    Summary

    Trapped inside the castle while a blizzard rages on outside, Merlin only wants Arthur's forgiveness. What he ends up with is a whole lot more.

    (Not to mention that he somehow finds himself snuggling with Arthur, as kittens.)

    Summary

    “I don’t have a crush,” he says, crashing back to earth with dreadful swiftness.

    “Sure,” Percy says, in such a way as to suggest that Arthur is very lucky that it is Percy in here, and not Gwaine. It is a very expressive ‘sure’.

    Summary

    “I can manage without a servant for one day.” he says, not missing the slight quirk of Merlin’s mouth at the statement. “And, if I absolutely must, I can always call for George.”

    “Wow,” Merlin smirks, a little bit of light returning to his eyes, and he reaches out to rest the back of his hand against Arthur’s forehead, “are you sure you’re not coming down with something too, sire?”

    “Shut it,” Arthur rolls his eyes, but his heart is apparently hoping to be named a traitor as it swoops in his chest. Arthur curls his fingers around Merlin’s wrist, the pad of his thumb resting gently over the other man’s pulse point, and meets Merlin’s gaze, knowing full well that he has a horribly fond smile on his face but not feeling particularly pressed to cover it up. “Go home, sweetheart.” he murmurs, twisting to brush lips over the pale skin of Merlin’s wrist. “That’s an order.”

    Summary

    The other nobles didn't have to tolerate pointed comments about their intelligence or the size of their waistline (which had not changed an inch, no matter what Merlin said.) They did not have to suffer messy chambers and the frustration of a manservant who would not do what he was told unless it suited him.

    And perhaps Arthur was petty, but it did give him some small satisfaction to see Merlin scowling at him from the edge of the duelling ring.

    'He'll turn you into a frog,' Gwaine said cheerfully, swearing as Arthur dodged the blow of his sword and smacked Gwaine's exposed side with the flat of his own weapon. 'Chuck you in a well and leave you there.'

    Arthur discovers there's a difference between knowing Merlin has magic, and truly seeing it for himself.

    Summary

    “You know,” the prince started, and Merlin grunted in frustration, turning away. Princes were always the same, “I don’t appreciate you talking about my father like that.”

    Merlin stopped and narrowed his eyes, before slowly looking back at the prince. He studied the prince's face intently.

    “And who, exactly, would your father be?” he asked, fury crackling through the calm sounding words. He was not in the mood to be played with by a prince.

    “Uther Pendragon,” the prince said calmly.

    Merlin’s tail lashed so hard against the rock next to him a large piece of it chipped off, rocketing through the air and over the edge of the mountain.

    ---

    Merlin was cursed to be a dragon, which was fine. It was fine, he was fine, he was happy, thank you very much. Everything was great.

    Except for all these knights and princes that kept bothering him. That, that was not fine. It was annoying. It definitely wasn't the only human interaction he ever got, he was fine.

    So if this odd group of knights and their king would leave, that would be wonderful.
