Summary
He shouldn’t have done it.
Sleeping with his king — in the state Arthur was in that night.
The worst part is, he doesn’t even remember all of it.— Just enough.The kiss. Arthur’s mouth, warm against his own. The breathless moans pulled from his throat. The way it felt like he was drunk — but even without the potion that caused all of this, Merlin knew one touch from Arthur would make him feel like he'd spent two whole weeks drinking in the tavern.
And flashes of what came next.
Enough to know that this time, he truly fucked up.
So when he wakes, naked in his king’s bed, Merlin does the only thing he can — he grabs his clothes and runs.
He barely makes it to Gaius’s chambers, disheveled and panicked, only to find the old man already holding the book Merlin now realizes — far too late — he mistranslated.
And in that moment, it hits him. There is no undoing this.“Merlin,” Gaius says, voice low “pack your things. Go as far away as you can."
“You’re carrying His Majesty’s child.”Or
Arthur was being too much, and Merlin—a clumsy fool—mistranslated an ancient text and brewed a potion meant to calm His Majesty, only to end up pregnant with the king’s child instead.

Summary
Merlin, secret sorcerer, and not so secret Alpha makes a serious splash on his arrival in Camelot. Secret Omega Arthur now has to survive it.
Lots of tropes, I have no shame, and random additional characters when I felt like it. Some bits of canon but again only when I felt thus inclined; and I changed half of it. Maximum self indulgence included as standard.

Summary
With King Uther’s health rapidly deteriorating, Arthur Pendragon must do what all kings before him have done: go on a quest to prove himself the next worthy leader of Camelot. But when his quest leads him to a mysterious tower with a rumored dark past, Arthur begins to question the things he’s been told.
There are stories about what lurks in the tower outside of Gorra. Some say it is the wellspring of evil itself; the beating heart of all magic. Others claim to have glimpsed a twisted creature through its single dirty window. They say whatever lives there is cursed—trapped forever in a labyrinth of rooms, and if you go in, you don’t come out. Nobody ever comes out.
Arthur is sure they’re all old wives’ tales. The building is clearly abandoned, after all. But as Arthur delves further into the tower’s past, nothing is quite as it seems. Is this place truly home to a monster, or is there something else afoot? And who is the mysterious man who wanders its halls?
Inspired by art by count-pudding . A merthur-shaped mystery for BBC Merlin Reverse Big Bang.

Summary
TW: Suicide
Arthur wakes to find a black serpent coiled on his bed, which is frightening enough. But then Merlin bursts into his chambers and magics the creature out of existence. Magic is outlawed in Camelot, and the reveal of Merlin's magic leaves Arthur with no choice but to sentence his loyal and once-trusted friend to death. Which goes somehow worse than what one might expect for it to go. And then Arthur wakes up; and there's a black serpent coiled on his bed. And then Merlin is bursting through the doors...
