    Summary

    Merlin has magic,” Uther’s words hit Merlin like a ton of bricks, the spirit disappearing as if it was never there.

    Merlin closes his eyes, letting out the breath he’s been holding. He feels his back hit the door behind him, holding himself up against it. He doesn’t look at Arthur, just waits.

    One breath, two breath, three breath. Nothing.

    Merlin opens his eyes, looking up, half expecting Arthur to have disappeared to alert the guards. Arthur is staring at him, he is stock skill, breath coming out ragged and uneven. He looks crushed and not just from expelling his father’s spirit but that must also have contributed to it.

    “Arthur,” Merlin tries, swallowing when his voice shakes with the anticipation of Arthur’s reaction.

    “Is it true?” Arthur asks, his voice quiet but stern, he still holds the horn tightly in his grip by his side, his knuckles white with the force.

    “Arthur I-“

    “Yes or no, Merlin,” Arthur interrupts, voice suddenly louder in the empty corridor, he looks Merlin in the eye while he nods wordlessly before looking away, “you-you do. You would betray me? You?”
    ---
    In which Arthur find out from spirit Uther about Merlin's magic.

    Set during fifth and sixth year and diverging from canon, this is a mostly funny story about grief, war, awkward guardianship, and the slow, unexpected way Harry and Draco learn how to choose each other, culminating in Sirius Black having to give the absolute worst version of The Talk imaginable.

    Summary

    John Lester. Arthur thought about him carrying that name around everywhere he went and grit his teeth like he was chewing sand. It was his own damned fault for telling John to pick whatever he wanted; he’d had plenty of opportunity to lay down ground rules, it wasn’t John’s fault Arthur had run out of other Lesters quite some time ago with no plans to bolster numbers.

    Not that he’d been much more enthused to gift his name to Bella. Why couldn’t he seem to stop comparing the scrap of the King in Yellow he’d stolen to his dead wife?

     

    (In which John and Arthur take up private investigating together once they find their way out of the Dreamlands and into separate bodies.)
