Summary
Arthur has known about Merlin's magic for years, and kept that knowledge a secret even from Merlin. But Merlin is reckless, and Arthur cannot bear the thought of Uther discovering his friend's magic, so he launches a desperate gambit to convince Uther to repeal the Ban.
He discovers for himself how cruel Uther can be.

Summary
“Well, I’ll be damned!” The old man crowed and tugged Merlin closer “How have you not seen it, Uther? The resemblance is uncanny!” He beamed, ruffling the servant’s hair “Sorry, son. You look like an old friend of ours. Good ole’ Balinor. A member of court before Uther chased him away.” The man snorted and Arthur’s gaze jerked up.
“Balinor?” He asked sharply and turned where his father was taking a sip of his wine “The dragonlord?”
OR
An old friend of Uther’s drops by and notices Merlin looks familiar. Arthur remembers Merlin’s reaction to Balinor’s death and puts the pieces together.

Summary
Arthur is cursed to obey Merlin’s orders.
Obviously this has very little impact on their lives, since no servant would ever dare give orders to a prince.

Summary
You grow into the person who would’ve protected you as a child.
Alfred finds himself left with a little boy to care for. Not just any boy, but a Wayne, destined for greatness like his parents. He does his best to raise him, and it hurts his heart - really it does - but sometimes that means discipline.
Bruce knows he’s not good. Well aware that he deserved what Alfred gave him when he was a child. But now that he has children of his own, Bruce can’t fathom disciplining them like he was.That doesn’t mean Alfred was wrong to inflict those punishments on Bruce. Bruce deserved it. Just not his kids.
Never his kids.
