When Merlin returns after Arthur's death, it's obvious that he's devastated.
Gaius, Gwen, and the remaining knights see it, and the new of Gwaine's death doesn't help anyone.
Merlin becomes emotionally distant, and though he's still snarky and joking, there isn't quite that shine in his eyes.
Gwen tries to grieve with him, being his closest and oldest friend, but Merlin insists that he's fine.
Until he forces himself to clean Arthur's room, and the all too familiar memories he's been trying to forget come tumbling back, forcing Merlin to admit that he really isn't fine.

When Your Love Wakes You
"Only the person Merlin loves most can wake him." The girl took on the air of someone who held the upper hand over their adversaries. "Only a kiss from the person he desires most can break the curse." "Why?" Mordred questioned, "Why lay such a curse on him and offer the chance of a cure?" But Arthur knew the answer even as she said it. "Merlin desires no one. It isn't within his capability to."

1 | FOR YOU | merthur abo
** in editing "You've been nothing but a useless pebble at my feet-" Arthur hissed, the feeling of betrayal and rage seeping out of his soul. Merlin exhaled a silent cry. "Then I shall be nothing more to you, Sire." • In a world where everyone has a rank. This rank defines who you are; Alpha, Beta and Omega. Without these, the world wouldn't have order, and peace, but in a place called Camelot, a servant boy's secret has finally been discovered. .

The Aftermath (Merlin)
*Sequel Out now* Kilgharrah may have told Merlin that nothing he could do would save the Once and Future King, but that doesn't mean he was right. The warlock takes things into his own hands when he revives Arthur at Avalon, but there are consequences for breaking a destiny written before the time of men. Set just after season 5, Arthur slowly comes to grip with his friends' magic as they return back to Camelot, victorious from the battle of Camlan. Merlin tries his best to face his demons alone, but sometimes the constant pain, scars and tournament is not that easily overcome. The warlock faces his biggest trial yet... himself.

Merlyn's Last Dream
Sequel to 'Merlyn's Fate'. Based on Series 3 of Merlin. When true evil plagues a seemingly hopeless destiny, friendship tethers old ghosts to haunted morals. Silence is never the answer when thievery is afoot, stolen kisses breaking the rules of the heart. Goblins lurk around every corner, magic ruling tournaments, a lost prince found in the arms of one he can never love. Darkness falls as immortality rises, skeletons break free to devour the golden phoenix's last song. And in the midst of it all, a lone girl stands, a champion for good, inflicted by little more than pain. I don't own any of the characters other than Merlyn, enjoy!

Merlin's Son: A Tale old as Time • Merthur
Freya lives the attack, only just. But when she dies giving birth, Merlin's Son is born just before the Tears of Uther Pendragon, what will Merlin do to protect his child? What will Arthur do, when he finds out? Based of the series, but not completely. Featuring Merthur, Arthur 'not being a stupid prat', Good Morgana, Gwen and Lancelot and a whole lot of cuteness. Here's a snippet from one of the chapters: "I do not want your gold! I want to live without being hunted, without fear. I want magic to be alive again!" He said and Arthur grinned. He didn't even have to think about it. Anything for you, Merls. "Done." --- *Disclaimer* I can't take credit for the cover as I found it on Pinterest, I don't own Merlin either, if I did Merthur would be more than just fanfiction, all rights go to the creators. Thanks for all of the love 🥺 btw this is also on AO3, if it is easier for you to read on there.
