He was like a star. Silent in the ways that mattered, stalwart even as he played the fool. Twinkling and crashing and burning in this universe that they had all created. This universe where they lived and dreamed and died in. This universe that allowed him to watch, and to wait, and provide hope. Just like a star.

"It doesn't have to be like this," Merlin said, his broken voice earnest with a hint of desperation. "We can find another way." Morgana's steely resolve showed no change as she stared at him, her eyes darkening as she accepted the cruel reality. "There is no other way." What if Merlin changed the course of Morgana's fate with a simple action? Based on 3x02.

Arthur let out a strangled sound as Merlin sliced off the heads of the roses, tossing the stalks away. "Roses have so many health benefits," Merlin offered conversationally. "They can help reduce pain, depression, anxiety, stress…" In which Arthur keeps bringing Merlin flowers and Merlin keeps thinking they're for medicinal use.

A happy ending! They all come back from Camlann. I wanted to explore what happened to Arthur in the throne room during the fisher king episode. So, in this story Arthur's daughter receives a quest of her own. Her quest: find The Holy Grail. Also she has magic. But don't worry! It's not all new characters; Arthur and Merlin get plenty of screen time. Please leave a review!

In which Merlin is sick, Arthur's being an ass, and Gaius is concerned. So is Gwen. And Lancelot. And all the knights of the round table because its /Merlin/ and he's their smol Features sick!merlin and everyone else being caring af (eventually)

What happened to Merlin and Albion during the hundreds of years between the death of Arthur, and the modern day? Read to find out!

A day in the life of Merlin and Arthur after the latter's return to the land of the living. (Cross-posted on AO3 and Wattpad under the same Username)

Merlin always had to help his mother. She couldn’t tend the field by herself! So, as he worked: the noble children learned.

Arthur has ordered Merlin to take care of a "Rat Problem", but it does not go as planned and Arthur may lose a toe.

Being made of magic has consequences, some more serious than others.

The 'Truth or dare' game is always a crap-shoot. Sometimes truth is the most dangerous game of all.

Merlin isn't always known for being that careful with spells. Point being….

Merlin would have thought Arthur would visit the faire when it came to town. After all, there were jugglers and horses and colorful crowds and fun, but there was something else going on under that prattish exterior.

Uther was having none of Merlin calling his son names in public. There were consequences.

5x10 Canon divergence. What if the Young Warlock passed out from his wound before he managed to call for Kilgharrah. What if Morgana's men heard something, giving the High Priestess reason to venture on the roof. Upon which, she saw her old friend, someone she cared greatly for until destiny said otherwise. His name, Merlin.

In which Merlin doodles in Arthur's notebooks, Arthur takes naps and Gaius conducts the most boring Art History lectures known to man. (Modern AU)

After the end of series 4, Merlin is cursed by nightmares and realises the only person he can turn to is the woman he failed to help years ago (Merlin x Morgana romance).

"He's more than just a servant. He's a prince. And I'm in love with him." / The bandits didn't see any reason to keep Merlin alive when Arthur was the one with real ransom value. Arthur claims that Merlin is much more than a servant...in multiple ways.

On a rainy winter night, Hunith chooses to show a complete stranger a rare act of kindness. But little does she know how this one fatal decision will ultimately change her life forever. The story of Hunith and Balinor.

Starts 5x05. The Disir tell Arthur to allow magic back into Camelot. What if Merlin chooses differently? Would the ending be different? Or just the journey? T for mild violence and possible language.

There was never really any reason for Merlin not to tell Arthur he was a dragonlord in Series 2. So I wrote an AU where he did. Not a reveal. Short Arthur exploration. Deep friendship or Merthur if you want to see it that way.

Following the druids' return to Camelot, a druid ambassador visiting King Arthur's court reveals the existence of Emrys, sparking a city-wide search for the elusive sorcerer. In between hiding from Camelot's knights, keeping Morgana and Agravaine in the dark, and protecting the ambassador, Merlin struggles to keep his identity a secret and stay one step ahead of his pursuers.

"Don't touch me!" Guinevere shoved Merlin hard. He stumbled backwards. His hands flew behind him to stable himself as his back hit the wall. He didn't have enough time to grip it. Rated T just in case.

Prince Arthur has been raised from his youth not to trust or to be open with others. From a childhood raised in relative isolation, and fear of expectations he grew up to be bitter and arrogant. This story explores, how their friendship developed in the beginning and chronicles how hard it was for the Prince to learn to be a friend. *Currently on the Poisoned Chalice*

A glimpse of those few hours after Lancelot stepped through the veil. Tag to 4x02, spoilers.
