Summary
To say Arthur was having a terrible, horrible, no-good, very bad day was putting it lightly. It started out with the pixie in the pantry, which sounded like one of Gwaine’s inane drinking songs but was in actuality an unmitigated disaster of flour, chaos, flying apples, and wasted pastries…
…
An unfortunate incident with a pixie leads to Arthur and Merlin swapping bodies for a day. When Merlin’s closely guarded secrets surface in the process, it’s up to Arthur to figure out how to proceed. Trust, love, protection, they’re all forms of the same thing, aren’t they? And what of secrets, burdens, and all the lies we keep to ourselves? This is a story about what would happen if we chose to pull off the veil and step, together, into the light.

Summary
After five years of living in Camelot, Merlin’s picked up quite a few handy skills. Ranging from his servant chores to impossible feats of magic. There are some things he’s learned though that had nothing to do with either. Like how to deal with a pair of guards in front of Arthur and the knights, ergo without using magic.
Arthur is absolutely not jealous. Not. One. Bit.Bookmarked by MerthursDestiny

Summary
Merlin was supposed to be the most powerful sorcerer to ever walk the earth. Magic itself. The one destined to bring peace, the immortal Emrys the druids whispered about, half god, half myth.
And yet, he couldn’t even heal a fucking paper cut.
****
Merlin’s magic has always failed him when it comes to healing. So when Arthur is fatally injured before his eyes, Merlin has only one choice left - to break every rule of nature to keep him alive.

Summary
“I’ll fix it.” Merlin croaks. “I’ll fix everything. We’ll switch places. You’ll be back in Camelot in no time. You’ll see Gwen again. I promise.”
Arthur makes a noise of protest but Merlin shushes him. “I know you don’t trust me anymore but I will make everything right.” Merlin vows.
The sorcerer truly means this, Arthur knows. Sincerity is practically dripping from every word. It’s such a Merlin thing to promise, with that earnest and determined tone. It only scares Arthur more.

Summary
It is Yuletide in Camelot. On the eve before Yule, Arthur and Merlin profess their love. Then Arthur finds out about Merlin's magic and his years of deception. He is hurt and angry until the spirits of Yuletide come to him and show him the full truth about Merlin. There is some angst along the way, but an eventual happy ending makes for a satisfying holiday story. This tale is, of course, inspired by Dickens' timeless Christmas story: "A Christmas Carol."
This is a slightly expanded and freshly edited version of a work I posted a while back.
