When fraternal twins, Merlin and Niall, go missing, it's down to their brother, Gwaine, and all their friends to find them before it's too late.
-----
"...Gwaine's gonna come get us, okay? We just gotta hold on until he does." Merlin hoped he was coming across as confident, but by the look his twin just gave him, it had actually sounded desperate. "Gwaine will get to us, Ni. When has he ever let us down?" Niall just nodded, eyes pinching shut as pain rocketed through his skull.

Summary
After being together for almost a year, Arthur realises he still doesn't know much about the primary school Merlin works at and decides it's high time he came for a visit. How was he to know that Merlin hadn’t been kidding when he’d said he actually taught magic? At an honest-to-God magic school! Wasn't that a job for old, decrepit, white-bearded, pointy-hat-wearing wizards, after all? And who’d even heard of buildings with no entrances, birds that talk, and great unmentionable destinies? More importantly, what exactly has he gotten himself into?

Summary
I’m terrible at summaries and I’ll probably come back to this but basically Arthur’s in the mafia and Merlin’s his secret lover who he would do anything to protect…and he does.
‘Merlin shook off Arthur’s suit jacket and threw it on the floor. He let out a breathy laugh when he heard it knock a few things over.
“I’ll get the blood stains out for you tomorrow, no need to waste a good jacket on a terrible man.”
That, that right there was one of the reasons Arthur loved Merlin. Oh yes he was smart, hilarious, too witty for his own good and one of the most beautiful men Arthur had ever seen. He was also the only person in the world who still kissed him when he had blood in his hair, who called him sweetheart ten minutes after seeing him kill seven men, who washed the blood from his clothes personally because he always wanted him to look nice. He was the only one who loved him for him.’
OR
5 times Arthur protects Merlin and no one knows why, and 1 time Arthur protects Merlin and makes it clear. -

Uther abandons Arthur at birth. He remains in Tintagel and is raised by a good Nimueh and educated by Catha warriors. The forgotten prince becomes a talented fighter, but he remains lonely and unloved. He is kind and noble, and without Uther's influence he never becomes a prat. A new prophecy emerges, one that still involves Emrys. Once of age, Arthur leaves Tintagel and joins with Emrys; together, they discover their shared destiny. This story is more about character than action. It is about a journey to find purpose and love.

Summary
Arthur lives and returns to Camelot, with Merlin -and his magic, at his side. Merlin is now Arthur's advisor and discovers Guinevere to be unfaithful. What's he to do? Spare Arthur the misery or keep it hidden because of what that conniving dragon had told him about her being queen? He's already promised Arthur no more secrets.
"Without a second thought Arthur had agreed to this ritual, not even glancing her way, but she had agreed, later. The father to take the son’s betrothed to bed before his marriage; to “gaze” upon her and approve of her virtue for the son.
Merlin had said he didn’t like it. Then again, the warlock didn’t like lots of things, apparently, which he had never mentioned before The Reveal, which yes, was capitalised on paper, the one he personally titled for a sulking Merlin to write all his sins upon. He always thought Merlin liked polishing his sword… considering how obsessed he was with it." -

Summary
Merlin is bored - being on earth for 1500 years does, apparently, come with it's problems. So, naturally, he applies for a teaching position at Hogwarts, only to be absorbed into the chaos that's got the boy with the lightning scar's face plastered all over it.
Oh, and there’s a dragon. A suspiciously human-shaped dragon.

Summary
Someone in the Camelot (Merlin) has rooted out a spy on the council. This anonymous person (who is obviously Merlin) put this accusation into a long letter, full of evidence from a thorough investigation and infiltration of the spy's circle within the staff. Arthur is remarkably impressed with this mystery detective (again, Merlin) and becomes set on uncovering their identity.
Merlin didn't think things would get out of hand. He only wanted to get rid of the spy publicly and legally, so he forewent the magic and decided to conduct a counterintelligence mission for months to gather evidence the old-fashioned way—like anyone would! But suddenly Arthur is searching for him, and magic or not, he learned a long time ago to stay in the shadows.
George is so tired. It is so obvious. King Arthur is disappointingly unobservant, and George cannot take this much longer.
