Summary
He doesn’t notice how the quiet begins to grow around him, nor does he really understand how easily he accommodates the quiet until he can fit himself within it, without ever making a sound.
..........in other words, Merlin doesn't know he's loved and the others are doing their best to hold space...well...not everyone...

Summary
Merlin is struck with a curse while he and the knights are out on patrol. He must confess his darkest secret or he will die. Arthur thinks he already knows what Merlin is gonna confess, trying to coax him into saying it, but what happens when what he's expecting isn't what comes out?
Or
“Damn it, Merlin, the witch said this curse would kill you if you didn’t confess! It’s one secret, just say it! I won’t care no matter how deep and dark it is, but I will care if my useless servant dies taking it to his grave!”

Summary
Of all the ways Arthur and the knights could've found out about his magic, Merlin hadn't thought it'd be due to a sparrow. There will be a happy ending, but it's gonna take a while.
"Arthur was terrified when he saw Merlin make up his mind to jump. He put on a burst of speed, willing his body to give everything he had so he could just-reach out and….He crashed at full speed into the warlock, knocking them both out of breath, but most importantly, far away from the edge of the ravine. Merlin fought him, kicking and clawing for escape, but it was clear that whatever had fueled him for so long was gone, and eventually the kicking and punching and shouting was gone, and Merlin wept in Arthur’s arms, trembling hard.
“Sorry, so sorry, so so sorry. ‘M so sorry, Arthur,” he sobbed desperately, and Arthur held him close, heart racing and eyes wet. “I’m so sorry, please don’t burn me. I’m so sorry. I didn’ mean to, I was born with it.” Merlin cried, and Arthur shushed him gently."
A huge thanks to the remarkable artists who have been generous enough to bless me with their work. xoxo

Summary
Jaskier is used to being unwanted, not good enough to keep. Whether as a dragon who can't fly, or as a bard who doesn't know when to shut up, he's so useless that about the only thing he's good for - aside from being a burden to everyone he loves - is falling off of mountains.
He was pushed, the first time.
The second time, he'll go willingly.
