Summary
Steve has his life in order, okay. He goes to wizard college, even if he can't technically do magic. He has his own apartment, even though it's small and dinky and kind of gross, and forgets to exist sometimes, and might also be alive? Plus, he has a crush on the hot cyborg in unit 404 who cooks fiendishly good breakfast foods, and may or may not have some kind of weird connection to the sentient building they live in. He's not sure.
He's dealing, all right, his life is in tip-top condition, or it was until an eldritch monstrosity called the Hydra started posing as a real estate company to try and buy over his new home.
He's really pissed about that.
(The one where Steve is an angry millennial wizard, Sam is a Disney prince, Natasha is a shapeshifter, and Bucky is a spoiler.)

Summary
On Camelot, the base planet of the Albion Intergalactic Alliance, the people have a unique gift where the name of their soulmate appears on their arm. Finding one’s soulmate could be as easy as taking a shuttle over to the next planet or it could take years for destiny to find its way to their side of the galaxy. Ten years ago, Ambassador Arthur Pendragon found out the name on his arm wasn’t from any known language in the galaxy. He hadn’t had much faith in love ever since.

Summary
He’s not sure when his life became so entwined with Merlin’s. Perhaps it was that first day on the train, seeing that pale-faced little boy by the sweets trolley. Their first potions lesson together, their fight in the Great Hall, when that Griffin was rampaging in the forest.
He hadn’t known then; you don’t see someone’s face for the first time and think ‘one day I will not be able to live without you.’
But Arthur thinks it now. He’s been thinking it for quite some time.
Arthur and Merlin have always been joined at the hip, despite the fractious start to their friendship. Arthur's not sure when it became something more, or if it's always been there. But when he heads to Merlin's for Christmas, it becomes too huge to deal with - Gwaine's new interest in Merlin, Morgana's strange distance and the odd whisper that calls to Arthur in the middle of the night...

It wasn't the reaction Seth had expected, although in retrospect maybe he should have. Iris wasn't just a new person, but a new concept. It was natural that the AIs would find her novel.

Summary
Then, a realisation hits him, sudden and sharp, and Arthur freezes mid-motion. His breath catches in his throat as the pieces fall together. That’s what had rattled Merlin so deeply… It wasn’t the shock of becoming a servant to a prince or the brief jolt when their skin brushed near the birthmark. No, Merlin hadn’t flinched from a simple spark of static earlier…. It was the mark. This mark. Arthur’s birthmark. Merlin knows what it means.
On Merlin's first day as Arthur's servant, he discovers that Arthur has an unusual birthmark. Is his subsequent weird behaviour linked to superstition or something much deeper – something Arthur has yet to learn? And what is Arthur to do with this weird pull he feels towards Merlin?

Summary
Set after the Merlin Series 5 Finale "Diamond of the Day".
Canon Compliant. In Character. Arthur Pendragon Returns.
Cover art by Lao-Pendragon------
For many long years Merlin waited.
For the other part of his soul, for the other half of his life. He was born to serve Arthur. So that meant he was also born to wait. Even if it took a thousand years. Even if the wait seemed never to end.
Until one day, suddenly, it did.
When Arthur stumbles from the Lake of Avalon 1,500 years after his death, he finds a world unlike the one he knew. Faced with the loss of everyone he loved, and the threat of impending prophecy, Arthur must learn what it means to be not just a king, but the Once and Future King. Merlin does all he can to guide him, even as he struggles to hide his love for his king, and his fear of losing him again.
Story includes sass, banter, horseplay, & True Love.

Summary
“I never believed that you would betray me,” Arthur says, because Merlin knows him, even if the same might not be true the other way around. Merlin could tell when he was lying, when he was lashing out to protect himself, long before a bond tore down all the defences Arthur so carefully erected around himself. “Do not pretend that you ever believed me capable of truly hating you. I could not, no matter how much I may want to.”
The way Merlin’s face twists reveals that there is another story there, and words echo within Arthur’s head, guttural and ancient—a half cannot truly hate that which makes it whole.
He wants to laugh at the truth of it, at the absurdity of it all. Here they are, a prince and a servant, Uther Pendragon’s son and one of the most powerful sorcerers to ever walk the earth—caught up in a fight over who possesses more devotion, who is going to ruin themself for the other’s sake first.
One hot summer day and an ill-advised kiss leave Arthur with an incomplete soul bond, panic about all his secrets coming to light, and the question of why Merlin is so afraid of Uther. Actually, scratch that—why is Merlin afraid of him?

Summary
“You,” Arthur began pointedly, “are a sodomite.”
In the few seconds it took Merlin to process the linguistic distinction between sorcerer and sodomite his mouth had already jumped two steps ahead of him and admitted, “yes.”
Then, when Merlin finally realised Arthur had jumped to the wrong conclusion, he said again, firmer, “yes! A sodomite. I… like men.”
OR: five times Arthur kisses Merlin, and Merlin gives him an excuse about why he can’t sleep with him + one time Arthur kisses Merlin and he finally tells the truth

Summary
Arthur could never remember the exact moment he fell in love with Merlin. Maybe because he always has been. Or maybe it was such a gradual fall, he didn’t even notice until he’d hit the bottom.
And here he is, Crown Prince of Camelot, pining after his own manservant like a blubbering fool.
The truth is Arthur had been up for half an hour. But he knows by now, if he waits long enough, Merlin will start tugging on his arm, dragging him out of the bed.
It’s stupid. It’s a stupid thing to want. It’s a stupid thing to look forward to each morning. A small, nimble hand around his wrist, pulling him into the cold of the day, and usually, onto the floor.
But Arthur doesn’t get the privilege of touch very often. That’s what it is, isn’t it? A privilege?
