    Summary

    When the attempt at healing Uther backfires and kills him instead—thereby reinforcing Arthur’s hatred of magic—Merlin decides that the time has come to give up on destiny and leave Camelot before he can make things even worse. After giving up his magic so that it might guard the citadel in his absence, he sets out for Ealdor for some much-needed rest. He is pleasantly surprised when Gwaine rides out after him to escort him on the journey. The question is why

    Summary

    As soon as Merlin’s sentence is announced, Lancelot is at his side, ignoring the heavy iron chains as he clasps Merlin’s hands between his own. He speaks, too quiet for Gwaine to hear, and when Merlin shakes his head Lancelot draws him into a hug, Merlin’s bound wrists pressed between their chests.
    He's saying goodbye, Gwaine can see that clear as day, and from the way Merlin looks at him over Lancelot’s shoulder it's clear he expects Gwaine to be next in line.
    Fuck that.
    Let Lancelot handle the teary farewells. Gwaine isn't saying goodbye, because Merlin isn't going anywhere.

    Or: Arthur decides to banish Merlin for his magic. Gwaine decides he isn't about to let that happen.

    Summary

    "I..." Merlin began, trailing off. Arthur waited. "I, um... You see..." He tried again. Arthur felt another stab of resentment rise as his shoulders seemed to slump in resignation. What had Gwaine done to him? He was about to suggest Merlin speak to him alone when Gwaine's expression went completely blank before turning to look at the prince.

    "Ah," He winced and offered a dazzling smile "Hello, your majesty. You caught us at a bad time."

    "Have I?" Arthur asked coolly. Merlin blinked - looking Gwaine over warily.

    "Yes," The knight continued and gestured between himself and Merlin. "We were just about to have some amazing sex. Right in that alcove actually," He said, nodding a bit towards a nook in the wall behind Arthur. "So, if this isn't anything urgent..." He trailed off. Arthur stared.

    He... He had misheard, right? Definitely. For a moment he thought Gwaine had said... No. Absolutely not.

    Or

    Gwaine learns that Merlin has magic. Arthur learns that Gwaine is hopelessly in love with Merlin.

    Summary

    Clara's American father is the ambassador to some such territory that Great Britain probably used to own, but she (and Harry’s undying love for her) is the reason John is getting on a flight at 12:30pm, flying across the second largest ocean in the world, and pretending to be in a perfectly happy, healthy relationship with an undoubtedly perfectly coiffed stranger.

    See, Clara is not only American (and wealthy to boot), she's also best friends with John’s ex-fiancee. Whom she's placed in the wedding party. As Maid of Honor.

    And John just happens to be Best Man.

    Bloody brilliant.
