Merlin and Arthur were up to their old tricks in the library. Geoffrey wasn't about to let them use the library stacks for an assignation when they had a perfectly good bed in Arthur's chambers instead.

AU: A disillusioned Merlin is kicked out of Camelot. He was completely in love with Arthur and devastated when Arthur rejected him and his magic. Merlin starts traveling around visiting the smaller villages (while in disguise) and showing them how magic can be used for good.

Arthur is excited (even if he won't admit it) to see Merlin again after a month. Tonight he will witness an ancient Druidic ritual that will seal the bond between magical peoples and Camelot forever. As the music starts, he sees Merlin across the clearing. But this is Merlin like he's never seen before. Oneshot, Canon universe, slight AU.

She knows it is wrong, and yet Morgana cannot help but fancy her brother.

Something about the Lake of Avalon deeply upsets Merlin, and Arthur wants to know why. Post-magic reveal. One-shot.

This is as the title suggests a singing battle. Enjoy! MERTHUR!

A young fatherless girl sets out of her home village and heads over to the city of future legends. What kind of adventures she'll find in a place where magic is outlawed and where a crown prince doesn't bring much hope for the people about future? And what about a dragon who feels oddly familiar but likes to be vague over everything? /Female Merlin, series rewrite, over 16

[Ange Phoenix] Depuis son arrivée à Camelot, Merlin avait subi de nombreuses pertes mais il ne s'imaginait pas à quel point celle de Gaius serait... douloureuse et dévastatrice, ni même à quel point Arthur serait là pour lui.

Arthur couldn't seem to tear his eyes away from Merlin. His pupils were blown wide, ringed with the brightest blue Arthur had ever seen. Arthur dropped his head down, pressing his forehead to Merlin's, and rolled his hips again and oh. [cross-posted on AO3]

Modern Mergana AU: Merlin is the new admin assistant in the corporate office of Pendragon Enterprises, Morgana is a junior exec in marketing, and Arthur...well, Arthur's just technologically inept. Merlin and Morgana bond over making fun of Arthur, but soon it becomes something more than that...

The BBC Merlin series... With a twist

'Tis three nights before the Feast Day of Blessed Brigid, and the servants of Camelot are busier than ever with preparations, especially poor Gwen. Merlin learns something new about the Good Neighbours - but can he teach Gwen something in return?

It rained for days after Merlin came back from the Lake of Avalon.

Arthur knows four things: Merlin committed treason. Merlin is loyal to him. Merlin wants to tell Arthur the truth. Merlin is scared Arthur will kill him. All he needs to figure out now is what on earth his servant has actually done.

In a land of myth and a time of magic, the Destiny of a Great Kingdom rests on the shoulders of a young warlock, a clotpole prince and a tired warrior. Their names... Merlin, Arthur and Thalia.

There was a price to pay for everything. Merlin didn't realize how steep the price of immortality was.

A quiet walk through the park on a summer morning leads to a child mistaking Merlin for Santa Claus, and he realizes that he loves playing the part.

Es hätte ein ganz normaler Ausflug sein sollen. Stattdessen muss Merlin Arthur endlich sein Geheimnis offenbaren und dieser eine Wahl treffen...*Revealfic *ratedTbecauseIdon'twantanytrouble

Merlin takes a deep breath and slowly stands in front of him. Arthur looks at his strange servant in surprise. "Forgot to do something," Merlin says. (a small sketch for 1x13)

Someone had kidnapped Arthur and Merlin and all the knights are going to rescue him. When the heroes arrive to save their king, they find that this wasn't some normal kidnapping. Oh no, it wasn't that simple. But what did they want with Arthur's soul? AU description inside. Rated T because I'm paranoid.

There were a few things that he was able to keep in his prolonged life. Things that stayed with him, never aging or rotting away like so many other things have. Even his memories were whips of things long buried. Merlin's friends are right. It's time to let go and move on.

A different take on the scene from 4x05 where Arthur apologizes to Gwen for breaking up with her.

AU fic where Arthur and Gwen experience a possible life changing event.

Arthur and the knights finally return to Albion, but Merlin reacts quite differently to how any of them would have expected.

31 unconnected whump stories, written for the Whumptober challenge. Mostly Merlin and Arthur whump but with lots of lovely knights too! Not specifically slash but can all be read like that if you like. Expect blood, swords, magic, bandits, evil sorcerers, angst, hurt/comfort and of course Gaius's healing herb poultices. I hope you enjoy!
