Summary
Arthur died. Then Arthur wakes up. One week after Merlin begins his service as his manservant. Ten years worth of future knowledge is at his fingertips and the chance to make everything right: to rediscover Merlin, magic and all; to be the brother Morgana needed him to be; to spend more time with Guinevere and be the man she knew he could be, the man he aspired to become; to confront his father and change Camelot for the better.
But Arthur’s a prince again. He hasn’t known Merlin for one year, let alone ten, Morgana has no idea they were friends let alone related, Guinevere still thinks he’s a prat, and he has to act the part of a prince if he doesn’t want some poor sod getting killed in the hopes of lifting a fake enchantment Uther thinks was cast on his son.
Things are about to get a whole lot more complicated.

Summary
Merlin had often asked himself the same question over the years; how long would it take for everything to go to shit? Because there was so much that could go to shit.
His magic, for one, could be found out. Or, his friends could get dangerously hurt, Arthur could get into a kind of trouble that Merlin wouldn’t be able to rescue him from. And the worst? Arthur could find out about the giant red dragon that covered his chest, neck and shoulders, the same dragon that covered Arthur too, the mark that linked them in life and love; their soulmarks.
But Merlin has the worst luck, it’s already a miracle none of this has happened yet. But he speaks too soon because this all happens within the span of three days.

Summary
While Merlin knew Camelot was one of the worst kingdoms to be a magic user, he couldn’t refuse his mother. But Merlin was a clumsy idiot.
So, after a horrible day where he fought the prince, met a dragon and finally was caught using magic to save the life of his uncle, Merlin found himself in the pyre. On his first day.
But another thing about Camelot was also true.
This other tradition was almost a joke. The foot-of-the-gallows marriage.
When presented, it was carried out until the end, treated as something serious. The man being executed would be saved by marrying the woman who asked for his hand even before he could descend from the gallows. His crimes would be pardoned as long as he continued to be married to her, and they would have the opportunity to begin a new life in a blank slate.
But it has never occurred when the crime was considered serious, so no one had to put the tradition in a balance against the law.
So, when the executioner lit the torch and the prince shouted, “Stop the execution! I’ll marry him.” no one knew what to do.

Summary
Albion was Arthur’s world, and Camelot his compass. He could be blindfolded and set anywhere on the island, and he’d be able to find his way back to the citadel. He couldn’t remember ever learning it, not really. It was in his blood, his heart. He was Albion’s, and it was his.
He looked down at Merlin, and tried not to think too hard about what the Druids had called him.
Emrys. Power. Albion. Magic itself.

Summary
Merlin doesn't understand why Arthur gave him his mother's sigil. Arthur doesn't understand why Merlin is so sad about planning a wedding. Or Merlin doesn't understand royal customs and Arthur doesn't know how to talk about feelings.
Basically misunderstandings that end in love confessions with a lot of emotion hurt and comfort and a bandit attack thrown in!

Summary
As they stopped in front of the king, Merlin tensed,
'Fuck.' he thought
'i forgot.' he also thought
The blonde man, much more handsome up close got off his mare and assisted his female counter part off her horse.
She got down, turned and saw him, her green eyes immediately locking with his
"Well, Hello Merlin, fancy seeing you here" she grinned, brushing nonexistent dust from her skirt, in his peripheral, he can see Arthur's head snap to him, a confused look on his face, the rest of the knights with the same expression, in a various degrees but equally baffled.
The man's head snapped to find him and immediately, "Merlin? Oh no." He said, voice dreading
"Oh yes" she'd reply, happily clapping.
"Hello Iden, Hi Sol" he waved meekly🍂
Orrrrrr, yk those tropes where there's a foreign envoy visiting and a character actually knows that envoy or ppl from that envoy? Yeah. But like, theres also a mix of that trope where Merlin gets hurt bcs of a noble, but instead, make it George who got hurt :pp

Summary
Arthur finally looked up and frowned at Merlin’s soaked and shivering form.
“You mean to tell me you’ve been out, on the worst storm we’ve seen in years, in the middle of winter?”
He was shaking so much his body ached, he couldn’t feel his fingers or toes.
“Someone h-had to d-do it”
Arthur stared at him, incredulous.
“Where’s your jacket?”
Merlin crossed his arms unconsciously.
“I gave it to Claire. She needed it more”
Now Arthur was looking at him with exasperation and disbelief. Merlin shifted, uncomfortable, and pointed a shaking finger at the dinner tray.
“Your food will get cold, s-sire”
Arthur continued to stare at him, eyes widening.
“My-? For fucks sake, Merlin, come here.”...
In which Merlin cares too much about others (and too little about himself), Arthur is a good prince and he's hopelessly in love with his servant.Series

Summary
Merlin dropped the parchment to the floor with a squeak, his eyes wide in mortification and shock. What the hell was that?! His face burned a deep shade of red as he slowly picks the parchment back up, steadfastly not reading on. He needed to find who wrote this. Immediately.
And absolutely not so he could read more! No! He needed to dispose of this and anymore before, gods forbid, Arthur found out.
--
One evening, while working in the armoury, Merlin discovers a piece of parchment on the floor, which turns out to be an erotic story about him and Arthur!

"What are you going to do about it, Uther?” he asked, eyes wide and wild. “Kill me?"
He let out a harsh laugh, looking around the room, before his eyes fell back on Uther and his voice grew dull and joyless, almost daring the King. "You can certainly try."
"Merlin!"
"What? It's not like it'll work," Merlin muttered at the horrified look Arthur was giving him. His horror seemed to shift to concern at his words. Merlin would have laughed in any other situation.

Uther has discovered Merlin's magic after being tipped off anonymously.
Merlin has just discovered his immortality and is feeling a little
