    Summary

    “No one mentioned the possibility of my soulmate having me hanged,” Merlin says miserably. He doesn’t even know if that’s truly possible - a soulmate by the very definition is your other half, the one meant for you. Merlin had always presumed that his soulmate would also have magic because what other choice was there?

     

    AU where Uther approves of soulmates and does everything he can to support Merlin as Arthur's destiny.

    Summary

    Logan gets shot in the head with a supercharged alien bullet and wakes up with a bit of amnesia. It's okay though, he can definitely wing it.

    (In which Logan pretends to know what's going on and jumps to wildly incorrect conclusions about the state of things).

    ______
    What he’s got so far:

    1. He lives with a man named Wade and an old lady named Blind Al and the ugliest dog he’s ever seen in his life inexplicably named Mary.

    2. He’s still an X-Man, or at least working with the X-Men, but he doesn’t live there anymore. Maybe he moved out of the mansion to live with Wade? He can’t imagine why they’d choose this shithole instead of there, but maybe Blind Al had something to do with it? She wasn’t frail by any means, but living alone in the city, blind and elderly, can’t be easy, and in his experience the older people get the more stubborn they become. She probably refused to leave and Wade stayed to take care of her. And Logan had moved in at some point when they became serious.

    Because that’s the third thing he’s figured out. Wade is his boyfriend - or partner, as he’d put it earlier. (Boyfriend did sound a bit immature for men their ages).

    Summary

    “I just keep thinking about how it could go wrong. I like to think I can roll with the punches, nothing’s so bad I can’t come back from it, but I think if this- if we fell apart, I don’t know how well I could come back from that.”

    “I know that this may make me a hypocrite, but you could have told me.”

    “What, that you’re my best mate, and I love you, and I think about kissing you sometimes, but I don’t know if that’s because I want to or because I know you want to and I want to make you happy?”

    Summary

    Arthur could see his father glaring down - face red and eyes narrowed as he looked at Merlin with clear distaste.

    "Once this over, sorcerer...I’ll burn you."

    "You’ve already tried that," Merlin’s voice answered and Arthur had to bite his fist to keep from making any noise. “You need to accept you can’t kill me… Hand me that blanket, please.”

    “I’m sure there must be some method… Beheading?”

    “No, we tried that.”

    “Hanging?”

    “I just sort of... Swung there, remember?”

    There was another pause.

    “I should have made you keep that dragon below the castle so I could feed you to it.”

    “Kilgharrah? He won’t eat me, but if you want to torture me than making me listen to his nonsense for an hour might do it.” Merlin said and there was a soft sigh from the other end of the room. “I’m glad you agreed to help me though. Usually I have to do the grunt work of saving Arthur myself.”

    “I can’t wait to kill you.” 

    Or

    Uther finds out about Merlin’s magic, but can’t seem to kill him. Merlin is just trying to protect Arthur. They become a begrudgingly effective duo. Arthur doesn't understand why they think he isn't noticing this.
