    Summary

    When Arthur and his knights are led into a trap and captured on Dyfed’s territory, Gwen is prompted to invoke the right of single combat. But, when Dyfed’s chosen champion is revealed to be a powerful sorceress, Merlin must take on the guise of Emrys to fight for Camelot. In doing so, the young warlock will discover just how much he is willing to sacrifice for his friends, and for the future he believes Arthur Pendragon is destined to create.

    “It had never been the dragon’s prophecy he believed in so fiercely– it was Arthur. If Arthur died here, it would be like losing a part of himself. He would forever be incomplete. Severed. Merlin would remain frozen in time.”

    Summary

    “Shut up!” he yells, and it’s right here where he makes the biggest mistake in Mercia’s visit.
    Having your head smashed into a concrete wall isn’t something Merlin would recommend. “Don’t you fucking dare yell at me. Do you understand? How dare you be so insolent. You know, I was going to give you a small kick and be done with it, let the Prince deal with you himself as I’m sure he does. But no one disrespects me like that, boy. You hear me?”

    Merlin knows that Arthur doesn't truly hurt him because he wants to, he knows that the prince is just used to horseplay. Merlin also knows that Arthur would never beat him, or any servant for that matter, and he's secure in his knowledge of that. Visiting knights, however, seem to have a different idea of what happens behind closed doors, especially when they see all the things Arthur throws at his servant. So, if the prince can hurt Merlin, why can't they?

    Summary

    Break the Cutie - aka: When a sweet and loveable character, who you adore and root for, is slowly tormented in front of your very eyes. And well, Merlin is awfully cute after all... :)

    Long story short, I’ve set myself a little challenge to write a fic for every single episode of Merlin. 65 episodes means 65 opportunities to hurt my favourite character because who doesn't love some good ol' whumpy angst! (I’m definitely going to regret this decision but I’m determined to complete them all.)

    (These are all standalone fics!)
