Summary
'“Is there a problem with what I do with my free time, Sire? I was under the impression I could socialise as I wished.”
“Is that what you call it?” Arthur muttered before he could stop himself.'
Arthur can't figure out why he's so perturbed to discover Merlin has a certain reputation in the castle. He takes it out on everyone, naturally. Gwen and Morgana give him pitying looks and dead legs, respectively, and Merlin ignores him until even he loses patience and demands to know why.

Summary
'Arthur did hear several other council members hide their laughter in unconvincing fake coughs, but he was entirely and understandably distracted by the horrible suspicion currently developing in his mind that his boyfriend might be a sorcerer.'
Once Arthur catches Merlin doing magic once, it's like he can't not see it.

Summary
'"They want me to work for them. Poor fuckers,” Merlin said cheerfully. Arthur mumbled an agreement and something about his work ethic, then stopped and looked at him suspiciously.
“And that’s a good thing why?”
“Because they can’t make me, obviously."'
The gang are captured by some people who fancy the power of Emrys on their side. Morgana and Gwen find out about the magic. Arthur despairs. Merlin makes things as inconvenient as he can while having his magic restrained and used against him. Eventually, something has to give. It won't be him.
