Summary
When a deeply-closeted Arthur Pendragon finally earns a spot in Camelot's first XI, he's dead set on breaking records, not one of sport's last taboos. But life, like football, is a funny old game, and sometimes the only way up is out. Especially once he realises he's arse over tit for the new physio.
A queer Arthurian tale of courage, love, and football.

Summary
"“Emrys,” said Gaius, raising the Eyebrow of Disappointment and flicking his gaze to where Merlin stood behind Arthur’s chair. “That is who you wish to have as your court sorcerer.”
Arthur nodded gravely, every eye in the council meeting upon him. “Camelot is dangerously close to division even now that sorcery is legal. We need someone who will unite us all, and I cannot settle for less. I’ll send riders out at first light chasing rumours and follow up any promising leads we have myself.”
He looked so beautiful when he said it, every inch the king, with the sunlight through the windows turning him gold. His voice had taken on that richness that sometimes infused Arthur’s words – that for the good of the kingdom voice, that let it be so voice, the voice that Merlin had come to understand meant another brick laid on the road to Albion.
Unfortunately, that voice had been co-opted for a fucking farce."
Or - In which magic is legal and Merlin is still lying for reasons that are absolutely, totally 100% valid and have nothing to do with his love for Arthur

Summary
Morgana opened the door to reveal Leon’s smiling face, Gwen hanging on one of his arms. They noticed the wine with narrowed eyes as Morgana dramatically poured herself a glass three sizes too big without uttering a word to suggest why.
“What –?” Leon’s face scrunched up in confusion.
“Arthur,” Morgana declared, gulping down too much wine at once in order to prepare herself for the bone-chilling announcement, “is bringing his new boyfriend over tonight.”

Summary
5 times they don’t acknowledge his magic, and one time they do.
--
They both stared at each other for a long moment, silently daring the other to acknowledge what just happened. Merlin’s eyes glinting gold, the goblet stopping without him touching it—it was undeniable.
There was no way Merlin could lie his way out of this.
“...Wind is awfully strong today, sire.”
Unfortunately, Merlin is stupid.
“...Yes. Quite.”
Fortunately, Arthur is too. -

Bookmarker's Notes
“Where were you at Pride? I thought you came back here with El and I after the march.”
“I did!” Merlin protested. “For maybe twenty minutes. Then I met a very nice gentleman and was not here anymore.”
“Slag,” she said fondly. “If you had been here, engaging with your community like I was—”
“Excuse me, I was very engaged—”
