merthur fic recs: jealous!arthur

1. Kiss Me Once by Camelots_Daffodil (@camelots-daffodil)

Someone spreads a rumour claiming that a kiss from Emrys is worth immeasurable good luck to any sorcerer so lucky to share one. Unfortunately for Merlin, no one bothered to tell him about it.

Arthur, and the court of Camelot, will have to improvise in order to save Merlin from the kingdom's ill-fated romantic pursuits.

Written for Merlin Bing 2023 - Improvisation

~~~

hgkhfh you gotta love this take

2. the desire beneath by insane_falcon (@insane-ohwhyfandoms)

Merlin and Arthur have been best friends through high school and university, where they eventually add benefits to their friendship. Which is where everything goes wrong—a small taste of something more that leaves them both literally starting to die for more.

~~~

i am screaming!!! the mutual pining!! the mutual jealousy!!!

3. Rumor Has It by vintagelilacs (@vintagelilacs)

A visiting dignitary impugns Merlin’s character. Arthur does not handle it well.

“He implied you were bedding me.” Arthur raked a frustrated hand through his hair. “It’s an attack on my honour as well. As if I would bed someone who was unwilling!”

Merlin was only half-listening to the tirade, and was therefore only distantly aware of himself responding, “Who says I’d be unwilling?”

~~~

i SCREAMED!!! it’s so well written i cannot

If Arthur had a laptop, he'd read merthur fanfiction all day.

... Call me based but I'm right XD

Arthur: what is this magic? All magic is evil, I must ...

Laptop: Did you know there is 31,518 stories about you and Merlin getting together on ao3?

Arthur: ... Your wile tricks won't work on me!

Laptop: Really?

Arthur: ... hmmmmmmmm..... okay fine, show me.

"I cannot return your feelings."

"I don't expect you to."

"I'm sorry."

"...I know." – Prince Arthur and Merlin

[Arthur saw the sad acceptance in Merlin's gaze. He hated it. He hated it because he put it there. Right now he is prince, but maybe when he's king, if Merlin still loves him he'd have the courage to confess he feels the same]

merthur fic recs: arranged marriages

1. and you held me tightly ('til the morning) by Imagined (@burglarhobbit)

Merlin ducks forward, grabbing Arthur’s hands. His are cool and soft, and Arthur is surprised by the feel of Merlin’s palm over his own rough knuckles. “Arthur,” he says pointedly. “I know my duty, and I don’t need you to remind me. Are you always like this?”

“Like what?”

“Annoying,” Merlin says, and leans back, appraising him more thoughtfully than his tone suggests. “So concerned with your honour.”

Or: Arthur must marry Lord Emrys for a year to create an alliance between their people. Except it isn't Emrys who comes to marry him, but the young druid Merlin, who soon turns all of Camelot upside down—and Arthur with it.

~~~

ugh oblivious and pining!arthur never fails to slap

2. At Arm’s Length by sirencalls (@naydran)

“I’m sorry, there must be a mistake.” Uther furrows his brows. “That is my son’s manservant.”

“This is Emrys, the most powerful sorcerer who will ever walk the earth. It is our deepest honor to be able to offer his hand to your son.”

“Merlin?” Arthur asks, looking across the hall. Merlin looks the palest and the smallest Arthur has ever seen him. He looks like a scared animal that knows it’s about to be trapped, and that’s when it clicks for Arthur that no part of this is a joke. None of it. “Merlin, what are they talking about?”

~~~

my heart ached so hard reading this fic

3. So The Story Goes by TheCourtSorcerer (@thecourtsorcerer)

“Who am I to wed?”

Balinor and Hunith shared a nervous glance. Balinor knew this would be the hardest part—he wasn’t the most pleased about it either, but it was the best idea he had and, well, at least he knew his son would be marrying into a good family.

Even if he held his own biases against the patriarch.

Merlin stared on, expectant—arms now crossed over his chest in perhaps the least princely manner Balinor could picture. Hunith pulled her hand from his knee, and he braced himself, head high and shoulders back.

“Arthur Pendragon,”

or

Balinor & Uther have a deep mistrust of each other due to a petty feud in their past friendship, and therefore the only way to bring their kingdoms together is through marriage--the only way they'll trust one another to not destroy their kingdom is if they are united.

~~~

fadhfkdsj probably the fluffiest fic in this rec list and we love them for it
