    Summary

    "I don't think you understand," Merlin said as he started walking backwards, brows wrinkled in confusion. "I can rip your throat out with my teeth and drink your blood. Does that not bother you?" He asked. Arthur finally glanced up from the papers in his hand to look at him, pausing his steps altogether. Merlin waited.

    "...Merlin, you fell over trying to put boots on." He said. Merlin grimaced, looking down at his feet.

    "I hadn't realized you were supposed to wear them all the time." He muttered, uncertain what this had to do with the fact he could murder everyone within a ten mile radius. Arthur sighed. "And those are bold words from someone who can't dress himself!" He added indignantly. Another sigh. Humans did that a lot as it turned out.

    "Merlin, that's your job."

    "And I've taught you several times. It isn't that hard."

    "No, I - " Arthur started and closed his eyes. "I don't have time for this."

    Or

    After living with demons for sixteen years, Merlin decides to explore his human side by venturing to Camelot. Also, he has a destiny to unite his species and bring magic back into Camelot, but he's not too worried about that.

    Summary

    “I love him.”, Arthur said this before he had a chance to wince at his words. The moment froze between them. Arthur had so many regrets, he would love to just fling himself out of the window right now. But then Merlin's sacrifice really was in vain.

    “You what?”, Uther's eyes were wide in shock. Maybe a little disgust at the prospect of a noble liking a servant.

    Arthur swallowed down his pride. He had just thought about what was more important than pride and honor. He could make this sacrifice. 'For Merlin.', he thought.
    Because life is always more important. Arthur closed his eyes to brace himself for what he was going to say next.
    Just so he wouldn't have to see his father's reaction.

    “He's my consort.”, he added and almost broke at his own words. Lying was always hard. But nothing had ever compared to this.

    Summary

    “He was getting to that point though, where he’d begin to question whether the water running down his face was from the showerhead or from crying. He forced his thoughts elsewhere, screwing his eyes shut and bowing his head slightly, letting the water pound against his neck instead of burning his face. He thought of just something, anything to occupy his mind.

    But then he didn’t have to, because suddenly there was a warm body pressing against his, and he knew it was Minho without having to turn and look at him.”

    aka the scorch trials are over, and newt doesn’t know whether to be grateful or guilty. WICKED’s taken every bit of certainty from him, but minho’s there to get him back on track.
