    Summary

    Four years has Merlin spent in Hogwarts and yet he's no closer to getting answers. Who took his memories? What is his purpose? Where is Arthur? Well, it seems at least one of his questions would get answered but now... Merlin wasn't sure he wanted to know. After all, did he deserve his king?

    It's time for the greatest sorcerer to ever walk the earth to pay his penance.

    Summary

    Merlin has survived dragons, destiny, kings, magic-hating monarchs, and the emotional devastation of watching everyone he’s ever loved die.

    So really, he thought, a simple trip to the wizarding world for tea couldn’t possibly be that bad.

    He was wrong.

    Now he’s somehow become the unofficial emotional support adult of Hogwarts, is being hunted by the house-elves because he keeps fixing castle structural problems himself, dealing with a basilisk situation that Merlin is “pretty sure he dealt with once already, back in the 5th century.” and trying to stop Gilderoy Lockhart from deciding that he is his "professional rival."

    Merlin regrets stepping outside...

    Summary

    ”He’s recently watched his first love die, sire.”

    Arthur froze, and Morgana felt an uncharacteristic laugh bubble in her throat. She swallowed it down.

    Merlin left. Because his first love died.

    That does seem like the kind of thing to break him, doesn’t it?

    OR

    Merlin's bitterness towards Arthur for Freya's death is only increasing day by day, when a letter arrives from a dragonlord, claiming to be his father. Desperate for a break from destiny, Merlin leaves Camelot. He returns over a year later, but things are not the same. He has people-- and dragons-- to look after. And there comes a problem when Morgana starts behaving strangely, her glares towards Arthur a little too angry to be normal...

    Summary

    Eye fucking: to stare at someone with nefariously explicit intent and for them to do it back is a bonus.

    Arthur Pendragon has a problem.
    He cannot stop staring at Merlin.
    At first he blames the fact that his servant is irritating, mysterious, and seemingly incapable of acting like a normal person. Then Morgana discovers Merlin's secret, magic begins slipping through the cracks, and Arthur finds himself uncovering layer after layer of the man standing beside him.
    Set during Season 2. Arthur learns Merlin has far more secrets than anyone suspected and discovers, to his increasing annoyance, that he doesn't seem to care.

    Summary

    King's Legends, one of the most successful rock bands in the world, has a problem. Their lead singer has unexpectedly retired to become a full-time father, leaving them just three months to find a replacement before a massive world tour.

    They find him in the most unlikely of places.

    Merlin is an instant hit with the band, the fans, and especially the band's manager, Arthur Pendragon. For Arthur, it's love at first sight. For Merlin, it's impossible. A painful past and a closely guarded secret make any future together seem futile.

    As the Legends travel the globe, they find themselves caught up in a scandal, facing a near-death experience, dealing with an obsessive stalker, and learning a revelation that changes everything they thought they knew. And through it all, Merlin and Arthur are plagued by strange dreams that seem completely random and impossible to explain.

    By the time the tour reaches its final stop, nothing will be the same again.

    Including the answer to what those dreams really mean.

    Summary

    When the figure crossed into Molly's line of sight, she had just long enough to recognize the shape of a man before the door was yanked from its hinges by an invisible force. Magic, she thought in a daze; but Molly had never seen magic do something like that. The most talented sorcerer she'd ever met could barely juggle apples without touching them. This had more in common with stories her mother would whisper about the old gods than it did with the spellwork she'd grown up glimpsing.

    Arthur's been captured by bandits and thrown into an (already occupied) cell. Fortunately, there isn't much that a dungeon can do against the wrath of Emrys.

    Summary

    When Hunith arrives in Camelot with news of an attack, Merlin knows what he has to do. He is perfectly capable of driving away the likes of Kanen’s men by himself; he has been defending Ealdor since he was ten years old.

    However, he has no idea of the lengths Arthur will go to to protect his poor, misguided manservant - such as adopting a disguise and following him home.
