Summary
Midoriya Izuku will die here, in some way. If not a true death, then one in spirit at least. He thought he knew what it was to shatter; drowning, flight, a rooftop, a question, an answer, a ledge that looked much too inviting.
He will not come back from this one, there is not enough glue and gold left to hold his pieces together.

Summary
Despite his obvious lack of socialization, Shouto had always been an observant person. He had to be, really, to survive in his father’s house. He had to learn to detect what mood the man was in each day to know how to behave; to be quieter or meeker, to fight back or to take up no space, which is why he did not understand how everyone else could be so blind to the truth of Midoriya Izuku.
If no one else is going to help, then Shouto Todoroki will do right by his first friend himself, goddammit.

Summary
Gwaine grins against the pale skin, stopping to nibble at a particularly sensitive spot.
“Stop that,” Merlin says weakly, pushing weakly at Gwaine’s shoulder. “You’ll leave a mark.”
“Maybe that’s my wicked plan?” Gwaine says with a leer, pushing himself upwards on Merlin’s chest. “That way everyone will know that you are mine.”
Merlin smiles up at him, content and soft in a way that Gwaine hasn’t seen him since before Arthur became King.
“You could do with a good mark. How a man trails around after King Trouble-Magnet for years without a mark on him is an impressive feat.”
Merlin stills under his touch. It’s only for a short moment but Gwaine feels it none the less before Merlin’s body melts back down into the sheets.
“Oh, you know me,” Merlin says with a small shrug. “Just lucky I guess.”
Or;
You've all read scar reveal fics. Well, this is an anti-scar reveal. With Merlin/Gwaine because there isn't enough imo.- Language:

Summary
Merlin accidentally sets up an orphanage.
-
“You’re doing an amazing thing here,” Lancelot said apropos of nothing as he handed Merlin a nail.
“It’s hardly amazing,” Merlin scoffed, concentrating on fixing the wooden beam in place. “I used to fix my mother’s roof all the time when I was little.”
“I mean here.” Lancelot gestured back to the house. “These children would have nowhere to go if you didn’t take them in.”
“Oh I don’t really do much,” Merlin said with a wave of his hand. “I just pop by every now and then to say hello. Mary does all the work.”
Merlin concentrated back on the roof. Anything not to look into Lancelot’s proud and warm eyes.He couldn’t explain to wonderful, pure Lancelot why he didn’t deserve any praise. Taking in these children, helping them to grow up safe and fed, it was the least he could do after all the destruction he had caused in Camelot.

Or: Merlin is the champion for Camelot in 4x05 instead of Arthur and fights the best way he knows how. Magic Reveal.
