Title: A New Life (1/1)
Author: dk323
Rating: PG-13
Warning(s): character death (temporary), swearing
Characters/Pairings: Arthur/Merlin, Gwaine, Lancelot, Gwen, Morgana
Word Count: 3,477
Disclaimer: The show Merlin is property of the BBC.
Spoilers: Takes place early in Arthur’s reign, somewhat takes into account aired episodes (Gwaine! :p), but the mentions are vague and Arthur/Gwen is notably absent (so AU-ish)
Summary: Arthur loses Merlin to a fatal curse. Fortunately, a twist of fate returns Merlin to him in an unexpected way.
Author’s Note: I think I got a bit carried away with the fluff. IDEK. Seems a bit ironic considering the character death warning...erm, but magic makes anything possible, so yeah...;)

In another world where daemons are the norm, Arthur is an exiled prince for not letting Merlin be executed to further the king’s blind crusade against magic. With Excalibur and magic on their side, Arthur and Merlin escape to a different world when the king’s men catch up to them.

It’s lucky that Excalibur can do more than strike men down in battle. But Arthur and Merlin discover that they can never truly escape their enemies.
 
Author's Notes ) 
Chapter 4: The taking of the betrayer 
 
Arthur and Merlin tell the daemon-less Merlin about what led the pair into exile. 
Unbeknownst to them, a prophecy may be what breaks Arthur and Merlin's bond forever. It is the beginning of the end…

Chapter 4: Not all is as it seems with Mordred. A secret is kept. Meanwhile, a troubled Arthur continues to face the consequences of his meeting with the Black Rider.

Arthur, Gwen and Lancelot go to retrieve Excalibur from the Dark’s stronghold.

Author’s Note: Mordred’s middle name is Gwydion, and he sometimes goes by that name. Gwydion is another name for Mordred in Arthurian legend either way…I believe it was another name for King Arthur too.

So much love. ♥ Can they be any more epic and destined to be together? The vid's mostly about how Merlin is always there for Arthur, helping/saving him. :)

Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 3,629
Characters/Pairings: Merlin/Arthur, Bran Davies, Will Stanton
Disclaimer: The show Merlin is property of the BBC. The Dark Is Rising book series is property of Susan Cooper.
Summary: Arthur thought everything would be fine as long as his father didn’t discover that Merlin was a sorcerer. He and Merlin could keep it a secret. But King Uther does find out and Arthur’s worst nightmare comes true. Because he can’t stand to see Merlin executed, Arthur engineers a rescue attempt to save his friend from a terrible fate.

The two of them make a run for it. The last thing Arthur expected was that they end up in someone’s dream. They get an offer that they can’t refuse.

Author’s Notes: So apparently this is me trying to do a happy one-shot. IDEK. ;)

Title: Love of a different kind
Recipient: [livejournal.com profile] deathsblood 
Author: [livejournal.com profile] dk323 
Rating: PG-13
Pairings: Arthur/Merlin, past Arthur/Gwen, Morgana
Word Count: 8,142
Warnings: None
Summary: In Arthur’s first reincarnated life, he hopes to finally have a proper relationship with Merlin. While they couldn’t be together the way they wanted in the days of Camelot, this new modern world opens up possibilities for them.

Everything is going well during their reunion until Arthur discovers that there’s one change in Merlin’s current incarnation that he can’t so easily accept.

Author's Notes: Written for [livejournal.com profile] deathsblood for [livejournal.com profile] glomp_fest. Prompts used were: canon AU (which ventures into reincarnation fic, but the setting is mostly in a palace atmosphere, so yeah...), pining, love potions, do-it-overs and some angst. A big thank you to [livejournal.com profile] a8c_sock  for the beta and for her helpful advice. I appreciate it. :-)

I hope you enjoy this story!

Disclaimer: The characters depicted herein belong to Shine and BBC.  The name Nathan Young and his physical appearance, Irish accent & immortality are thanks to the TV show, "Misfits." The idea of the wizarding world is, of course, from the Harry Potter book series. The existence of the wardrobe and it being an entrance to Avalonia is a nod to "The Chronicles of Narnia" book series. I make no profit from this endeavor.

Trembling on the Edge

Disclaimer: The show Merlin is property of the BBC. The Dark Is Rising book series is property of Susan Cooper. Some elements inspired by the 2010 film, “Never Let Me Go.”
Summary: Merlin is just a university student. He’s not some incarnation of a mythical sorcerer. But he soon discovers that some myths are real
 
As dark trouble stirs and Merlin’s world is in danger from an insidious threat, will the one thing that makes Merlin that magical legend return to him? Especially when he needs it the most?
 
Author’s Notes: This is a Modern!AU + Reincarnation fic. I partially blame seeing “Never Let Me Go” recently for this story idea. ; )
