    Heart of the TVA by

    Fandoms: Loki (TV 2021)

    Summary

    They don't say ‘I love you’ but they do say ‘you okay?’ and it means the same thing.

    When the Loom melts down and damages the TVA, Loki is sent slipping uncontrollably through time.
    Our TVA family finds themselves back on their timelines, reset to their original Nexus Events, but with a twist- no one gets the memories of their lives back.
    Loki must find his family and bring them together to rebuild the TVA and prevent Multiversal War.

    That is, if they don’t fall in love with life on the timeline first.

    This work is complete. The main story takes place between Chapters 1-41. Everything else is bonus content.

    The goal of this story is to provide content for a community who misses the TVA family. It's an extreme slow burn, deep dive into the dynamics between Loki, Mobius, Brad, Casey, Sylvie, OB, Hunter B-15, and Victor Timely.

    (Loki, Mobius, and Brad centric, mostly in their POV. More tags in notes)

    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?

    Bookmarker's Notes

    This is the first fic I've read that I downloaded to my e-reader and read over the course of a week. It is probably the most beautiful and complete world-building I've ever seen. It felt canon very easily, and in my heart, this is the sixth season.

    Or: Merlin realizes that, if he's going to keep Arthur safe and keep his magic a secret, he will have to get a little bit physical. Arthur has to rethink everything in existence when he's suddenly forced to confront the fact that Merlin can fight, and is in fact, bloody dangerous

    Or: The author randomly thought "Murder Twink Merlin" while re-watching the show, and decided it was his mission in life to make that a tag.

    Summary

    Arthur and Merlin have a special relationship. They always have, even when they were prince and servant. While many question it when first noticing, eventually it becomes an understanding in Camelot—and even among some other countries—that where there is Arthur, there is Merlin. And, where there is Merlin, there is Arthur.

    Or

    Arthur and Merlin's relationship as witnessed and explained by others.

     

    Also, or

    Five times someone realizes that Merlin is the Queen, one time Merlin realizes it himself, and one time he owns it.

    Summary

    There he stood. Frozen. In the presence of a man who Henry was willing to swear before Queen and country, under pain of death, was the single most beautiful person on the face of the planet, and possibly several galaxies beyond. A man who possessed the kind of magnetic pull that could persuade Henry to believe in a Catholic God. A man Henry needed to get at least 800 kilometres away from before he caused an international scandal in a tea room at Kensington Palace.
    -
    Henry has a new equerry. And he's too hot for Henry's fragile, gay heart to handle. (AKA the Alex as Henry's equerry AU that I'm sure someone asked for)
