hypothetical scenario for you all: the real king arthur returns. you meet him and you welcome him into your home. what is the first thing you do with him? keep in mind, this is a man from the 500s (he died in 542), and you are from the 21st century (2024).

I think it would be insanely funny if after Arthur’s death everyone returns back in time to the place they were the day Merlin arrived in Camelot. But like, everyone thinks they are the only ones who has returned. We see it all from Merlin’s pov, who’s traumatised and wondering why the fuck Arthur is so much sweeter to him this time around and keeps saying ‘thank you’. He wonders why Lancelot shows up earlier, why all of a sudden Gwaine is there three years too early, saying he got hurt in a tavern bawl and needs a physician. He wonders why Leon keeps pretending like he didn’t just accidentally see Merlin do magic. Why Gwen keeps giving him these knowing looks. And why Morgana doesn’t seem as afraid as she used to when she was figuring out that she had magic. Everyone is trying their best to change history for the better, thinking they are alone with this duty... and then one day when uther is dead and they are sitting around the round table, merlin steps forward and is like: ‘I need to confess that I have magic, but also that I have returned from the future.’ And everyone just whips around and is like ‘YOU TOO??!’ And then they realise that they’ve all returned and wasted their time thinking they were alone.

You do realize the show was up for one month and the first fic was already made, in 2008.

I should have gone for a PhD in literature with a focus on Arthurian legend (BBC Merlin smut)

Arthur knows.
Of course he knows. But Merlin doesn't want him to know. And Arthur would move heaven and earth for that idiot. So he keeps it to himself.
Until one day, that is, when Merlin comes to work and he's more tired than usual. Then, when helping Arthur with his tunic, he can't quite lift his left arm all the way up.
Arthur: Merlin. Lift your shirt.
Merlin: Sire?
Arthur: I said, lift your shirt Merlin. I'll not ask again.
Merlin slowly lifts the left side of his shirt, wincing, only to reveal a nasty bruise. He can see the anger laced in Arthurs features. But what scares him more, is the lack of confusion. The lack of question. There's is only understanding, and rage.
Arthur: I don't want you out of my sight for the rest of the day.
Merlin: You're not going to ask-.
Arthur cuts him off with a meaningful look. In that moment Merlin knows he knows.
Merlin: Oh. Uhm. Yes sire.... Thank you.
Arthur: No Merlin. Thank you.
There is more that needs to be said. They will talk many times about this. But for now, Arthur just needs his sorcerer safe. The rest can wait.

I for one think it would be funny if Arthur (as the prince or king, not super important to this concept) met with some leaders of outlying villages of Camelot, like a medieval diversity initiative, to learn about the traditions of peasants/laborers ect. only to find out when the topic is changed to courting/marriage traditions that he and Merlin have been at the very least seriously courting for at least two years

I know the fandom generally agrees merlin and arthur would sort out the magic ban before getting married. But i got to say it would be objectively hilarious to watch King/Prince Consort of fucking Camelot, the OG magic hater, just prance around, lax as fuck because who the hell is brave enough to accuse the literal 2nd most important person in Albion of breaking the law? 🤣
Like just imagine all the dialogues that could come out of it:
Magic-Hating Noble: I watched the chair levitate!
Merlin: I was the only other person in the room at the time... :/
Arthur: Are you accusing your King Consort of sorcery? *royal angry face*
Magic-Hating Noble: No! No... sire.
Arthur: Are you... accusing yourself of sorcery?
Magic-Hating Noble: ...
*merlin in the background making no effort to hide the fact that he's literally reading a spell book*
Merlin: *Teleporting into a busy council meeting because he's late*
Everyone: *Stares*
Merlin:
Arthur:
Everyone:
Arthur: *clapping his hands* Anyway, lets get this meeting started!
Merlin: *coming back from very publicly creating a massive storm to defeat some magical attack* Weird weather we're having right guys?
One of Uther's Loyalists: *literal steam coming out of his ears but too traditional to contradict a royal*
Merlin: *swans off, spell book in hand*
Let me know if you want more!

merlin gets sick. like. bad sick. maybe its a curse maybe its natural idk all i know is that merlin gets sick. he has a fever so high he is somewhat delirious. his whole body hurts. he feels like death. he ends up traversing the castle to enter arthur’s chambers and climbs into bed next to him. he was in pain and felt like shit and in his delirious state, he went to the one person who could always offer him comfort. arthur wakes to find merlin curled up next to him, his tunic fisted tightly in his hand as if to keep arthur where he was. gaius quietly walks in and extracts merlin from the bed, apologizing and explaining that merlin was ill and delirious with the fever. merlin is being tugged out of bed, away from arthur.
he’s fighting as best he can which, considering he’s sick, isn’t that good as gaius doesn’t even blink. then merlin is being dragged across the room, away from arthur and his body heat which was chasing away the chills and his touch was easing his pain. merlin starts complaining, whining more like, about how he wants arthur. gaius apologizes again and says he’ll send for a replacement to serve him before finally getting merlin out of arthur’s chambers and back to his own bed. gaius steps out for an hour to retrieve herbs from the town and returns to finds arthur curled around merlin in his little cot in his room, merlin fisting arthur’s tunic and arthur’s hand rubbing up and down merlin’s back.

Merlins magic doing what it can to make Arthur's life easier and provide comfort in any way it can.
Merlins magic making Arthur's bed softer and warmer in the winter.
Merlins magic making the candles burn brighter and last longer when his king needs to pass laws and work on documents.
Merlins magic making Arthurs clothes retain their color longer and tear less easily.
Merlins magic making his armor be stronger and more durable, unconsciously weaving protection spells into the metal.
Merlins magic making sure the sun doesn't get in his kings eyes and distract him when he's fighting enemies that wish to end his life.
Merlins magic making his Kings wine taste better and food last longer keeping it warm while he does other things.
Merlins magic making it harder for his king to be killed, turning the path to his kings chambers into a maze-like structure that makes it impossible for the assassin to get to his chamber or delay them long enough for someone to stop them.
Merlins magic.
