Summary
"Look, would you just get in the car? That copper at the crossing is about to arrest us both for solicitation.”
“Shocking,” says Merlin, sliding into the passenger seat. “The one thing I have never done is show you a real good time.”
“You do all right,” says Leon, and Merlin spreads his legs on the leather, dirty ripped jeans just an invitation for Leon to put his hand on the sun-warmed skin of his knee. “Still want my jacket back, though. It's too big for you.”
“Thought you were done with me.”
“No you didn’t.”
Merlin’s knee flexes under the brush of his thumb. “No. I didn't.”
OR: Leon and Merlin, the end and beginning of a century, Francis Fukuyama and one very good jacket.

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.
Golden Age with scars — recovery arc post Merlin's capture & torture.

Summary
Once there was nothing left for them to do, they made their way to the Disir’s cave once more. As they arrived, Merlin started fidgeting nervously. Arthur noticed but he needed to stay focused on how to say the right thing. He planted his sword into the ground and made his way inside, Merlin following suit.
“-Arthur Pendragon. You have returned with your decision?
-I have.
-Will you embrace the ways of the Old Religion, or will you seal your fate and follow the path of your father?”
The King took a deep breath, and shifted his feet. He could feel Merlin’s eyes practically burning a hole in his neck.
“I need to do what my heart tells me is right. I have decided to heed your warning and to learn to accept magic into Camelot."
OR
After Merlin accidentally reveals his magic to Arthur, the King of Camelot decides to reinstate magic back into the land. His relationship with Merlin is forever changed, and they grow even closer than they used to be. Will their love for each other be enough to beat the fates awaiting them?
