Summary
Like- she’s met pretty girls before. Been in love with one, even. Never in her life, though, has she felt like she might have a heart attack because of some goddamn eye contact. She feels worse than when she thought she was going to die in that elevator, like a million times worse, which means she is probably going to actually die this time.
Is this how Steve feels all the time? Like, he just looks at a girl and that’s it, he can feel himself falling? Because she gets it. God, she actually understands why he’s such a dumbass if he feels this disarmed all the time.

Summary
See here’s the thing- when your best friend is an incubus, it’s sort of a foregone conclusion that you’ll probably develop a teenie weenie crush on them. At least, that’s what Mikey tells herself. And if your incubus best friend brings home a beautiful werewolf boyfriend, it’s only natural that you’ll want him as well. Probably.
or
Mikey keeps walking in on her roommate and his boyfriend in increasingly compromising positions, and it's giving her a complex.

Summary
Michael only got a C in maths, but even he knows that the probability of this scenario playing out every day for two months is ridiculously low. Still, it keeps happening. His life is so pathetic it’s literally defying maths.
~
or: Michael’s arch nemesis just happens to be a guy who walks down the same road as him. It’s about as dumb as it sounds.

Summary
Ashton catches his eye for a moment, smiles nervously. Michael tries to look reassuring, but he thinks it’s probably coming across like he's undressing Ashton with his eyes. He kind of is.
Ashton doesn't look that horrified, so maybe he succeeded. He clears his throat, looks down at the floor, and undoes his robe, shrugging it off his shoulders and dropping it to the floor.

Or, Michael is an art student and Ashton is the nude model his class has to paint.

Summary
Merlin's dreams have always fuelled his art, but they've always been abstract and removed from reality. Soon after he meets Gwaine, he starts to see vivid images of a past full of death and magic and love for a King who was ripped from him. Things only escalate further when he spends a weekend in the country with Gwaine and meets his group of friends, which includes aristocrat and It Boy, Arthur Pendragon. Merlin soon realises that no matter how hard you try, one thing is certain, you can't fuck with destiny.

Summary
Uther dies instead of Ygraine when Arthur is born. Balinor helps Ygraine secure her position as regent, magic isn’t banned, and Merlin and Arthur grow up side by side. Camelot is different but not cloudless, destiny is still a troublesome thing, and Arthur is still charmingly oblivious when it comes to things that matter most in life.

Summary
Post S5 (AU); canon to the end of S4 & part of the way through S5. Gwen and Arthur have been married for several years, Merlin's magic has been revealed and Arthur has now reached a kind of cold peace with it. Then a delegation arrives from a kingdom based on magic, and suddenly Destiny is starkly and ruthlessly to the fore. The question is should - can - it be avoided?
WARNINGS: One scene may be interpreted as dub-con, infidelity, attempted suicide (magical/fantasy), season 5 spoilers. Angst. Please do not read if ambiguous consent or any kind of force used in sexual situations is a trigger or is distressing to you.

Summary
When Albion’s need is greatest, Arthur will rise again.
Fourteen hundred years after the dragon’s prophecy, Merlin’s magic is fading. He’s starting to age. Yet this is the moment he finally finds Arthur, returned, reborn… and imprisoned in his own home, after car accident a decade earlier left him with life-changing injuries.
What use will these two broken warriors be in the hour of Albion’s greatest need? More’s to the point, what is Albion’s greatest need? No one (including Merlin’s crack team of reincarnated friends) seems to know.
Meanwhile, out of sight, a corrupt government and a wicked uncle scheme and plot. At the same time, in the deepest depths of Albion’s soil, the omniscient threads of an ancient magic call. They call to Arthur’s altered mind. They call to an ailing Merlin.
Their message is simple. For Albion to survive, Merlin and Arthur must thwart the biggest heist in history – no matter the cost. -
