ART:

Snowy Solitude [Merlin/Arthur - G]
Another winter come, another year gone, and still Merlin waits patiently for his king's return. The snow is cold but his magic and fond memories of his friends are always a welcome warmth.

From the Leodegrace-Pendragons [Morgana/Gwen - G]
Years pass and times change, but silver foxes Morgana and Gwen manage to enjoy Christmas every year.


FIC:

Of Nutcrackers, Dragons, and Kings [Merlin/Arthur - 11000 - PG]
Seven-year old Aithusa is finally big enough to dance in the Nutcracker. Too bad her Daddy falls asleep as soon as the show begins. . . . It’s Merlin, Nutcracker-style. Or The Nutcracker, Merlin-style. Aithusa really doesn't care which, just as long as Daddy wakes up in time to see her moment in the spotlight..

A Yule Gift [Merlin/Arthur - 750 - G]
The first gift of the new year is important.

Welcome Changes Ahead [Merlin/Arthur - 8300 - PG-13]
Arthur gets home late after celebrating into the New Year. He finds a homeless stranger hiding in his porch, and – drunk as he is – decides to let him stay in his guest room for the night. Over the next day Arthur slowly gets to know the man, Merlin, and chooses to help him as much as he can.

Title: Welcome Changes Ahead
Author: ANON
Pairing(s): Arthur/Merlin
Prompt: “Arthur/Merlin – Merlin is a run away, that ends up choosing Arthur's porch as a spot for to shelter from the New Years's Eve weather. Arthur, getting home late hides him and decides he needs to help.” (Link)
Word Count: ~8,300

Notes: First of all: A huge thanks to Momo for being such an awesome beta! This fic wouldn't even be half as good as it is, without your help! <3 Secondly: I didn’t go with the prompt 100% (Merlin not being a run away per say and by that probably a lot older than intended), and I’m so sorry about that! I hope the prompt-writer still likes the result! What I wrote was my first inspiration from reading the prompt and I just couldn’t help sticking to it. >//<
Summary: Arthur gets home late after celebrating into the New Year. He finds a homeless stranger hiding in his porch, and – drunk as he is – decides to let him stay in his guest room for the night. Over the next day Arthur slowly gets to know the man, Merlin, and chooses to help him as much as he can.

A Christmas to Remember [Merlin/Arthur - PG]
Shut up Merlin.

Newlywed Christmas [Merlin/Arthur - G]
Merlin and Arthur celebrate their first Christmas together as a married couple and get caught up slow dancing instead of decorating the tree like they were supposed to be doing.

Merthur in a box [Merlin/Arthur - G]
What are your wishes for christmas? How about Merthur in a christmas present box?

Round-Up #3


(Apologies! I really would have sworn that I had posted the 3rd round-up, but I don't see it, so I'm (re)posting it now along with the 4th!)


ART:

A ‘little’ joke [Merlin/Arthur - G]
Cursed Mistletoe is all over Camelot Castle! Anyone stuck under it must kiss before they can pass.

A Merry Muse [Merlin/Arthur - G]
Arthur should've expected to end up here after telling his father that he wanted to be a photographer, not help him run Camelot Mall. Snot-nosed brats and garish decorations were far from his preferred subject matter... What Arthur never would've expected was for a cheeky elf to bring him inspiration... along with some holiday cheer!

Skating Date [Merlin/Gwaine - G]
Merlin and Gwaine go on an ice skating date.


FIC:

Late Night Sexting [Merlin/Arthur - 7000 - NC-17]
That one time Arthur went online looking for a release...

Cooking Up A Storm [Merlin/Arthur - 3000 - PG-13]
It's Arthur and Merlin's first Christmas together, and in a moment of madness they offer to cook Christmas dinner for family and friends…

The Longest Night [Merlin/Arthur - 2282 - G]
They’re lost, the sun is setting, the horses have bolted, and they’re both soaked to the bone from a mishap with some thin ice and a stream, but at least they don’t have to contend with bandits.

 “Just a quick trip, Merlin,” Merlin sing-songs in his prattiest voic“We’ll bring back more meat for the feast, Merlin.” “Shut up, Merlin,” Arthur stutters, his teeth clacking together.

Sweet Dreams of Mistletoe [Merlin/Arthur - 13452 - PG]
What could be worse for Arthur King of Camelot than to have to entertain the visiting King Olaf and his still-entirely-smitten daughter Lady Vivian over the holidays? Doing it during an outbreak of magical mistletoe all over the castle, of course!

Good Cheer [Merlin/Arthur - 2300 - PG-13]
Arthur Pendragon learns there's always room for good cheer.
