Merlin Fan Fic Writer Appreciation Week
I love so many stories. So I think I will post some my favourite modern day Merlin fics. (Most are Rated E! You’ve been warned!)
Simply perfect (takes practice) by go_fishboys
Summary: After a brief but intense holiday fling, Merlin finds himself pregnant with no idea how to contact or even find the father of his child.
Sweet Retribution by SPowell
Summary: Originally begun on kinkme_merlin, I've cleaned this up and continued it here. Merlin hates the wealthy. A perfect opportunity to purge himself of his feelings of helplessness against them comes in the form of the young Arthur Pendragon.
A Little Bit Of Bondage In My Life by Deminos
Summary: New to the busy city of Albion, Merlin thinks that the best thing to do is explore the city. At a hanky themed nightclub he meets the prattish Arthur whose handkerchiefs match that of Merlin's. The weekend is fantastic, riddled with sex… then Monday— The first day at Merlin's new teaching job— approaches. Or.. Porn barely held together by an inkling of maybe plot.
So You Think You Can Kink by sksdwrld
Summary: Merlin is more than just a well-paid whore: he's a professional submissive who loves what he does. As his long-term contract with Uther Pendragon comes to an end, he must find a means to keep providing for himself. He wasn't expecting Arthur to step into the role of dominant, and he certainly wasn't expecting to fall in love.
Arthur is suddenly thrown into the world of BDSM when his father's ex-whore needs a place to stay. He's always had a bit of a crush on Merlin, but it blossoms into something decidedly more as Merlin teaches him all the best ways to get his kink on.
Picture Maker by tourdefierce
Summary: Hipster: a subculture of men and women typically in their 20's and 30's that value independent thinking, counter-culture, progressive politics, an appreciation of art and indie-rock, creativity, intelligence, and witty banter. Hipster: a group of people Arthur Pendragon despises.
Missed Connections (Glory, Glory, Holelelujah) by tourdefierce
Summary: Glory-Hole Romantic Comedy. 'NUFF SAID PEOPLE.
Art: The lovely and multi-talented sillyshy has done art for this monster of a fic. They can be found here at her posting. Please remember to leave feedback for her because she's beyond fabulous and these are so lovely.
Mix: Because I'm a huge dork, I've also made a mixtape. This mixtape can be found here. Please enjoy.
Podfic: This has been podficced by thisissisirus for podficbigbang. She is glorious. I love her. I don't deserve her. It can be foundright the fuck here
Wicked Game by winterstorrm
Summary: Arthur's the King of Camelot…nightclub. He can pick and choose who he wants, and he does – often – no promises and absolutely no repeats. The night he chooses Merlin might just be his undoing.
Summary: Modern AU with magic. Sex or die curse. They've had this arrangement for years now and it works. For Arthur, it's a duty, one he used to enjoy but doesn't anymore, and for Merlin, it's just something he has to do, like eating reasonably healthy food and getting enough sleep. The sex is part of their routines, a secret neither of them admits to anyone else, especially not to their partners. But maybe there is someone out there who can help them. And maybe, when faced with losing their connection, Merlin and Arthur start to rekindle a latent flame.
I really love so many stories in the Merlin fandom. There’s very little I haven’t read. This is just a smattering of faves. I thank all Merlin writers who I didn’t mention in this post but who I love for writing such beautiful stories.
