Summary
Dark!fic AU
*Now with beautiful art by LightsAtTintagel!*
The Kingdom of Avalon has fallen. Arthur finds himself the reluctant keeper of the fallen enemy prince.
Destiny had somehow made a mistake.

"You don't have to, you know," Arthur said. "Not all the time."
"What?" came Merlin's clipped response from the corner after a moment.
Arthur turned around to face his captive. "Be this," he gestured at Merlin broadly. "Be defiant, brave...stoic...all the time. It's painful to watch."
Merlin did not answer. Arthur sighed.
"Just...just...when that door closes, when we reach the end of the day. Just allow yourself to relax for just a while." Arthur tried on a small smile, holding his palms up in a gesture of surrender. "I promise I won't tell anybody."

Summary
In Camelot, the splendid city that rules over the twelve districts, the Games are just another annual spectacle to entertain and reaffirm power.
For Merlin, a young man from the harsh and forgotten District 7, being chosen in the harvest means accepting an almost certain death... until he truly meets Arthur Pendragon, son of Queen Ygraine Pendragon and the favorite face of Camelotian propaganda.
Arthur is not a mentor by choice, but his charm and popularity make him the perfect image to accompany the Crown Contenders. Between training sessions and secret conversations, the cold formality transforms into something deeper: an attraction as intense as it is impossible.
In a world where the borders between Camelot and the districts are impassable walls, Merlin and Arthur will have to face not only the threat of the Games but also the laws and prejudices that seek to keep them apart.
Because in Camelot, loving the wrong person can cost more than just your life.

Summary
Arthur is relieved when Balinor the Dragonlord agrees to help, but dismayed when he refuses to come back to Camelot. Instead, Arthur is stuck waiting in the middle of nowhere while Balinor calls the dragon. To make matters worse, Arthur’s idiot manservant clearly has a massive crush on the guy: despite him being a grumpy, straggly, cave-dwelling sorcerer, who makes terrible cabbage pottage, Merlin hasn’t taken his eyes off him! Arthur will tolerate this nonsense for a couple of days, but only because he must save Camelot.

Summary
A life for a life was the deal for Arthur's birth, what does Uther do when he finds out that the deal was a bit more specific than he thought? Why find the loophole of course! If someone born from magic can't have a child normally... well you just have to find magic that can... or in this case, magic himself!
From mood swings, to weddings, to assassins, to love potions and so much more, Merlin's pregnancy isn't going to be smooth sailing for anyone, especially not for Merlin.

Summary
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
What if Merlin's father knew about Hunith's pregnancy before he left? What if he didn't leave? What if Merlin was raised by the druids and he knew about he destiny for years before he arrived to Camelot?
What if Arthur wasn't totally brainwashed by his father? -

Summary
Merlin arrived in Camelot months ago, as a scrawny fourteen-year-old with nothing to his name but magic that would get him killed. Now he's fifteen, apparently made a good impression with the King and as a reward (?) he gets to be manservant to His Royal Pratness, Jr. himself, and is *also* apparently supposed to keep said monarchal clotpole alive long enough to change the world for the better. And be Gaius's apprentice in the healing rooms. And keep his magic tamped down enough to not have his head detached by way of axe, or skin removed, or burned to a blackened husk, or whatever else the glorious King decides is appropriate punishment for a sorcerer that day.
Now, he's only fifteen. But he can totally handle this, right? Easy peasy.Series

OR
Merlin grows up hating Uther and is more than happy to ignore the dragon and his yapping about his destiny.

I will add any trigger warnings here but since I have no idea how this story will go I will try to keep all topics somewhat light but still realistic as I can. Feel free to comment if you think any trigger warnings should be added!

Summary
Je ne fais que continuer deux de mes œuvres préférées qui, je trouve, méritent, à défaut d’une meilleure fin, une suite. (Je ne considère pas The Winchester comme une suite.)
La suite est canon aux deux séries. Fin de Merlin et fin de Supernatural. J’essaie de ramener de nombreux éléments historiques. Ce n’était pas chose aisée de faire correspondre les deux univers, mais je pense ne pas m’être trop trompé.
Il aurait des chapitres plus durs que d'autres, mais je mettrai des avertissements en début de chaque chapitre. J'aborde des sujets assez durs. Ce qui semble inévitable vu les personnages.
Je rends le réalisme de l'époque à Merlin.
Ça sera long et long, mais j'espère que vous apprécierez de me lire autant que j’ai aimé l'écrire.
J'écris essentiellement du point de vue de Dean, Merlin, Arthur.
Je répare les alchimies et je brode de nouvelles prophéties.
Hâte de connaître vos avis, vos suggestions et/ou vos paris pour la suite.
