Summary
Эндрю упал на колени, прежде чем смог добраться до нападающего, агония вырвалась из каждой нервной клетки его тела.
Он слышал далекий вой, но звон в ушах был слишком громким, чтобы обращать на него внимание. Ногти впились в кожу его шеи, когда он боролся с пластырем, и окружающий его шум удивления по поводу появившейся метки был неважен, когда Эндрю впился в нее пальцами. Его альфа мучительно кричал, когда Эндрю осознал, что означало это чувство потери опоры.
Где-то, слишком далеко, чтобы он мог дотянуться, Нил был мертв.

Summary
“I… I have magic.”
The words settled between them. Arthur let the silence stretch, watching the courage it had cost Merlin to speak them aloud.
Arthur had watched him bleed in his name.
Watched him drag him from the forest after that ambush, shoulders straining, refusing to leave him behind.
Watched him stand in council chambers full of men who would have burned him alive.
“Well,” Arthur said at last, a small, warm smile tugging at his lips, “that one was long overdue.”

What if Merlin's father knew about Hunith's pregnancy before he left? What if he didn't leave? What if Merlin was raised by the druids and he knew about he destiny for years before he arrived to Camelot?
What if Arthur wasn't totally brainwashed by his father? -

Summary
“I thought you might have some stories.” Arthur says, like this is a perfectly ordinary thing for him to suggest.
“Stories,” Merlin repeats.
“I don’t see any acrobats jumping out to entertain us.”
“Very funny.”
Arthur knocks their shoulders together with surprising gentleness. “Go on,” he goads. “Surely you’ve got at least one good story.”
Or, Arthur and Merlin are trapped by a rockfall. Arthur wants to know about Ealdor. Merlin wants to get out of this without having to reveal his magic.

Summary
Magic is slowly seeping out of the Earth and it is finding sanctuary in Merlin. Day by day, his already powerful magic gradually strengthens. However, when will the power be too much to bear?
Arthur, annoyed, follows Merlin through a forest to see him preforming magic. An entire friendship (or more) crumbles within him. Was it all a lie?
TLDR: Merlin is not careful enough when visiting a druid camp VS Arthur finally decides to follow Merlin on his little escapades and learns more about his manservant than he would have liked.

There's only 24 hours (and that's not enough, to lie like you lie, or love like you love) by ChipInABag

Summary
“Merlin was too driven by grief for his other half that he turned back time, but magic like this always has a price. For Merlin to turn back time he had to give up his memories of that time.”
Or, merlin resets time to the day he enters Camelot and meets Arthur and looses his memories, but everyone and I mean EVERYONE remembers the past timeline
Or, the time travel fix it trope but merlin is the only one who doesn’t know about the past lifetime.
(Ignore that Chapter 4 is actually Chapter 3, i’ll fix it when I get the chance.)

[Podfic] A Sure Bet by WanderPods (RangerJedi67) for PopcornFairy28

Summary
[Audio length: 0:10:06]
Merlin made up his mind.
He was going to tell Arthur.
No beating around the bush, no excuses, he was just going to tell him. No time seemed right, so he would just have to get it out before he lost his nerve for the umpteenth time.
(And, if Arthur did have a problem with it, it wouldn’t be the first time Merlin had knocked him out.)
Marching to Arthur’s chambers, he rehearsed what he was going to say.
“Arthur,” he said, throwing the door open and scaring the tar out of the prince, and then Arthur again because this is not a one-Arthur situation. “I have magic.”Podfic of A Sure Bet by sinivalkoista.

inspired by ann’s tumblr post:
“Due to the amount of scars littering his body, his skin somewhat resembles a mosaic whenever he's accessing his true power as Emrys. His scars shine golden as if he were glowing from within.” (https://www.tumblr.com/lightasthesun/676749665738293248/new-incoming-godmerlin-hc-due-to-the-amount-of)

Summary
The final battle happened and Merlin would not let Arthur die. So Arthur finds himself back in the past when his father was still king. Arthur decides to change things to do what is best for Camelot, and Merlin.
Different series of events that could have happened in my Time Travel and a Dragon, I mean a PenDragon story if Arthur was still human and didn't think like a dragon/human hybrid.

Summary
With Morgana safely learning Magic and with Camelot on the brink of disaster (as if that wasn't every week), Merlin is struggling to find his place at Arthur's side. Though, he now has a place at Arthur's side, which is great.
Evil plots and more following roughly from when Morgause begins to appear in the series.

Summary
The price of a king's life is a heavy one, and Merlin is willing to pay it in full. He offers himself to the Sidhe without a second thought. But for Arthur, the cost of his own survival at the expense of his loyal friend is a fate far worse than death.
OR
Where Merlin makes it with Arthur to the Sidhe, but has to pay a high price to save him.
Mostly a transcription of my tumblr posts. Written in a mix of novel and script format.

Summary
Merlin leans against him, eyes closed. He fell asleep nearly an hour ago, slumping into Arthur’s side without a second thought, nevermind that the both of them are already propped up against a tree. It’s terribly inappropriate– but they’re the only ones out here, and Arthur doesn’t have the heart (nor the desire) to wake him.

Summary
Being two sides of the same coin is not enough. No, there also needs to be magic involved that binds them together so that Merlin can neither stray far from Arthur nor live his life in peace for a single bloody day.

Summary
Rewrite of Season 3 episode 4 from Gwaine's POV. This sticks very closely to what we see in the series just with a little insight into Gwaine's thoughts and feelings. With a sprinkle of Merwaine for good times!
