tw: homophobia (internal and external) and violence
-
Homosexuality was illegal. Anyone caught practicing homosexuality was burned, beheaded, or drowned. Merlin didn't want that. He especially didn't want Arthur to be the one to turn him in.
Or kill him.
Shaking his head, Merlin pushed that thought away. Arthur was his friend. His 𝘧𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘥. Nothing more.
-
inspired by prompt that magic in Merlin is gay-coded
-
Rated Mature because of homophobia and violence that is a result of homophobia.

Always Be With You - Merthur
Merlin gets kidnapped by an unknown person and when he returns, he's different. Gaius finds out what causes it. The Fomorroh. Arthur and Merlin go on a quest to kill the mother beast while it's tranquilized, so they can protect Camelot from Morgause and Cenred. Gwen and Morgana are also a big part of the story and I write in their perspective too. (I have put it on AO3 as well, I am currently editing out spelling/grammatical errors there, because it's easier than on this platform, plus, I love going back and forth to compare, it shows me my growth as an author)Complete
