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
“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?

Bookmarker's Notes
“ What if Izuku decided to become a quirk specialist instead of a hero?
Just a little short story about Aizawa bringing Eri to the office Izuku's interning at, and Izuku being able to help Eri more than the professionals ever could.”And part two has 2A shenanigans!!

Summary
The thing is, Tim is old enough now to know that most parents don't leave their ten-year-old children alone for weeks at a time. He's aware that almost all of his classmates actually see their parents more during the summer break.
He even thinks skipping your kid’s birthday three years in a row might not be normal.
He's just not old enough to do anything about it.
***
In the second half of 1999, Tim Drake makes friends, mixtapes and questionable decisions.

Summary
“Last week, Richard was showing me this show called ‘Bill Nye the Science Guy’—”
“BILL, BILL, BILL, BILL, BILL, BILL,” Richard, Jason, and Drake chant as one immediately.
“Bill Nye the science guy,” Father finishes under his breath, and all three of his brothers proceed to lose their minds. Damian stares aghast at his father, and is gratified to see him wince.
“I had to,” Father offers apologetically, as if that explains anything.

Damian punches a kid at school. Except he also doesn't?
His family gets to the bottom of things.
