboxers, secret wizards, magnificent bodyguards of various genders, irate fairies, imprisoned dragons, crumbling gothic architecture, arrogant princes, adorable engineering students, stolen gold, magical doorways, attempted assassination, drunken students, shaving foam fights, embarrassing mornings after, The Hammer Dance, duty, responsibility, friendship and true love...
This story was inspired by the thought of Prince William of Wales (and indeed the current Max von Hapsburg) studying at the University of St Andrews; it is also, as the title suggests, at least a little inspired by the operetta 'The Student Prince'.
Grateful thanks to Lamardeuse and DarkEmeralds for Beta and cheerleading!
::2019 note: This story was written BEFORE the TV show introduced the character of Gwaine. It's not that I can't spell, or that I'm perversely writing him out of character - I incorporated other characters from Arthurian legend (Kay, Gawain etc) into my story, and lacking prophetic abilities, my versions naturally don't mesh with the versions subsequently introduced into the show.::

Summary
“Is it so hard to believe that I assumed at least one of you would take my side? That one of the men I call family would believe in me? That someone would fight for me? Say no, Arthur would never kill Merlin?” His voice began rising, agony taking over his need to shut his body down. “Is it so hard to believe?” he yelled into the otherwise quiet forest. “That I wanted someone to take my side? That someone would love me first?” Arthur tore his gaze away from Leon, “that I wanted one person in this whole fucking kingdom to love me?”
Or
Arthur saw Merlin use his magic and has to deal with realizing every one of his most trusted knights -his family- all believed that he would kill Merlin.- Language:
