Summary
A year after their harrowing rescue from the clutches of their kidnappers, Prince of Wales Arthur Pendragon, and Prime Minister's son Merlin Emrys, accompany King Uther on a diplomatic visit to America, then head off to Disney World. It's supposed to be a simple publicity tour turned vacation.
Which begged the question of why Morgana had seemed so apprehensive of Arthur 'doing' something while they were here. She her vision had been one of the cryptic ones, so all she could tell Merlin was to try to keep his head down for the trip.
And that even though she knew he’d try, he wouldn’t succeed.Series

Summary
His mind, Stephen found as he slipped back to consciousness, was lost in a fog full of muddled thoughts and memories. They flickered away like so many scattered fireflies, disappearing into the mist just as he was about to catch one.
It took a moment to hold properly onto something; when he did, the first coherent thought he was able to process was, I'm alive. This is unexpected.
Stephen finds himself at the tender mercies of Tony Stark, which... turn out to be surprisingly tender, all things considered. As he recovers from his near-death experience, he becomes acquainted with the eccentric billionaire known as "Iron Man" even as he tries to figure out the best way to get away from his hospitality. He has a job to complete, after all.
Directly follows the events of the first story within this series, "Within the Shadows".

Summary
“Where are you taking him?”
“He’s wanted for crimes against the Empire.”
“That doesn’t tell me where you’re taking him.”
The captain raises his chin in clear challenge, taking a step toward Fjord, hand on the hilt of his sword. “You’re right. It doesn’t. You keen to join him?”
He knows what he should do.
He should back off, feign apology, humility, let them take Caleb to who knows where, and do who knows what to him while he and the rest of the Nein figure out a strategy, a plan. A way to get Caleb back safely with minimal threat to the group.
He should do that, but then he looks over to Caleb, in the dirt on his knees, eyes wide and frantic and scared, and the words are out of his mouth before he can stop them.
“Perhaps I am.”

Summary
After Morgana admits to having magic, Merlin and Gwen promise to help her. But when a tragic accident lands Morgana and Merlin in a prison cell, can Morgana trust herself to save them both? And can she forgive herself before she loses the woman she loves?
Or
Merlin's pretty useless (but at least he can pronounce the spells), Morgana is a perfectly functional human being (unless Gwen is involved), Gwen is missing, Arthur has a sword, and prison cells are apparently great places for self-reflection.
Oh, and Morgana deserved better, so I'm giving her better.

Summary
They were, most of them, five-ish or six-ish when the ships came- different ships than usual. Not garbage ships or prison ships: they came for all of the villain kids. Mal and Uma and Jay and Harry and Gil and Carlos and Evie were set apart from the rest and taken to a facility called "Auradon Remedial Goodness Observational School for Uniquely Bad Children". There, the fairy was supposed to make them good.
(I experimented with a different style of prose for the first chapter.)

Summary
In hopes of escaping a vicious monster, Merlin reveals his magic by teleporting Arthur and himself deep into the forest. The injured king is anything but forgiving, and it may cost him everything in end.
Or
"Arthur watched in suspended horror as Merlin picked his dirty jacket up and shrugged it on, fixing his stained scarf over the collar. Stains of Arthur's blood he could tell wouldn’t wash out at the river where Merlin must have rinsed it off. After Merlin saved his life. Again.
Reality stabbed Arthur like a thousand daggers to his stomach and he brutally realized Merlin was walking away from him without another word."

Summary
Arthur could see his father glaring down - face red and eyes narrowed as he looked at Merlin with clear distaste.
"Once this over, sorcerer...I’ll burn you."
"You’ve already tried that," Merlin’s voice answered and Arthur had to bite his fist to keep from making any noise. “You need to accept you can’t kill me… Hand me that blanket, please.”
“I’m sure there must be some method… Beheading?”
“No, we tried that.”
“Hanging?”
“I just sort of... Swung there, remember?”
There was another pause.
“I should have made you keep that dragon below the castle so I could feed you to it.”
“Kilgharrah? He won’t eat me, but if you want to torture me than making me listen to his nonsense for an hour might do it.” Merlin said and there was a soft sigh from the other end of the room. “I’m glad you agreed to help me though. Usually I have to do the grunt work of saving Arthur myself.”
“I can’t wait to kill you.”
Or
Uther finds out about Merlin’s magic, but can’t seem to kill him. Merlin is just trying to protect Arthur. They become a begrudgingly effective duo. Arthur doesn't understand why they think he isn't noticing this.

“I can never trust magic, not when it has taken so much from me.”
