    Summary

    “The Gods have deemed you worthy of returning to the land of the living, Sir Lancelot.” He was sure he could hear bitterness in her words.
    “Why?”
    “Emrys needs you. He is their vessel, and he is drowning under his burden. He will fail without counsel. The Gods have decreed it shall be you who saves him.”

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Lancelot is sent back to Camelot to share Merlin's burden. Arthur thinks they're together romantically and gets jealous. A magic reveal turns their worlds upside down, and Lancelot is left to pick up the pieces. With Gwaine's help of course.

    Canon divergence after the Lamia (4x08) but before Lancelot du Lac (4x09)

     

    OR: the Lancelot return and Mercelot friendship we all deserved.

    UPDATE: This used to be called Lancelot's Return, but I've renamed it. If you were looking for that fic, here it is.

    Summary

    Every year, right before mating season, Camelot holds a great tournament in which the alphas will compete with each other in order to show their strength to the omegas who’ll be looking to choose the perfect mate. After all, it’s not the alpha who chooses the omega, but the omega who chooses the alpha, and Arthur really, really wants Merlin to choose him.

    Summary

    Arthur stood frozen in the corridor of cells. He refused to turn around back to that room of death. He wouldn’t look or even go near the poor forgotten bodies until one man was in his presence alive and well. Because he had to be, he couldn’t be in that mess of burnt flesh and blood. Merlin couldn’t have been captured or held here. It wasn’t true, he didn’t, none of those bodies could be him. But he knew that scrap of fabric. He had given that neckerchief to him himself, it was a birthday present.

    Or

    6 months after banishing Merlin for magic Arthur believes his former manservant has been tortured and murdered. Now 3 years later they finally succeed in repealing the magic ban and are ready to welcome the druids back to Camalot, but when the Druid Lord Emrys has been targeted by Morgana the King sees it as his duty to send aid.
