    Summary

    In the morning, Merlin knows, Arthur will don his crown again. But for now their world is only Arthur’s drowsy kisses, and Merlin tracing circles on Arthur’s bare chest, and the night outside is deep and dark and still. There are no conspiracies, no dragons, no prophecies relentlessly unraveling.

    Merlin wishes, selfishly, that dawn might never come.

    (And the dawn obeys.)

    Summary

    A week before the winter solstice, Arthur goes on a quest to kill a beast: a shapeshifter with siren-like abilities.

    He makes it clear he does NOT want Merlin to come along, but Merlin's never been very good at doing what he's told...

    _____

    Prompted by the meme:
    "Dude, why did the siren take on my image and try to lure you, is there something you want to tell me?"

    Summary

    Arthur was at his wits' end when he caught Merlin walking out of the tavern, which led him to make a horrible mistake, one that proved to be the last straw for Merlin, who decided there was nothing else to do but publically quit his job and leave Camelot in a huff.

    Arthur never realized how much Merlin did for him-- or for Guinevere-- until he was gone; neither he nor his wife realized just how integral Merlin was to Camelot... and to their marriage.

    *Story is complete apart from final editing and will be posted in full over the next few days. Currently clocking in at about 20k. Explicit in the fifth chapter.*
