Summary
Being two sides of the same coin is not enough. No, there also needs to be magic involved that binds them together so that Merlin can neither stray far from Arthur nor live his life in peace for a single bloody day.

Summary
In which Merlin is immortal, used all of his free time to do things because he'd go crazy otherwise and got filthy rich like an old vampire without meaning to, hung out with Shakespeare and a bunch of other people because why not, got gifted a pretty Cadillac that he hates by a charity he'd forgotten he'd donated to, and has a too-high alcohol tolerance for his liking.
Oh, and he bought Avalon Lake.
Because "Shut up, I just like looking at this lake and no, I don't need help."
And a bunch of other mansions and estates and penthouses all over the country because "What if he wants to live somewhere else, I need to have OPTIONS."

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
„Ich cesty boli predurčené už dávno,“ riekol Kilgharrah. „Ale nikdy nemali dovoliť, aby sa do seba zamilovali. Vždy sme vedeli, že sú ako dve strany tej istej mince – ale nikto nepredpokladal, ako doslovne to osud myslel.“

Summary
What if it was Arthur that knew about the destiny to the full extent, not Merlin?
Merlin is not just a wizard, anymore than Arthur is just a boy. The most powerful sorcerer to ever walk the earth, who could rival Dumbledore at such a young age is destined to protect and help Arthur unite the lands of Albion and bring peace to muggles and magic folk, joining them like they once were. Without Merlin, Arthur will never succeed or become king. Without Merlin, Harry would never live long enough to defeat the dark wizard that is Lord Voldemort.
If he finds out, exactly what his destiny is, that could be disastrous for everyone involved.
When Arthur first comes in control with Merlin, their magic collides in a negative way as they both intended ill-will on the other person. It was then that Arthur understood what was truly at stake.

Summary
Tell me what hurts you and I will ail it. Tell me what scares you and I will protect you, he tried to say. Tell me what burdens you and I will carry it. Anything to not watch you suffer.
But no words left his mouth, for he too was afraid to bare his soul.

Or: Merlin has spent the last two centuries building the farm Arthur had always dreamed of, but when his King returns, he realises that time cannot heal all wounds. It is time for him to finally take fate into his own hands.

Meanwhile, Yuuji really wishes he’d paid better attention to his World literatures class.

Summary
Uther abandons Arthur at birth. He remains in Tintagel and is raised by a good Nimueh and educated by Catha warriors. The forgotten prince becomes a talented fighter, but he remains lonely and unloved. He is kind and noble, and without Uther's influence he never becomes a prat. A new prophecy emerges, one that still involves Emrys. Once of age, Arthur leaves Tintagel and joins with Emrys; together, they discover their shared destiny. This story is more about character than action. It is about a journey to find purpose and love.

Summary
The fragile trust between Arthur and Merilyn is no longer a secret hope—it is real, tangible, and dangerously alive. For the first time, Arthur sees magic not as a weapon, but as part of the woman he loves. Their bond deepens, even as the shadow of destiny presses closer. But love does not erase the weight of prophecy, nor the enemies waiting to tear them apart.
Yet the greatest revelation lies not in vengeance, but in blood. Merilyn’s long-buried secret, her son emerges into the light. His existence changes everything: for Merilyn, for Arthur, and for the destiny of Camelot itself. Whispers of the boy ripple through the Old Religion, binding his fate to the same prophecy that foretells Arthur’s rise and Merilyn’s sacrifice. Allies will question her loyalty. Enemies will seek to use him. And Arthur must decide if love can survive the truth that destiny has hidden from them both.

Summary
Merlin visits Lake Avalon every year on the anniversary of Arthur's death. Every year, he makes the same wish - that he would once again be reunited with Arthur.
Merlin lies down in the grassy outcrop that replaced the dried up lake and dreams of Arthur. He still thinks he's dreaming when Lake Avalon fills back up with thrashing, frigid water and threatens to take him away from the land of the living.
When Merlin is drowning, he dreams of Arthur's face. He dreams that he feels Arthur's strong arms holding him once again, pulling him from the grasp of the lake and onto the safety of the shoreline.
Merlin still thinks he's dreaming when Arthur speaks to him and reassures him that he's here to stay. It's almost too real for Merlin to handle.
But, what if it wasn't a dream, after all?

Summary
“Merlin,” Arthur sighs. The man’s body is heavy; his skin pale. “Just hold me, please.” It could almost be disguised as long-suffering if Merlin ignored the rest. A quirk of the lips would be all that Merlin would need to know that it would all be OK. If he ignored the tiredness of his voice, the upcoming quiet, the slowing of that thready hum. Almost like a little bird fluttering against its cage. He tried not to think of the terrible warmth of blood on his fingers that would soon be a terrible cold.
