Summary
Merlin first started playing with his own mind when he was hardly even able to understand the concept, running through the woods by his village as distant music played.
And so, perhaps it was not so much of a surprise when arriving in Camelot and having access to paper and ink, he could never quite quit his mental wonderings.
Or when he began to write it down.

Summary
This is wrong, this is so, so wrong. He needs to tell Merlin who he really is. He shouldn’t be doing this – whatever it is that this is – when Merlin doesn’t even know the half of what he’s getting into. When Merlin doesn’t know who Arthur really is. When Arthur can feel himself falling in love with a man who knows him better than anyone else in the world yet doesn’t know him at all.
But Merlin’s hand in his feels like everything he’s ever wanted, and there’s always tomorrow to tell him. Everything was too perfect, too earth-shatteringly wonderful to risk.
Until it wasn’t.

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.Series

“I don’t want anything,” he finally promised. Merlin hummed and went back to typing.
The sound of his fingers tapping the keys at rapid speed was calming. It could lull Arthur to sleep, if he were honest. “You always want something when you say you love me like that.”
“I do not!” Arthur scoffed, nudging Merlin in the shoulder gently.

Summary
It is days like today when Merlin realizes how very grateful he is to be best friends and flatmates with the very wealthy and very generous Arthur Pendragon, even if it makes him feel literally insane most of the time. Even if the writer’s block is sort of Arthur’s fault in the first place because Merlin finds it increasingly demotivating and depressing to try to write emotionally satisfying gay romance novels when he suffers the misfortune of living in a rather emotionally unsatisfying one, with endlessly building tension and no fucking climax.
Or, Merlin is a romance writer secretly and pitifully in love with his best friend and flatmate Arthur. To unstick his writers block he decides to date Gwaine and Elyan, a poly couple. Turns out nothing unsticks except Arthur's sanity.
