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.)
Thank you for my Beta Reader (And Sibling) @Ntytab Here on Ao3

Summary
After Arthur disobeyed his father and retrieved the Mortaeus flower for Merlin's cure, Arthur's frantic pleading to save Merlin led to a misunderstanding that actually convinced Uther to take the flower to Gaius.
Now all Arthur has to do is explain to Merlin why Uther thinks they are lovers.
And while Uther is supportive of the relationship, he requires it kept secret. But in his paranoia, Uther misinterprets every innocent interaction between the two as something far more intimate, to the embarrassment of everyone involved.
And then the knights begin showing up...

Summary
The Perilous Lands belong to the Dragonborn family, a most ancient noble family who’ve ruled since the Fisher King was injured. They have been treating the Fisher King’s injury ever since to prevent the infection from spreading onto the land, as the land of Elmet was tied to the ancient and powerful sorcerer.
The Dragonborns are warriors, as even the women of the Royal family are trained in combat.
Princess Muriel is the Dragonborn heir to the throne, and is primarily in charge of protecting Elmet’s borders with Camelot due to the many issues at that border in the past.
One day, however, she leads her Knights across the border to help a group of outnumbered Camelotian Knights against a group of bandits who turn out to be human traffickers.
It is like this that she meets Crown Prince Arthur of Camelot. -

Summary
“Baby’s having a bad trip,” Sophia whispered to him, and slipped her slim palm into his. “Just this one last place and we’ll go home, mmm?”
Home, Arthur thought. Home sounded good. Except that instead of the flat he shared with Soph, a flash of white, chalky walls and the susurrus of leather on cobblestone sounding as he walked, and the scent of cooking things, and people-smell, and lavender and rushes, and a distant clash of steel-on-steel made his gut clench and swoop.
A modern-day Arthur is ensorcelled by Sophia.
See notes for elaborations on the warnings; take them in context with the T rating.
