Title: Rescue Me By: Words: @fervidasaflame | Art: @candicewright Gift for: Nandoo Rating: Teen and Up Word Count/Medium: 12,266 & Art Warning(s): None Summary: When Arthur finds himself bored and desperate to escape his blind date, he stumbles across an app called Date Savers which offers the services of a "Date Saver" who will text, call, or even appear in person to save you from your bad date. Arthur decides to give it a try and is impressed at just how effective it is -- the only problem is that he's become infatuated with the man who keeps rescuing him from his dates. And that he can only see him by continuing to go on bad dates.   Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/30201492

Guess what, Merthur fans? It’s almost that time of year again! Merthur Glompfest will be returning in 2021 for another round of fantastic fanworks, just for you What is a Glompfest, you ask? A Glompfest is a gifting fest designed as a way for fandom creators to give back to those fans who wouldn’t usually be eligible to take part in a typical exchange fest. How does it work? Glompees (lurkers, readers, commenters, or fandom supporters of any stripe) will be asked to provide a prompt or prompts for glomping, which will then be claimed by Glompers (fandom creators, fic writers and fanartists) and filled according to the Glompee’s request. Completed works will then be posted to our AO3 Collection and shared on Tumblr for everyone’s enjoyment! For more information on how the fest works (and whether you qualify as a Glomper or a Glompee), check out the FAQ on our website HERE. SIGN-UPS OPEN: 1 Jan 2021 SIGN-UPS CLOSE: 15 Jan 2021

Title: A Marriage of (In)Convenience By: @camelittle Gift for: @oestentia Rating: Mature Word Count/Medium: 30,306 / Fic Warning(s): Some bad language and magical fighting, imprisonment, hurt/comfort Creator Notes (Optional): Dearest Juni - I hope you enjoy reading this fic as much as I enjoyed all your fabulous prompts. I tried to squeeze as many of your requested tags in there as I could, and a few more of my own for good measure :) Summary: When King Uther insists that Arthur joins a contest of suitors seeking Princess Mithian’s hand in marriage, Arthur remains determined to lose the contest as soon as possible… right up until he realises that his competition includes a certain scruffy-haired, impossible-cheekboned Ealdorish prince. Which changes things, because he can not let the pride of Camelot be dimmed by some impudent reptile-botherer, however high his cheekbones or plush his lips. And no, he’s not sore about that incident seven years, two months and five days ago when he and Prince Merlin first met, no matter what Leon says. Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/29924637

Title: A Universe Which Freely Gives By: psychotic_fangirl369 Gift for: fakeTrex Rating: Mature Word Count: 26,455 Warning(s): No archive warnings apply Summary: For this prompt: Arthur returns... but because of a series of unlikely events (and perhaps a bit of morose dragging of feet because he can't bring himself to believe the signals), Merlin misses the boat. By the time he makes it to the lake, signs of Arthur abound but Arthur is nowhere to be found. Magical tracking being less reliable than one might think, when Merlin finally does manage to find him Arthur is bizarrely well-adjusted, living in a flatshare in London with roommates who think he's batty but mostly harmless, and working an improbable job. Enter: Merlin, who Arthur absolutely is not expecting to still be alive.

Title: Secrets & Lies By:  LiGi / @little-ligi Gift for: lilacqueen / @oscarwildelife Rating: Teen and Up Word Count: 13,333 Warning(s): Canon-typical violence, swearing Summary: Arthur had finally put his finger on it. The thing that had made Merlin stand out, the thing that had intrigued him about the boy ever since the first time he’d met him. The thing that was going to get him killed… Merlin had magic. Not only had it, but used it freely all the bloody time. It was only a matter of time before someone saw him do it, and then they’d report him to the king and Merlin would be dragged out into the courtyard and executed. Well, not if Arthur had anything to do about it. Mid series one, Arthur, for once not being totally oblivious, discovers that Merlin has magic. The problem is, having magic gets people killed and Arthur very much prefers Merlin alive. It turns out making sure nobody sees Merlin do magic is rather a full-time job however...

Title: High Hopes & Slippery Slopes By: Saltedkiss / @shut-up-merlin Gift for: mediumdrip Rating: Teen and Up Word Count: 14.000 words Warning(s): None Creator Notes: Dear Mediumdrip, thank you so much for sending in your prompt. I hope you like what it turned into! Another huge thanks to the mods who did an amazing job hosting this event and keeping us writers in check! Finally... Effie, my wonderful wonderful friend and beta. Thank you for cheering me on. Summary: “You’re insane,” Merlin hissed under his breath. He grabbed Gwaine’s hand and intertwined their fingers. “Totally, completely, utterly insane. This won’t work.” He used his free hand to straighten his tie before they entered the reception at the fancy hotel bar, where he knew he’d find every single person he worked with.  “Of course it’ll work. Now laugh as if I’ve said something funny,” Gwaine said through his teeth, a fake smile plastered on his face. OR: Merlin's friends get sick of his never-ending pining over his coworker Arthur and come up with a brilliant plan: Merlin will pretend he's dating his best friend, Gwaine. That way Arthur will realise he's in love with Merlin, too and they'll live happily ever after. There's no way this could go wrong... right? Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/31073855

Title: A Lily in a Rose Garden By: Words: Saltedkiss / @shut-up-merlin | Art: @lordvoldemortsnipple Gift for: @snapshotmaestro / Myths_and_Magic Rating: M Word Count/Medium: 8694 & Art Warning(s): / Creator Notes (Optional): This was my first time participating in an event like this. I loved the idea of being able to create something for someone who wouldn't be able to participate in a traditional exchange, so I signed up the moment I found out this was happening. It wasn't until I started writing that I realised just how scary it is to create something for another person. Dearest Myths_and_Magic, thank you for an amazing prompt. I hope you enjoy what it became! Thank you to my wonderful betas Kristen and Effie, and to the lovely Lordvoldemortsnipple who brought one of my favourite scenes to life with her beautiful artwork!   And another huge thanks to the organisers for making this event happen! Summary: Merlin is completely smitten with his new sort-of-kind-of-maybe boyfriend, Arthur Pendragon. After spending the night at Arthur's for the first time, he wakes up and finds out his new lover has a daughter named Lily. Misunderstandings ensue. They don't hear from each other again until one day, during a walk in the park, Merlin runs into Lily again.

Title: To Idiots & Bets By: @shana-rosee Gift for: @chaoticandproud Rating: Teen and Up Word Count: 4,429 Warning(s): None Apply Summary: Percival smirked widely as he ran into the others in the hallway outside the throne room. “You lot should hand over your gold now because I just won.”
Morgana shared a look with Gwen and laughed. “I highly doubt that.”
Leon sighed gravely, “Do I even want to know?”
“I locked them in a broom closet together.”
-
Morgana, Gwen, and the knights are tired of watching their two friends pine over each other so they decide to settle it themselves. With a bet. Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/30981278

Pinch Hitters Required!
Hello Merthur fans!
We've had a few Glompers drop out of the fest, leaving us with three prompts unclaimed.
We are looking for 3 pinch hitters who think they might be able to create something for the prompt in the next 2-3 weeks. You don't have to be signed up for the fest, though if you already are and believe you can fulfil the prompt in the allotted time frame, please feel free to let us know!
We will be running the pinch hitting process like we did our claiming process.
You can find the details of three prompts here and if you are interested in claiming a prompt, please fill out this form to register your interest. We will be operating on a first-come, first-served basis and will get back to you to let you know if you are the first to claim the prompt.
Cheers! —Glompfest Mods
