    Summary

    While Merlin knew Camelot was one of the worst kingdoms to be a magic user, he couldn’t refuse his mother. But Merlin was a clumsy idiot.

    So, after a horrible day where he fought the prince, met a dragon and finally was caught using magic to save the life of his uncle, Merlin found himself in the pyre. On his first day.

    But another thing about Camelot was also true.

    This other tradition was almost a joke. The foot-of-the-gallows marriage.

    When presented, it was carried out until the end, treated as something serious. The man being executed would be saved by marrying the woman who asked for his hand even before he could descend from the gallows. His crimes would be pardoned as long as he continued to be married to her, and they would have the opportunity to begin a new life in a blank slate.

    But it has never occurred when the crime was considered serious, so no one had to put the tradition in a balance against the law.

    So, when the executioner lit the torch and the prince shouted, “Stop the execution! I’ll marry him.” no one knew what to do.

    Or

    Series rewrite where merthur is married since the beginning.

    "So," Arthur says, "are you powerful, then?"

    "Um," Merlin says. "I can hold my own."

    Arthur snorts. The day Merlin can hold his own, he'll eat his sword.

    Summary

    Alberto sat in bed, absorbed in a photo album. He did that a lot these days. Birthdays. Weddings. Births. Milestones of all stripes. Meaningless moments of joy or candor or something indescribable but still worth taking a snapshot of. It was better than just sitting around bored. And he was bored most days.

    Summary

    While Giulia and her husband are off on a business trip, their six-year-old daughter, Maria, spends the week in the sea-side, sun-drenched village of Portorosso.
    Although she’s meant to be in the hands of her grandfather, his age and busy schedule dictates that she’s actually much better off in the hands of her uncle and a very intriguing “family friend.”
