Summary
"Nathaniel was quiet by necessity; his father’s rage could never have allowed for an outspoken child, but it was not his nature. With every blow, burn, and wound they inflicted upon his small body, his heart burned with the injustice of it all. Still, it was all he had ever known. And at the ripe old age of six, his fiery temper had been weathered by a more powerful impulse to run, to hide, to never be caught underfoot.
It was that fear that had brought him farther from the house than he had ever been before. He wasn’t sure how he had managed to slip away from his ‘nanny’ (who was tasked with keeping a close eye on him and reporting back to his father and Lola), or indeed how his fumbling, childish limbs had carried him as far as they did."
Canon rewrite, what if Neil had been a mermaid a la H2O Just Add Water during the events of AFTG?

Summary
Something tugs in the center of his chest. He should be angry, furious at his brother for trying to do something to screw him over, even after years of not speaking. He’s been doing the same since they were kids, using Ilya as a scapegoat to slip out of his responsibilities and consequences for his own actions. Doing this - getting a woman pregnant that isn’t his wife and claiming it’s Ilya who has done it - is just something else to add to the list.
Instead he just looks at the picture of this tiny little boy and wonders if he’ll have freckles.

Summary
Arthur's eyes widen minutely, and Merlin can see fists tighten by his side, but he doesn't move out of Merlin's grasp, doesn't show any other reaction. And Merlin has never touched Arthur like this, never so unkindly but he's reached a boiling point, the thought of carrying on with this thankless routine is agonising.
His voice is almost a whisper when he speaks next. He leans in closer, unable to look at Arthur anymore, instead he says his next words a breath away from his ear. "You could thank me on your knees and it wouldn't come anywhere close to adequate appreciation."
.
In which Merlin is overwhelmed and underappreciated. Stretched thin between keeping the kingdom safe, playing the role of Arthur’s servant as well as the role of Gaius’ apprentice, and dealing with his magic, he snaps and quits. Arthur, of course, begins to realise the emptiness of life without Merlin. What follows is a mix of frustration, hurt, pining, and, finally, a reunion. Featuring the ever tired and concerned knights of the round table (except Gwaine, he doesn’t really give a shit.)
