Summary
“He once again placed his hand on the flat surface of the lake and, gathering all the magic he had within himself, forced his mind to conjure up a single image of Arthur. The broadness of his shoulders. The sincerity in his eyes. The reassuring strength of his grip. The kindness in the curve of his smile. The laughter in his voice. Arthur Pendragon. I command you to rise.”
OR: Five times Merlin fails to wake Arthur and the one time he succeeds.
OR: My attempt at working through the trauma inflicted by the Merlin finale.

Summary
Merlin hadn't a clue why the nurse was acting out of sorts, but he'd be damned if he wasn't going to get to the bottom of it.
~
In an alternate universe, Arthur doesn't receive a fatal blow at Camlann, and thus, never learns of Merlin's magic. Chaos ensues.
Inspired by this tumblr post.

Summary
A few minutes of walking around, congratulating all the knights who were advancing to the last round of the tournament tomorrow, Merlin finally finds the tent he’s been looking for.
It doesn’t look much different from all the others, it’s only the Pendragon crest that makes it stand out to him. A golden dragon on a field of red. Merlin imagines the majestic creature lying on its side, bleeding out an ocean of blood and painting the vast expanse of a battlefield with crimson-red. There’s no fire, no magic, no life left in it.
It’s a chilling image. Merlin feels the coldness of death in his very human bones.

Summary
“And you'd do anything?” Leon asks, and Merlin doesn't fully understand what his tone of voice means, nor can he decipher the look on his face, but it's Leon - how bad could it be?
“Anything.”
Leon laughs, and Merlin has always liked Leon's laugh, but now it makes him nervous.
“Remember that fantasy I told you all about at the tavern?” Leon asks the other knights. “Who's in?”

Summary
Anhora breathed out, his gaze resting on the son who was fading away. Another of his pure-hearted creatures disappearing because of glory and hatred, because of ignorance and deceit.
His eyes then shifted to the boy who had held, cradled, the head of Anhora’s son, Estel, in his hands.
“I’m so sorry,” he was whispering, “I’m so very sorry.”
Anhora allowed a faint smile to disturb his solemn expression, a glimmer of light in the grim darkness.
At least, he thought, someone who still cared did exist.
“Arthur Pendragon,” Anhora spoke to the soul of the hunter who had just arrived, a look of pride of the kill he had just made, killing an innocent with his actions, “the judgment of your heart has only just begun.”
We’ll see what kind of friend you are, he thought, vanishing as the boy’s blue gaze found him.
