Summary
Death found him peaceful and waiting, laid back on the blue immensity of his bed. His wife to his side, and their four children around them, three sons and a daughter.
'What took you so long?' he means to ask 'There's someone outside the walls of Camelot that waited a lifetime for me to return to them.'(sequel to 'a good death' and 'the best, the dearest, the one I held the nearest'; final installment to the 'le Roi de Camelot et Merlin d'Avalon')

Summary
A year contains 365 days. Each day can be counted in 24 candle marks, so it's possible to burn 8760 marks in the span of the one year Merlin has been dead. Not a single one of them lessen the mournful air that envelops Camelot, and Arthur thinks it will take four times as many before anyone who has known the blue-eyed man with too large ears and too big of a heart can smile and mean it.
(sequel to A Good Death)

Summary
Merlin's mother raised him right when it comes to food: you finish your plate and you don't eat other people's food. He knows this. He isn't about to go back on it.
Coming to Camelot is no different. He just has to figure out what food he can eat and he'll be alright. After all, he can't exactly expect the luxuries he had in Ealdor, now can he?

Summary
He whipped his head back to Merlin so fast his neck burned, watching as the boy’s eyes faded from shimmering gold, one hand extended in the air.
The world seemed to slow, shock and anger reverberating through Arthur’s core. He could do nothing but stare, and Merlin stared back, fear, guilt, and something unreadable in his expression.
Then, there was a whizzing cut through the air, one that left Arthur’s ears ringing. He watched – helpless, the anger punched out of him – as the arrow buried itself in Merlin’s side.

Summary
“Where did you learn to do that?” Gwaine asked, following Merlin up the bank.
“This is how normal people fish,” Merlin replied dryly. “Not trying to stab them with swords.”“This is a knife,” Gwaine retorted, sounding every bit as sulky as he felt.
“Still, you didn’t catch a fish.”
------------------------------------------------------Gwaine saves a young Merlin from a beating and ends up with a new little brother to take care of on his travels.
Or, what would Merlin be like if he had Gwaine influencing him over his formative years?

Summary
There was a click, and then a whistle, and then Merlin felt like he’d been punched in the side.
He stumbled. The edges of his vision went gray. He heard his mother gasp.
“Merlin!” Will bellowed.

Summary
A small ball hovered in her hand, shining with a silver-blue light. It floated there, getting brighter and brighter before dimming again. Wisps of cloud swirled at its center. It was pure magic.
And the breath was stolen from Arthur’s lungs.
“I thought you’d recognize it. He said it was warm. He said it reminded him of home.”It has been one year since Merlin's death when Arthur meets Morgana on the battlefield.
Somehow, between all the guilt and shame, he discovers that his sister knew Merlin better than he ever did - and ever would.- Language:

Summary
“I think he’s awake,” Arthur calls out, and the noise bludgeons Merlin’s head like a hammer, and he presses his eyes closed as if to force away his ability to hear as much as his ability to see. It doesn’t work well for him, and he chokes on a breath. His throat is on fire as he starts coughing.
Gods, he’s ill. He thinks he’s very ill.

Summary
Of all the ways Arthur and the knights could've found out about his magic, Merlin hadn't thought it'd be due to a sparrow. There will be a happy ending, but it's gonna take a while.
"Arthur was terrified when he saw Merlin make up his mind to jump. He put on a burst of speed, willing his body to give everything he had so he could just-reach out and….He crashed at full speed into the warlock, knocking them both out of breath, but most importantly, far away from the edge of the ravine. Merlin fought him, kicking and clawing for escape, but it was clear that whatever had fueled him for so long was gone, and eventually the kicking and punching and shouting was gone, and Merlin wept in Arthur’s arms, trembling hard.
“Sorry, so sorry, so so sorry. ‘M so sorry, Arthur,” he sobbed desperately, and Arthur held him close, heart racing and eyes wet. “I’m so sorry, please don’t burn me. I’m so sorry. I didn’ mean to, I was born with it.” Merlin cried, and Arthur shushed him gently."
A huge thanks to the remarkable artists who have been generous enough to bless me with their work. xoxo
