Maybe Not the Most Awkward Dinner to Happen in Camelot's Citadel, but it's Definitely Up There by HopePrevails
Fandoms: Merlin (TV)
29 Nov 2020

Summary
When an argument about whether Merlin is remotely attractive or not breaks out over dinner, Queen Guinevere accidentally drops into the conversation that she had a crush on him when he first arrived in Camelot. Arthur takes it... like Arthur.
--x--
“Don’t look so surprised, Merlin.” Gwen said kindly. Perhaps she was the psychic. “You’re sweet and gentle, charismatic-”
Arthur snorted.
“- and I’m not going to let you walk out of those doors thinking you don’t look the part, either. Remember, even when you first came to Camelot, I-” She stopped herself, snapping her lips tightly shut.Bookmarked by slashscribe

Summary
A 'verse in which Merlin is a god, Arthur is a prince, and still, somehow, they manage to find each other in the end.
*
"Who exactly is Emrys, anyway?" Arthur asks.
"The beginning and the end." Gaius' voice is solemn, reverent, almost like a priest presiding at a place of worship. "He is the bringer of spring, the scythe of winter. He is the eternal, the cycle of life and death."
Arthur holds his breath for a moment, then lets it out in a hissed puff. "Father just had to go and rile up the 'greatest', didn't he?"*

Basically how season 2 episode 8 should have gone, because I can’t stop thinking how Merlin had the perfect chance here, and I like to imagine what could have been.

Fandoms: Merlin (TV)

Summary
'Arthur did hear several other council members hide their laughter in unconvincing fake coughs, but he was entirely and understandably distracted by the horrible suspicion currently developing in his mind that his boyfriend might be a sorcerer.'
Once Arthur catches Merlin doing magic once, it's like he can't not see it.

Summary
Merlin is waiting. He's been waiting for, well, he's lost track of exactly how long. Eleven hundred years? Twelve? And then, just like that, Arthur is back. No neon signs or clapping thunder to announce his return- just Arthur, standing in the middle of the sidewalk.
Merlin knows he should be more worried than he is about the reason for Arthur's return. What danger or threat or pressing need has called him back? But while Merlin and Arthur try to figure it out, there's no harm in being glad, is there? After all, Merlin has missed him. Maybe more than he realizes.
(I expect this fic to be between 5-7 chapters, updated every 4-7 days. Title taken from "The Call" by Rupert Brooke.)

Summary
After defeating Cenred's forces and an army of the dead in the siege during the Tears of Uther Pendragon, Arthur has a traitor to identify, a city to rebuild, and—of course—a manservant to order around. All of which would be much easier to accomplish if Gaius would give him a straight answer about the magical staff found in the burial vaults, Merlin was not yanking Morgana into alcoves, and if Gwen would call him by his given name. When a druid insists on meeting with him, Arthur is forced to confront the fact that he cannot hide from magic.

Summary
"I..." Merlin began, trailing off. Arthur waited. "I, um... You see..." He tried again. Arthur felt another stab of resentment rise as his shoulders seemed to slump in resignation. What had Gwaine done to him? He was about to suggest Merlin speak to him alone when Gwaine's expression went completely blank before turning to look at the prince.
"Ah," He winced and offered a dazzling smile "Hello, your majesty. You caught us at a bad time."
"Have I?" Arthur asked coolly. Merlin blinked - looking Gwaine over warily.
"Yes," The knight continued and gestured between himself and Merlin. "We were just about to have some amazing sex. Right in that alcove actually," He said, nodding a bit towards a nook in the wall behind Arthur. "So, if this isn't anything urgent..." He trailed off. Arthur stared.
He... He had misheard, right? Definitely. For a moment he thought Gwaine had said... No. Absolutely not.
Or
Gwaine learns that Merlin has magic. Arthur learns that Gwaine is hopelessly in love with Merlin.

Summary
Merlin hadn't meant to upset a faery, and he wished he'd had the sense to run before it got to that. This curse was every bit as painful as it was annoying, and if he didn't manage to lift it before he made yet another mistake, it could easily be his neck on the line.
Or, Merlin breaks every single faery rule within approximately one week, and then has to deal with the consequences.
