Summary
'Merlin, my friend. What –?'
'I need your help hiding a body.'
Every man in the antechamber froze, the silence thick and breathless. No one so much as moved as they all stared at the threshold, where the door stood ajar only a fraction, blocking them from view.
Yet it was Lancelot's reply, carried on the edge of a weary sigh, that made disbelief stutter in Arthur's chest.
'Again?'
******
A fragment of overheard conversation leads Arthur and his knights deep into the Darkling Woods, where the truth about Merlin's magic finally comes out.

Summary
The holoprojector flickered to life. The image was of a low quality and half-obscured, hindered by whatever surface the spy droid had hidden itself behind, but clear enough to make out Kestis and the Nightsister in the midst of fighting a company of Imperial troops. They made short work of the remaining soldiers; it was undeniably an impressive display, but not a true testament of the Jedi’s power, judging by Vader’s interest.

Summary
“So, this is where you’ve been hiding all these years.” A modulated voice drifts through the smoke. It’s unlike the other inquisitors, smooth and unhurried. Unconcerned with the world around it, unworried for the fires that flicker at its feet.
Cere lays her hand gently on the hilt of her lightsaber. It thrums with all the Light Side power she thought she would never have again, like a song she will never sing beneath her fingertips. Now, it fills her to the brim.
“Second Brother.” She says as he steps through the haze of smoke. “I’ve heard many tales.”
***
The Second Brother is sent to kill Cere Junda and finish off the Hidden Path. Cal Kestis may not be as dead as the galaxy thought. Merrin won't leave him behind again.

Summary
Clerra Trevelyan just wants to go lend aid to the war-torn Hinterlands. Cullen Rutherford just wants to try help bring peace and atone for past failings. But sometimes when you head to a Divine Conclave to do your part to heal the wounds, you get a lot more than you bargained for: a calling that'll push you to the brink, but that you can't ignore.

The slow build and conflict of duty. This is a very nice slightly AU of DAI (with guest appearances by some unexpected and very familiar faces and surprising deaths that I did not expect).

Summary
A party was never quite a proper party in Tevinter until there was at least one assassination attempt, and the novelty in the attempt at Magister Caius’ party lay not quite in its actual occurrence but in the ambition of its assassin.
At the height of Caius’ decidedly juvenile lyrium-laced drinking game, during the start of dinner, Magister Fabiana made a sudden gesture close to the Divine, all the while leaning closer, as if to say something private. Divine Leonthius' hand snapped up, viper-quick, grabbing Fabiana’s hand high on the wrist. She rose from her seat, fright and outrage both in her eyes, fire stealing hot up from her trapped wrist before it was abruptly… gone.
Shock froze Fabiana’s snarl in her throat, even as, with a gentle, almost intimate economy, Leonthius pulled Fabiana towards him and shoved a dagger up through her ribcage.

Summary
“What are you doing here, sister?” Alexios scowled as he stalked through the sun-dappled olive grove. “Sparta is mine.”
“Don’t be so childish.” Kassandra was leaning in the shade of a tree, watching something in a glade beyond. She wore a golden cuirass hung with intricately patterned leather straps, gems, and purple strips. Her helmet was nowhere to be seen, her thick braid curled over one blue-cloaked shoulder. The Aegis was strapped to her back with her spear, though Medusa’s head was sealed out of the battlefield, visible only as a fine etching on shining brass.

Summary
It’s not that Lancelot thinks he’s entitled to anything. It’s not even that it burns to watch the two people he loves most revolve around a man he highly respects. Truly, it has nothing to do with either him or Arthur, he considers, watching Merlin quietly clean the knights’ swords by the light of the moon.
It’s just that he thinks Merlin deserves better, sometimes.

