Summary
In the midst of capturing a magical creature, Merlin is transported to a world where Camelot is home to thousands of magic-users. King Uther is nowhere to be found, Arthur is a prince again, and Queen Ygraine sits on the throne.
Merlin plans to get back to his own reality, to his own Camelot. To do that, however, he must have access to information that is inside a shielded castle protected by powerful sorcerers. The only way in is to participate in the Apprentice Exam and be an apprentice to a magic-user included in Camelot's court. Should be easy . . . right?
Conspiracies are afoot and Merlin just knows that, somehow, he is or will be involved. Just his luck.

Summary
Like he’d done again and again since he was nine years old, Dick Grayson silently took a burden from his father and made it his own.
Fics, mostly centred around Dick Grayson, that all take place in my version of DC canon.

Summary
They were quiet for a long moment, two birds nesting on a rooftop under the haze of the Gotham fog.
“You’ll catch me?” Robin whispered, words almost lost to the night air.
Robin watched him in a way that was different to the circus, different to Batman, different to the people he saved. He watched and he mimicked and he looked up to Nightwing in a way that made it all feel worth it.
“Every time,” Nightwing promised.
.
Dick Grayson was eighteen when he got a baby brother.
He was twenty-one when he lost him.
(He is twenty-five when he gets him back)

Summary
Dick has always been the responsible one—the one who holds the line, keeps his cool, and plays by the rules. But after a long night of venting to Jason Todd about how he envies Red Hood's freedom to unleash hell, Dick comes home to find a custom-made Red Hood suit waiting for him. The note? Classic Jason: "Go nuts, Dickhead."
He knows it’s a bad idea. He knows he shouldn’t.
But Jason’s out of town. The city’s still a mess. And maybe—just this once—it’s time he stopped playing nice.

Summary
After the impact of Dark magic on their armies in the war against Xadia, the other kingdoms apply pressure on Katolis to ensure a repeat offence doesn't occur. As a result, Callum's tasked with assessing the danger of any artifacts King Viren left behind in the High Mage's chambers. Only, Callum falls mysteriously ill after the work commences, and coming off the back of a plot against Ezran, they can only assume the Crown is being targeted again.
“Why would they go after me?” Callum asks, like Soren can’t be serious. “Ez is the king.” Callum leans back like that settles the matter.
Soren softens, “Exactly.” He comes closer, brushing a hand over the wood of his father’s desk. His chest pangs. “You’re not the king, so you’re an easier target.”
