Summary
Strangely enough, Raquel felt peaceful, happy, at home in this rustic place, surrounded by people she's considered enemies just a little while ago. It was ironic to think that the most persistent feeling of belonging she’s ever felt was with a band of fugitive thieves and her criminal mastermind of a fiance. It was truly laughable.

Summary
That Arthur remembers him is reward enough; that the first thing he’d done after sleeping for a thousand years was kiss Merlin breathless is a different beast altogether.

Summary
Arthur feels quite foolish, now, upon realizing that the invisible guardian force he’s been sensing and the peculiar haze about Merlin were one and the same. And that they were both magic, the whole damn time.

Summary
Arthur cups the earthenware bowl in his hands and slurps the whole thing down with a speed that borders on desperation, all the while staring at the spoon disappearing inside Merlin’s mouth time and time again as he eats his own. It’s stupid, to be jealous of a spoon. Just like it’s stupid to freeze to death after only a few hours of riding in the wind-whipped rain. Just like it’s stupid to be in love with your servant boy you can’t marry even if you wanted to.

Summary
“Perhaps we are doing her a favor then,” he says, pausing to chew the inside of his cheek before adding in a measured, careful voice. “I wouldn’t want to live without my love, either.”
Arthur whips around in the saddle to stare at him, eyes hard and dark, like the storm clouds building on the distant horizon. “What love? You haven’t got a love,” he snaps, like he’s the sole keeper of all Merlin’s secrets.

Summary
While Merlin knew Camelot was one of the worst kingdoms to be a magic user, he couldn’t refuse his mother. But Merlin was a clumsy idiot.
So, after a horrible day where he fought the prince, met a dragon and finally was caught using magic to save the life of his uncle, Merlin found himself in the pyre. On his first day.
But another thing about Camelot was also true.
This other tradition was almost a joke. The foot-of-the-gallows marriage.
When presented, it was carried out until the end, treated as something serious. The man being executed would be saved by marrying the woman who asked for his hand even before he could descend from the gallows. His crimes would be pardoned as long as he continued to be married to her, and they would have the opportunity to begin a new life in a blank slate.
But it has never occurred when the crime was considered serious, so no one had to put the tradition in a balance against the law.
So, when the executioner lit the torch and the prince shouted, “Stop the execution! I’ll marry him.” no one knew what to do.
Or
Series rewrite where merthur is married since the beginning.
