AU: A Servant of Two Masters » by
Gingeraffealene
This is a fix-it fic to repair this most frustrating and least consistent of all Merlin episodes. Arthur thinks. Merlin hurts. Gwen warms up. Sticks with canon until it can't anymore (due to consistency!) and sends Camelot on a better trajectory. PLENTY of growth, hurt and comfort to go around. Not a reveal.

whatswiththemustache
On a hunting trip gone wrong, Arthur discovers Merlin's magic and banishes him - but not before making a wish he'll come to regret. The next day, Arthur has no memory of the magic, and wakes up to a Camelot that is not his own.

How they met, how they fell apart, and where did Sirius get all those tattoos? Rated M for violence, abuse and themes of self harm, drug and alcohol abuse as well as sexual content later.
