Summary
When you've lived long enough, a lot of things that happen stop feeling like surprises.
Other things... Not even the Doctor and Jack Harkness have lived long enough to be prepared when these things happen.
Except they should be, shouldn’t they? It’s all happened before.

Summary
“If I do this, if I cast this spell, there’s no telling where it will take you.”
There’s only one thing Merlin needs to know. “Will Arthur be there?”
Freya nods hesitantly. “I believe so, yes.”
And that’s all that matters.
“Then do it.”

Teasing and banter have always been part of Merlin's friendship with the knights. But when a prank hits a sore spot for Merlin, the fallout is fiercer than anybody imagined.

Summary
Merlin loved Arthur with all his soul, but he was not in love with him.
Not that it was something he had decided, or a conclusion he had reached after mulling it over for a long time. He didn’t think about his feelings for Arthur. But if someone asked him what he felt for Arthur, surely that’s what he would say.
It was a fact. He wasn’t in love with Arthur.
...
Or so he thought. Because maybe, maybe, there are different ways to love and to be in love with someone, and Merlin didn’t know.

Summary
Merlin frowned, and tried to inhale, but choked on a cough. He opened his mouth, trying to speak but his mouth was sticky and full and he felt warm, warm, warm, warm spilling down down down down…
The world tilted on its axis a little bit, and Merlin leant into Arthur’s body. Why was the world tilting?
Arthur’s face shifted from annoyance to horror.

Summary
“There is no way in hell I’m dressing up as a woman,” Merlin huffed, crossing his arms stubbornly as his breath fogged up in the cold air.
“Come on, you have to!” Gwaine pleaded, pulling his best puppy eyes.
“Why? So that Arthur can call me a girl some more?”
The prince made a face. “First of all, calling you a girl has nothing to do with your feminine figure and everything to do with how you’re an absolute pansy!” Percival laughed, earning a threatening glare from Merlin. “Second of all, you’re not doing this for me, you’re doing this for the good of all of us.”
“Hear that, Merlin?” Gwaine piped up. “All of us. This is the future of Camelot we’re talking about! We’re going to catch our deaths out here if you don’t do it!”
“Gwaine,” Leon sighed, dragging a hand down his face. “Please stop.”
Merlin grinned “Thank you Leon—"
“You’re not going to convince him by pressuring him or taunting him.” The red headed knight turned to Merlin, a pleading expression on his face. “We request this of you humbly, Merlin. Please dress up as a woman.”

The (Good) Afterlife is Unavailable (do not pass go, do not collect your coin) by Pendragons Dragonlord (PseudoAuthor)

Summary
"You don’t belong here.” He holds out his hand, waiting for Arthur to take it and step out of the boat. Arthur ignores it. Uther drops his hand awkwardly and then attempts to reassure his son. “This place is a punishment. You are not deserving of it.”
At this Arthur’s features turn harsh. “I’m your son - of course, I’ll deserve it.”
Helpless in the face of Arthur’s anger, he turns away but makes one last gesture towards Arthur. A sign to follow him. He thinks about Arthur’s words; prays that Arthur’s fate isn’t predetermined - doomed due to bloodline and the sins of a father.
--
After Uther dies, he finds that he can move between the veil and Camelot. This ability stops when Arthur dies.

Summary
Arthur huffed, “If I’d known you’d turn into such a grouch I never would have died.”
Merlin scowled.
The warlock shot up from his bed and stalked out of his room, leaving the former king in his wake. He barely gave himself time to snatch his coat from the floor to warm up his freezing shoulders.
“Too soon? Merlin- look, I’m sorry, come back!”
Or: A week after Merlin buried his best friend and other half in Avalon, said best friend and other half that he buried in Avalon is suddenly trailing after him like a lost puppy. A dead lost puppy. That came back as a ghost. Merlin was going to scream.

