Summary
They said the wizard of the woods could give you anything you wanted.
What Arthur wanted, more than anything, was to give up control. Let go of his burdens. Be calm.
The wizard's idea seemed preposterous at first, but what harm could trying it do? After all, it wasn't like they knew each other.

Summary
When a sorcerer captures Arthur, the Knights, and Merlin, he seeks revenge for Uther's wrongdoings by wanting to give Arthur a potion that will make him endure the pain of the worst wound received by everyone in their party, while everyone gets to see the vision of the wound being inflicted. 7 painful wounds. It's too much for one man.
Merlin knows he can't let his King take that. Will the sorcerer let him take his place? What happens when the Knights see Merlin's most painful wound? How does one survive a Serket sting?

Summary
“I love him.”, Arthur said this before he had a chance to wince at his words. The moment froze between them. Arthur had so many regrets, he would love to just fling himself out of the window right now. But then Merlin's sacrifice really was in vain.
“You what?”, Uther's eyes were wide in shock. Maybe a little disgust at the prospect of a noble liking a servant.
Arthur swallowed down his pride. He had just thought about what was more important than pride and honor. He could make this sacrifice. 'For Merlin.', he thought.
Because life is always more important. Arthur closed his eyes to brace himself for what he was going to say next.
Just so he wouldn't have to see his father's reaction.“He's my consort.”, he added and almost broke at his own words. Lying was always hard. But nothing had ever compared to this.

Summary
Merlin has secrets.
Some of them more obvious than others.
But when his family comes to town, declaring him their royal daughter and Arthur's fiance.... things get a little out of his control.
Good thing Uther Pendragon isn't as much of a horrible king as you'd expect.Warning: Mentions of transphobia, and good Uther Pendragon lmao.
Also Merlin has some personal issues about periods.
Edit: Deadnaming-------------------
Edit: In the story, Uther referrs to Merlin as "being cursed at birth to be born in the wrong body". To clarify: Being trans is NOT a curse.
I did not reedit the part, despite being made aware of the problem, because the reaction still fits to Uther's character and it may still be true to some people.
You're valid and beautiful people and the only curse you're under is other people's ignorance and blatant hatred against you.
I apologize for my mistake.A.N.:// The title is ironic. Because that's what Gwaine calls Arthur at the beginning.... and the end. But you'll see.

The smile Merlin gave him when he introduced himself was so big, so honest, that he didn't seem to be keeping any secrets (and keep a secret he must have if he was using magic so near Camelot).

Summary
Rose walker hadn't initially noticed that The King of Dreams reacted to the world around him more than she thought he did. Whilst getting to know him took time, now that she had him figured out she saw her uncle was good at hiding old wounds.
It's easy enough to smash a glass by accident no matter who or what you are.
Aka. The Rose comforts a touch starved Dream fic that I couldn't find myself, so I wrote it instead.

Summary
Dream gets roped into being a subject for Rose's photography class project, and his picture ends up in an exhibition at her university. The same university where Hob happens to work in, and of course, he sees it. After almost choking, he decides to investigate - there's no way this is his old friend...or maybe there is?
He finally gets his answers, and gets to see another side of Dream - one caring and soft, bending to Rose and Jed's every whim. It's awfully endearing/
or hob sees a hot pic of dream, investigates, pines, and then gets to see dream being cute with kids

Summary
Hob gets stood up in 1989. Amidst his hurt and confusion, he has one thing clear: if his Stranger wants to be like that, to leave him alone and dispose of him as if 600 years of knowing each other is nothing? Fine. He can go right ahead.
But his Stranger is not going to have the last word, not this time. Even if he has to track him down himself to make it so.
Who would have thought that tracking him would be so hard?
Or: Hob fucks around, and finds out. Eventually.
Dream is rescued from the fishbowl and then some plot
Edit: 4/7/25 Chapters 1-7 just got heavily edited, fixing major errors and typos

Summary
It came sudden. His friends head snapped around, fanthomless eyes staring directly at him. One pale hand reached out and took hold of his arm, fingers as long as spider-legs which dug themselves painfully into his flesh.
“Find me.”
Hob awoke with sweat sticking to his brow, breath caugh in his lungs, with shaking hands he pushed back his fringe.
And stared.
There on his arm, just below his left elbow and clearly visible on his tan skin were indents, a row of half-moons, remnants from spindly fingers with long nails, leaving in their wake quickly fading marks.
What if Dream of the Endless had retained a small fraction of his power while being held captive by Roderick Burgess?
What if his power had been just enough to keep sending small messages to the only man that had ever dared to call him “friend”?- Language:

Homelander brushed his fingers through Hughie's hair. “I love that new shampoo you're using,” he said brightly, resting his chin on top of Hughie's head and inhaling deeply. “It's earthy and fresh, clean. It smells like when it rains for the first time after a dry spell. What's that called again?"
