Merlin was looking for something uncomplicated. Arthur was just looking to get paid. Neither of them expected to find the other.

Arthur needs a date for Gwen's wedding. The rest is history.

This time, Arthur has a secret.

The reason SAS Captain Arthur Pendragon can't keep a communications specialist in Team Excalibur because none of them are good enough. And then Lieutenant Merlin Emrys gets assigned to his squad, and Arthur does everything he can to prove that Merlin isn't good enough, either. Except he is.

It's one week before the wedding and Arthur isn't nervous at all. But that's just the beginning.

The cardinal rule of being a wedding planner is not falling in love with the bride or groom. Arthur's never had trouble with that rule.

Merlin's addicted to Craigslist, Arthur's looking for love in all the wrong places, and with a little help from their friends, they manage to get it together.

When Police Sergeant Lance Dulac begins to investigate a crime in the small Welsh village of Camelot, it stirs up decades of secrets.

Arthur is a BNF and Merlin is his prized beta.

In which Prince Arthur meets Merlin and all hell breaks lose.

Merlin meets Morgana Le Fay at a support group for People With Freaky Unnatural Powers. Alright, it’s not technically called that, but it might as well be.

"To my great-nephew Arthur I bequeath Tintagel Distribution, wholly and without reserve, save for one condition. You must marry, and stay married, for a period of no less than six months."

Merlin looked her in the eye – rare enough, for the man who shares her husband’s bed – and told her he’d no idea what was coming, but that they had all better be more prepared than they were.

There was once boy Merlin came to the court to ensnare the prince in his grasp, for he was an evil wizard, determined to destroy all of Albion. He bated his time, and made the prince believe he was his friend, someone to be trusted until two Augusts after his arrival, the good King Uther Pendragon recognized that his son’s illness was related to the boy who never left his son’s side for a moment. When the evil wizard Merlin was burned, Prince Arthur emerged from confinement healthy and strong again.

Or, How in his tenth year of rule King Arthur chose a man to take the role of Court's Magician, and how Arthur made his decision.

She saw hell, and she saw that these two Camelots would one day be one and the same, happiness slowly sliding into tragedy. She saw, and knew in her heart of hearts that it could be changed. Now she knows the price she will have to pay to make that happen.

Merlin joined Facebook. 2:47am

Arthur is an Oxford Blue. Merlin is an Oxford cox. Lancelot is Merlin's romantic-dalliance-loving friend. Morgana is horribly clever; Gwen is cleverly waiting for Lancelot to grow up. Merlin and Arthur rub each other the wrong way, at first, but it soon becomes clear that Arthur is a university-class rower with a world-class heart (yes, I typed that). Clichés ensue.

As an up and coming rock star, Arthur Pendragon is used to having people fall at his feet - and Merlin, a thoroughly unimpressed technician, is the only one willing to put him back in his place.

Merlin thought nothing of it when Gaius dropped the first clay pot. It was, after all, an empty pot.

Morgana returns to Camelot to find it and her friends vastly changed.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a young son must be in want of a nanny.

Morgana is transfigured, glowing with an unearthly power within. "I claim this island," she tells Nimueh.

AU set in Los Angeles, California during the 1990s. Arthur is a movie star. Merlin is a waiter. The word "prat" is used.

Morgana sends Arthur on some blind dates that don’t go quite according to plan.

Lancelot was not a great man, sprung as he was from common blood and barely proven. It was not for him to cut away that magic, steal for himself a little piece of a power that could render Albion mighty. It was neither right, nor his right.

It hadn't been Nimueh's destiny to die at his hand, on this isle. And if her destiny could be broken… so could anyone's.

(containing a travel diary, the story of a heist, and two point five romances)

Detailing those certain things which every child of Camelot grows up hearing stories about and would swear on their life to have never heard.

She wants to scream, to cry out at them to look at what it is they would be destroying. Arthur, her Arthur, is the greatest king that Albion has ever known. Beneath his benevolent hand the lands have known wealth and prosperity, they have unified and built up links of trade. Barely has the taint of war been known and the scars of previous generations have faded, hardly remembered. And now it comes to an end.

