Summary
When a deeply-closeted Arthur Pendragon finally earns a spot in Camelot's first XI, he's dead set on breaking records, not one of sport's last taboos. But life, like football, is a funny old game, and sometimes the only way up is out. Especially once he realises he's arse over tit for the new physio.
A queer Arthurian tale of courage, love, and football.

Summary
Written for October's Theme of the Month: Pretend Relationship
The prompt: Arthur and Merlin have been best friends for practically forever, to the point where a lot of people automatically assume they're a couple.
But they're not, and can't seem to grasp why people think they're in a relationship. Other friends have matching sweaters and socks, don't they?
Then Merlin wins a chance for a free skiing vacation for two, and immediately invites Arthur along. The only problem? Merlin missed the fine line that it's a couples exclusive resort.
Thanks to snuggling in a cabin in front of a fire as a snowstorm rages outside, it might be time that they admit that what they share is more than just friendship.- Language:

Summary
Modern AU: Everyone keeps assuming that Merlin and Arthur are together, so as a joke, they start pretending it's true. And then, suddenly, it is.
A story of giant teddy bears, meddling sisters, nonexistent homoerotic subtext (or is it?), and accidentally falling in love.

Summary
A modern magical comedy very loosely based on Ugly Betty. Publishing king Uther Pendragon has had enough of his playboy son seducing every female assistant he has ever had so he hires Merlin, a man he is sure Arthur will never sleep with. Merlin would be more insulted by this fact if he wasn’t so busy trying to juggle his duties, save Arthur's skin from ruthless fashionistas and keep his magic a secret at the same time. Expect appearances by oil-lathered knights, the occasional mad druid, a perverted Will and a mental caretaker who lives in the basement and keeps harping on about coins and destiny.

Summary
Arthur was tipped back against the wall, his mouth open for breath and staring at the small arrow-slit window over Merlin's head, trying to work out how it could possibly be that good with Merlin, of all people.
