    Summary

    Merlin has been alive for a very long time.

    He is not losing it... But he is on a very meditative journey to become one with a blade of grass when he suddenly wakes up in the sixth century, surrounded by friends he only sort of remembers and a king who isn't a king yet.

    In other words: My version of a Merlin travels back fix it fic starting in the missing year between seasons 3 and 4.

    Will add more tags as they become relevant!

    Summary

    Arthur's never been good at expressing her feelings. Hell, half the time she doesn’t even know what those feelings are. One thing’s for certain though: she’s completely and utterly lost without Merlin.

    But Merlin is bound to marry a knight someday, Arthur is sure of it. And for whatever reason, the thought of seeing Merlin married, even to one of her most trusted knights, shatters her heart into a billion pieces.

    So basically, Arthur is a complete mess.

    In his determination to protect Arthur at any cost, Merlin lands himself in a situation that neither of them know how to cope with. And when a powerful enchantment is crafted to make sure that it never happens again, Arthur's dignity is the least of his concerns.

    He tells himself it's for Merlin's own good.

     

    Or,

    Arthur can feel Merlin's magic—from wherever he is, and especially in places he'd rather not.

    Summary

    Merlin felt strong arms lift him. He wanted to protest, to stay and hear what else Gaius might say, but the knights were already carrying him off the training field, and he sank into oblivion.

    ~*~

    An assassination attempt on Arthur leaves Merlin seriously injured. In fact, he shouldn't survive ... but he does. And that brings a lot of other questions to the fore.

    Summary

    Merlin really didn’t understand why Arthur kept assigning him more guards. He was Camelot’s Court Sorcerer and, oh you know, the strongest warlock to ever live. He really didn’t need the protection, but his stupid overly protective husband just refused to see reason. Though maybe all the trouble Merlin got into every time he left the castle wasn’t helping his argument.

    Or the 5 times Arthur adds a new guard to Merlin’s protection detail and the 1 time Merlin does something about it!

    Summary

    In the end, Arthur had come to a couple of conclusions. Firstly, he's madly in love with an utter dumbass, though he knew that already. Secondly, said dumbass has a fear of scaring his loved ones off, which is ridiculous because Merlin couldn’t get rid of him if he tried. Thirdly, making him wait before officially becoming Court Sorcerer seemed to confirm his fear of being dangerous; a feeling Arthur would never ever want to purposefully invoke in him. And fourth, his people began to view Merlin as their king more than they did Arthur. Oddly enough, as it happened more and more after the situation in the lower towns, the king found more and more times that it, in fact, had always been that way. Only now, people were a bit more open about their favouritism.

    The hierarchy in a castle should be fairly easy to understand. Servants and cooks and stable boys all somewhere near the bottom with the King himself at the very top. Somehow, Arthur had managed to completely dismiss that as soon as he made magic legal. In his righteous defence, it was all Merlin’s fault. And Gwaine’s, definitely Gwaine’s.

    Summary

    For the first time in years, he felt more like a servant than a friend, and after all they went through together, Merlin couldn’t deny that it hurt. Of course, Arthur would want to spend some time alone with Gwen, that was normal, but Merlin felt like Arthur didn’t need him around as a friend anymore. Like he had been replaced. They used to talk in the morning, after the King had finally got out of bed after much grumbling. Arthur would tell him about his worries, he would complain about insufferable Lords and ask Merlin’s advice for how to solve a dispute or how to change a policy. Of course, he always pretended that he wasn’t taking Merlin’s opinion into account, that a servant didn’t have the wit or the knowledge to adequately understand a complex situation. But Merlin knew that Arthur always listened to him and that he valued his input. But now, he dismissed Merlin as soon as the servant had brought up his breakfast, claiming that he and Gwen could dress alone. Merlin missed dressing Arthur, making sure his hair looked good and fastening his armour.

    Or
    Arthur and Gwen's wedding marks the start of a series of events that will put a strain on Arthur, Gwen and Merlin's relationship.

    Summary

    A complete Hogwarts story of Arthur Pendragon and Merlin Ambrosius during the 1st wizarding war: 1971 and onward.

    Summary: Arthur Pendragon is on top of the muggle world. He comes from wealth and political power, he's the top fencer in his class and as high in a social hierarchy as an eleven year old can climb. He is also a wizard, or so his letter says.

    Merlin Ambrosius is a pure-blooded heir of one of the most renowned sacred 28 families. He's a descendent of the original Merlin. Penniless but powerful, Merlin is in his element at Hogwarts school.

    Arthur most certainly is not.
