Merlin Writer Appreciation Month: Rare Gems

I’m late but I’m heeeereee this week has been ridic let’s do this

It's the End of the World (As We Know It) by schweet_heart

Arthur is travelling north when he meets Merlin, looking small and battered by the side of the road. 

Extremely extremely good Merlin/Arthur/Gwaine porn with feels. Seriously accomplished world building for such a wee fic too.

The Line Dividing by Woldy

Morgana dreams of a woman in the darkness. 

A canon au where Morgana dreams of Nimueh and a new kingdom and then makes it happen, powerfully and beautifully.

We were only playing by Roobs_teacup

Basically Arthur's afraid of water and it comes out in a dramatic way when he goes on holiday with his boyfriend for the first time and meets a whole lot of people.

Just a lovely characterisation of Arthur here, in all his insecurities, and Mordred is also wonderfully drawn.

My general author rec is @sophinisba who has written so many beautiful rare gems with as many pairings and aus as you can dream of - and always does so with lyrical, graceful skill, never shying away from difficult subject matter or being afraid to stray off the beaten fandom path.
