kinkme_merlin: reflections of wonderland (12/?)
Arthur/Merlin. Merlin is the one to fall into a parallel universe where he is Arthur's sex slave. ~701 words
kinkme_merlin: The Easiest Thing (12/?)
Arthur/Merlin. Merlin spells himself to be the perfect servant, and he loses his whole personality in the process. (I'm hoping also for some memory loss, like forgetting everything about his magic and any magic-related event than happened). Kudos for some Arthur emotional-angst when he realizes Merlin did it for him and it's his fault. ~1008 words
kinkme_merlin: The hunger that feeds you (4/?)
Arthur/Merlin. Arthur is very sexually repressed because Uther put the fear of illegitimate children and deviant-sexual-behaviour-is-WRONG in him. Arthur does not like porn. He does not like nudity. He does like sex but only if it's straight up vanilla. He does not curse. In short, Arthur is a big prude. Then Merlin happens. Merlin, who happens to be living in the flat across Arthur's and who likes to walk around naked, have kinky sex in his living room/kitchen/etc, and be everything Arthur's father ever warned him about. Arthur has a front-view seat of it all. At first, Arthur is disgusted. He can't close the curtains fast enough. Really, some people have no decency. Then Arthur begins to linger by the window. ~1141 words
kinkme_merlin: Thistle & Weeds (11/?)
Arthur/Merlin, modern au, incest, dub-con possibly. Hunith is a member of one of Igraine's charity groups and dies unexpectedly. Igraine is so taken with Merlin, young and orphaned and miserable, and decides to adopt him, no matter what Uther says. Arthur doesn't like this. He already has to deal with Morgana, who's favoured by their father, and now he has to share his mum as well, with this moody kid he doesn't like at all. He is nasty to Merlin, even mocking him for being an orphan, being an ass, etc, etc, and Merlin gives back as good as he gets. OP would very much like for them to be in their early teens for this and then getting older... ~1828 words
arirawrs: Wings - [PG13]
'We will leave Camelot, Merlin and I. You will never see our faces again!' ~ 1,214 words

lovepb: All Day And All Of The Night - [PG13]
Set during Morgana's year away from Camelot. Morgana discovers an interesting talent and decides to practice on Morgause. ~ 1,500 words
dlanadhz: The Rose Chateau 21/? - [PG13]
The story of Beauty and the Beast has never been told quite like this. When beauty is a poor, but happy farm boy and an only child, and the beast is a lonely, jagged prince left to live in banishment for the rest of his ugly life. Where the rose is a whole, magical tree, and there is not 1, not 2, but 3 conniving witches involved. Can beauty save the beast before the witches take down not only the prince but his father and their entire kingdom as well? ~ 4,323 words
lolafeist: Handfasting - [NC17]
Merlin hates weddings. Sort of. Not really. Then they shag. ~ 1,250 words
the_arc5: Sword, Stone, Servant, Sire - [NC17]
In which Merlin polishes swords, Arthur creatively defines words, and love is the thing that makes everybody miserable. ~ 5,500 words
i_know_its_0ver: Heartbreak, Secret Friends, and Stupid Doodles (1/?) - [PG]
Modern uni AU: Merlin has a secret crush on Arthur, who has no idea who he is. When Arthur has a bad break up, Merlin takes it upon himself to cheer him up. Secretly, of course. ~ 6,000 words
augustnight86 and serene_towa: The Prince and the Pauper 1/? - [NC17]
Did anyone wonder why Arthur was so worried that Merlin had been under there the whole time? ...Well, we did, and this is what we came up with! ~ 4,697 words
somerdaye: Tally 2/? - [PG13]
When Gwaine Stanford is your only friend, you know it's time to switch things up a little. Old and new and more-thans. ~ 2,300 words
jen2976: Icons
futuere: When thunder called - [NC17]
Post-3.02. Morgause is unimpressed with Morgana’s failure during the skeleton siege at Camelot. ~ 1,300 words
lady-ragnell: For the Weary
[kmm] When Arthur becomes King, Merlin overworks himself. ~5000 words
kinkme_merlin: Better to Have Loved and Lost (7/?)
Arthur/Merlin, modernAU. They break up, but they still hang around each other's friends, even if it is hard sometimes. When Arthur invites them all for a nice and cozy dinner, his girlfriend tries to be 'the perfect wifey kind' except for the fact that she has no clue where to look for the stuff in Arthur's house (cutlery, drinks...) while Merlin does, and unconsciously takes the matter in his hands. ~1042 words
rotrude: Drop Dead Gorgeous - [G]
Merlin meets an interesting new neighbour. He just doesn’t know what the man does for a living. Vaguely inspired by watching a certain shaver commercial over Christmas. Mainly silliness on my part. ~ 1,936 words
archaeologist_d: Snuggles and Squeaks - [G]
Arthur should know better than to be around when Merlin is practicing magic. Future fic. ~ 1,750 words
rufflefeather: Stumble through Mist and Magic. - [NC17]

