Summary
“Flowers,” Arthur repeats dubiously. “Merlin is out… selling flowers.”
“The cornflowers sell especially well,” Gaius says.
Or: Merlin, on his trips to find herbs for Gaius, starts bringing home flowers. It doesn’t take long until the townspeople of Camelot start asking for specific flowers, and for Merlin to start taking orders.
Things sort of spiral.

If my secret had a secret would your secret be negated or would it grow instead? by Merlioske

Summary
Arthur had always trained to be the best. He did his work, then did some more and then more still. Yet, his father's eyes never glowed in pride. He was never... Good enough. Never strong or fast enough. Never Alpha enough. He had accepted it. Accepted, that, being born a beta, a beta *Prince* he'd have to work all that much more to prove his worth. He had. But why was it so hard?
Merlin never had it easy. But he had his mam, he had his Will and screw the rest, really. Except then, out of the blue, Puberty hit. Now Merlin has it *worse*. Camelot is /not/ a smart place to be. For a secret sorcerer. For a secret, peasant sorcerer. For a secret, peasant, *Alpha* sorcerer. But, well, he'll just keep his head down, learn a healing trade and nothing bad will happen.

Summary
Navigating life events that turn his world upside down, including his ascension to the throne and a revelation that rocks him to his core, Arthur's ever-evolving relationship with Merlin becomes the most important of his life. No one ever said love was easy.
“I would die before I hurt you,” Arthur said, his voice strangled. “I would kill anyone who ever tried to do you harm and it pains me to think that you could ever fear me.”
“I don’t understand,” Merlin said breathlessly. “You’re the king, you – ”
“I’m not standing here as a king, Merlin!” Arthur shouted, his voice breaking as he did so. “I’m standing here as a man, a man who believed he knew you completely, a man who thought you were the one constant in his life, a man who thought…who thought you were his,” he finished, horrified to feel tears pricking his eyes.

Summary
How can we possibly understand ourselves, our feelings? I figured I'd understand them when I became an adult. Maybe I do and just don't realize it. Maybe I'm just as clueless as I've ever been. Looking back, I try to piece together what it all meant. And still, I somehow feel like it's all a guess, like I can never understand myself, you... him. People are so complicated, so confusing. Why can't I figure this out? Why aren't you here to figure it out with me? Why is it all so hard to put into words... I miss you.
