Summary
After Merlin loses a patient, he finds that he can't stop himself from blaming Arthur for not doing enough to protect the druids. Unfortunately, the situation only worstens as Arthur's inaction and an innocent death starts off a chain of events that threatens not only Camelot, but all of Albion.
Canon up until "With All My Heart;" story begins approximately a week after they return to Camelot at the end of the episode.
* * *
“Guinevere, I’m sorry, but this is important. If someone’s killing people in Camelot, I have to know who’s to blame—”
“Then look in the bloody mirror!” For a moment, Merlin didn’t realize that he’d spoken aloud; he barely recognized his own voice, vicious in a way that Merlin had never allowed himself to sound in Arthur’s presence.

Summary
Still, Merlin wouldn't look at him. “Prophecy says you are to bring about Arthur's doom. You did not survive by Gaius' medical art. Your life–” Finally, he stopped and turned to face him. His eyes were wet. “Your life is my punishment. And I can't bring myself to regret it anymore.”
After the Disir, displeased with Merlin's decision, take his magic from him, he is struggling to keep Arthur safe. When they are ambushed on a hunting trip, Merlin finds himself taken prisoner and with Mordred of all people as his cell mate. He soon understands that he has no choice but to trust the man he wanted dead to free them and warn Camelot of imminent danger.

Summary
The concept of parallel universes is an idea that arises from the multiverse theory, suggesting that our universe is one of many existing universes that, in a manner of speaking, lie parallel to each other.
In this one, Merlin makes other choices.

Summary
All Mordred wants - all he's ever wanted - is to be close to Emrys. Although they see each other every day, he feels that his goal has never been further from his reach. Emrys is coolly polite, but it is clear he does not trust Mordred. His smiles and jokes, so readily given to the other knights, are not for Mordred.
He doesn't understand why; until he does.
-
Or: a conversation with Emrys sets Mordred down a path to earn his idol's trust, change his destiny, and return magical freedom to the lands of Albion. He's determined to do all three, or die trying.Bookmarked by dex

Summary
The Prince, despite his best efforts, could not stop his hand from shaking as he held his sword to Merlin’s- no, not Merlin’s- pulse. The boy tried to crawl backwards a bit, away from the sharp edge, but Arthur just moved forward with him. The sword trembled with adrenaline against the sorcerer’s pale skin.
Arthur couldn’t help but notice the boy’s ruddy cheeks, bright red from the cold and exertion. The snow made light dance in his tear tracks. The neckerchief that Merlin commonly wore was discarded on the snow; It must have fallen during the fight. It left his smooth neck exposed to the cold, riddled with goosebumps, and unmarred save for the blood-soaked steel, pressing in on his pulse point. Arthur could not deny that the… thing wearing Merlin’s face was beautiful.
Merlin is forced to reveal his powers during an attack. Chaos and angst ensue. I feel like most people give Arthur too much credit in magic reveals.

It was an act of appalling, ghastly cruelty that, had Arthur not been so horribly in love with him, he might never have noticed Merlin was a sorcerer.

This is a podfic of my story by the same title posted on my page. Thanks and credit goes to voice actor PsychoticFireBadger. He has a soothing British voice, which is perfect for this story. Soft and gentle, it's like being rocked to sleep.

Jon of the Kingsguard by TacitWhisky

Summary
Jon speaks the words of the Kingsguard kneeling in a sept of seven glass walls before seven southron gods that are not his own. Barristan Selmy touches his sword to either of Jon’s shoulders and Jon swears to serve a king he hates, to forsake lands and titles and to never sire sons or know a woman’s touch. “Stand vigil till morning,” Selmy tells him when it is done, and drapes a white cloak over his shoulders. “We will have need of you at the crowning of good King Joffrey and Queen Sansa.”
TLDR: AU where Jon goes to Kingslanding instead of the Wall, there’s no war, and he becomes a knight of the kingsguard even as Joffrey marries Sansa. As Joffrey’s true colors inevitably show Jon is forced to choose between southern chivalry and northern duty.

Summary
As the enchantment of the Yule Ball begins to fade and the castle corridors fall quiet, Draco Malfoy stumbles upon the aftermath of a very public Gryffindor quarrel. Hidden in the shadows, he overhears Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley clashing over Viktor Krum—jealousy sharp in every word. What begins as idle amusement quickly becomes something far more personal when Draco steps forward, intent on provoking her.
Their confrontation unfolds in a blaze of razor-edged wit and simmering tension. Draco coolly exposes Ron’s envy, only to betray his own interest in the process. Hermione, fierce and unyielding, matches every barb with cutting precision, refusing to be diminished. A reluctant compliment slips through, pride clashes with pride, and beneath their hostility lies something neither is ready to name.
They part as they always do—declaring mutual disdain—but the night leaves them both unsettled. Rivalry has never felt quite so electric.
