    Summary

    Fools' Day, the festivity where the roles of masters and servants are reversed for a day, against all odds marked a milestone in Arthur and Merlin's friendship. Merlin would have never seen it coming, but it brought about so many little changes in their relationship, all of them for the better. One year later, when the festivity comes again —alongside Merlin's birthday—, Arthur and he are not at the same point they were one year prior.
    Now that they are closer than ever, will this year's Fools' Day still be as world-turning as the first one?

    Or:

    If you happened to read Fools' Day and you ever wondered what happened with those two idiots in love after that day, here is your answer exactly one year later.

    Summary

    “No,” he pleads. "Father, please. Merlin is not to blame for anything. I’ll accept any punishment you want to give me, but please..." he can't lose Merlin again. He can not.

    Uther seems to sense his anguish, because a bit of bewilderment creeps into his harsh expression.

    “What is it about this boy?” There's a dangerous suspicion in the king's voice. “He makes my son risk his life and the lives of his knights for him. And the Great Dragon, for some reason, keeps him alive and uses him as a hostage. Why?" he walks towards the prince almost threateningly. “What else are you hiding from me, Arthur?” he demands, his eyes growing colder.

    OR

    After Arthur rescues Merlin from The Great Dragon he has some explaining to do. To the king, and maybe to himself too. Sequel to "Saving the Dragonlord's son".

    Summary

    Merlin suffers a small accident that turns him into a five-year-old kid. While Gaius works on an antidote, Arthur agrees to take care of Merlin, unaware that he will embark on a crazy week in which, thanks to this strange and at the same time familiar child, he will get to know his servant better and begin to understand what he really feels for Merlin.

    This is a tale full of Arthur being protective, of Merlin being Merlin, and of the two of them being the best duo in the history of television. It contains magically appearing chickens, overly sincere children, princes wanting to be swallowed up by the earth, veiled confessions, bedtime stories, entrenched secrets and agonizing doubts. Featuring Gwen being the kindest and most generous soul in Camelot and Lancelot and Gwaine being the great friends that they always are. The rest of the knights, Gaius, and a decrepit Uther complete the scene.

    Warning: in this story everyone adores Merlin. After all, isn't this what the original show is about?

    Summary

    Arthur and Merlin have a special relationship. They always have, even when they were prince and servant. While many question it when first noticing, eventually it becomes an understanding in Camelot—and even among some other countries—that where there is Arthur, there is Merlin. And, where there is Merlin, there is Arthur.
    Or

    Arthur and Merlin's relationship as witnessed and explained by others.

     

    Also, or

    Five times someone realizes that Merlin is the Queen, one time Merlin realizes it himself, and one time he owns it.

    Summary

    “Lady Morgana,” The lord said, his brows furrowing as he took a step back “Pardon me for the assumption, but I was told the king’s ward never left the East tower?” He asked and gestured vaguely around the gardens. Morgana smiled and Merlin smirked from his hiding place as he watched Arthur consider swooping in to save the man, but clearly thinking better of it.

    “Ah, of course.” Morgana said “You must be confused. There are two wards of the king. I’m afraid you won’t be able to meet Merlin today.”

    Or

    Uther took in Balinor’s child as a baby and claimed him as his ward. Merlin thinks he’s being held hostage, but whatever.

    Summary

    “You-” Ygraine said, stepping up to point a finger in Uther’s face. “You are a liar and a murderer. The fact you think someone as sweet and caring as Vivienne is destined to marry you is a tragedy in itself, but if you expect me to hand over my brother’s rightful claim to Camelot’s throne-”

    My claim to Camelot’s throne,” Uther threw back, face growing more red as Arthur looked between his parents in utter bewilderment. Merlin didn’t blame him. He had envisioned Uther and Ygraine’s love story to be more… well, less based in war and battles.

    Ygraine’s eyes narrowed as she grabbed a goblet of wine and threw it in Uther’s face. A few of the guards shifted, but Uther only raised a hand to pause them, spitting out the wine with furious eyes.

    “You,” Ygraine said coldly. “Are unworthy to sit upon a stool, let alone a throne.”

    From a few feet away, Balinor scoffed as he sipped from his own goblet. “I kind of like having her as a hostage, Uther. She livens up the place.”

    Or

    In a desperate attempt to save Arthur at Camlann, Merlin tries to reverse time. It works perhaps a tad too well.

    Summary

    “So he’s a god?” Gwaine had asked.

    “No?”

    “Wait, why’d you answer that like a question?”

    “It’s really complicated–”

    “So they worship him.”

    “Yes but—"

    “They hold a festival for when his power was first felt by everyone.” This one was Elyan. Both he and Gwaine exchange a look of understanding.

    “Look–”

    “And they say he is the chosen champion of the Triple Goddess.”

    Percival sighed at his friends as they continued on with their, admittedly well-thought out, theory. It was times like these where he missed Lancelot, who he knew would have also brought up some interesting points that would have most likely fueled the flames to his friends’ assumptions.

    In which Merlin is one of Santa's elves and mince pies are dangerous distractions, particularly when they're guarded by handsome visions of perfection.

    It's not a good idea to stop and gaze at the pretty blond man when you're supposed to be helping deliver presents to children all over Camelot and only have a ten second delivery slot at each house...

    Summary

    It would be just his luck—his inheritance, really—to land in a Camelot that quivered at any notion of different, unsure, or even extraordinary.

    Joke’s on them all, because something wonderfully extraordinary lived right in the heart of the city. And if Arthur remembered correctly, it usually walked through town right after lunch.

    “I heard the Pendragons have a weird beastly type of magic, they can sniff out anyone's true abilities and try to bond with the strongest they can find,” Merlin stiffened as Will spoke but couldn't help leaning in either. “I heard it messes with their minds and bodies too, they don't even have the same kinda prick that we do.”

    ~~~

    In an Albion where magic isn't under threat. Where there is no prophecy to fulfill, and magic works in mysterious ways. Can two side of the same coin still become one whole.

    Summary

    He saw Arthur burst from the forest, wide-eyed and pale-faced. Sweat plastered his hair to his forehead, and fear locked his expression in its clutches. One hand stretched out as if to grab him. So near and yet so far.

    The moment fled. Gravity won, and there wasn't even time for Merlin to cry out as the bandit's weight dragged him over the cliff and into the stormy waters below.

    ****

    When Merlin is hurt during a bandit attack, Arthur finds himself torn between the longings of his heart and his duties to the crown.
