    Summary

    If he'd had a say in the matter, Merlin would not have wanted Arthur to find out by way of Kilgharrah. But that's where an inconvenient sinkhole will get you.

    Summary

    "“Emrys,” said Gaius, raising the Eyebrow of Disappointment and flicking his gaze to where Merlin stood behind Arthur’s chair. “That is who you wish to have as your court sorcerer.”

    Arthur nodded gravely, every eye in the council meeting upon him. “Camelot is dangerously close to division even now that sorcery is legal. We need someone who will unite us all, and I cannot settle for less. I’ll send riders out at first light chasing rumours and follow up any promising leads we have myself.”

    He looked so beautiful when he said it, every inch the king, with the sunlight through the windows turning him gold. His voice had taken on that richness that sometimes infused Arthur’s words – that for the good of the kingdom voice, that let it be so voice, the voice that Merlin had come to understand meant another brick laid on the road to Albion.

    Unfortunately, that voice had been co-opted for a fucking farce."

    Or - In which magic is legal and Merlin is still lying for reasons that are absolutely, totally 100% valid and have nothing to do with his love for Arthur

    Summary

    Ben Parker sighed as he looked up into The Thing's eyes, so expressively human in spite of the rest of his rocky appearance.

    “My fifteen-year-old nephew--who's practically my own little boy!--” he choked out with a tight voice, “h-he can't pass for human anymore. He's scared, and he's isolated, and he just needs someone else to talk to! Someone who can understand. Please."

    _____

    Some alternate realities are unrecognizable, and some are indistinguishable. This one lies somewhere in between.

    Peter Parker's life was derailed when he mutated into a strange human/spider hybrid, and he knows that's not the way things went down for him in other realities. Still, he's determined to forge a new path and make the best of it. Sometimes "the friends we made along the way" really is the greatest treasure anyone could ask for.

    Summary

    “Most of the world doesn’t share your opinion, Mr. Wayne,” Kent interrupted, recapturing Bruce’s attention with a flicker of his scent -- sorrypleasedeference -- and an apologetic tilt of his head, baring his neck.

    Bruce blinked, losing his train of thought briefly. Genuine alpha deference in public? Perhaps Alfred was right, and he was stumbling into early blocker-onset dementia.

     

    Or, imagine solving the entire conflict of Batman V Superman with knotting.
