Summary
Only weeks away from being a parent for the second time, Arthur finds himself contemplating all the things he had missed with Balinor. Though he knew it was no fault of his own he’d been held captive by Uther for those precious first months, Arthur can’t stop himself from feeling regret.
Balinor wants to help his dad feel better, but when his spell goes awry…well, you can bet he’s going to be grounded for all eternity. At least as soon as Arthur figures out a way back home.
Or the third installment of The Once and Future Dad’s with some family bonding and time travel gone wrong.

Summary
Merlin, secret sorcerer, and not so secret Alpha makes a serious splash on his arrival in Camelot. Secret Omega Arthur now has to survive it.
Lots of tropes, I have no shame, and random additional characters when I felt like it. Some bits of canon but again only when I felt thus inclined; and I changed half of it. Maximum self indulgence included as standard.

Summary
After Arthur disobeyed his father and retrieved the Mortaeus flower for Merlin's cure, Arthur's frantic pleading to save Merlin led to a misunderstanding that actually convinced Uther to take the flower to Gaius.
Now all Arthur has to do is explain to Merlin why Uther thinks they are lovers.
And while Uther is supportive of the relationship, he requires it kept secret. But in his paranoia, Uther misinterprets every innocent interaction between the two as something far more intimate, to the embarrassment of everyone involved.
And then the knights begin showing up...

Summary
Merlin thought he lost when he sent Arthur into the lake, thinking his magic failed the late king, that he failed the late king.
But there's one thing he forgot about, how good he is at time manipulation.
Now he has to navigate his past, fix mistakes, and figure out why no ones acting like they're supposed to.
It's not like they also travelled to the past, that would be ridiculous, right?(Based on a tumblr post I saw a while back and the merlin hyper fixation came in full force)

Summary
Arthur has always taken Merlin on every mission — unarmoured, untrained, endlessly reckless.
It never used to matter.
But lately, every danger feels sharper. Every close call lasts too long.
And Merlin is starting to notice the way Arthur hovers… and how the prince’s worry is beginning to look a lot like something else.
A slow-burn story about devotion disguised as duty, love revealed through quiet choices, and the people who become home when the world turns dangerous.
Love wins — even when it has to fight for it.
Written with a companion playlist (linked in the notes) :)
