    Summary

    As a gift for King Arthur's selfless show of humility, the clan's Seer sought him out personally. Merlin had to shut his mouth halfway through explaining the dangers of knowing your own fate before it happens—at the very least, he let it be known that whatever Arthur does see is not the only outcome. For fear of sounding rude or ungrateful, Merlin left it at that and Arthur took her hand and disappeared into the tent without a second thought.

    Arthur emerges as a changed man—someone Merlin hardly recognizes anymore.

    Summary

    In his determination to protect Arthur at any cost, Merlin lands himself in a situation that neither of them know how to cope with. And when a powerful enchantment is crafted to make sure that it never happens again, Arthur's dignity is the least of his concerns.

    He tells himself it's for Merlin's own good.

     

    Or,

    Arthur can feel Merlin's magic—from wherever he is, and especially in places he'd rather not.

    Summary

    In which Arthur kisses Merlin in front of his girlfriend.

    And Merlin, well.

    Merlin's fucking engaged.

    -

    Or,

    Arthur's pushing thirty and yet, he chooses the worst possible moment in history to make a move on his best friend, Merlin.

    Trouble is, they could've been happy once. But for some people, it's difficult to walk away from someone when you spend your entire life waiting for them.

    Unfortunately for Arthur, his life was over the moment he saw the ring. And thus, he ran.

    Mouth-first, then ass-backwards in the opposite direction.

    Summary

    Everyone had their secrets, Arthur understood this more than others. To the majority of his kingdom, the truth of his very existence was a secret. While the people can only speculate and ponder amongst themselves about the King's private life, Merlin didn't have to.

    He knew everything.

    But it appeared that Arthur's trust was purely his own. There was next to nothing on the other side, as he'd soon come to realize. Merlin, with how honest and noble he appeared to be—if not by blood—had failed to share the most basic detail about himself.

    That he'd been... Courted. Of all things. By a knight, no less.

    Sir Lancelot.

    Summary

    Merlin's eyes can no longer adjust to the water that surrounds him now, the last kindling of golden hue dissipating into nothing as he mouth's his final words. He can already feel the pressure against his chest as he sinks to the very bottom.

    There, may he rest.

    -

    It's 2024 and Arthur isn't exactly thrilled about handing in his thesis. While he's grateful for the life he worked so hard for, lately- there's been this indescribable feeling hovering above his shoulder. It's almost like it all feels false and... Stagnant.

    He swears there's something tangible and just out of reach, but it calls for him at night, clawing it's way out from the darkest recesses of his mind. It's when he falls asleep again that Arthur fears he may never wake up.
