Merlin: A Hogwarts History by Mamalazzer

Summary
After spending the better part of a thousand years as a professor at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Merlin had given up hope that he would ever see Arthur again. Then Christmas 1993 happened and Sybil Trelawney wheezed out a prophecy about the return of the Once and Future King.
As ecstatic as Merlin is about the news, he wishes it wasn't because they were slowly approaching the end of all times, with magic itself beginning to fade from the land. Merlin also wishes Sybil had warned him how much more of a brat Arthur would be as a modern teenager, especially because this incarnation of him - terrifyingly - seems to have magic, too.
Somewhere in the Forbidden Forest, Merlin can hear Kilgharrah laughing at him.
Featuring nosy portraits with too much time on their hands, reincarnated knights with a penchant for Quidditch and such a supreme amount of Pendragon prattishness that it is practically a character on its own.

Summary
“Arthur, you have like five fan clubs. You were named sexiest man alive two years in a row. You are an action film star, who also does romcoms. You were John Constantine in that Justice League film, a part if you remember, that was supposed to be a minor role but you were so brilliant, they made a spin-off movie about you! You’re one of the hottest names in the industry, of course, they are going to make a big deal about this.”
“So, you think I’m hot?” Arthur teased with a smirk.
Merlin groaned and pushed him away. “You are literally the worst.”

Merlin tells Arthur of his magic when he had the chance. Arthur takes it better than expected and sets out to save Camelot from Uther's tyranny.
Spotted a continuity mistake in the show, saw it as an opportunity to rewrite canon with Merlin/Arthur slash. Attempts at historical accuracy made.

Summary
Arthur survives the battle of Camlann but discovers that Merlin is a sorcerer when Merlin kills Morgana to save Arthur’s life. Feeling angry and betrayed, Arthur banishes Merlin.
Five years later, in a war-torn Camelot, Arthur is finally ready to talk to Merlin, and they realize that they can only fulfill the prophecy together, side by side.
The next morning, they wake up in the past, in their young bodies.

“Someone or something has sent us back in time, right to the beginning, with all our memories,” Merlin says, and it’s only now that it dawns on him what that truly means. “Just imagine everything we could do, everything we could change for the better. We could make everything right this time.”
Arthur hesitates for a moment. “Can we even change the future?”
“Yes, I think we can”, Merlin answers with confidence and new-found hope in his voice.

Summary
It's probably for the best that Arthur should start recording these new memories, after he's been resurrected from a long sleep in Avalon. And so he does, putting thoughts and experiences in one place as they travel through Europe, Asia, and other continents. From the basest desires consisting of the pornographic to the grandeur of embarking a fulfilling journey with family. To the exquisite gift of time that destiny has remarkably given them.
Like for example: favorite modern world hobbies - taking photos and creating porn videos featuring a willing dark-haired, blue-eyed sexy boy/man who's only too happy to do absolutely anything for him now that he's back in his life; theatre and dinner dates in London; eating Steak; making and raising babies; and just being alive without the pressures of being a King. Oh and loving and being loved in return. In this new life, there's no room for regrets - just an endless amount of time to live life to the fullest.

Summary
After losing Arthur, Merlin semi-accidentally travels back in time. In an attempt to change the future, Merlin takes Morgana under his wing and trains her in magic, all the while trying to pretend he's not still in love with an Arthur who doesn't remember that they used to be married (in the future, that is), keeping an eye out for Morgause, and juggling Camelot's run of the mill crises. You know, the usual manservant stuff.
Aka two idiots make a mess for 55k lmao.

“If I do this, if I cast this spell, there’s no telling where it will take you.”
There’s only one thing Merlin needs to know. “Will Arthur be there?”
Freya nods hesitantly. “I believe so, yes.”
And that’s all that matters.
“Then do it.”

Summary
Merlin’s been keeping a close eye on the Riddle boy. It’s the flirting with the Balance that sets Riddle apart, makes him Merlin’s business. Merlin’s never gone out of his way to involve himself. When Riddle drags a baby boy into his mess, though, it’s too far. It’s a little too close to that life-for-a-life business. A little too close to Queen Ygraine’s death. Arthur agrees.
They’re not the only ones watching. Albus Dumbledore has inserted himself and is already deconstructing the situation, putting measures into place and making plans. The boy is taken care of. Merlin and Arthur make some plans of their own.

