Summary
Penny finds herself facing a far less theoretical crisis than the men across the hall ever seem prepared for: money. With the Cheesecake Factory slashing her hours and auditions drying up, survival—not ambition—becomes the priority. Pride bruised but desperation winning, Penny begins searching for work that will keep her apartment, her independence, and her carefully constructed sense of self intact.
Enter Dr. Sheldon Cooper—who, quite by accident and under firm administrative pressure from President Siebert, discovers that his professional life has been deemed insufficiently collaborative. The solution, according to the university, is simple: Sheldon requires a personal assistant. Someone to manage correspondence, scheduling, grant logistics, and the myriad inefficiencies of a world that stubbornly refuses to operate according to logic.
Penny is, by every measurable metric Sheldon values, an appalling choice.
She is untrained, uncredentialed, emotionally expressive, chronically late, and—most concerning of all—inconsistent. And yet, through a series of circumstances neither of them will ever admit was anything less than unavoidable, Penny becomes exactly that: Sheldon Cooper’s assistant.

Summary
His heartbeat stayed steady. Good. Because Bruce had never felt a flutter for anything. Clark forced down the seizing pain in his chest, lingering at the doorway for just a few seconds, knowing those deep blue eyes he had drowned in too long were watching him. Watching him carefully. As if, if he lingered even a little longer, he’d break and go back. The distance from him to Bruce was only seven steps.

Summary
They do say you can run, but you can't hide. L assumed he was the exception to the rule—building a new identity, a new life, a new love on the other side of the world, he presumed he'd be safe.
Somehow, one wrong turn, one chance encounter in California, and he finds himself staring into the eyes of the man who swore he'd own him forever. And perhaps, that is exactly how L learns that some predators never give up on their prey.

Summary
The smirk tugging at Peter's mouth was tired and self-satisfied, smug as a thought crossed his mind. “I don’t think you’d last a day without jumping me.”
Wade didn’t even try to deny it.
“Now why would I willingly choose,” he murmured, leaning in as his fingers slowed, dragging faint shapes across Peter’s spine, “to deprive myself of my daily dose of Petey-Pie?”
“Maybe because you can’t,” Perter muttered innocently, like he wasn’t baiting him. And yeah—he knew he was, that was the point.

“Wade, fuck—” he choked, voice shattering, pitch gone too high and desperate to sound anything like defiance. “Don’t be—don’t be mean—”
Wade leaned in slow. His mouth hovered by Peter’s ear, breath hot and heavy, body still pressed close enough to feel the heat radiating off his skin.
“I’m not, Webs. It’s just that you started this,” he whispered, low and knife-sharp, words slipping under Peter’s skin like a brand. “You’re not getting off with that stupid mask on.” His voice was calm, deceptively soft for how much it made Peter’s cock throb. “I want to see your face.”

Summary
"Let him think I hate him. If that’ll stop him from risking his neck for me over and over again, then it’s a sacrifice I don’t have to think twice about."
—
Arthur finds out Merlin has magic. He also finds out how often Merlin risked his life for him and so, he does the only thing he can think of to protect him: banishment.
Hurt and angry, Merlin leaves and swears to not look back.
But, when two years pass and Morgana shows up at Merlin’s door, urging him to fill Gaius’ position as Court Physician, Merlin agrees. He really doesn’t know why, but Arthur is sure Merlin would do just about anything to get on his nerves.
Unprepared for the shock of seeing Merlin back in the castle, Arthur is forced to speed along his plans to lift the ban on magic. But between stubborn councilors, a mysterious plague, a still angry Merlin, and Morgana being Morgana, Arthur is fairly certain he’ll lose his mind before the first year of his reign even ends.

Summary
All Merlin was expecting was a night off, maybe he'd have a glass of wine or read a book later, but for now he was content to sit by fire with his mending. He wasn't expecting a surly Arthur to come back to his rooms hours before he was due, his foul mood caused by some stupid Lord or other laughing at the surprising fact that (or at least Merlin thought so) the Prince was still a virgin. Even more surprising was that Arthur took Merlin's advice on the matter, arranging a tryst with a recently widowed Lady so-and-so, only for him to realize too late what a stupid idea that was.
Since he can't cancel now, Arthur demands Merlin teach him everything he knows about sex, which definitely isn't another stupid idea and definitely won't lead to at least one (or both) falling in love.

Summary
Arthur Pendragon works sixty hour weeks and is devoted to his family name, until one night Uther goes just a bit too far. Restless and confused, Arthur gets into his car and drives until he can't. It is the middle of the night in a small village in Wales, and a helpful officer directs him to a B&B for the night.
There he finds a kindly innkeeper, his very weird historian gremlin nephew, odd people, odd situations, and even odder - himself.
A slightly absurd and very gentle story about coming back to yourself, finding a true family, and realizing that historian gremlins are actually really hot and rather amazing, and perfect to fall in love with.

Summary
A group of Camelot knights stop by Ealdor on their way to meet with King Cenred and Merlin can't help but notice one of them in particular - not difficult as he seems to notice Merlin too. His magic certainly seems to have some opinions about it.
But he's only passing through, so best forget it and move on, right?

“Tell me what you want,” Batman growled, releasing just enough pressure on Joker’s throat to let him speak.
Joker’s lips curled into a bloodied grin. “Break me.”
—
Joker invites Batman to a totally not suspicious abandoned carnival under the guise of a kidnapping. But surprise! There’s no hostage, just a brand new toxin Joker’s been dying to test out. It doesn’t kill, but it sure as hell makes things… complicated.Bookmarked by IIALFAII

Summary
A hand grasped his arm, sending a brief thrill down Merlin's nerves as he was forced around to face the person behind him. Armour gleamed in the firelight: supple chainmail glinted, and the solid iron of a pauldron curved lovingly over one broad shoulder. The length of a sword blade separated them. The point hovered, steady and sure, over Merlin's heart, braced to run him through, but he did not care about any of that. He was too busy drinking in the sight of the man before him.
He could never forget him, no matter how many centuries had passed.
'Arthur?'
When Merlin ultimately fails in his destiny, the fading remnants of magic that linger in the modern world fling him not just back in time, but sideways as well. He ends up in a Camelot where all his friends are alive, well and aware of his magic.
He ends up in a Camelot where his alternate self died almost a year ago.
Can he, Arthur and their friends still forge the golden age he was once promised, or will grief and suspicion tear them apart?

Summary
A modern magical comedy very loosely based on Ugly Betty. Publishing king Uther Pendragon has had enough of his playboy son seducing every female assistant he has ever had so he hires Merlin, a man he is sure Arthur will never sleep with. Merlin would be more insulted by this fact if he wasn’t so busy trying to juggle his duties, save Arthur's skin from ruthless fashionistas and keep his magic a secret at the same time. Expect appearances by oil-lathered knights, the occasional mad druid, a perverted Will and a mental caretaker who lives in the basement and keeps harping on about coins and destiny.

Summary
"You spend all your time thinking about what you can’t have," Gwaine continued, his tone dipping into something softer, something dangerously close to serious. "Maybe you should focus on what you can. You need a distraction."
Merlin blinked at him, caught off guard. "And what exactly does that mean?"
Slowly, a smirk curled at the edges of Gwaine’s lips.
"Well," he murmured, reaching out with an unexpected gentleness, "I think I can help with that."
----------
Merlin has secretly been in love with Arthur for years, convinced his feelings will never be returned. When Gwaine offers a distraction to help him move on, the unexpected closeness between them sparks jealousy in Arthur, leading him to realize he’s in love with Merlin too
