    Summary

    “I don't see what could possibly be funny, anyway.” Merlin adopted a tone of nonchalance, blinking past the tears. “Lancelot’s a catch, Gwen. You can't deny it.”

    Gwen made a long, indignant sputtering sound. Merlin met her disbelieving stare with a cheeky smile. “I’m sorry, what? Lancelot’s a catch?"

    Merlin shrugged. “Well, he is. He’s noble and brave and considerate and definitely not a prat. I’m just saying, if I had the opportunity…”


    Or, one spring afternoon in Camelot, Merlin and Gwen tell the tale of love, friendship, and the tendency of life to always follow the most unexpected paths.

    Summary

    "Lancelot! I've missed you, my friend!"

    "And I you, Merlin. How were your negotiations with the Druids?" asked Lancelot. Their arms were still around each other, and Lancelot held Lord Merlin's face in his hands. The gesture was tender, which only confused Erec further.

    So far, there was not a single detail about Camelot that Erec had learned that did not confuse him further.


    Or, the Knights of the Round Table, the Court Sorcerer of Camelot, and other assorted cryptids (as told by Sir Erec, Knight of the Round Table).

    Summary

    Navigating life events that turn his world upside down, including his ascension to the throne and a revelation that rocks him to his core, Arthur's ever-evolving relationship with Merlin becomes the most important of his life. No one ever said love was easy.

    “I would die before I hurt you,” Arthur said, his voice strangled. “I would kill anyone who ever tried to do you harm and it pains me to think that you could ever fear me.”

    “I don’t understand,” Merlin said breathlessly. “You’re the king, you – ”

    “I’m not standing here as a king, Merlin!” Arthur shouted, his voice breaking as he did so. “I’m standing here as a man, a man who believed he knew you completely, a man who thought you were the one constant in his life, a man who thought…who thought you were his,” he finished, horrified to feel tears pricking his eyes.
