Summary
Morgana—Morgraine, Morgan, Morgana—can't take her eyes away from the swordsman. Knight. Swordsman. Ghost? Doesn't matter. It has her transfixed, and so he reaches out to touch her shoulder. "It'll be OK," he says, the words slurring. He removes his hand, leaving a bloodied print on her dress.
(There is a lump in his jacket pocket. A little glass bottle. It burns heavy against his chest.)
After a train crash, Merlin is transported back to the middle of the sleeping curse and sets about to fix his mistakes. It would help if he wasn't concussed, though.

Summary
Morgause had clearly been hard at work, having put off their meetings for weeks until now. Morgana was nervous that her sister had given up on her, deemed her to be too much work to save and teach her magic, but if it meant her freedom could be imminent, she felt foolish for worrying so much on such small things.
"Time is of the essence and we must begin preparations as soon as possible," she smirked as she rounded a corner, the shadows concealing whatever she was doing, "so we must commence the spell with a vessel."
"I accept." Morgana proudly lifted her chin up at her sister, no fear, only for that defiance to turn to confusion as she looked at the... hm.
At the chicken Morgause held in her hands.
"This shall be the tether of this spell. Such arcane magics, hidden under the veneer of a simple creature."
"...What?"
__________
Morgause decides to use a slightly less conspicuous vessel for the sleeping spell. This changes a few things.

Summary
When Morgause's plans to overthrow the mad King Uther come to ruin and all on account of a young boy and a flask of poison hemlock, she whisks Morgana away to the Isle of the Blessed whereby to bring her back from the brink of death, and from there to the Dark Tower to subject her to the hallucinogenic mandrake root in order to win her over to her side once and for all. All goes according to plan, and Morgause is more certain than ever of her sister's loyalty to her and her cause, except what if what she brought back is not entirely the Morgana she once held dear and loved?
Based on the prompt: The lost years: year after S2 or S3. Sisterly love, hurt/comfort, emotional hurt/comfort, witchcraft, Old Religion, emotional manipulation, anything

if you hold on tight (you’ll come out of the rubble) by AGirlByAnyOtherName

Summary
His train of thought slipped away as he spotted another knight emerging from the rubble. A hand rested on the floor, untrapped and reaching out for help, while the remainder of him was concealed from view.
Arthur’s heart was in his throat as he carefully made his way over, praying that at least one of his men was still alive.
At the edge of the room, it seemed that the knight had escaped the brunt of the collapse, but there was a fair amount still to clear before Arthur could free him. He moved the rubble encasing his arm first, clearing enough to reveal the sleeve of his jacket— an outfit worn by neither faction of knights.

And here we go, the ill-fated episode. Well, three scenes from the fateful episode.
____
I don’t want to listen to any of that. I don’t want to hear it! Morgana begged silently, almost reaching for her ears. Not this, she didn’t care. She just wanted to leave, to put everything here behind her. The king was an evil monster led by nothing else than the evilness of his own heart. A true monster of this story.Series