There are some things that don’t actually need to be said between them. ~ 1,300 words

Homeless,drug-addicted,and in disguise, Merlin is desperate to forget who he really is, when Freya returns and he finds there might be just hope for them and Arthur after all. If he can keep them alive long enough to survive. A Merlin/Parked crossover. ~ 1,135 words

squilf: Icons
kinkme_merlin: to the world that never let you be (10/?)
Arthur/Merlin. Magical reveal- Arthur can ignore a lot of the strange things about Merlin, but when he sees Merlin with his shirt off one day he CAN'T ignore merlin's scars. Because, come on, surely Merlin must have some pretty serious ones- from Nimueh's fireball up to when he was poisoned by the Serqet...and why would a servant, Merlin, possibly have such scars. ~2172 words
superfletch: We're Still Here, What a Beautiful Mess This Is - [NC17]
Merlin thinks about the moment when he’s on the peak of a roller-coaster. ~ 5,427 words
kinkme_merlin: Unbridled (15/16)
Arthur/Merlin History Boys AU. One of them is a cocky but gorgeous straight schoolboy fascinated by his teacher. The other is the teacher, gay and sorely tempted. I don't understand it. I've never wanted to please anybody the way I do him. Girls not excepted. Bonus points if, unlike the film, they actually get to go through with it. (Also, I don't mind which is the student and which is the teacher - could see it working both ways.) ~896 words
kinkme_merlin: Six Billion Secrets (4/?)
RPF Bradley/Colin. I read this secret at SixBillionSecrets today: People that we barely know think that we're dating. We get along amazingly. We like all the same music. We have exactly the same sense of humor. I always catch you staring at me. We flirt so much. Why can't you see that we'd be perfect together? ( http://www.sixbillionsecrets.com/view/Love/593132 ) And the first thing I thought was: Colin wrote it about Bradley. Author!Anon can do with this whatever they want. ~374 words
thecheekydragon: The Escort - [R]
After his big break up with Will, Gwen convinces Merlin to hire an escort to accompany him to a banquet. ~ 16,500 words
kinkme_merlin: It's a Little Bit Funny (This Feeling Inside) [31/?] - [PG13]
RPF, Bradley/Colin. The producers/writers/people in charge finally notice that Arthur and Gwen don't have as much chemistry as they should. (bless them both, though ♥) Someone decides that since Bradley and Colin have fantastic chemistry, the solution is to put Colin across from Bradley in each scene and film Gwen's part separately and put them together later. Optional: something goes wrong in post-production and someone forgets to put Angel's part in instead of Colin's and it airs. ~2316 Words
lil_lollypop36: Call Me, And I'll Be Around 3/? - [PG]
In which Arthur is a stoic, socially inept undercover bodyguard with no feelings, and Merlin is a rich private school boy. ~ 2,057 words
kinkme_merlin: By a Thread - [R]
Morgana coerces Merlin into participating in a dark ritual to heal Morgause with his magic. ~3800 words
elirwen: Clumsy - [PG]
Merlin is as clumsy as he always is. ~ 203 words
luisadeza: Icons
fresica: Icons
kokorotr: Lovestoned - [G]
Really short sillyness about Bradley singing a song, driving Angel crazy and making Colin grin. ~ 273 words
kinkme_merlin: Life for a life (1-4/?)
Merlin/Nimeuh - magical duel leading to intense angry sex. Bonus points for kinky sex magic. ~1978 words
marguerite_26: These Castle Walls Bleed Lies - [R]
With his father unfit to rule and Camelot decimated, Arthur must assume the role of King. But the truths he discovers shake the foundation of all he holds dear. ~ 12,000 words
kinkme_merlin: Nice Guys (Don't Always) Finish Last [15/?]
Gwen, Merlin and Morgana are good friends - have been since they were young. They fall into the world of dating together, and while Morgana tends to pick really peachy significant others (Leon? Owain? Freya, even?), Gwen and Merlin have something in common: they like bad boys/girls. Whether they be the suave, manipulative and charming type or the rugged, leather-wearing dangerous type, Merlin and Gwen are all about the baddies. As an experiment, Morgana decides to set them both up with 'nice' dates. Enter Arthur, Morgana's step-brother. ~569 words
longing2fly: Emrys (1/?)
[kmm] A whole patrol is found dead near Camelot, with only one message: 'Bring us Emrys'. ~3699 words
