Summary
Merlin knew his go-to excuse of “going to the tavern” to explain his disappearances was always going to bite him in the arse. He just didn’t expect that one night while he was off doing magical things that said tavern would burn to the ground in a devastating fire and he would be presumed one of the victims.
Yep, this was going to be hard to explain.
[Now with new perspective from the knights!]

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
"I LIVED!"
Merlin closed his eyes. He could have predicted Gwaine's arrival into the modern world would be bad...He hadn't anticipated Leon's to be worse. Leon and Lancelot were supposed to be easiest of them all. The crowd all turned. The knight in question was still dressed in his armor, hands risen high to signal his triumph as he looked around. Merlin awkwardly cleared his throat and pushed himself through.
"Merlin?" He asked when he caught sight of him "You survived as well! I knew you would persevere against the trials of life as any man should. Death cannot claim us!" A woman in the crowd sobbed "Why do you look so strange?" He asked and Merlin tried to ignore the angry whispers and glares thrown their way.
"Let's talk about it after the funeral."
Or
In which the time has arrived for all who have fallen to rise again. Unfortunately, they are rising in the worst ways possible (Now updated with a second chapter with what Arthur was doing during all of this BS because Merry Christmas).
