    Summary

    Merlin has always known that Gwaine is gorgeous, everyone knows that. What he hadn't realized was that maybe Gwaine's glances to him were more than friendship. And he is very much interested in seeing what could happen. Only since they are both idiots they don't properly talk, and their first time isn't great. Eventually though, Merlin connects the dots of what Gwaine is hoping for from him and then things go much much better.

    Because Gwaine deserves to be taken care of and deliciously ruined by Merlin.

    Summary

    In retaking Camelot from Morgana at the end of Season 4, Merlin let loose with his magic, ending Morgana, freeing Camelot and whoopsy sort of exposing himself to the world. He and Arthur come to an agreement that Merlin will be a court advisor to magic, and basically have to deal with any other mages in Camelot or that come to Camelot. To aid him in this task, Gwaine is assigned as Merlin's personal knight, in part because he has zero fear of Merlin's power.

    Gwaine sees the stress this puts Merlin under, and decides it is his noble duty to make Merlin laugh at least twice a day.

    It has nothing to do with the fact that he is madly in love with Merlin. He's just being a good friend, and fulfilling his duties to Camelot.

    Summary

    In Ealdor, you court someone by braiding their hair. Gwaine does not know this. Merlin knows Gwaine does not know this. Which means that braiding Gwaine's hair can be just because Merlin wants to, not because he is really courting the man.

    He is really courting the man.

    Summary

    Merlin knows five things about the unconscious man in his bed:
    1. He is called Gwaine
    2. He saved Arthur’s life in that tavern brawl
    3. He needs urgent medical attention
    4. He is devastatingly handsome
    5. He is a druid, judging by the tattoo on his ankle

    It’s that last part that really sticks out in Merlin’s mind, though item four is a close contender…