Merlin and Arthur take note the night Harry Potter cheats death (the first time). When the boy turns 11, they decide it's high time they went back to Hogwarts.Series

Summary
A Modern day Merlin AU set at the University of St Andrews, featuring teetotal kickboxers, secret wizards, magnificent bodyguards of various genders, irate fairies, imprisoned dragons, crumbling gothic architecture, arrogant princes, adorable engineering students, stolen gold, magical doorways, attempted assassination, drunken students, shaving foam fights, embarrassing mornings after, The Hammer Dance, duty, responsibility, friendship and true love...
This story was inspired by the thought of Prince William of Wales (and indeed the current Max von Hapsburg) studying at the University of St Andrews; it is also, as the title suggests, at least a little inspired by the operetta 'The Student Prince'.
Grateful thanks to Lamardeuse and DarkEmeralds for Beta and cheerleading!
::2019 note: This story was written BEFORE the TV show introduced the character of Gwaine. It's not that I can't spell, or that I'm perversely writing him out of character - I incorporated other characters from Arthurian legend (Kay, Gawain etc) into my story, and lacking prophetic abilities, my versions naturally don't mesh with the versions subsequently introduced into the show.::

Summary
Arthur has always had distant dreams of leaving Camelot. They were never more than a wistful fantasy, at least once he grew up.
Finding out about Merlin’s magic changes everything though, and not only because Arthur would do more to keep Merlin safe than he cares to admit. What follows are secrets upon secrets, allowing the dreams to slip back in as all his father’s lies unravel around him. Slowly but surely, Camelot feels less like a home and more like a gilded cage, and Arthur isn’t so certain anymore whether he’s the right person to carry this legacy. If he even wants to.
One final secret, one opportunity, and suddenly the dreams aren’t mere dreams anymore. Merlin wouldn’t be Merlin if he didn’t follow wherever Arthur goes, and as they try to outrun Uther’s manhunt for them, they have to learn to live a life that’s about more than duty, other’s expectations, and a destiny that has never once cared for them.
Or: Arthur long since expected that one day, he might have to flee Camelot with Merlin. He just never thought that he would be the reason.

Summary
Navigating life events that turn his world upside down, including his ascension to the throne and a revelation that rocks him to his core, Arthur's ever-evolving relationship with Merlin becomes the most important of his life. No one ever said love was easy.
“I would die before I hurt you,” Arthur said, his voice strangled. “I would kill anyone who ever tried to do you harm and it pains me to think that you could ever fear me.”
“I don’t understand,” Merlin said breathlessly. “You’re the king, you – ”
“I’m not standing here as a king, Merlin!” Arthur shouted, his voice breaking as he did so. “I’m standing here as a man, a man who believed he knew you completely, a man who thought you were the one constant in his life, a man who thought…who thought you were his,” he finished, horrified to feel tears pricking his eyes.

Summary
After losing Arthur, Merlin is caught up in an endless cycle of guilt, grief, and sadness. No longer Arthur’s protector, he's adrift with no sense of purpose or belonging. Was he just the magic born to serve his king? Was he Emrys, the greatest sorcerer to ever walk the earth? Was he truly the Last of the Dragonlords? Merlin decides to leave Camelot and he sets out on a quest to discover who Balinor was and just what it means to be a Dragonlord. He leaves behind everyone and everything he has ever loved and sets out to find answers. The journey soon leads him to a huge piece of the puzzle, a half-brother named Drake, and a new home in a village of magic users.
In Avalon, faced with a quest of his own, Arthur soon learns just how much Merlin had done for him...sacrificed for him. He realizes that no man, no matter how noble or common, can know his destiny and that the people who walked beside him were there for a purpose...to guide, protect and love. No man stands alone in the fight for what is good and right, and the one man he had taken for granted and treated so horribly was the other half of his soul. He would give anything for the chance to tell Merlin just what he means to him.
