Summary
[One hunting trip. That’s all Arthur wanted. One trip that didn’t involve dangerous magical creatures or bandits or other non-traditional hindrances. For once he would like for his biggest problems to be a damp sleeping bag.
But no, it could never be that easy. Arthur’s camp was long forgotten as he dangled from the claws of the dragon. He’d woken up to see a dark figure standing over him and the next thing he knew he was dangling hundreds of meters in the air with a pounding headache.]
Or, Merlin is a dragonlord, the son of the dragonlord Balinor who rules over the dragons in the North. Arthur is the prince Merlin is instructed to kidnap. Balinor is the exasperated father and general who just wanted to legalize magic but accidentally set his son up with the child and heir of his greatest enemy.
Whoops. -

Summary
Arthur was born of magic. Scared and unsure of how to use his power and a father who hates all that is magic, will he and his new friend Merlin be able to learn and co-exist in a world that was made of magic?
Who will magic call her own in the end?Excerpt:
“Can magic corrupt a person?” Arthur hated how weak he sounded, but it is truly something he didn’t understand and he wanted to know the truth.
“Is a sword evil or good?” Merlin countered the question slightly. He knows that Arthur needs to see that magic is neutral that it is the wielder who manipulates it.
“Neither.” Arthur gave Merlin an unsure look.Updates: Sundays

Summary
Arthur had finally put his finger on it.
The thing that had made Merlin stand out, the thing that had intrigued him about the boy ever since the first time he’d met him. The thing that was going to get him killed… Merlin had magic. Not only had it, but used it freely all the bloody time. It was only a matter of time before someone saw him do it, and then they’d report him to the king and Merlin would be dragged out into the courtyard and executed.
Well, not if Arthur had anything to do about it.
Mid series one, Arthur, for once not being totally oblivious, discovers that Merlin has magic. The problem is, having magic gets people killed and Arthur very much prefers Merlin alive. It turns out making sure nobody sees Merlin do magic is rather a full-time job however... -

Summary
“Merlin,” Arthur gasped softly, shivering at the cold air coming through his window, “You shouldn’t be here… it’s not safe—last time you were almost ca—”
“Shhh,” Merlin hushed him as he walked over to the bed. He climbed onto it and sat beside Arthur, reaching up and cupping his face.
“I missed you…” He whispered, a soft, adoring look in his eyes that made Arthur melt.
“I… Missed you too…"
OR
Prince Merlin of Lledrith, son of King Balinor and Queen Hunith, met Prince Arthur of Camelot (of Uther and Ygraine), during a meeting between the Kings to discuss alliances.
Things went downhill with the Kings. Balinor was king of a land of magic and dragons & their lords, Uther a king who fought to wipe out all magic… While a hatred formed between the Kings, neither noticed a bond forming between their sons.
Merlin and Arthur got off on a rocky start, but after leaving for a ride in the woods, they hit it off rather quickly, even with Arthur knowing about Merlin’s magic.
Now, they struggle to hide their relationship from their parents while trying to find a way to get their fathers to compromise on an alliance.

Summary
He imagined what downright scandalous, filthy things Arthur would whisper so sweetly as he denied him anything more, killing him so nicely with anticipation.
“Merlin!” The sorcerer’s eyes shot open. That… That was not from his fantasy. “What are you doing on my bed? Are those my gloves?”
OR

Summary
The time where Emrys was needed the most had already passed, years before his own birth - so he makes a beeline right back to it.“Hello, Arthur” he greeted softly. The baby smiled at its name. “It’s me, your good ol' Merlin – making sure that you don’t die any horrific deaths, because you’re a prat who can’t take care of himself.” The baby made agreeing noises. Merlin huffed.
“Your Royal Highness is as eloquent as ever” he commented, lifting the babe. “Let’s take a little walk now, shall we?”
Arthur giggled.
Merlin took it as a yes.
He overstepped the body of the fainted maid. His little Arthur would have no need for such luxuries during growing up. He was going to be a people’s man, with the education befitting a prince.
He was going to be successful where Merlin’s Arthur wasn’t.
Or, what started as a one-shot and evolved into lots of small stories containing a more modern Arthur, a less exasperated Merlin, the camelotian character relevance and dying expectancy growing and much more!

Summary
The arms squeezed Merlin again once more, lightly in greeting, and that was when it clicked in his mind that Gwaine was not, in fact, the clingy culprit.
He bit back a smile and faced frontwards again; his suspicions confirmed when he was met with blue eyes tiredly blinking open.
“You two could be a bit quieter, you know,” Arthur mumbled, his voice thick with sleep. “Some of us are trying to sleep.”
OR
It was just an average morning for Merlin, Gwaine, & Arthur...or was it?

Summary
Merlin walked over to the wardrobe and began to pick out clothes for the day, as Arthur hurried off the bed and to the mirror. Merlin paused, a pinch of confusion on his face, when he suddenly heard Arthur mutter in awed shock ‘sorcery!’
He also should have taken that as a sign something was wrong. Of course, he didn’t, though.
OR
Uther wakes in Arthur's body and vice versa. Things get...awkward.

Summary
Arthur had always trained to be the best. He did his work, then did some more and then more still. Yet, his father's eyes never glowed in pride. He was never... Good enough. Never strong or fast enough. Never Alpha enough. He had accepted it. Accepted, that, being born a beta, a beta *Prince* he'd have to work all that much more to prove his worth. He had. But why was it so hard?
Merlin never had it easy. But he had his mam, he had his Will and screw the rest, really. Except then, out of the blue, Puberty hit. Now Merlin has it *worse*. Camelot is /not/ a smart place to be. For a secret sorcerer. For a secret, peasant sorcerer. For a secret, peasant, *Alpha* sorcerer. But, well, he'll just keep his head down, learn a healing trade and nothing bad will happen.
