Summary
Set one year post-war.
'“Do you remember?”
“What?”
“What it felt like. My magic.” His blue eyes are expectant and wide, like Baz holds all the answers to his problems. He should really stop thinking that, because Baz doesn’t have any answers really, just more problems. They’re a bundle of problems, the two of them.
Before Baz can formulate an answer, he continues, “Because I know how yours feels, like fire, but it’s, well... Not the same.” He does the cute thing with his nose, where he scrunches it up and doesn’t look at Baz.'
or, in which simon and baz try and have an emotional discussion.

Summary
Merlin's job as PR junior on the royal account isn't as glamorous as people believe: Most nights, he's saving Arthur, Duke of York and black sheep of the family, from possibly committing monarchy-shattering shenanigans. When tragedy hits and Arthur is now second in line to the throne, the public doesn't react too favourably to the new Prince of Wales.
A solution has to be found and Merlin's contribution is key to the problem: Roped into posing as Arthur's fake boyfriend, he's supposed to make Arthur's popularity levels rise with his steadfast and relatable presence and elevate him from scandalous rake to romantic figure...

Summary
Merlin is the perfect boyfriend - sweet, caring, sexy. And he's Arthur's best friend.
When Merlin suddenly announces that he doesn't want to date right now, it's Arthur who benefits from Merlin's newfound spare time. From friendly dinner dates to watching movies to all the little gestures - where does the friendzone end and something else begin?
In hindsight, maybe his best friend kissing him on the kiss-cam at a rugby game should have clued Arthur in?
*-*
A classical university take on "Didn't Know they were Dating", written for Prompt #22, Kiss cam! from Merlin Fluffalooza 2021My fluffy offering full of autumn winds, hopefully feeling like a warm cup of cocoa by the fire :-)

Summary
Merlin leaves him notes around the house—titbits of his day or some useless fact he found somewhere. Arthur keeps them, pins them to the fridge and to the cabinets and into his calendar, taking them out whenever he feels like it.
He writes back, too, and after months, sticky notes can be found in the most absurd places of their house. It makes Arthur smile so often, he fears his face might become stuck like that, after all.
With age, supposedly, comes wisdom. Arthur still needs the occasional reminder that Merlin makes everything more bearable.
