Summary
"I think this is probably just going to be one of these things," Eddie tells him. "You know, like… You could probably give me a whole manual and I’d still be weird about it. Like… I kinda just need to find a dick, suck it, and have it done with, y’know?”
“Well, you ever want help with that one, just hit me up,” Steve says, chuckling.
Steve really just wanted to help out.

Summary
“Lord Geoffrey,” Arthur sighs, rubbing a hand along his brow in frustration. “We’ve talked about this. I am not, at this point, interested in marriage.”
Geoffrey looks over at him then, lips pinched and eyebrows high on his forehead. “No sire. I shouldn’t think you would be the right person for this, anyways. Forgive me for saying so, but I hardly think there’s a magical being in all of Albion that would happily marry you, the son of Uther Pendragon.”
Arthur flushes in anger and embarrassment, despite how he privately agrees with Geoffrey. It shouldn’t bother him so much, really— after all, he intends to marry for love. Still, the claim that no being of magic could ever love him stings for a reason he can’t quite pin.
“No, I was thinking marrying off your Court Sorcerer might be a more effective strategy for gaining magical allies.” Arthur chokes on his own spit.
Camelot has legalized magic, but needs a magical political marriage to seal the deal. Merlin gets courted. Arthur pines, stresses, and pines some more.

Summary
“I’m the king,” Arthur says grumpily, swallowing around the stone that has settled in his throat, “I can wear what I want.”
“What about what I want?”
“I’m the king,” Arthur repeats slowly, since Merlin is being particularly thick, “and so you can also wear what I want.”
Or, Arthur dresses Merlin, which goes about as well as you would expect.

Summary
Arthur, Morgana, and Gwen had no idea what they were involving themselves in by volunteering to defend Ealdor—and Ealdor wasn’t ready for them either. Squashed between the Ridge of Ascetir and the White Mountains, Ealdor was offered unique protection from authority coming from either Camelot or Cenred’s kingdom. In other words, magic was used with an unusual degree of freedom, and it would surely be used while they were there.
Canon divergence of ep. 1x10 The Moment of Truth, imagining that magic is actually very commonplace is Ealdor. This fact causes Merlin some stress on the trip from Camelot to Ealdor with Arthur, Morgana, Gwen and his mother, and he must find a way to warn his friends of the magic they will see, no matter the outcome.

Summary
In the weeks following being revived by the Cup of Life, strange circumstances have been following Leon. The fire in his chambers seems to light and douse itself, the wind dances across his face, and water seems to caress his hands. But nothing is stranger than the root that shoots straight up from the ground to save his life from an arrow aimed at his heart. And stranger still is the answering blossom of warmth in his chest when it does.
But what does it mean? Surely, it can't be magic. Magic corrupts. It's to be reviled. He can't have magic.
Can he?
And why is Merlin suddenly so interested in him?

Summary
She sees Evan and Eddie again, and she’s really helpless, because she really, really wants to know if they’re together or not. She thinks about just dropping a “your son” while talking to Evan, just to see how he reacts. On Christopher’s paperwork - or so she'd heard - Buck wasn't listed as a parent, but Kayla’s been in LA long enough to know a title doesn’t mean anything.
The two really act like a couple, for what it’s worth. They’re almost entirely in sync, working seamlessly together to lure a kindergartener, three middle schoolers and a teenager into the car.
“I don’t know why I couldn’t just walk home,” The teenager–Harry, of course, whines.
“What, you don’t think we’re cool anymore?” Eddie retorts.
OR: 5 times teachers are confused by the 118's relationships, and 1 time they figure it out (and so do buck and eddie)

Summary
How Merlin had ended up dancing with Arthur in his chambers, he truly had no idea.
Yet there they were, with an extremely patient Arthur – more patient than Merlin had never seen him - guiding him and offering him gentle tips on how to move with the rhythm of the ballad. Although Merlin had landed on Arthur’s feet several times and had nearly throwing them off balance at least three occasions, Arthur hadn’t once scolded him or teased him.
He seemed relaxed, Merlin realised, catching the soft, encouraging smile on Arthur's face. It was strange to see him like that, especially since he had become king and his duties had multiplied. Yet now he looked unguarded, carefree.
And he was even more handsome than usual.Bookmarked by amACEinglyordinary

“E… Eddie,” Buck whispers.
“Y-yeah?” Eddie asks, chest heaving like he just ran a race.
Buck shifts up onto his elbows, meeting Eddie’s eyes. “Eddie. What- what are we doing here?”
Eddie’s eyes roam his face. "I don't know," he rasps. "I don't know, all I know is that you're driving me insane, Buck."Eddie gives Buck a medical massage; it finally pushes them over into what they've always meant to be.

Summary
“They just follow it around, copying it and helping it and bothering it so much that it's like, worn down into loving the duckling back and looking out for it.”
“So,” said Eddie, furrowing his brow. “In this scenario, you are—”
“A baby duckling, newly hatched into the world with no idea what’s going on.”
“And I am—”
“The first thing I saw when I opened my eyes.”
----
Eddie has no idea how to cope when a temporary case of amnesia causes the return of Buck 1.0. Buck has no clue why his future self hasn't made the moves on his hot best friend. It all goes pretty well, considering.

Summary
He turns to go check out the bathroom, and that’s when he sees it.
The shower… You can see directly into it from the bed.
Eddie picks up a pillow and chucks it at Buck’s head.
“What was that for?!” Buck sits up, and Eddie points at the shower.
“Why would they make the shower like that? You can see into it from here!” Eddie exasperates.
Eddie can see the wheels in Buck’s head turning.
“You know, I’ve heard of these types of showers before. When you get in and turn on the water, it frosts over so no one can see in from the outside!” Buck says matter of factly.
Eddie nods, traces of doubt still showing on his face.
“Alright… I’m gonna let you be the test subject in that case.”
Buck laughs and says “Ok, Eddie.”Or:
Eddie and Buck go to a firefighter convention. The shower in their room is completely see-through, and Eddie is a weak man.Bookmarked by amACEinglyordinary

Summary
When a deeply-closeted Arthur Pendragon finally earns a spot in Camelot's first XI, he's dead set on breaking records, not one of sport's last taboos. But life, like football, is a funny old game, and sometimes the only way up is out. Especially once he realises he's arse over tit for the new physio.
A queer Arthurian tale of courage, love, and football.

Summary
“Er,” Merlin said eloquently. “What would you like?”
“What I would like,” the man said in a drawl, “is for my barista to not be out on the pull while he’s supposed to be working. Especially if said barista clearly has terrible taste in men.”
Merlin flushed and glanced back down at his mobile. He really hadn’t been looking closely and if he hadn’t been interrupted, he would probably already have forgotten, but with a comment like that, he was fairly certain that he had just swiped left on his next customer.

Summary
In a peaceful, post-war Camelot, Merlin stumbles upon a hidden magical library filled with fanfiction starring himself, Arthur, Morgana, Gwen, and the rest of the Round Table.
What begins as innocent curiosity quickly devolves into chaos as the characters read outrageous pairings, secret desires, and wildly inappropriate tropes involving themselves (and yes, even Kilgharrah).
When the book starts writing about them in real time, reality and fiction collide in the most hilarious—and mortifying—way possible.
Turns out, the real threat isn’t magic… it’s fandom. -

Summary
Merlin often sneaks bites of Arthur's food and sips of his wine at feasts. After all he does for the kingdom under the cover of night, he thinks he's pretty deserving of the occasional luxurious tidbit.
Unfortunately, Merlin sometimes forgets that drinking wine meant for the heir to the throne can be a dangerous business.
