Summary
When Arthur organises a romantic picnic for Merlin and Leon, the consequences are far wider than he ever expects.
~~~
"How do I find this Cup of Life?" Leon asks, because action and movement and making plans to save Merlin is much easier than wrestling with the knowledge that Merlin may very well have been a sorcerer the whole time they’ve known him. A sorcerer who regularly dealt with Arthur's tantrums and socks.
"It is more a question of the cup finding you. The cup lives on the Isle of the Blessed, a place that cannot be reached without magic, guarded by wyverns. It will be no mere journey to get there. You will tested along the way, in every way magic can think to do so. And only with pure intentions and a clear conscience will the cup allow you to take it."

Summary
Overall, they lived together throughout everything, their love everlasting as they stayed in the spot they'd claimed all those millenia ago when Arthur was banished and Merlin went with him, a testament to how absolutely enamoured they were with each other.

Summary
It’s been a few months since both graduated high school, and since they started dating. After an awkward confession junior year in June before they were out for summer, Merlin confessed. So casually too. Arthur was rightfully taken aback but after some long discussions, and undoing the works of homophobia, Arthur accepted Merlin. They took things slow, and by the time they graduated, it was time to celebrate their one year anniversary.
Arthur had met Merlin’s parents – Hunith and Balinor – but now it was Merlin’s turn to meet Arthur’s. That’s the thing though: Arthur’s scared shitless of his father’s reaction. Morgana, his half-sister, knows about them and planned together a small dinner for Arthur to both come out and introduce Merlin.
I mean, how bad can Uther’s reaction be?

Summary
Arthur asks Merlin to dance with him at a feast, Uther is not happy about it, Arthur has problems with his self worth, and Merlin comforts him. Basically just a lot of angst and fluff. Very self indulgent on my part
This is my first published fic ever so here goes nothing I guess. Also titles are hard

Summary
Arthur is at Pride, and it’s great! Just wonderful, really.
Except that it isn’t.
Or Arthur doesn’t enjoy the crowds and the noise and the way that calibrating other people’s identities forces him to think of his complicated relationship to his own.

Summary
"Indeed I do. I saw your friend on the news this morning, by the way."
"But you never watch the local news." And there's no way something like that would've made it to the national news.
His father shrugs, a dangerous gleam in his eye. "I'm very sorry. Perhaps we should send Nollar round with some flowers. He lives at 12 Excalibur Drive, doesn't he?"
Arthur freezes. There's no way he could possibly know where Merlin lives unless… would he really be that cruel?
He catches his father's eye and reads the threat there, clear as day. Uther did this. And if he knows what's good for the both of them, he'll do as he's told and forget about Merlin.
"Then again, he's probably got enough 'get well soon's. Don't you agree?"
"Yes, sir."Uther threatens Merlin's life to force his son to obey him. But Arthur isn't about to just let that stand.

In which gay relationships were outlawed when Uther freaked out about Arthur possibly not having an heir after Ygraine dies and Arthur realizes that he doesn't like Merlin kissing Will, and not because it's illegal.
