Summary
“I…” Words died on Arthur’s tongue as she took in the warlock before her, the overwhelming sense of relief upon seeing her for the first time in a week. Tears rose in her eyes, a lump burning in the back of her throat, and she closed her mouth and wordlessly held her arms out to the other girl. A flash of relief danced across Merlin’s face, and within seconds, Merlin had swept across the room and pulled Arthur into her arms. “Merlin,” Arthur whispered with a crack of her voice, clinging to Merlin like a lifeline and burying her face into her shoulder.
“Shhh,” Merlin soothed, running a hand up Arthur’s back. Her grip was warm, firm, and gentle at the same time with an overwhelming perfume of flowers. “I’m here, I’m so sorry–”
“Don’t,” Arthur croaked, tightening her grip on Merlin’s waist. “Please don’t apologize, Merlin. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. It wasn’t your fault.”

Summary
Ghosts have always haunted Arthur Pendragon, even before she was trained in the art of war.
As her father raved and raged about the evils of magic, she saw the ghosts of those her father killed in the corners of her eyes. She held her tongue in those situations, obviously, because anyone with the clairvoyant ability to see the dead was also magical, and she didn’t believe she was spared from her father’s fury. Despite being his only heir since her mother died, Arthur knew she wasn’t immune.
Speaking of her mother…
Or: How the first few episodes of Merlin would have gone had Arthur actually had a mother figure to look up to, albeit a dead one

A series of loosely connected merthur one shots in the same universe, in which both Merlin and Arthur are women. You don’t need to read them all, and they are not in any particular order, other than the order in which I get a plot bunny

Summary
The first thing Grace noticed about Stratt when she wasn't working was that she was longingly fixated on the sky. The second was that she never actually flew. He wasn't even sure he'd seen her wings not folded tightly against her back. She wasn't the only person with wings on the ship, far from it, but she was certainly the strangest about it.
Or; Grace and Stratt are part of the 30% of the population who have wings. Stratt's situation is made all the more complicated for it.

Summary
She glances sideways at him, mischief in the corner of her mouth, and asks, “You didn’t hear? The last man in? The tall one?”
“Stefan Beckman?”
She nods, her teeth shining when she grins like a shark scenting blood. “He is Stratt’s ex-husband."
And the bottom of Ryland’s stomach clenches.

Summary
“Looking rough there, Doctor Grace,” Ilyukhina observes as she flips her chair around, sitting backwards on it and propping her elbows on the back. She somehow manages to stare at him while eating her canned corn, which is disconcerting. Ryland presses a hand to his chest and shakes his head, still buzzing from the surprise. “Jumpy, too,” she adds through a mouthful. “What’s got you looking like a kicked puppy?”
“I don’t look like a kicked puppy,” Ryland replies, applying himself to the equally mushy pile of canned tuna.
“You do,” she contradicts. “Probably cause your pet-sitter is gone, no?”
OR
Ryland Grace thinks his crush on Eva Stratt is his own personal secret. Nope.