That's How The Light Gets In by Imagined

Summary
"Help me.”
Obi-Wan hesitated. Anakin’s lightsaber was still active, still bathing its owner in the crimson light that spoke of blood and anger, but his distress was palpable in the Force. Anakin swayed, and then he toppled over in much the same way a mountain crumbled. The lightsaber carefully, slowly—as if it doubted that it should—rolled out of his fingers, dark moondust engulfing the gleaming hilt.
Anakin didn’t move.
“Oh, blast it all,” Obi-Wan breathed out, and found himself on his knees in front of the suit he’d nearly destroyed only minutes ago. His lightsaber hissed as he deactivated it and hung it on his belt, and his hands hovered over Anakin uselessly. The debris of the same rocks he’d thrown at him now dug painfully in his knees, and he could feel the way that dirt and soot were clinging to his skin, mixing with sweat.
This was the worst possible thing he could do, and he wordlessly asked for absolution as he grabbed Anakin by his armpits and began to heave him towards his starship.

This is the best and right coda for what should have been the "Obi-Wan Kenobi" TV series. But then, it would have made the original trilogy AU. Ah well...one can only hope.

Summary
Loneliness is an insidious thing. When Merlin looks at Arthur, he sees not just a prince waiting for his time to rule, but a young man struggling to find his place in the world, with little help from anyone else.
The truth is, Arthur needs more than the friendship Merlin can offer. He needs people he can trust: men and women who will become his court and his confidants, and if he is going to survive to take the throne and lead Camelot into its golden age, he needs them sooner rather than later.
Finding loopholes in Uther’s laws is no easy feat. Court life is a dangerous game, but it’s one Merlin has every intention of winning so that Arthur can have knights of his choosing by his side.
And then there is the matter of his magic…

Summary
A hand grasped his arm, sending a brief thrill down Merlin's nerves as he was forced around to face the person behind him. Armour gleamed in the firelight: supple chainmail glinted, and the solid iron of a pauldron curved lovingly over one broad shoulder. The length of a sword blade separated them. The point hovered, steady and sure, over Merlin's heart, braced to run him through, but he did not care about any of that. He was too busy drinking in the sight of the man before him.
He could never forget him, no matter how many centuries had passed.
'Arthur?'
When Merlin ultimately fails in his destiny, the fading remnants of magic that linger in the modern world fling him not just back in time, but sideways as well. He ends up in a Camelot where all his friends are alive, well and aware of his magic.
He ends up in a Camelot where his alternate self died almost a year ago.
Can he, Arthur and their friends still forge the golden age he was once promised, or will grief and suspicion tear them apart?

Long!fic is very long, but sticks the beginning, middle and landing without dropping the plot and consistent characterization. Explicit Merthur elements are noted in chapters, but otherwise, can be enjoyed even skipping over those elements. Time travel with a sideways pull. :D

Summary
The son of the man who lost the Eagle of the Ninth would never be allowed a first command of his very own fort, would he?
Marcus is posted not to Isca Dumnoniorum, but to a wretched and run-down garrison north of the Wall. There he finds that he is the new centurion of a group of scouts and spies, all of them British. He has few supplies and no experience. His men distrust him. His superiors despise him. His second-in-command is an incompetent drunkard. And the local tribes are determined to kill all of them.
But the worst thing of all is one of Marcus' soldiers. He is an enigmatic, dangerous, and insubordinate man by the name of Esca, who makes Marcus yearn for terrifying things he has never before wanted and can never, ever let himself have...

Summary
His father would most probably be disappointed if he was alive and learned what Darim plans to do.
Yet, Darim must do this. He must find out if Genghis Khan’s grandson does have the same powerful sword that his grandfather once held.
Maybe this will be his final mission for the Brotherhood. Maybe this foreign island will be the land he would finally breathe his last.
Regardless, as Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad’s oldest son, it is his responsibility to finish what his family had started with the Khans.
He wasn’t expecting to survive, only that he be successful in removing the sword from the hands of the Khans.
He also wasn’t expecting to help a woman looking for someone to help her save her brother or the wounded warrior who was willing to do anything to save his people.
He also wasn’t expecting his grandnephew who always reminded him of his father and brother to follow him.
