Day 25: “In Vain Have I Struggled. It Will Not Do. My Feelings Will Not Be Repressed. You Must Allow Me to Tell You How Ardently I Admire and Love You.” by cactuscandle
Fandoms: Merlin (TV)

Summary
Merlin hadn’t planned on eavesdropping but he had no choice.
“—must dance! You cannot tell me not a single lady here has not caught your eye?” said Lancelot with a disbelieving expression. Arthur rolled his eyes.
“They are all as equally vapid and vainglorious as the next,” he said coldly.
“Speak to them, Arthur,” urged Lancelot, not put off by Arthur's demeanour. “I hope you haven’t forgotten what Leon has suggested.” Arthur looked at him, affronted and shook his head firmly. “Why, I can recommend the lovely Lady Guinevere! She is the most beautiful lady I have ever had the pleasure of meeting.” Merlin preened and promised to relay this excellent praise to Gwen. Lancelot gestured to where she was sat and Arthur turned to look.
“Oh. She is tolerable,” conceded Arthur haughtily and Merlin doubted he was going to like the rest of his assessment. “But not handsome enough to tempt me." It took all of Merlin’s restraint not to deck that motherfucker right there and then. “You had better return to the ball and enjoy these creatures, for you are wasting your time with me."
Or it's the Pride and Prejudice/Merlin crossover we all needed (no knowledge of P&P required!)

Summary
When Merlin first gets to Camelot and sees the king chop off someone’s head, he thinks that perhaps someone should do something about that. When he gets called by the dragon locked in the king’s basement, he thinks someone should do something about that pretty quickly. When the revenge of the executed man’s mother doesn’t take out two dozen innocent people as collateral damage to the king only because he intervenes, he remembers that he is, in fact, someone and is, according to Gaius, pretty powerful. So.

Summary
"Well, how did you know I would..." Arthur seemed to search for the words. "React positively?"
It was now Merlin’s turn to scoff. “Oh please, Arthur, you’re not as sly as you think. When I took off my neckerchief, you turned puce.”
“That should be illegal." Arthur flushed red. "I shouldn’t have to see your neck.”
Or, Merlin and Arthur start hooking up around the end of s1, after they’ve both, in a completely platonic way, decided the other is worth dying for. This situation is just a FWB one, not at all romantic, right? Right?
(OR or; author explores Merlin's crazy fucking devotion to Arthur, and Arthur's crazy devotion to Merlin. They're so codependent.)

Summary
An early-days Batman & Robin one-shot
Before the legend of the Dynamic Duo was carved into Gotham’s skyline, there was a night of rain, laughter, and something strange perched on a cathedral spire.
When reports of a “laughing gargoyle” sweep across the city, Batman drags a too-eager young Robin into what looks like a simple urban myth and turns out to be anything but. Between malfunctioning stone monsters, a wild-eyed inventor, and an unexpected visit from Superman, the pair find themselves caught in a case that’s equal parts mystery, chaos, and heart.
It’s a story about the beginning of a partnership—the way Robin’s energy chips at the Dark Knight’s walls, the way Batman’s gruff care steadies the boy, and how even in Gotham’s gloom there’s room for humor, compassion, and a little sunlight.
Gotham may never stop brooding, but for one long night, it remembers how to laugh.

Summary
Someone in the Camelot (Merlin) has rooted out a spy on the council. This anonymous person (who is obviously Merlin) put this accusation into a long letter, full of evidence from a thorough investigation and infiltration of the spy's circle within the staff. Arthur is remarkably impressed with this mystery detective (again, Merlin) and becomes set on uncovering their identity.
Merlin didn't think things would get out of hand. He only wanted to get rid of the spy publicly and legally, so he forewent the magic and decided to conduct a counterintelligence mission for months to gather evidence the old-fashioned way—like anyone would! But suddenly Arthur is searching for him, and magic or not, he learned a long time ago to stay in the shadows.
George is so tired. It is so obvious. King Arthur is disappointingly unobservant, and George cannot take this much longer.

Danny isn’t exactly a fresh graduate with a lot of options after Highschool. College wasn’t happening and where the Hell was going to hire him? Mr. Lancer and CasperHigh apparently.
As what? As a teacher. A teacher on the subject of ghosts, because of course everything in Danny’s life will be ghost-related. But maybe ghosts, ghost society at large, and even the goddamn Observants will actually think this is, like, a good? thing. He also, apparently, doesn’t suck at it.
He’s still weird, eccentric, partly dead, and goddamn eighteen though- Language:
