    Summary

    Between Grace's scant first aid and the nanny bot they managed to get the man mostly stable, tucked into Grace's bed and completely dead to the world for the past few days.

    It's the same man currently trying to kill him.
     

    or, the Eridians find a man covered in blood and Grace hasn't been able to care for something in far too long.

    Summary

    “Lord Geoffrey,” Arthur sighs, rubbing a hand along his brow in frustration. “We’ve talked about this. I am not, at this point, interested in marriage.”

    Geoffrey looks over at him then, lips pinched and eyebrows high on his forehead. “No sire. I shouldn’t think you would be the right person for this, anyways. Forgive me for saying so, but I hardly think there’s a magical being in all of Albion that would happily marry you, the son of Uther Pendragon.”

    Arthur flushes in anger and embarrassment, despite how he privately agrees with Geoffrey. It shouldn’t bother him so much, really— after all, he intends to marry for love. Still, the claim that no being of magic could ever love him stings for a reason he can’t quite pin.

    “No, I was thinking marrying off your Court Sorcerer might be a more effective strategy for gaining magical allies.” Arthur chokes on his own spit.

     

    Camelot has legalized magic, but needs a magical political marriage to seal the deal. Merlin gets courted. Arthur pines, stresses, and pines some more.

    Summary

    “I’m the king,” Arthur says grumpily, swallowing around the stone that has settled in his throat, “I can wear what I want.”

    “What about what I want?”

    “I’m the king,” Arthur repeats slowly, since Merlin is being particularly thick, “and so you can also wear what I want.”

    Or, Arthur dresses Merlin, which goes about as well as you would expect.

    Summary

    Arthur, Morgana, and Gwen had no idea what they were involving themselves in by volunteering to defend Ealdor—and Ealdor wasn’t ready for them either. Squashed between the Ridge of Ascetir and the White Mountains, Ealdor was offered unique protection from authority coming from either Camelot or Cenred’s kingdom. In other words, magic was used with an unusual degree of freedom, and it would surely be used while they were there.

     

    Canon divergence of ep. 1x10 The Moment of Truth, imagining that magic is actually very commonplace is Ealdor. This fact causes Merlin some stress on the trip from Camelot to Ealdor with Arthur, Morgana, Gwen and his mother, and he must find a way to warn his friends of the magic they will see, no matter the outcome.
