    Summary

    Merlin’s head hits the stone wall with a crack and explosion of pain. “What did you say?”
    “No. Sir.”
    He gasps as the knight pushes him further against the wall, hands squeezing slightly around his neck. “You’re a servant, if I tell you to do something you do it, you jumped-up little–”
    “Get your hands off him,” a voice says from behind the knight. He drops Merlin suddenly, causing him to fall to his knees, and turns to face– Arthur. Merlin breathes a sigh of relief, coughs tearing from him as it catches in his throat.

    Arthur rescues Merlin from a knight with not-so-noble intentions.

    Summary

    "...what?" Arthur asked blearily as the boy set down his food. Merlin didn't even pause as he went to the dresser and tossed some more clothes out of the cabinet. "You... You have an apprentice?" He repeated and squinted. "Why?"

    "Oh, you know," Merlin shrugged, tossing a tunic on the bed "In case I die or something." He said. The boy blinked before glancing over at Merlin with pursed lips.

    "You're not dying, are you?" He asked and Arthur had to shake his head to try and keep up with the conversation.

    "I don't think so... But you can never be certain." Merlin told him with an air of stoicism. Arthur scowled. Honestly. This was ridiculous. Clearly, this was his servant's newest attempt to get out of work (or at least work less).

    "Merlin, you're not getting an apprentice." Arthur told him. Merlin stopped to look at the king.

    "I am. I have. He's right there. Say hi, Daegal."

    "Hi!"

    Or

    Daegal lives. Merlin takes him on as an apprentice. Arthur isn't sure what's going on. Mordred is also mad for some reason.

    Summary

    Stiles sighs, unlocking his phone. It’s 4:00 a.m. and this isn’t a call he wants to make, but between a lot of bad options, this one sucks the least. He presses call and waits for Peter’s grumpy growl.

    “What do you want?” Peter’s voice is a displeased rumble.

    "Where's your body dump?" Stiles asks.

    "What?" Peter already sounds more awake.

    "I know you have one, cough it up," Stiles says.

     

    "I have no idea what you're talking about. I don't - "

     

    "Oh my god, don't bullshit a bullshitter, come on. You fucked up my old one, you asshole," Stiles says.

    Summary

    "Uh huh, and you're an ass. Look, just- don't go killing anyone, okay?"

    That is an odd thing for a child to be- and, seriously, from what she can tell- asking an adult. Even odder asking it of Peter who, despite his interest in the macabre, is a fairly gentle soul by all accounts, at least, that she knows of, because he actually seems to be thinking about it.

    "I make no promises," he finally says, softly, honestly, and Stiles just gives him a long hard look before sighing and nodding in understanding.

    "Well, I guess it isn't fair to ask that of you, really, under the circumstances, so, how about... Don't kill anyone who doesn't deserve it- by my standards, not your own, you fucking psycho."

    "Hey, I'm not that bad," Peter sniffs, and Stiles narrows his eyes, "anymore."

    [Or: The one where Future Stiles and Future Peter astound everybody.]

    Summary

    “The place you give the Bite has meaning," Derek says. "Biting someone on the side is to make them your beta. It makes them your subordinate, but it also invites them into the pack with the full protection of the alpha. Biting someone on the legs indicates that you’re turning them to an omega. And biting someone on the arm, particularly the wrist, turns someone as your equal. It’s a mating ritual.”

    Stiles nearly chokes on a mouthful of granola. “A what?”
