Of Kings and Servants (and Queens Who See Too Much) by SilentFootsteps
Fandoms: Merlin (TV)
05 May 2024
Tags
Summary
The bond between Arthur Pendragon and his servant had always been obvious to those who spent any time in close proximity to them. Whispers of extraordinary loyalty, rumours of a life saved and the debt that had been repaid didn’t spread freely beyond Camelot’s walls but that didn’t stop people from seeing it with their own two eyes (or single eye, or even no eyes; it was not subtle in the slightest).
Or, Merlin and Arthur's bond seen through the eyes of Queen Annis.

Leaving and Growing Up by ratking_withnotail

Summary
Percy Jackson was excited—genuinely excited—for the first time in what felt like years. A new city. A new name. A new face, even. The golden hair, the pale blue eyes, the tattoos that traced his skin like constellations—none of it screamed “Percy Jackson” anymore. He was Evan Buckley now, or just Buck, depending on who asked. He’d keep busy—physically exhausted, mentally occupied, emotionally detached. That was the key. No attachments. No friendships. No relationships. No vulnerability. He’d learned the hard way that getting close to people only ended in pain. Either they died, betrayed him, or saw the legend behind the name and stopped seeing him altogether.
Unfortunately, he hadn’t planned on the 118.

Of Kidnappings, Cherry Red Suckers, Apocalypse Apologies, & a Giant Bag Full of.... by Firefawn
Fandoms: 9-1-1 (TV), Supernatural (TV 2005)
23 May 2026

Summary
If Buck thought the aftermath of the lawsuit was bad, it had nothing – absolutely nothing – on the Winchesters barreling into his life, finding out the apocalypse was imminent, that his own death was a seal, and a demon hitting on him.
He really should have realized that when an angel shows up to stop you from throwing yourself off a bridge, that it isn’t always a good thing.
----
After the lawsuit, Buck is back at work, hoping to reconcile. Only...it doesn't go as planned. His family hates him and after a lifetime of rejection it's one hit too many. Buck plans his goodbye…only a certain angel stops him, 'borrows' him, hands him the Winchester-patented starter's guide to hunting manual, and gives him purpose again. Too bad that angel was so busy saving Buck, they forgot about the goodbye letters left in the loft.
---
Buck rubbed at the bridge of his nose tiredly. "I'm pretty sure this is kidnapping."Dean scoffed. Sam shot him a look. "Think of it as adult babysitting."
Gabriel waggled a bottle of top shelf bourbon from his perch on the TV stand. "With booze!"
Right. Buck eyed his new...friend, warily. "Okay, kidnapping adjacent."

Summary
Loneliness is an insidious thing. When Merlin looks at Arthur, he sees not just a prince waiting for his time to rule, but a young man struggling to find his place in the world, with little help from anyone else.
The truth is, Arthur needs more than the friendship Merlin can offer. He needs people he can trust: men and women who will become his court and his confidants, and if he is going to survive to take the throne and lead Camelot into its golden age, he needs them sooner rather than later.
Finding loopholes in Uther’s laws is no easy feat. Court life is a dangerous game, but it’s one Merlin has every intention of winning so that Arthur can have knights of his choosing by his side.
And then there is the matter of his magic…

Summary
Arthur Pendragon has spent his whole life untouched—by kindness, by desire, or anything resembling real intimacy. It never mattered. Not until a certain annoying manservant came to Camelot—Merlin—who disregarded all strict royal etiquette and showed no restraint when it came to sudden, reckless displays of affection. Now, there’s something impossible in the space between them, something Arthur doesn’t know how to name—only that he aches to close the distance.

Guys, there was only one bed.
Guys, some obscure quest in the cold far-up mountains made them "huddle for warmth".
Guys, they might give in to this farm fantasy of theirs.
Can't I just put all the tropes in there?
