Summary
“So let me get this straight,” Arthur said, folding his fingers together as the man in front him awkwardly shifted. “You are under the impression if you win the favor of my servant that you will then win my favor?” he asked and the nobleman shifted again.
“Well, sire,” he said “That is the common consensus among… the chatter.”
“The chatter,” Arthur repeated and his mind flashed to all the kindness Merlin had received from other nobles. Dear God.
Or
Merlin has all of Camelot (and neighboring kingdoms) wrapped around his finger and Arthur is beginning to resign himself to the fact his servant somehow has more power than he does.

Summary
Merlin can't always use magic to protect Arthur and Camelot, so throughout Merlin's decade spent by Arthur's side, the knights of Camelot teach Merlin a thing or two about holding his own.
Or, 5 times a background knight teaches Merlin a different fighting skill, and the 1 time Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table find out (in the coolest way possible, of course).

Summary
Some upstart lord kidnaps Merlin with the intention of torturing him for information on how to get into Camelot. Then, he plans on killing him and presenting the body to the king. Merlin thought this would be an interesting kidnapping, maybe something fun and new — he was wrong. Right before he summons the will to escape, the Knights of the Round Table come for him and find him beaten and bloody. Too bad Merlin's natural sass is still going strong. But he knows he's safe now, and lets the Knights take care of him.
Based on the prompt:
"If I die tonight, donate all my organs to those in need, except for my middle finger. Give that to the king."Series

Summary
The first time the nobles saw Merlin rein Arthur in, they thought it was a coincidence.
The second time, they thought Merlin was either incredibly brave or incredibly stupid.
By the third, the knights had started making jokes about it.
By the fourth, the servants had learned to look for Merlin whenever Arthur's temper began to rise.
And by the fifth, even the nobles understood something that had taken them years to recognize.
Or; 5 times nobles saw Merlin reel Arthur in when he lost his temper and 1 time Arthur reins Merlin in after his magic takes him over.

Summary
The next time Arthur doesn’t say thank you, Gwaine puts his hand on Merlin’s back, stroking down the long length of it, from the short curls of hair at the nape of his neck to the neat cinch of his waist.
“Thanks,” he praises, throwing a wink to an agape Arthur as he does. It’s wonderful.
So wonderful, in fact, that for the next fortnight, for every brusque word that spills from Arthur’s lips, Gwaine spills three sweet ones.

Summary
“Forget I said anything,” Merlin tried, failing to smother his snickering. He lowered his eyes to the ground, and bit down on his grin even as his shoulders shook with laughter. Neither of them was fooled. “Of course you’re not jealous. Why would you be? Just because Ser Erden is so very charming—”
“He is not—”
“And chivalrous—"
“I bet he beats his servants,” Arthur insisted, with no proof or reason. “And his dogs.”
“And handsome—”
“Handsome?!” Arthur shouted, so loud that it boomed in Merlin’s ears. He jerked his head up in surprise. Dark spots of red had bloomed across Arthur’s cheeks, flush and furious. “He is not! He’s—shut up, Merlin!”

Summary
Several years after Camlann magic has returned to Camelot, but Merlin and Arthur are perhaps unhappier than ever before. Merlin has been sick, really sick, and Arthur doesn't know how to help him. Merlin on the other hand tries to push everyone away. Eaten up by guilt because Arthur still does not know about his magic. His illness is a welcome excuse to keep his distance.
They're having a miserable time of it until Arthur and Gwen decide that they cannot go on as they are and that Merlin and Lancelot deserve the truth.

Summary
Lionel is the first, approaching Merlin one late summer afternoon as the sun slants through the dust in the stables and turns the air into heavy fire.
I mourn, now that your house contains
such fractured shadows.
This wine you’ve handed me
tastes sour. I joke and you do not laugh.
When you speak, assuming my approval,
I stare into discoloured
depths of my glass, longing
to get away...

Summary
'Merlin, my friend. What –?'
'I need your help hiding a body.'
Every man in the antechamber froze, the silence thick and breathless. No one so much as moved as they all stared at the threshold, where the door stood ajar only a fraction, blocking them from view.
Yet it was Lancelot's reply, carried on the edge of a weary sigh, that made disbelief stutter in Arthur's chest.
'Again?'
******
A fragment of overheard conversation leads Arthur and his knights deep into the Darkling Woods, where the truth about Merlin's magic finally comes out.

Summary

Determined not to lose the position that lets him remain by Arthur’s side, Merlin sets out to correct every fault Arthur supposedly sees in him. It should work. It really, really should. Instead, Arthur only seems more dissatisfied than before.