Yes, Merlin understood Morgana. Because he knew all too well that before long he’d be following a similar path, and telling Arthur – no matter how tempting – was something he couldn’t afford to contemplate. It was for Arthur’s sake, and Merlin could not stand to be ordered to stay.

Finally decided to get up, did we. Still lazy as ever, I see, your Majesty."

There was no green shirt in with the blacks. There were no black shirts in with the greens. There were no shirts in any sort of wrong order. The string of curses that fell from his tongue was hostile and possibly suggestive of violence and might have continued to go on for quite a while longer had someone not elbowed him in the side and said: 'Oi, my mother’s here. Stop cursing like a bloody sailor.

Then that particular group of girls who always sit together—and out of all there's only one he thinks is hot but she never looks up at the right time—sitting next to Heineken, a broody kid who takes his skateboard to class, and whose real name is forever lost due to a supposed incident during first year introduction that involved a beer bottle, an unsavoury way of putting it to use and a partner too drunk to care.

In which there are aerialists, decorative metal flowers, prejudices, artsy books and magic. Obviously.

The first time Merlin had burst into flames (and Arthur made a note to remind Merlin, the next time Merlin complained about a 'life of forbearance and servitude to a man who makes no allowances for his advisors, and is in fact so unyielding, so sulkingly unyielding, that he will not even wear the thicker-soled boots with the yellow stain on the heel unless it is the second hunting Tuesday of the month, even when it is clearly raining outside', that Arthur’s thoughts regularly featured statements such as 'the first time Merlin had burst into flames')—the first time Merlin had burst into flames, absolutely without warning, Arthur had not managed even the moment of calm he was desperately grasping at now.

One time they get re-born as brothers.

1928, Cairo. Merlin Emrys is a special librarian and aspiring archaeologist. One day his brother, Will, brings him a new find of his: it could lead them to the fabled city of Amunhaptra, resting place of the pharaohs, and to some unforeseen adventures.

Arthur and Morgana are Metropolitan police officers drawn into a strange case involving robbery of ancient artifacts. Merlin is a graduate student at Imperial College studying the healing plants of Ancient Britain under Gaius – or at least that's what he tells everyone. Soon they, along with Gwen, Lancelot and Uther, will be facing a battle for the future of the country. Can they defend the realm from those who would seek to destroy it?

Gwen and Lancelot cannot be allowed to get away with their betrayal of Arthur.

Merlin was never an old man when Arthur was crowned, just an old soul.

Can the most famous film star in the world fall for just an ordinary (well, kind of) guy?

Arthur grits his teeth and feels Lancelot's hands on his back. "I didn't save one to lose another!"

Merlin abruptly wakes up in History of Magic.

"No! Arthur. You're straight, all right? You're completely and entirely straight. Because if you're anything else, if you're gay or bi or even curious or what the fuck ever, Arthur, you will ruin my entire fucking life."

Arthur, a travelling businessman, decides to rent a room with the Wyllt family while in town. Hunith is charmed. Her son, Merlin, is not.

Merlin Emrys had strong convictions on the subjects of love and marriage—namely, that they should be avoided at all costs.

Getting married wasn't supposed to change anything.

"Here," said Sir Godfrey, who was the worst of the lot, "I shall draw some diagrams for you. You there, fetch me a quill, boy."

And Merlin, Court Sorcerer, who was probably enjoying himself too much at Arthur's expense to be bothered about being addressed as "you there", fetched.

A series of random meetings in the rain turn into something more than Merlin would have expected. Warning! This fic contains: a string quartet, a damp flat, one black cat and lots of rain.

Merlin thought he knew what to expect from his life until he met a fortune-teller and then a dragon.

It was love at first sight, and Merlin knew it - when it came to the flat, that was. Merlin wasn't anything like as clear about the man he was going to have to live with.
