    Summary

    The Prince still stares at the Throne, occasionally throwing a glance to the crown next to it and Merlin does what he always does when Arthur is bothered by something, he does something so treasonous that he’s forced to shout at Merlin rather than stew in his own thoughts. Quickly striding up the short three steps and across the platform, Merlin throws himself down on the Throne, a violent act of treason. Arthur is merely staring at him as though he is the stupidest and most astounding person he’s seen. “What- Merlin what on earth are you doing? You cannot sit there, even the stupidest of people know that!” Merlin shrugs, stretching out like a cat.
    “It’s just a chair Arthur,”
    “It’s the bloody Throne!”
    “A fancy chair then,”

    Or; Arthurs scared of the Throne and becoming a king, Merlin decides to remind him it's merely furniture

    Or or; I have an unhealthy obsession with Throne and Crown scenes.

    Summary

    He stood up and started to walk towards the weaponry, but then another wave of nausea washed over him. He stood still, trying to ignore the pangs that shot through his head.
    'Merlin?' He heard a concerned voice shout in the distance. He looked up, but his vision was so blurry that he had trouble seeing Arthur walking towards him.
    'Merlin what's wrong?' He heard him say. Arthur sounded worried and scared, and for a moment Merlin wanted to run to him and comfort him, but then he vaguely realized that it was about him.
    'Merlin?'

    Or: Merlin and Arthur have been happily married for two years, the ban on magic has been lifted and after much talk and much more love, Arthur and Merlin live a wonderful life together in Camelot. But when a mysterious illness suddenly strikes Merlin, everything changes, and Arthur must fear for his husband's life.

    Summary

    Merlin was on his way to the woods outside of Camelot. Recently he had being going there a lot, his magic had been becoming increasingly restless, and he was finding it hard to control, so Merlin was letting it out at night, in these woods, every couple of days.

    Today on Merlin’s walk to these woods something felt different. He couldn’t place exactly what it was to begin with. To him it just seemed like the shadows of the night around him were larger tonight and almost, more sinister.

    Summary

    “Shut up.” Arthur orders immediately, hand coming to rest over Merlin’s mouth in an attempt to prevent him from talking. His hand feels slick as soon as he does, the blood coating Merlin’s lips spreading onto his palm. He uses his other hand to tighten the gauze around the knife still embedded in Merlin’s side. Every slight movement sends a pulse of bright red spurting out around the wound and the sight of blood has never made Arthur dizzy until this moment. He feels like screaming, like throwing up, like burning the world into nothing but ash at that moment. He feels like crying. “Stop talking, preserve your energy.”

    Summary

    Merlin felt it rush past him, and then Arthur was on the ground, clawing at his throat as he gasped for air.
    In the blink of an eye, Merlin’s magic tore through Sigan’s spell. Coughing, Arthur doubled over, only just catching himself on his hands, while Merlin wrestled his magic back under control.
    Withstanding the urge to rush to Arthur’s side, Merlin glared at Sigan. “You will not harm him.”

    Ever since he defeated Nimueh, Merlin's magic is getting harder and harder to keep in check; especially when it comes to protecting Arthur. After his magic is revealed during Sigan's attack on Camelot, things are beyond tense between the two of them — and as the tension grows, Merlin's control is slipping.
