    Summary

    A Modern day Merlin AU set at the University of St Andrews, featuring teetotal kickboxers, secret wizards, magnificent bodyguards of various genders, irate fairies, imprisoned dragons, crumbling gothic architecture, arrogant princes, adorable engineering students, stolen gold, magical doorways, attempted assassination, drunken students, shaving foam fights, embarrassing mornings after, The Hammer Dance, duty, responsibility, friendship and true love...

    This story was inspired by the thought of Prince William of Wales (and indeed the current Max von Hapsburg) studying at the University of St Andrews; it is also, as the title suggests, at least a little inspired by the operetta 'The Student Prince'.

    Grateful thanks to Lamardeuse and DarkEmeralds for Beta and cheerleading!

    ::2019 note: This story was written BEFORE the TV show introduced the character of Gwaine. It's not that I can't spell, or that I'm perversely writing him out of character - I incorporated other characters from Arthurian legend (Kay, Gawain etc) into my story, and lacking prophetic abilities, my versions naturally don't mesh with the versions subsequently introduced into the show.::

    Summary

    As a Galaxy-class vessel the USS McKinley had no lack of room; the ship had a standard crew complement of 1,012 and could carry up to 10,000 passengers, yet finding these moments of privacy proved excessively difficult. Between his busy schedule in sickbay and Sebastian skipping from engineering to the helm, their shifts rarely lined up.

    Since Ensigns ranked lowest in the pecking order little to no thought went to their convenience.

    [Sebastian and Blaine are both Ensigns aboard the USS McKinley, a starship dedicated to explore life in the galaxy. They steal whatever time they can in between their duties.]

    Summary

    “How’d you find this place?” the boy asks, swallowing another spoonful of ice cream.

    “I liked the name. Serendipity. It’s one of my favorite words. It’s a nice sound for what it means. A fortunate accident.” He shakes his head. “But I don’t believe in accidents. I believe fate’s behind everything.”

    A smile tugs at the same corner of the boy’s mouth, and it’s wholly distracting all over again. "Oh, you do?"

    [Can one crazy night with a complete stranger change your life forever? Does the power to change fate lie within your own hands? Will the choices you make lead you back to the person you’re meant to be with?]
