    Summary

    Merlin is a curious merman who becomes intrigued with the humans who live on the land. After years of watching and longing, he finds out it's possible for a merman to become a human man.

    Meanwhile, Arthur is fed up with his life in the city and quits his job at the family business. After a blow-out fight with his father, he moves to his mother's old seaside cottage at sleepy Camelot-on-Sea, where he finds himself, his life's calling, and a rather mysterious merman who saves him in more ways than one.

    Summary

    Fanart for Leandra's work <3

     

    Merlin and Arthur leave London behind for their summer holidays in Cornwall. While Arthur wants to finish his second novel and forget all about the many letters of rejections from publishers, Merlin has taken quite some baggage with him: His uncle Gaius is getting on in years and wants to hand over the apothecary to Merlin, but rather than taking over, Merlin would love to follow his own dreams.

    Over the course of a summer, changes are slowly creeping up on them...

    *-* Set in my 1960s Hippie AU, but as always, I made it into a standalone as much as possible. For full enjoyment, I recommend reading the series.

    With lovely art by Papysanzo!

    Summary

    There was a moments silence where Arthur was momentarily stunned, and Merlin caught his breath.

    “Did you just call me a Jabberwocky?”

    or alternatively...
    Magic is a myth. Arthur knows that but every time he expresses this knowledge Merlin always deflates. Sure, Merlin wishes it were real, but it isn’t. Of course, it isn’t.

    Summary

    “Arthur?” Morgana said, and she sounded so small, so confused.

    Swallowing, Arthur pushed the wardrobe closed behind him and took a step towards her. Morgana’s eyes scanned the room, finally landing on the messed up bed, on Arthur’s nightstand, where damningly, a picture of his mother was framed.

    “What are you doing in Merlin’s room?” she asked, her eyes flicking back to him.

    *-*
    Enjoy another smutty, angsty instalment of my hippie au in which Arthur gets jealous, Merlin gets possessive and Morgana gets a surprise.

    Summary

    “I hate this,” Arthur said, stubbing his dress shoes into a pile of wet leaves.

    “What?” Merlin asked, shivering, turning towards him, both hands pushed into the pockets of his trousers, his shoulders drawn up against the cold.

    “This,” Arthur huffed. “Having to pretend. To lie.” Even in the darkness, Merlin could make out his scowl. “I hate not being able to tell everyone that I’m with this amazing person.” He turned, looking at Merlin, his eyes glittering. “I hate that we have to sneak off like this everytime,” he said angrily, taking a step closer.

    Set at Christmas 1969, part of a longer arc.

    Summary

    “Arthur should move in with Merlin. Maybe together they make one functioning adult.”

    “That’s actually a good idea,” Morgana said, sounding pleased with her boyfriend's suggestion. “You could split the rent. It’s not like either of you seem to be settling down with a girl anytime soon.”

    Arthur, who had wanted to protest sharply, snapped his mouth shut, feeling himself grow red in the face. Over the past couple of months, Morgana had tried to set him up with several of her girlfriends, not understanding why he wasn’t thrilled at the prospect of going out with any of them. He glanced up to look over the table at Merlin, who had stopped eating as well and was chewing his lip, looking back at him with an indecipherable expression on his face, his blue eyes dark.

    Written in the 1960s "Got To Get you Into My Life" verse.

    Secret relationships, yearning, some drug use, the moon landing, lots of 60s music and filthy, sweaty sex!

    It means that when Arthur visits his office, they often end up a little... distracted.

    At least they have a good reason for it today.

    At 24 years old, Merlin is Arthur's new editor. He also knows a lot more than Arthur about having sex with men, and is willing to teach him... for research purposes, of course.

    Summary

    Arthur only starts writing as a way to cope with his strangely vivid dreams. Nearly every night, he dreams he's King Arthur, only in a Camelot that has banned magic. When Morgana gets wind of his work, she pushes him to publish it, launching him headfirst into the world of publishing where he's introduced to a whole cast of people-- people that seem strangely familiar. That's how he meets Merlin, an illustrator who can portray his characters in an uncanny likeliness.

    But not everything that comes with it is good, and as a new familiar figure emerges, Arthur finds himself struggling to hold his life together.
