    Summary

    Merlin frowned, and tried to inhale, but choked on a cough. He opened his mouth, trying to speak but his mouth was sticky and full and he felt warm, warm, warm, warm spilling down down down down…

    The world tilted on its axis a little bit, and Merlin leant into Arthur’s body. Why was the world tilting?

    Arthur’s face shifted from annoyance to horror.

    Summary

    Young wizard Merlin must move from Scotland to London after the death of his mother. He gets a job with family friend Gaius working at Buckingham Palace where he begins to discover secrets about his family and his destiny. Oh, he also meets Prince Arthur which sort of complicates things.

    Prince Arthur is fine. He enjoys reading and football and spending time with friends. He runs a lot. He'll be King one day but whatever. He's fine. Well, apart from his father trying to set him up with every magic user in the world, but he's fine, really. Just fine... Until that skinny, dark-haired, stupidly attractive Scottish boy shows up and throws a whole bucket load of spanners in the works.

    Set in an alternate present where magic is common but still illegal in many countries.

    This work is complete. Not all tags relate to all chapters. Mature rating does not apply to all chapters.

    Summary

    Arthur knows that he must be the reason that he and Gwen aren't able to have a child. They have a few fights, but Arthur makes a few plans, with Gwen's consent, of course, that leads to giving her what she wants and not losing her.

    OR

    Arthur sends Merlin to Gwen's chambers late at night to deliver a gift, not telling him that Merlin is the gift. Gwen is thankful her husband cares so much about her. Merlin spends a lot of time confused.

    (Set near the time that would be the beginning of season 5 and taking a scenic route around and away from it. Canon divergent, so not everything happened the way it did during season 4, but a lot of it did.)

    Summary

    When the Knights go in search of something to save Camelot, they are told that the only way to do so is to sacrifice a virgin. Arthur points out the obvious, that none of his Knights are anywhere near virginal, before someone else pipes up.

    Summary

    A hand grasped his arm, sending a brief thrill down Merlin's nerves as he was forced around to face the person behind him. Armour gleamed in the firelight: supple chainmail glinted, and the solid iron of a pauldron curved lovingly over one broad shoulder. The length of a sword blade separated them. The point hovered, steady and sure, over Merlin's heart, braced to run him through, but he did not care about any of that. He was too busy drinking in the sight of the man before him.

    He could never forget him, no matter how many centuries had passed.

    'Arthur?'


    When Merlin ultimately fails in his destiny, the fading remnants of magic that linger in the modern world fling him not just back in time, but sideways as well. He ends up in a Camelot where all his friends are alive, well and aware of his magic.

    He ends up in a Camelot where his alternate self died almost a year ago.

    Can he, Arthur and their friends still forge the golden age he was once promised, or will grief and suspicion tear them apart?

    Summary

    "I'm not angry at you, dear, it's only the way you were raised. But you admit it yourself, you have no self-control. Well, from now on you won't be able to disobey me. And won't that be better for both of us?"

    Summary

    “Is it hurting you?”

    Vivian let out a hysterical, one-syllable laugh. “Not quite. Whoever designed this was either terribly misinformed about the intended wearer’s anatomy or is having a great laugh right now.”

    “You mean it’s—oh.”

    ~

    King Olaf’s attempt to protect his daughter’s virtue has unintended consequences. Luckily for Lady Vivian, Morgana is more than happy to help her out of this bind.

      Bookmark Notes:

      Chapter 1: Wait, that would imply that Merlin has done the deed with at least 5 people (and more) if he was willing to say so for each of the knights. XD

      Chapter 3: Oh. Ouch. Ok, I should have expected that with the tags. Hm.

      Where did Lancelot go? 😭 He just disappeared.

      And the ending was ok I suppose. The Arthur knew about Merlin's magic all along was kind of just haphazardly added at the end.

    Summary

    Originally posted on FFnet in 2015.

    Original 2015 Description:

    "Y-you said you would come back."

    "I know. And I did."

    "N-no, you didn't."

    Arthur needs to face his biggest mistake.

    Updated 2025 Description for Ao3**:

    Arthur can't take back what he did to Merlin. Gwen won't speak to him, his knights have lost their faith, and Morgana's army marches ever closer to Camelot, but Arthur can't undo what he's done, even though he desperately wishes he could.

    With his sins laid bare for everyone to see and Merlin fighting for his life, Arthur must walk the path of atonement.

    **updated description, but don't worry, this story still has all the typos and grammar problems you knew and loved from 2015! Just for you! I have not fixed any of them! Even though I really wanted to and might eventually publish an edited version in the future!

    Summary

    The heat of Camelot is infamous around all of Albion, it's making Arthur melt into a puddle of goo. It doesn't help that Merlin has ditched his neckerchiefs, those collarbones are a hazard to be reckoned with.

    Or: Arthur's feelings haven't died down, even after six years of being in love with Merlin, maybe something good will come out of this unbearable weather?
