Of Kings and Servants (and Queens Who See Too Much) by SilentFootsteps
Fandoms: Merlin (TV)

Summary
The bond between Arthur Pendragon and his servant had always been obvious to those who spent any time in close proximity to them. Whispers of extraordinary loyalty, rumours of a life saved and the debt that had been repaid didn’t spread freely beyond Camelot’s walls but that didn’t stop people from seeing it with their own two eyes (or single eye, or even no eyes; it was not subtle in the slightest).
Or, Merlin and Arthur's bond seen through the eyes of Queen Annis.

When the bullet hits, Eddie goes down. One second, Buck has locked eyes on Eddie, the next, he is on the Psionic Plane. Eddie is dying, and only a bond with his Guide will be able to save him. Not everything is easy for the two as soon as Ana Flores learns that her former Boyfriend has been shot. She accuses Buck of forcing a Bond on Eddie, and it ends up with the two of them being kept separate. An investigation is started to assess the claim, as Ana Flores does what she can to get the bond broken, even calling in Helena and Ramon Diaz for help. After all, she knows that when a Bond is broken, it can never be forged again.

Destiny Is A Scam and So Is This School by GAMERBLADE

Summary
Merlin has survived dragons, destiny, kings, magic-hating monarchs, and the emotional devastation of watching everyone he’s ever loved die.
So really, he thought, a simple trip to the wizarding world for tea couldn’t possibly be that bad.
He was wrong.
Now he’s somehow become the unofficial emotional support adult of Hogwarts, is being hunted by the house-elves because he keeps fixing castle structural problems himself, dealing with a basilisk situation that Merlin is “pretty sure he dealt with once already, back in the 5th century.” and trying to stop Gilderoy Lockhart from deciding that he is his "professional rival."
Merlin regrets stepping outside...

Summary
In a land of myths and time of magic, where truths are told and bonds are strengthened, changing the destinies of a whole land.
.
“Arthur, I know you don’t want to do this.”Arthur doesn’t look away from his father, knowing better than to give him the opportunity to gain the upper hand but even without turning, he knows Merlin’s voice and he hears the softer tone that always seems to break through to him, despite him being a servant to his Prince.
“My mother is dead because of him,” is all he manages and he barely notices how broken his own voice sounds.
A noticeable beat passes through the air and when Merlin speaks again, despite the emotion in his voice, he doesn’t deny it.

Summary
After Arthur disobeyed his father and retrieved the Mortaeus flower for Merlin's cure, Arthur's frantic pleading to save Merlin led to a misunderstanding that actually convinced Uther to take the flower to Gaius.
Now all Arthur has to do is explain to Merlin why Uther thinks they are lovers.
And while Uther is supportive of the relationship, he requires it kept secret. But in his paranoia, Uther misinterprets every innocent interaction between the two as something far more intimate, to the embarrassment of everyone involved.
And then the knights begin showing up...

Summary
The Winter Soldier was an omen.
He was unstoppable in his goals, vicious in his execution. Cold and unfeeling as his name. He was a herald of death, a shadow in the night, a name only in the words of dying men, whispered syllables on blood-coated lips.
The Winter Soldier was also dead.
It's been months. Bucky should feel better.
But standing next to Percy on the other side of the police tape, looking over the tally of bodies that just keeps growing, he can't help but feel anything but dread.
The Winter Soldier was gone. But it was becoming brutally apparent that he was not the only ghost who had taken up clawing his way through innocents.
