Summary
Merlin snaps and decides to leave Camelot. The knights won't have it. Cue Arthur is dying in his arms and naming him heir.
or
"You were worried." He drawled.
And that did it. That really did. He would strangle Arthur Pigdragon to death with his scratchiest neckerchief.
"I thought I'd lost you, Arthur." He seethed, in response to which Arthur's smirk immediately dropped. "Do you know what it feels like," He continued in a quiet whisper "to watch the world end?" -

Summary
If you asked Merlin last year, last month, or even last week if he’d be caught dead at an Arthur Pendragon concert, he would have laughed himself sick. He liked concerts and he liked live music, but Arthur Pendragon wasn’t music. He was celebrity worship, capitalism, and nepotism wrapped up in a charming, fake-chivalrous, sexy little package.
That pretty much made him public enemy number one in Merlin’s book.
-Or-
Merlin gets talked into attending an Arthur Pendragon concert, where he subsequently gets his mind (and other things) blown in Arthur’s dressing room.

Summary
The note said Merlin three days to live. Merlin is not impressed. Arthur takes it in his hand (and Leon's and Elyan's) to find the person behind it. Arthur learns in the process that his rule isn't as fair and just as he'd like it to be.
OR
Arthur is in Protective Mode and Merlin is a slippery little shit. Elyan and Leon are caught in it. Class inequalities are discussed, hands are cuffed (non sexy), beds are broken and shared (also non sexy).Merthur if you squint

Summary
"Gringolet, then." Merlin pushed, smirking. If Lancelot trusted him, if he hadn't already turned Merlin into the king, then they would be fine. Now he just needed to stay. "She helped. Would you have your brave and noble steed knighted, too?"
"That isn't the same, and you know it!" Lancelot blushed, running an annoyed hand through his hair. "You- you aren't a horse."
Merlin couldn't help but snicker. "Really? Arthur always says I'm an ass. That's kind of the same thing."

Summary

Summary
One morning, Merlin wakes to silence. The ley-lines are still. The druids are powerless. Creatures of the Old Religion begin to wither and die. Magic, once the heartbeat of Albion, is gone.
All of it, except for him. And as Camelot descends into confusion and fear, Merlin remains untouched. But that is the problem. Because Merlin was never just a sorcerer. He was never just a servant. He is the source. The cradle. The god who forgot he was divine.
Now the magic starves, and it feeds through him. As Gaius pleads for secrecy and Arthur demands answers, Merlin is left with an impossible choice: reveal the truth to the prince he loves—or let the world rot in silence.
And the longer he waits, the hungrier the magic becomes. The lonelier he becomes.

Summary
"Who dares defy me, the Last High Priestess of the Old Religion and rightful Queen of Camelot?!"
Somewhere in the further part of the peasant crowd a little commotion broke out as people presumably tried to move out of the way for someone. Morgana must have missed it however because she kept squeaking at no one in particular.
"Too much of a coward to come forth? Are you just going to hide behind all these peasants? That is quite alright with me. I will slaughter every single one of them until I have found you little rat. Guards!" As one all the mercenaries hefted their crossbows back onto the by now panicking crowd of civilians. Arthur could do nothing to stop it. He was utterly helpless against her magic and felt nothing but shame as he closed his eyes in front of the terror that was about to unfold. But then...
"NO. NO MORE."
________________________________In which Merlin is done, the citizens of Camelot are done and Arthur doesn’t understand the world anymore. When Merlin reveals himself, all seems lost to him. But he gets help from somewhere unexpected, which in hindsight he really shouldn’t be so surprised about.

Summary
Merlin cleared his throat, attracting everyone’s attention. “What the fuck is going on here?” he asked very clearly. All of the knights bowed their heads, except for Gwaine, who nearly tripped over in his hurry to run to Merlin and explain.
“Merlin, they were fighting, and I was all… ‘Eww! So irresponsible!’ But they were like… ‘We need to pick a winner’, so whatevs.”
“What?!” yelled the knights in unison.
“Gwaine, you started this,” added Elyan. “And he was the one who said we should start a bet as well.”
“No one likes a snitch, bitch,” hissed Gwaine.
Or Arthur is unconscious and no one can find his heir. No matter because Merlin doesn't mind helping around. After all, it's only until they find the heir, right?

Summary
"Ah, Merlin," Arthur said, looking up from his desk. "I expect you have my speech ready for tomorrow?"
Merlin nodded and approached the desk. He bowed his head as he put the scroll down then kept it bowed before moving back and standing in front of him.
Arthur, immediately, was suspicious.
"Merlin? Is something the matter?"
Merlin didn't answer, just keeping his head down.
