1 – 13 of 13 Works in Arthur
Summary
"I'm not sure what I'd have done."
"And I didn't want to put you in that position.”For better or for worse, Arthur knows Merlin's secret. The problem? Merlin doesn't know Arthur knows. This leaves Arthur with a predicament... and an opportunity. A test. Three trials and three opportunities for Merlin to prove he doesn't deserve death. Arthur hopes he will pass them. Maybe then the image of Merlin's golden eyes will stop haunting him.
(AKA a really in-depth character study of Arthur's psyche but with a giant dose of angst and suspense because DRAMA. Also served with a side helping of Merlin character analysis and difficult moral calls. Lastly, this is really how I wanted Season 3 to go and was my prediction at the time. I stand by it!)

Summary
Captain Arthur Pendragon has put together the best team of specialists that the SAS has ever seen, but when his superiors assign Lieutenant Merlin Emrys as his communications officer, Arthur does everything to make him feel unwelcome. Arthur's job is to protect and guide his team through dangerous missions, and he worries that he can't do that when the newest member has a mysterious background and acts suspicious when he thinks no one is looking.
As their assignments become more dangerous, Merlin can't help but to use his magic to keep his team -- even his prat of a Captain -- safe from threats they couldn't possibly understand. But when they are sent on a undercover operation against a group of zealots intent on a magical apocalypse, Merlin needs to confront his fear of discovery and derision, and to finally trust his team with his secret.
Arthur and Merlin rely on each other for more than the sake of their mission. The entire world is at stake. When they learn -- from dragons, no less -- that they are prophesied to restore the balance of magic to the world, they fight on regardless of the outcome, because duty, honour and loyalty is a far stronger driving force than destiny.
Anthology containing:
Radioman
The reason SAS Captain Arthur Pendragon can't keep a communications specialist in Team Excalibur because none of them are good enough. And then Lieutenant Merlin Emrys gets assigned to his squad, and Arthur does everything he can to prove that Merlin isn't good enough, either. Except he is.
War Games
There's war games -- the sort that nearly get members of Team Excalibur killed, where Arthur proves his men are better than anyone else, and the ones that involve power and politics.
And then there's War Games.
R&R
Team Excalibur's prize was two weeks of R&R, but it's not all fun and games. Arthur is determined to keep his squad ready for whatever mission the Brass will toss at them next, and that means getting in touch with old friends, learning about the impossible, and trusting Merlin.
The Jester
The Jester has resurfaced, but the Directory wants to get their hands on him before the CIA does. Excalibur faces an entirely different level of danger that Arthur worries he hasn't prepared them for. Merlin is terrified -- not that he doesn't think he can't protect his team, but of what will happen if he does.
Avalon
First the CIA, now the Directory: Everyone seems keen on controlling Excalibur.
After the mission in Algiers, it seems as if the Directory thinks they can dictate when the team can eat, shit, and sleep, and none of them likes it one bit. Arthur is willing to play their game only so far, but after he learns that Mister Smith is sitting on a mission that puts people in danger, he decides that he's had enough, and now it's time to teach the Directory just who's in charge. But the matter of magic is still in question, and Merlin needs to make a choice.
Intermission
Help comes from a surprising source when the team waits to hear their fate at the mercy of the Directory's agenda, but Excalibur isn't entirely at loose ends. Arthur intends to deal with a particularly pesky problem, even if it means leaving Merlin in the dark.
But leaving Merlin in the dark has its own rewards.
First Contact
The Directory and The Dragon take charge of Excalibur to train them and shape them into a combat force that few others would dare go against.
Excalibur is ready for the NWO, but is the NWO ready for them?
Groundwork
Merlin's secret is no longer a secret and Excalibur struggles with the knowledge that they had a sorcerer among them all along. But the mission against the NWO won't wait, and Merlin and Arthur must soldier on.
The Play's the Thing
The Directory throws a wrench in Excalibur's plans against the NWO, and it looks like their assignment has come to an end. Luckily, the NWO is eager to get their claws into Arthur and Merlin any way they can, but that's not going to happen under anyone's terms but their own.
Means to an End
Conspiracies. Double-dealings. Intrigue.
Arthur has had it with being manipulated, with waiting for something to happen, with not being in control. The enemy's playing games and has every intention of using them and throwing them away like a two-bit hooker past their prime, and, honestly? The team's done with this rubbish. They've been pushed around, kept in the dark, strung along.
Now it's time to push back, to take risks, and to hope it's not going to go all to Hell.
Desperate Measures
Excalibur lost a battle, their advantage, their loved ones, their heart and their soul.
A broken Captain, a shattered team, and no one to trust. Their mission has been full of secrets, the present is the broken past, and the only thing that's left to do is to enact desperate measures.
Collaborations
It's driving Arthur mad, not knowing where Merlin is and if he's even alive. Without his usual resources, Arthur has no other choice but to reach out to people he doesn't even know -- never mind trust -- to help him unknot the snarl of conspiracies and to find Merlin.
Breakwater
Never has the world felt more right than now, with Merlin free and once again with Arthur and Excalibur.
Except it's not over. It's only begun.
There's more to the war than they'd ever suspected. More players than they'd counted on. And no idea how to fight against it all.
Storm on the Horizon
The world is in chaos. Civilization is menaced by a looming threat. Violence holds entire cities hostage, hapless citizens hiding in their homes. When the magic released by the NWO's bomb settles, it's only a matter of time before the war begins.
In Camelot, it's easy to forget what's coming, even if it's only for a little while. Among family and friends, broken bodies can heal, shattered hearts can mend, and betrayals stop hurting, becoming a dull ache that allows others to trust again.
The team has been kept in a heightened state of readiness while they wait for the Brass to reactivate them. They train until they're exhausted, they recruit new members, and they make sure that their new home and their loved ones are safe and protected.
It's idyllic until it isn't, not anymore.
Do or Die
It's time for war.
More than anything, it's time for the war to end.
The men of Excalibur are soldiers above all. They know every time they leave the base, every time they leave each other's line of sight, it might be the last time they see each other again.
Their lives is a sacrifice they're willing to make if it will mean peace. But it's love -- love for their families, their friends, their brothers and sisters in arms, and for each other that drives them to the end.
At the End We Begin Again
Absolutely nothing could make the members of Excalibur sign on for more. The war was over, the aftermath cleaned up as much as it could be, and they were happy to leave the last few loose threads to the army.
It was time to come home.
But the world isn't done with them, and all that Arthur and Merlin want do is to live their lives. So they do.

It’s that time old tale, rewoven to fit: Merlin loves Arthur. But this is Arthur’s story. And, well... Arthur is thick. Cue six years of heartbreak, anger, loss, and most of all: love. There are people coming together and falling apart. There is awkwardness and pining and running away. And sometimes, at the end of it all, sometimes there’s a happy ending.
