    Summary

    Kidnapped and banished at a young age, Merlin is a prince without a crown or kingdom. Though raised with magic and sword by his side, he faces a tumultuous path that takes him to Camelot and brings with it a destiny he never believed in. But at every turn he faces the consequences of his actions, unwilling as they might be, and his two secrets—magic and his dusty title— have never been close to tearing apart the life he built for himself in Camelot until a letter finds its way into Arthur's hands.

    And the two lives Merlin has led begin to bleed together.

    Summary

    In a society where people with magic are considered to be dangerous, are labelled as freaks, and have their powers cut off from them, Merlin does whatever he can to survive the hard life he’s faced with. When he’s in desperate need of money, Merlin’s landlord Aredian arranges and offers a magically binding contract in which Merlin is to become a ‘companion’ to Uther Pendragon’s son, Arthur. And when Merlin feels compelled to accept it, he never would have imagined that one man could change his life so completely.

    Soulmates AU!

    Summary

    The first thing Merlin saw when he arrived at Camelot was an execution.

    The second thing Merlin saw was a grieving mother. He closed his eyes against the voices, clutched his travel bag, turned around and walked away without looking back.

    He’s not an idiot, thank you.

    Summary

    A modern magical comedy very loosely based on Ugly Betty. Publishing king Uther Pendragon has had enough of his playboy son seducing every female assistant he has ever had so he hires Merlin, a man he is sure Arthur will never sleep with. Merlin would be more insulted by this fact if he wasn’t so busy trying to juggle his duties, save Arthur's skin from ruthless fashionistas and keep his magic a secret at the same time. Expect appearances by oil-lathered knights, the occasional mad druid, a perverted Will and a mental caretaker who lives in the basement and keeps harping on about coins and destiny.

One day, the Knights of Camelot come to arrest him for the sorcery he has failed to hide well enough, and a hostile, awkward first meeting with the prince will force him into new situations and change his life in ways he never thought possible.

    In which Merlin doesn't go to Camelot, but meets Arthur anyway.

    Summary

    “Never wander alone, my darling, or Jenny Grinteeth will get you,” Hunith used to say. “Or if you forget, make sure you say the rhyme - that wards her off.”

    Jenny Grinteeth leave me be, my mother loves me, leave me be.

    Jenny Grinteeth is a game they play. But as Merlin is sucked into life at Camelot, he wanders alone more than ever. He is surrounded by people, but he doubts they love him; they can’t really even know him. The loneliness becomes so routine, he forgets his mother’s warnings and the funny, little rhymes, which might otherwise have saved his life.

    This is all Gwen's fault. Merlin never wanted a stupid smartphone in the first place. Now, he has a smartphone and a supercilious, posh git bullying him on Whatsapp. He really should block the prat.

    or

    The one where Merlin doesn't block the prat and finds out that, maybe, smartphones aren't so bad after all.

    Summary

    “You know,” the prince started, and Merlin grunted in frustration, turning away. Princes were always the same, “I don’t appreciate you talking about my father like that.”

    Merlin stopped and narrowed his eyes, before slowly looking back at the prince. He studied the prince's face intently.

    “And who, exactly, would your father be?” he asked, fury crackling through the calm sounding words. He was not in the mood to be played with by a prince.

    “Uther Pendragon,” the prince said calmly.

    Merlin’s tail lashed so hard against the rock next to him a large piece of it chipped off, rocketing through the air and over the edge of the mountain.

    ---

    Merlin was cursed to be a dragon, which was fine. It was fine, he was fine, he was happy, thank you very much. Everything was great.

    Except for all these knights and princes that kept bothering him. That, that was not fine. It was annoying. It definitely wasn't the only human interaction he ever got, he was fine.

    So if this odd group of knights and their king would leave, that would be wonderful.
