    Summary

    No young man, no matter how great, or mystic can know his destiny. He cannot glimpse his part in the great story that is about to unfold. Like everyone, he must live and learn. And so, it will be for the young magic arriving at the gates of Camelot. A boy that will, in time, father the legend. His name: Merlin.

    Or

    A rewrite of Merlin if the writers weren’t cowards. A lot gayer, magic users aren’t the enemy in every single episode, and Uther is the actual villain of the story. Morgana is still a villain, but we have sympathy for her.

    Summary

    A hand grasped his arm, sending a brief thrill down Merlin's nerves as he was forced around to face the person behind him. Armour gleamed in the firelight: supple chainmail glinted, and the solid iron of a pauldron curved lovingly over one broad shoulder. The length of a sword blade separated them. The point hovered, steady and sure, over Merlin's heart, braced to run him through, but he did not care about any of that. He was too busy drinking in the sight of the man before him.

    He could never forget him, no matter how many centuries had passed.

    'Arthur?'


    When Merlin ultimately fails in his destiny, the fading remnants of magic that linger in the modern world fling him not just back in time, but sideways as well. He ends up in a Camelot where all his friends are alive, well and aware of his magic.

    He ends up in a Camelot where his alternate self died almost a year ago.

    Can he, Arthur and their friends still forge the golden age he was once promised, or will grief and suspicion tear them apart?

    Summary

    Duke Ben-something-or-other clears his throat and looks Merlin up and down. “Apologies, my lord, I have not introduced myself. I am Duke Benedict Earl James the Fourteenth." He stands and bows.

    “And I’m Merlin.” Merlin scratches his armpit.

    Arthur rolls his eyes. “He means your title, idiot.”

    “Oh. I’m the Court Jester.”

    Summary

    Despite all the supposed trips to the tavern none of the knights have seen Merlin drunk. They decide to rectify that. A poor decision, really.

    Summary

    Alastor, upon being forced to trek all the way up to Lucifer's tower, decides to have a little fun at the King's expense.
    They bicker, they trade threats, and Alastor even goes so far as to use his natural charm, just to fuck with that pretty stupid blonde head even more.
    One thing leads to another and they end up biting off way more than either of them can chew.

    OR

    My entry to eggsplosion2025, which sees Alastor and Lucifer magically handcuffed together, and I slap as many favourite tropes (and eventually, kinks) in as I can.

    Fic is fully written, updates every Monday :)
