Summary
Arthur discovers Merlin's true nature in the worst way possible, but refuses to let him suffer, so he helps him through this very intense time and after that.... Well, what will happen after? can they go back to normal? or will things change forever? will they be able to forget, what happened?
We're trying to include a lot of typical Merthur tropes ... -

Summary
“...I think there’s something wrong with me,” he whispers. “I have an…affliction.”
Merlin’s eyebrows raise, mouth opening and closing all at once. “You—you have an affliction? Have you…been to see Gaius lately?”-
Arthur's turned up in Ealdor, prepared to help the village fight off Kanen and his men, much to Merlin's delight. But there's something about an excursion away from Camelot, away from his knights and guards and Uther, that loosens his tongue around Merlin that first night.

Summary
“You brought me back from the DEAD! Even the bloody dragon said that was impossible Merlin. He said it was unnatural, that magic can’t do that, no sorcerer should be even capable of such things! There was a PRICE!”
“Do you think I care about losing immortality? About the scars? Do you think there is a line in the world I wouldn’t cross for you Arthur? I am the last dragonlord, probably the last sorcerer, magic does what I bloody TELL IT TO DO.”
“The cost could have been so much worse. I wasn’t worth such a risk Merlin, I was dead and gone and—“
“AND I COULDN’T LOSE YOU!”

Summary
Merlin looked down at both goblets and poured carefully before sitting, not grabbing the goblet in front of him. Arthur didn’t touch his meal but took a long sip from his drink, and set it down heavily. Merlin was definitely feeling tension, “Whatever you heard, it wasn’t me and I didn’t do it.” He said preemptively.
Arthur pressed his lips together and tilted his head, “Even when I heard it from your own mouth?”

Or:
When the opportunity presents itself, Arthur sends off some of his trusted knights to deal with an issue while rooming once more with Guinevere to do some heavy investigating undercover, what he discovers... certaintly won't shock anyone reading it; inspired by Once and Future Queen s02e02 -

Summary
Gwaine knows Merlin’s secret, Arthur thinks he knows Merlin’s secret, and as a result, Merlin thinks that he’s under some kind of faulty enchantment – after all, why else would Arthur ever confess his love to him?

Summary
Maybe, Arthur thinks, after this sorcerer is dealt with, he should say something to Merlin about these feelings. Or after the harvest is in. Or maybe once the castle is prepared for winter. Yes, there won't be anything else to deal with for a good while after that. He'll say something then.
Of course, it all goes wrong.

Summary
“He looks up again, eyes almost burning with how bright his light is, glowing steadily above their heads. He pants, swallowing down another sob, and finally, for what feels like the first time in over a thousand years, he smiles.
“You’ve come back to me.””
or:
Arthur is brought back to Merlin in 1985. Multiple chapters, slow burn, they need to sort through lots of things. -

Summary
It’s about time Merlin and Arthur confessed. Not that it’s easy or anything, with hatred for magic and homosexuality. But to make it even harder Uther gives the order to kill every druid because he somehow heard that they could have saved his wife. And he never was very clear when it came to Ygritte. An order that not only involves but includes Merlin’s family… Will his decision still be to stand with his prince?

Summary
Arthur got this. He would resist any taunting from Uther, Merlin was sure of that. Everything was going to be alright. Arthur would make the hard but right choice and when it was over and all the guilt and loss came crashing down on him, Merlin would be there, by his side, as long as Arthur would have him.
And then, in the very next second, the ground disappeared from under his feet.
“Merlin has magic!”
***
Canon divergent: What would have happened if Arthur hadn't blown the horn in time and Uther managed to reveal Merlin's powers?
