Summary
Lucerys’ petty side relished in bringing Aemond a semblance of the anguish he felt these last few months. That was, if he cared to face Lucerys over the consequences of their actions. Lucerys wanted to see the panic set in after Aemond saw the result of their union. For Aemond to regret having discarded him after their one night together.
At the end of all this drama, Lucerys would have his heirs for Driftmark. Talk of his own bastardy would cease on account of his beloved boys. The boys' appearance proved Lucerys was legitimate after all. Once Lucerys died, there would be an actual Velaryon ruling Driftmark.
He wouldn’t know if this plan would come to fruition until he started informing his family of his sons.
------
A hidden adoption AU where Lucerys Velaryon passes off twin Targaryen bastards, that so happened to be Velaryon, as his own sons.

Summary
And then it hits Uther, like a fork of lightning: "Fine, then, no Merlin for a week."
"Oh, no," one of the knights, Sir Leon, gasps.
Arthur, whose jaw has been hanging open this entire time, finally regains his abilities of speech. "What?" he says. "No Merlin?"
+++
As punishment for Arthur's disobedience, Uther bans all contact with his manservant for a week.
It works out about as well as you could expect.

Summary
Merlin has been unconscious for three weeks, ever since his eyes burned traitorous gold and the words of the Old Religion fell from his lips and most of the immortal army fell at the spot, their organs imploding from the inside. Magical exhaustion, Gaius calls it, but Arthur doesn’t care what it’s called, he just wants Merlin back.

Summary
He and Mordred have been in the armory for the better part of half an hour, supposedly polishing swords, but Merlin can say with a fair bit of confidence that he’s the only one actually doing anything. Mordred has been rubbing the same spot on his sword with the same cloth for twenty minutes, heedless of the fact that if it gets any shinier it’ll probably blind them both, and maybe Merlin’s just being paranoid but there’s something about it that makes the hair on the back of his neck prickle and his magic hover on the tips of his fingertips. Mordred has a faraway, slightly vacant look on his face, so Merlin isn’t nearly as surprised as he’d like to be when Mordred asks abruptly, “How do you do it? How do you kill all these sorcerers and magical creatures and live with yourself?”
Or: one meaningful conversation between Merlin and Mordred leads to another, and then another, and before he knows it, Merlin's getting ready to throw caution to the winds and join forces with Mordred.
