    Summary

    Kaz, sick and injured, decides to hide out at the empty Van Eck house. Unfortunately it isn’t as empty as he’d thought…

    -

    “You’re ill,” Mrs. Ghafa says, in a tone that does not suggest a willingness to compromise. “And you’re hurt. I admit we do not know all the customs of Kerch, but surely one does not leave an injured child lying on the kitchen floor.”

    “I am not a—,” Kaz snaps, ire up. “Go inflict your help on someone who wants it.” He pushes himself into a sitting position with his good hand, fully intending to stand and storm dramatically out the door.

    Strangely he finds himself on his back in the bed a second later, a cool cloth draped across his forehead.

    “You fainted again. Don’t sit up so quickly,” Mrs. Ghafa scolds.

    Summary

    "I'm not a god!" Merlin says, very triumphantly. "I un-godded myself!"

    "You were never a god to begin with," Arthur reminds him.

    Summary

    Arthur could see his father glaring down - face red and eyes narrowed as he looked at Merlin with clear distaste.

    "Once this over, sorcerer...I’ll burn you."

    "You’ve already tried that," Merlin’s voice answered and Arthur had to bite his fist to keep from making any noise. “You need to accept you can’t kill me… Hand me that blanket, please.”

    “I’m sure there must be some method… Beheading?”

    “No, we tried that.”

    “Hanging?”

    “I just sort of... Swung there, remember?”

    There was another pause.

    “I should have made you keep that dragon below the castle so I could feed you to it.”

    “Kilgharrah? He won’t eat me, but if you want to torture me than making me listen to his nonsense for an hour might do it.” Merlin said and there was a soft sigh from the other end of the room. “I’m glad you agreed to help me though. Usually I have to do the grunt work of saving Arthur myself.”

    “I can’t wait to kill you.” 

    Or

    Uther finds out about Merlin’s magic, but can’t seem to kill him. Merlin is just trying to protect Arthur. They become a begrudgingly effective duo. Arthur doesn't understand why they think he isn't noticing this.

    Summary

    Arthur has traveled to sign a treaty of friendship with other kingdoms, when he realizes they've intended to set him up to marry as well. He doesn't want to marry for the sake of marrying, so he pulls a clumsy, crowned Merlin in with false talk that they married quietly.

    Arthur's true in saying he wants to marry for love, because he chooses Merlin for more than one reason.

    Summary

    There is a rule in Camelot: Never hurt, harm, insult, or attack Merlin if you wish to live.

    Those who broke the rules, faced the consequences.

    Or the 5 times Merlin's friends are there to his rescue/care for him, + the 1 time he saves them all at once.
