Summary
Visiting nobles were nothing new. Merlin had met enough to no longer be impressed by their inflated grandiosity. Not that he was in the habit of doing it before. His first meeting with Arthur was a good example of that.
But how could Merlin have foreseen that the visit of this Lady, on her way to her grieving sister, would lead to the revelation of all these hidden secrets, including his own.Inspired by Swedish folklore.

Summary
“Wait, what are you saying where am l?“ Arthur asked suddenly and frantically, searching the area for any immediate danger.
“I don't really know how to tell you this.” there was a hint of genuine worry in the blue-eyed stranger's eyes.
Arthur's brow narrowed, hoping it would convey the message for the stranger to continue, the raven-haired boy visibly swallowed, Arthur's eyes lingered on the man's throat. The stranger cleared his throat, breaking Arthur's daydreaming and causing him to blush furiously.
“This, your highness, is Ealdor. Home of the Druids“
Well shit.
Or The one where Arthur is saved from the brink of death by Merlin, son of the leader of the druids. And those crazy kids go ahead and fall in love.

Summary
Arthur had seen horrors before. Witnessed them, bore them, even committed them. But what had been done to Merlin...
They didn't even know the full extent, because Merlin physically couldn't speak of it. Perhaps he couldn't even remember, if his mind had retreated far enough. But what they did know was awful enough.
Arthur would never forget the sight of his dearest friend hanging limp, dragged from the depths of a pit by the cold iron chain around his waist, too near death from starvation, pain, and magic depletion to even notice the flogging pole he'd been headed toward.

Summary
When Arthur and his knights are led into a trap and captured on Dyfed’s territory, Gwen is prompted to invoke the right of single combat. But when Dyfed’s chosen champion is revealed to be a powerful sorceress Merlin must once again take on the guise of Emrys to fight for Camelot and discover just how much he is willing to sacrifice for his friends.

Summary
Then, a realisation hits him, sudden and sharp, and Arthur freezes mid-motion. His breath catches in his throat as the pieces fall together. That’s what had rattled Merlin so deeply… It wasn’t the shock of becoming a servant to a prince or the brief jolt when their skin brushed near the birthmark. No, Merlin hadn’t flinched from a simple spark of static earlier…. It was the mark. This mark. Arthur’s birthmark. Merlin knows what it means.
On Merlin's first day as Arthur's servant, he discovers that Arthur has an unusual birthmark. Is his subsequent weird behaviour linked to superstition or something much deeper – something Arthur has yet to learn? And what is Arthur to do with this weird pull he feels towards Merlin?

Summary
Leon hadn't hesitated to throw himself in front of the sorceress's spell. He was a knight of the Round Table, a sworn protector of Camelot.
More importantly, he was a sworn protector of Arthur Pendragon, even if the young king was not aware of Leon's personal vow.
Perhaps that was why Arthur had looked so shocked.
~~~
Back in Camelot, Arthur was desperate. His First Knight was comatose, under a love spell that put its victims to sleep Gaius had claimed, and Arthur had no idea what to do.
Leon's wife, Lady Grance, had been summoned to Camelot and Arthur had begged her to kiss Leon, despite her protests that it would not work.
And it didn't. Now it seemed there was no way to save Leon from a sleeping spell that demanded "True Love's Kiss".
~~~
AKA Leon is put under a love spell, and his wife struggles to break it - much to Arthur's dismay and confusion.
AKA an ace girly is tired of the true love kiss trope and who better to fix it than everyone's favorite aroace knight?
