    Summary

    "Two vials sit cradled in Merlin’s palm. Their contents are near identical—one filled with a clear liquid, the other a cloudy one. If he closes his eyes, there’ll be no way to distinguish between them."

    Merlin has waited thousands of years for Arthur's return. Now, he makes a decision he never thought he'd make.

    Summary

    Arthur has always known who he is.

    He is the crown prince of Camelot. He will one day be king. He likes women. These are facts as certain and unquestioned as the rising of the sun.

    Then one afternoon, Arthur looks at Merlin and thinks he's beautiful.

    Terrified of what it means and convinced he will destroy the most important relationship in his life, Arthur struggles to bury feelings that only grow stronger with time. But Merlin has always known Arthur better than anyone—and when the truth finally comes out, Arthur discovers he may not be the only one who has been keeping secrets.

    Summary

    At some point the monster chasing Merlin had had names that meant something to him.

    Percival
    Elyan
    Lancelot
    Gwaine
    Leon
    Arthur

    But not anymore. Now, the group of knights slinks through the forest at break-neck speed, with such a degree of practiced and lethal unison they may as well have been the golden dragon curled on each of their shoulders.

    So Merlin is running.

    Merlin is running for his life.

    OR

    Merlin accidentally reveals himself as a sorcerer to Arthur and the knights. A very traumatizing 24 hour sorcerer-hunt proceeds this, that leads to a very conflicted Arthur, a very injured Merlin, and a very angry Gwaine.

    Summary

    "Let him think I hate him. If that’ll stop him from risking his neck for me over and over again, then it’s a sacrifice I don’t have to think twice about."

    Arthur finds out Merlin has magic. He also finds out how often Merlin risked his life for him and so, he does the only thing he can think of to protect him: banishment.

    Hurt and angry, Merlin leaves and swears to not look back.

    But, when two years pass and Morgana shows up at Merlin’s door, urging him to fill Gaius’ position as Court Physician, Merlin agrees. He really doesn’t know why, but Arthur is sure Merlin would do just about anything to get on his nerves.

    Unprepared for the shock of seeing Merlin back in the castle, Arthur is forced to speed along his plans to lift the ban on magic. But between stubborn councilors, a mysterious plague, a still angry Merlin, and Morgana being Morgana, Arthur is fairly certain he’ll lose his mind before the first year of his reign even ends.

    Summary


    Merlin held up a pinky and Arthur chuckled. He wrapped his own around it, like Merlin had once, long ago, taught him. Unlike those times, though, he brought their hands to his mouth and kissed Merlin’s fingers ever so gently.

    His smile only grew as he watched the tips of Merlin’s ears turn pink.

    Some and Now None of You's original ending, just because I already had most of it written, so why not post it. Read at least upto chapter 43 of the main story before this one.

    Summary

    4 times Arthur sees Merlin around the castle, and 1 time he actually talks to him.

     

    Arthur pressed his ear right to the gap, straining to hear. His every nerve was on fire, every instinct screaming at him not to miss a single word and his pulse was deafening in his ears.

    “You’ve kissed Gwaine?!”

    Yes, thank you, Leon. Because when the fuck did that happen?!

    “Several times,” Merlin confirmed.

     


    This is Arthur's POV of chapter 42 of Some and Now None of You. Probably can be read as a standalone.

    Summary

    Madison died on her 24th birthday. She woke up fifteen, half-dressed, and lying in the woods outside Ealdor.
    Now stuck in the world of Merlin, with no magic, vague memories of the show, and a complete inability to keep her mouth shut, Maddie’s doing what anyone would: pretending to have amnesia, dodging suspicious princes, and trying to stop a bunch of medieval tragedies with nothing but sarcasm and sheer determination.
    She was supposed to be a side character.
    Too bad fate’s about to make her the main one.

    Summary

    No young man, no matter how great, or mystic can know his destiny. He cannot glimpse his part in the great story that is about to unfold. Like everyone, he must live and learn. And so, it will be for the young magic arriving at the gates of Camelot. A boy that will, in time, father the legend. His name: Merlin.

    Or

    A rewrite of Merlin if the writers weren’t cowards. A lot gayer, magic users aren’t the enemy in every single episode, and Uther is the actual villain of the story. Morgana is still a villain, but we have sympathy for her.

    Summary

    Varric downed the rest of his drink and laughed, “ya getting off would be nice. Practice for all the side pieces you say I’m gonna have.”

    She knew he was joking, they joked about messing around together a lot and since it was pretty common knowledge Varric preferred dwarves it was always a good laugh between them and their other friends. However, with the wine and Wren honestly a little bored she decided to go with it and shrugged.

    “Ok, how do you want to do it?”

    “Oh, uh I was- I was joking.”

    She shrugged again with a small smile, “Ok.”

    There was a minute or two of quiet while Wren watched the show and Varric kept looking between her and the tv suspiciously.

    “Wait...were you serious?”

    Summary

    Author Mike Wheeler is renowned for his adventurous coming-of-age stories that are found on the shelves of any Young Adult section of a bookstore - whether it be in a bustling city or the quiet, closed-knit community of Hawkins, Indiana. And if there’s one thing his readers have learned to count on, it’s his signature charm of always writing a happy ending.

    But there was just one story he couldn’t finish, no matter where he travelled: the one of the Storyteller and the Mage.

    “I know what you’re really doing all this for. It’s time to let her go, kid,” Hopper breathed shakily through the phone. “She would want you to find your happy ending, too.”

    Mike clenched his jaw before grunting in agreement wordlessly. He knew Hopper meant well - he knew everyone meant well - but he just couldn’t help himself. No matter how stubborn or idiotic he looked, he just couldn't give up. He would keep searching.

    Because he still believed.

    An epilogue love letter for the Mileven community who ached for the post-credit scene that Mike and Eleven deserved.
