Summary
Closer to the door now, she could hear the loud sounds of her classmates talking and laughing. Momo wondered if they’d eaten dinner yet, and sighed quietly, resting her head against the cool wood. The cicadas were screaming behind her, nearly obscuring the sounds of activity inside.
It just seemed like so— so much. Normally, she could muster up the strength to laugh and talk with the rest of them, but right now she wasn’t sure she could make it past the kitchen. Backing up, she moved over to the edge of the little porch in front of the building and sat with her legs hanging over the edge.
Training had gone poorly.

The man in front of him looked similar to Arthur’s manservant, but he could not possibly have been Merlin.

Summary
“Merlin. You know I’m not afraid of you.”
...Arthur was reminded of the unfairness that had been lying under the surface all this time. All of Merlin’s struggles, and his dedication beyond what anyone else ever did. It had never been a manservant's duties to ride with Arthur and the knights—on patrols, quests, fighting magical beasts. Merlin had always come along anyway, and all those times Arthur assumed he was cowering in the trees, Merlin had always been fighting silently next to him.
“I've seen much of violent magic,” Arthur said. “And little of anything else.”
“Most people haven't.” Merlin laughed, the sound bitter. “You would be less afraid of it, if you saw what it could do. What I could do.”
...“What can you do, then?” He took a controlled breath. “You could show me.”
Post-Camlann Golden Age AU. Despite lifting the ban on magic, and naming Merlin Court Sorcerer, Arthur is still afraid of magic. No matter what he tells himself.
Merlin sets out to change that.

Summary
Arthur Pendragon is a weak king. Of this, Cyril is convinced. Overthrowing the King is the only logical conclusion. Cyril certainly possesses the brilliance for a coup, though finds himself lacking in brawn. Fortunately, he succeeds in recruiting a man who also has little respect for their liege: Sir Gwaine.

Summary
“Merlin doesn’t lie to me,” says Arthur, clear and even. “There is no doubt—”
“Of course I lie to you,” says Merlin, choosing this terrible, horrible moment to become lucid. “I’ve been lying to you since we met.”

Summary
“Holy shit!” shouts the EMT at his side. His partner on the other side of the gurney--the other side of the body bag--follows up with a well-deserved holy fuck and stumbles backward over her boots to sag against the back of the open ambulance.
“I’m fine, I’m fine, oh God, I’m sorry,” Guillermo babbles. His knees are trembling. He wriggles out of the body bag and hops to his feet, feeling like his legs are a cross between jello and underbaked macaroons, and he repeats his litany of apologies as he bounces from one foot to another to restore circulation.
Pain shoots through his joints from the roots of his toes. He ignores it, instead pivoting his head from side to side wildly seeking the detritus of his phone and groceries.
“Sir! Sir! You were--sir, please get back here! You were dead!”
“Not today, sorry!”
--
Or: 3 times Guillermo came back from the dead, and 1 time Nandor was there to see it.- Language:
