Summary
"What that, question?" Rocky asks instead of answering the question. He's got his light gun thingy pointed at the screens.
"Hm? You know what the stars are, buddy." Grace doesn't think much of it, but Rocky goes quiet.
"Have not seen like this before."or: constellations as connection

Summary
“Eridians know about sex,” he begins, and I stifle myself before I can say I’ll bet you do because I know he’s trying to go somewhere with this. “But gender, it is more difficult. Erid not have social equivalent, language not have equivalent. We use same pronoun for everything, even not-Eridian things and not-alive things. You say humans, they are bothered by the wrong pronoun; you will be upset that we do not use for you a male pronoun, question?”
I furrow my brow and grin in disbelief. “Rock, no, that’s quite literally the least of my worries right now.”

Summary
“Adrian will understand,” Rocky says confidently. “Will be excited to meet alien. Will be excited to meet person who brought me home.”
“Yeah, and I'm excited to meet them too, but after that!” Is this a translation error? A cultural miscommunication? How is Rocky not getting it? “You're partners. They're not going to want some alien around while you're, like… going on dates and all that.”
“Does not mean no time for Grace.” Rocky’s starting to sound frustrated. Part of me feels bad, but the rest is just as frustrated. “Why think this, question? On Earth, just abandon friends when have mate, question?”
It's so clearly a rhetorical question, to which the answer is obviously supposed to be no, of course not. I freeze up anyway.

Summary
When a horse ran away from the stables, the stable hands got a stern lecture about properly closing the gates.
When the larder was plundered of all cheese, the walls were searched for holes and rat traps placed in all corners.
When the crown jewels were found in the linen cupboards, the guards switched their rotations, and all the laundresses were questioned.
However, it was only when a very familiar book of spells ended up on Arthur’s pillow one morning that Merlin realized something magical might be afoot in Camelot.

Summary
A collection of unrelated and standalone magic reveal one-shots, because my favourite thing about the Merlin fandom are the reveal fics. Most of these will be centered around Arthur and Merlin, but not all. All are set during the canon era.

Summary
Edwin closed his eyes and set his shoulders. “I never thought I would see my mother again,” he told Charles quietly.
“Well, I think that’s pretty reasonable, seeing as you’re dead and all.”
“Yes, Charles. I am dead. And she does not give a damn, so why is she here?”
“Maybe she does, though,” Charles said. “Wouldn’t that be aces? If you could… reconnect somehow?”
Edwin looked Charles up and down. “No,” he said simply.

Summary
"Well," Nina eventually starts, putting a stop to her and Maggie's silent conversation. "Breakups are…difficult. I would know."
Crowley splutters, cheeks surely aflame. "We weren't together."
"It was a near thing though, wasn't it?" Maggie says. "You loved each other very much."

An attempt at a conversation. (He's not quite ready for those.)

Summary
“This wasn’t me, you know,” Crowley says, the words out of his mouth before he’s made the conscious choice to utter them. “Not just the library, but the whole civil war. You know me; I’ve mostly been getting drunk at Bacchanals.”
“I know,” says Aziraphale.

The looming threat of searing pain and the memory of blood pouring out of his mouth is enough of a deterrent to keep Crowley from ever daring to attempt saying the word Love again but nothing -
not even God Herself -
could stop him from showing it.

Summary
Post-season-two. Crowley's moping, Aziraphale wants to fix things, and turns out, there's enough blame to go around.
-----
“You’re being ridiculous.”Crowley very nearly falls over.
Like, actually. He very nearly loses balance for no reason at all and tumbles to the sidewalk next to his car. He’s been playing Aziraphale’s voice in his head for weeks, he’s been trying very hard to drown out the sound of it, in fact, and now suddenly, abruptly—
“What are you doing here,” is all he can think to say. He whirls around, and there he is. On Crowley’s right, standing there like he’d never left. Where he belongs, Crowley’s mind helpfully supplies. He wishes he could punch himself in the brain, knock the thoughts right on out of there.

Summary
I rewrote the story of the ugly duckling, but JD is the ugly duckling. I also turned this in for theater class. The assignment was to rewrite a chosen story as anything you want and then to read it aloud for the class. So, I wrote, submitted, and performed this piece. If you don't understand yet, I have worked many a moon on this. It is my child.
Also, some of the characters go to different schools in this work of art. It'll make sense when you read it.

Summary
"Come on, attack me as if you mean it."
Merlin adjusts his footing into a defensive posture, expecting his taunt to rise something in Arthur. It does. Apart from his words, his eyes are heavy on Arthur’s, his lips red and smug, his hands clenching and unclenching, ready to cast.
A soft breeze ruffles his hair. Arthur swings his sword.

Summary
It takes a month after Arthur lifts the ban on magic for him to adjust to the fact that the people around him might actually start to use it. Even stranger is when Merlin learns some from Gaius and, oddly enough, has a bit of a knack for it.
In which Arthur is obtuse, Merlin is trying his best, and Gwaine, Elyan and Leon don't understand why they can't learn to light fires as easily as Merlin did.
