The Fearsome Sir Martin

by mollrach13

Gwaine 'borrows' Merlin to be his sparring partner in preparation of whatever. Arthur laughingly agrees. The easy morning spar doesn't go quite how Gwaine expected.

Room for Three Not Only

by elletromil

The first time it happens Merlin honestly doesn’t know. Though, in Merlin’s defense there is nothing indicating that this is any different than usual. Wherein Merlin date-crashes Harry and Eggsy's dates without realising it at first. Except, when Merlin tries to give them some space, they don't seem to be happy about it.Update: Now with a gorgeous edit by li-prouvaire (link in the notes)

Absolutely Perfect

by SPowell

Merlin's been shrugging off Arthur's attempts to be friendly. Morgana does something about it. Disclaimer: The characters of Merlin belong to BBC and Shine. I make no profit off this endeavor. It is soley for entertainment purposes.

This Is Not The End of

by orphan_account

Repost, because I accidentally deleted the whole thing instead of a chapter... Arthur had first wandered down to the dragon's keep when he was six years old. He didn't remember all that had passed between him and the giant reptile, but the memorable exchange was still burnt into his thoughts over a dozen years later. Trembling and worried as only a child could be, he'd asked 'will anyone ever love me?' The dragon had chuckled deep in its belly and stretched, resting its head on a claw - as close to the prince as he could get without leaving the large rock formation. 'Young prince, you are but one side of a coin. Rest assured that all you desire shall be granted in your other half.' At Arthur's childish pleading, he had been given a name. Merlin.

Why Arthur Never Gets

by Saphira424

Too many drinks to count later, and Arthur finds himself with a very illegal spell from a druid. Now armed with magic, Arthur begins the long journey of repealing the law. That, and Merlin can never know he has magic. The idiot is too terrified of it, and Arthur can't lose that support.

Merlin has just, in the wake of the debacle with Sophia, figured out that he's hopelessly in love, when Arthur's behaviour suddenly gets a bit erratic, what with the random "thank you"s and the presents and all that.

You Dont Spy at Your

by anivhee

In which Morgana has the brilliant idea of spying Arthur because of Gwen's feelings for him--not because she's interested in Merlin, mind you--and they find things they might not wanted to know. (Or, that time Morgana and Gwen got stuck in Arthur's closet watching Merlin about to show Arthur his... thing).