Summary
“Y’know Arthur, you can’t keep going on like this,” Merlin said. It was as good a time as any to finally get into the messy stuff.
“I can and I will, Merlin,” Arthur said, lifting the wine again in defiance.
“Stop- stop with that bloody bottle,” Merlin tried to swipe the liquor. “You’re already drunk enough as it is.”
Arthur kept the glass infuriatingly out of Merlin’s reach in his opposite hand. Usually Merlin found a drunk Arthur hilarious, but this time he couldn’t focus on anything but the cold pit in his stomach.
“I will be drunk enough when I say I’m drunk enough….” Arthur took another swig and nodded silently for a moment. “Okay now I’m drunk enough.”
Merlin snatched the bottle and put it far out of Arthur’s reach.
Arthur Pendragon is not taking his father's death and subsequent Kinghood as well as he thought he could, but he can't very well let the whole kingdom know it. And the whole kingdom just so happens to literally mean every single person, including his friends. Luckily, Merlin is having none of it and with a tip from Gwen that maybe Arthur isn't doing very well that night, he goes to comfort the stubborn prat if it's the last thing he does.

Summary
“You have got to be kidding me.”
“Well,” Merlin said faintly, “they are very straight-forward instructions.”
Arthur glared at the cave wall in front of him as if it would make the words change. In fact, Merlin could have sworn they etched themselves deeper.
Leave in peace by uttering my spell
Agor y fynedfa gudd
Merlin may just have been having the worst day of his life.OR: Merlin and Arthur end up in a sorcerer’s cave. The only way out is by using magic. Neither of them like the idea very much. Arthur ends up surprising Merlin (and possibly himself as well). It escalates from there.

Summary
For a year, Donna Noble kept looking over her shoulder, as if someone was supposed to be there. For a year, she couldn’t keep a job. For a year, she snapped at the way her mother and grandfather walked around her on eggshells, as if they knew something she didn’t.
Then something impossible happened.
Children all over the world stopped and began speaking with voices that were not their own. And Donna Noble found herself drawn toward answers she should not have, names she should not know, and a part of herself that perhaps had never truly gone away.

Summary
"“Emrys,” said Gaius, raising the Eyebrow of Disappointment and flicking his gaze to where Merlin stood behind Arthur’s chair. “That is who you wish to have as your court sorcerer.”
Arthur nodded gravely, every eye in the council meeting upon him. “Camelot is dangerously close to division even now that sorcery is legal. We need someone who will unite us all, and I cannot settle for less. I’ll send riders out at first light chasing rumours and follow up any promising leads we have myself.”
He looked so beautiful when he said it, every inch the king, with the sunlight through the windows turning him gold. His voice had taken on that richness that sometimes infused Arthur’s words – that for the good of the kingdom voice, that let it be so voice, the voice that Merlin had come to understand meant another brick laid on the road to Albion.
Unfortunately, that voice had been co-opted for a fucking farce."
Or - In which magic is legal and Merlin is still lying for reasons that are absolutely, totally 100% valid and have nothing to do with his love for Arthur

Summary
Arthur grins at him, waves his chubby hand. "Father!" he says, because he knows he should be formal with his father. There is no Pa here, no Dad or Da.
There's something shiny on his father's head. He points to it. "What's that?"
"Prince Arthur!" hisses the woman holding him, but his father only chuckles. The woman relaxes, just slightly.
"It's a crown, my son. One day, you will wear one just like it."
Arthur tilts his head, curiously. "What colour is it?" He thinks it's grey, just a shade off of the silver of the swords. It's the same silver-grey as half of the household's shiny jewelry, a not quite true silver. He doesn't think he likes it.
"It's gold," says his father. "There's a lot of gold here in Camelot, my son."
Arthur nods his head, and labels that silver-ish colour gold in his mind.
(Or: in a world where you can't see the colour of your soulmate's eyes until you meet them, Arthur can't see gold, and it makes his life as a prince much more difficult.)

Summary
After discovering the Master alive on a fractured, dead world, the Doctor and Donna face ghosts of Gallifrey, broken timelines, and the weight of shared grief. But it’s not the machine, nor the paradox, that brings the Master to his knees. It’s the Doctor calling him by the name he once loved: Koschei.
