Summary
Since Arthur was a boy he has known that he is to marry for Camelot rather than for himself, so he never stops to consider his own feelings, or just who he might actually wish to marry — had he had a choice in the matter. He hopes that he will come to love his future wife, but does not expect or need it. After all, he has no knowledge of what love really feels like. Well, until Merlin shows up.
And who knows, maybe Arthur does have a choice.

Summary
“I have my doubts,” Arthur went on, “but I trust Gaius’ judgment. I’m leaving in the morning with my men. If you want, you may accompany us, but with or without you, we’re going to retake Camelot from that dragon.”
All eyes in the room were focused on him.
The chances of the quest turning from "kill a dragon" into "kill Merlin" were higher than flood waters in the rainy season.
He stood.
“Well, count me out.”OR
Five years ago, the Great Dragon burned Camelot. Now, Arthur is determined to reclaim his homeland and his rightful throne.
Merlin is not.

Summary
Bereft of the emotions that should have come at the implications of the sentence, Uther's tone is stoic as if his own son is a common prisoner. “You are to leave Camelot by nightfall. If we find you have returned to the grounds of this kingdom we will have no choice but to carry out your original sentence in the highest order.”
Exiled and disinherited? Brilliant.
An AU where Uther, under the influence of Troll!Catrina and Goblin!Gaius legitimately disinherits Arthur and he must deal with the consequences thereof in an attempt to reclaim Camelot.

Summary
'None shall be harmed. There has been enough.'
This time, Hunith watches everyone’s faces. Clearly they hear it- feel it- too.
'Each person in this room has played a part in my child’s destiny. It is time you understand.'
“Understand what…?”, Percival asks quietly.
“Your child?”, Arthur echoes, much more forceful.
Hunith’s face whips to Merlin. His brows are drawn together, his eyes so distant, on something unfathomable. This is the part of her son Hunith can’t reach. This is beyond her.
As much as it pains her, Magic was his mother first.
'Relearn the past. It will become clear.'------------------------
Magic decides its child has been alone long enough. It brings those relevant to the crystal cave to share some of its memories pertaining to its child. Merlin and his friends watch him arrive in Camelot from a fresh set of eyes. -

Summary
Uther finds out about Merlin's magic. Though he is intent on trying to kill Merlin, it never seems to stick, so they agree on a sort of truce in the meanwhile.
Arthur would be completely oblivious to all this going on, except that he accidentally stumbled upon the very first meeting between his father and Merlin, and now he has to deal with the utter chaos they think he doesn't know about.

Summary
Which was why when Gwaine had suggested the idea of a party, Arthur took it, hoping it would be like a get out of a jail free card, whisking him away from all of his responsibilities.
Except it hadn’t been.
If anything, it had only dragged him back into another cell, one that he had never seen coming.
Which was how he managed to get himself in this situation. With him sitting in the backseat of a car on the way back home, squeezed inside with a drunken Gwaine in the middle seat currently vomiting into a bag, and Merlin on the other end, his best friend that he had accidentally confessed his feelings for at the party.
Oh, and had he mentioned that Gwaine had thrown up on him right after he confessed his feelings?
Gods, he was so fucked.
Or
After accidentally confessing his feelings for his best friend and then promptly been thrown up on, it's been a pretty rough day. And feeling as though said best friend was going to reject him, he didn't think things were going to get much better.
But perhaps, not all hope is lost... and maybe Gwaine isn't so bad at giving advice after all.

Summary
Alright. Merlin’s going to be honest. Is the absolute best at hiding his magic from people? No. Is he a damn sight near better than some other bastards would be if they had his magic? Yes, yes, he is, thank you very much. They would do quite well to remember that he is magic, and he’s had it since he was born, so he knows what he’s doing when it comes to knowing that he has it. Yes, thank you, he doesn’t go around doing every single thing he could with magic because well, then he’d never get to do much of anything ever again.
And that would be boring.

Summary
In the year 2082, thirty Sorcerers who called themselves “The Pure” took over England in a violent coup, established a magical supremacy, and ruled until Uther Pendragon and his underground forces defeated them. Uther became dictator, taking charge of the country in its State of Emergency. All sorcerers tied to The Pure were publicly executed. Sorcery was declared illegal. Uther's peacekeeping Patronus force crushes rebellions. All who are suspected of practicing magic disappear or are executed. England grows increasingly restless under Uther Pendragon. Laws on sorcery have begun to change in other countries, and civil unrest stirs again in England herself.
In this changing political landscape, Uther Pendragon’s son Arthur finds himself at University, caught between his father’s expectations and his own growing unease about his father’s policies and persecution of magic. His friend and classmate from childhood, Merlin Astur, has kept his secret as long as he's been alive. In the face of a changing world, threats to his closest friends, and an ancient Druid legend, he struggles to keep his magic hidden while protecting those dear to him.

Summary
The first time one of them tells each other they love you is close to three a.m. when both are attempting to fall asleep.
With the summer heat and their tiring work, it should have been easy to sleep, almost like a blessing to finally close their eyes. And yet it had found to be challenging for them, both with restless minds, thinking about the other right beside them.
But slowly they were starting to finally fall asleep, their eyes becoming heavier the more they tried to stay awake, their breathing finally slowing...
When, of course, that's when it happens.
OR:
Four times Merlin and Arthur admit to the other one that they love each other without the other realizing (cause they're oblivious idiots), and the one time they finally notice.

Summary
OH LAWD ANOTHER SUMMARY.
This work is a prequel to my story, It's Always Been Us. While it is not necessary to read It's Always Been Us before this one, you'll want to read it if you want a smutty ending. *wink*
Summary: Arthur is a himbo who doesn't realize that the perfect person for him is his best friend. When Arthur is nearly killed, Merlin is there to help him through things.
This story features: Merlin pining over said himbo, Morgana being a supportive big sister, Arthur and Merlin being so painfully gay it hurts, Sophia trying to murder Arthur by strangling him (this gets a bit dark, so strap in folx), Arthur suffering PTSD as a result, and Merlin being the best supportive friend one could ask for. If this sounds like your jam, read on.
This is part 2 of the Always Series (NOT Part 5, there's an Ao3 glitch).

Summary
Business is booming at the Rising Sun thanks to a new game called “Am I The Clotpole?” The rules are simple: people write in with their interpersonal disputes, an anonymous arbiter determines who was the clotpole in those disagreements, and tavern goers enjoy a night of gossip and reasonably priced drinks.
Even though his mouthy manservant proclaimed him a clotpole years ago, King Arthur loves the game, as it gives him an excuse to spend more time with Merlin.
The game is bringing people closer, including Arthur and Merlin, and all seems to be well until Merlin starts disappearing on Sundays, refusing to tell Arthur where he’s gone or what he’s been doing. When Arthur’s curiosity gets the better of him, he makes several unexpected discoveries about the man he’s been secretly in love with for years.
Will Arthur handle these revelations with grace and confess his own secret, or will he earn the title of Camelot’s biggest clotpole?
