Summary
‘I did not fuck you,’ he deadpanned, because no matter what all the signs said, people like Arthur didn’t have sex with people like Merlin; it was simply just how the world worked.
‘Of course not’, Arthur spluttered indignantly.
Merlin cursed himself for feeling disappointed. He already knew that his pining was one-sided, after there was no way Arthur would…
‘I’m the one who fucked you’, the blonde moron clarified.
In short, this is the dumbest thing I've ever written.

Summary
Chishiya had always thought of Arisu as a candle, something that wanted to keep you warm and melted itself in the process. Someone who was meant to be kept close but would burn you if held. If Arisu was a flickering warmth, then Chishiya was a biting wind.
In short, a brief exploration of how these two learn to love each other, from Chishiya's view.
Side note: TW for a brief discussion and implication of suicide.

Summary
Will had once heard someone say, "Your hands remember what your mind can’t."
He was too young to understand what it meant then, but over time, its meaning demonstrated itself to him.
The old woman who couldn’t remember her children's names but could still weave baskets flawlessly, as she had done for years.
The musicians he saw on the street who bragged about being able to play with both their ears and eyes covered.
As perhaps most damning of all were his own hands.
In short, Will's an artist and he can't stop drawing a certain man from his past, he doesn't know how his hands remember the shape of his face, or what his name is. All he knows is that he thinks the man's beautiful, so what happens when he finds someone alive who looks exactly like his muse. And why is he so famillar?

Summary
He wasn’t sure how he ended up here, or where here even was. All he knew was that he was walking, trying to meet up with one of his friends. Then, before he could find them, though, a fireworks display started.
Where on earth was he?
In short, what if Arisu had walked a little slower and got hit with the meteor before he reached his friends, and arrived to the borderlands a few days early?

Summary
On Will's palm was gash; it had healed well enough to only leave a scar, but a rather impressive one. James felt a familiar surge of anger bubble up before it got lodged in his throat. If the circumstances were different, he would have assumed that the scar had been caused by one of Sinclair’s men. Now, however, in the dead of night with Will’s walls lowered, it was easy enough to guess who had done it.
In short a self indulgent hurt/comfort fic where Will gets to be at least partially vulnerable and him and James get to know the boy he's been pining over just a little better.

Summary
But.
He died. He remembers the pain, the flash of regret, the biting loneliness. He remembers how the ground stank of blood and decay. The summer had been so fresh in his mind in those last few moments, when they were boys and Chiron led them through the woods in search of natural remedies. When they bathed in the river and wrestled in moss. Sixteen before war and Achilles became his. And he became Achilles’.
Patroclus sits up, fists the shirt above his chest and opens his mouth in a silent drag of a ragged breath. He died. Yet here he sits, panting in his bed, an eleven o’clock lecture looming over his head. He died three thousand years ago, and now he has a cellphone. Patroclus buries his head in his hands, staring at nothing between his palms for so long his eyes start to protest. He wants to understand why now. Why not when he was younger? Unless…

Summary
Merlin, Prince of Dracaneard, only meant to go visit Camelot in secret so he could see the land of prophecy and meet his uncle. He really didn’t intend to save Prince Arthur’s life or be given a job as his manservant for the trouble.
But it’s a good way to get to know the prince who is prophesied to unite Albion and bring back magic by Merlin’s side, isn’t it? And it’s not as if Arthur knows that his newest servant is the crown prince to Camelot’s enemy.
Surely, this won’t turn ten shades of complicated all too soon.

Summary
Not a soulmate AU. Definitely not.
Achilles’ new habit of catching the bus has nothing to do with the heart-stoppingly gorgeous stranger who keeps falling asleep on him. He’s being climate conscious.
It’s fine. Totally normal. Noble even. Some might say.
Fluff, feelings, and sustainability, let’s go!

Summary
James wakes up sick. Not sick as in coughing and sniffling. Not sick as in stomachaches and migraines. No, this sickness was something James had already been diagnosed with a long time ago: heartache.
James Farrow isn't so keen on vocalizing his feelings for Oliver Marks, but as time passes, and James sees the way that Oliver looks at him, it's only about time until the feelings flood over the dam. The journey the young man takes to finally say three damned words: I love you.
or, how James manages while Oliver is imprisoned.
