Summary
When a sparring accident nearly kills Arthur, Merlin reacts without thinking - and exposes his magic before the entire training yard. But the fallout is interrupted by a sorcerer’s attack that rips Merlin’s soul from his body, leaving behind only Emrys: magic incarnate, stripped of warmth and memory. As Camelot reels, Arthur must face not just the politics of magic and the prophecy surrounding him, but his own feelings for the servant who has always stood by his side. Magic has always come at a cost - but Arthur never imagined the price would be Merlin himself.

Summary
With a gruesome kiss of electricity along flesh, the inevitability of demise settles weighted in his gut. The heat of the portal cradles him in dance and when it’s over, nothing is ever the same.
Danny was a normal kid, for the most part, until the fateful night he wandered into his parents’ portal in naïve curiosity.

Summary
Merlin arrived in Camelot months ago, as a scrawny fourteen-year-old with nothing to his name but magic that would get him killed. Now he's fifteen, apparently made a good impression with the King and as a reward (?) he gets to be manservant to His Royal Pratness, Jr. himself, and is *also* apparently supposed to keep said monarchal clotpole alive long enough to change the world for the better. And be Gaius's apprentice in the healing rooms. And keep his magic tamped down enough to not have his head detached by way of axe, or skin removed, or burned to a blackened husk, or whatever else the glorious King decides is appropriate punishment for a sorcerer that day.
Now, he's only fifteen. But he can totally handle this, right? Easy peasy.Series

Summary
Ever since he was little, Toby knew he was meant for something more. Maybe that's why he always seems to rush into things...relationships, work, trouble. And even though he has a gift--a gift which literally allows him to see when a fist is coming his way--he doesn't always register when a fight is about to break out. At least...that's the excuse he gives other people.
He has to admit…sometimes he does see it coming in time. And maybe it’s the foster kid in him. Maybe it’s the dark side that he finds himself hiding all too often. But, sometimes, he lets the fight happen. And, he thinks, maybe it’s because he deserves the pain. That’s only justice anyways…justice for all the wrongs his gift has done to people. So yeah, he can take a couple punches. No big deal.
He's totally, absolutely fine.
Note: This is my version of what would have happened if The Listener was renewed for a Season 6. In this fic I am hoping to address some of the plot holes this show has been serving us since Season 1 (aka what happened to "Victor Clooney", what happened to Toby's missing brother, what happened to Maya, if Toby has stronger powers we don't know about, etc).

Summary
Perhaps he could have ignored the glittering motes of magic that danced through the room. He could have blamed this strange place of power for their presence, but he could not deny the truth that made itself plain before him, painted in blue eyes turned to bright, brazen gold.
Merlin was a sorcerer.
---
When Sir Leon is gravely injured, Arthur, Merlin and the knights seek shelter in an old Sanctuary cave, but the magic within is far from powerless, and the goddess is always watching. Can they overcome their fears and find their way back to freedom, or will they be lost forever in their own enmity?
