Summary
“I am your Arthur, am I not?” Arthur pleaded frantically, not above begging anymore. As prince, as king, there was not a day when people didn't remind him that he was Camelot's. But as a man? As Arthur?
He was always and forever Merlin's.
“Show me that my choices matter, Merlin. Show me that they are worth anything to you.”
Π∆
Diamond of the day fix-it, with a secret that only Arthur Pendragon knows.

Summary
Arthur Pendragon has spent his whole life untouched—by kindness, by desire, or anything resembling real intimacy. It never mattered. Not until a certain annoying manservant came to Camelot—Merlin—who disregarded all strict royal etiquette and showed no restraint when it came to sudden, reckless displays of affection. Now, there's something impossible in the space between them, something Arthur doesn't know how to name—only that he aches to close the distance.
*
A slow-burn touched-starved Arthur Pendragon story.

Guys, there was only one bed.
Guys, some obscure quest in the cold far-up mountains made them "huddle for warmth".
Guys, they might give in to this farm fantasy of theirs.
Can't I just put all the tropes in there?
This fic is rated MSI for Maximum Self Indulgence.

Summary
“So,” she began, since Mike couldn’t have nice things and not a single word had been spoken for the past five minutes, “Mike, Will has been coming over a lot recently.”
Mike gripped his fork, knuckles whitening and his eyes focused on the table. Sheknowssheknowssheknowsheknowssh-
“You should have him over for dinner,” Karen continues. “Properly.”
Ted, fucking Ted, scoffs. “He stays twice a week already, Karen. There’s no need to formalize anything.”
“But still,” Karen argues because the Wheeler kids got their stubbornness from somewhere (and it definitely wasn’t fucking Ted). “Mike’s b-”
“Karen,” Ted hisses, the warning evident in his tone.
Mike can hear it too well. We don’t acknowledge that. It would ruin the image, the facade.
“But it would help, right?” Karen insists. “To actually s-”
Sheknowssheknowssheknowsheknowssh-
“Karen, you are not helping!” And for the first time in his life, Mike thinks he’s heard his father raise his voice.-----
After Karen misinterprets something, Ted needs to have a chat with his son. Mike is not prepared for the whiplash the night has in store for him.
