Summary
After a sudden encounter with Morgana, Merlin is severely injured, only managing to survive by calling the Great Dragon. However, he must return to Camelot still affected and somehow hide this from Arthur. But what's another secret on top of so many others?
Disclaimer: I do not own Merlin, and the whole idea of how Merlin's blindness works is from TA Barron's Merlin series (which is amazing and everyone should read)

Summary
Three years ago, Arthur Pendragon was a forensic scientist specializing in facial reconstruction for the FBI until a vicious serial killer kidnapped and nearly killed him. He never fully recovers and has to give up his job. Meanwhile, his wife, Gwen, files for divorce. Then, his sister Emilia dies in a car accident along with her husband, and he becomes the legal guardian of their young son Isaac. To escape the nightmare his life has become, he and Isaac move to a small town near Whistler, where Arthur earns a living doing odd jobs.
Just before Christmas, Morgause, a good friend of Arthur's, asks him to house-sit. She expects a visitor but forgets to mention that Merlin Emrys is handsome, charming, and extraordinary because he is blind. Arthur has no idea what he gets into as he and Merlin lock onto one another from their first meeting like heat-seeking missiles. However, Arthur senses Merlin is hiding something. And Merlin isn't sure how long he can keep up the charade, as falling in love was never part of the plan. COMPLETED

Summary
Arthur really never would’ve guessed it. Merlin had fought fairly well with a mace, and walked with ease and no fear of tripping. When he did trip, Arthur had assumed it was just Merlin being clumsy, or that he just didn’t see the small rock or stone. He had saved Arthur’s life with incredible speed and stealth, and perfect coordination. After becoming his manservant, Merlin had worked dutifully while jesting for weeks. It was only when Merlin asked, “Arthur, what do you look like?” that he realized.
Merlin was blind.

Summary
After taking part in the World War II, Merlin had been left hurt. After losing a part of himself because of the war, he had been placed in a institution with others invalide soldiers.
Lost, sad, angry, depressed, and lonely more than ever, Merlin was starting to fade away. For the first time, after Arthur died, Merlin was started to feel like he was slipping away, and he wasn't even fighting it. Because he simply didn't want to.
Would Arthur finally wake up now? Would he return now? Or would he leave his other half fade away in sadness and pain?
Inspired from a pic I saw online with a merthur AU : "When Arthur finally rose from Avalon he was afraid when he didn't find merlin waiting for him. Instead he saw the world he once knew, in a state of turmoil and war. And he was heartbroken when he discovered Merlin broken and powerless in a hospital cot."
(I changed a few things but the main subject is still the same).

Summary
Merlin isn’t overly surprised when he goes blind.
Something was always going to happen. At one point he might’ve thought destiny wouldn’t let it, but if destiny gave half a shit how hard it was to appease then Merlin wouldn’t wake up with more old pains and aches than Gaius every morning. He wouldn’t have to cover his scars up with a glamour full time, despite keeping most of his skin covered. No, Merlin stopped expecting slack about the time he first killed in the name of Albion and got whipped for his incompetence the next day.
Destiny will not accept blindness as an excuse for failure, so Merlin can’t afford to, either. His purpose remains. Arthur still needs protection. This changes nothing.

Summary
No. Nothing out of the ordinary. So why did something feel incredibly off?
"Arthur, I-" Merlin was cut off by a battle cry. Men with hoods covering their faces attacked the group. Arthur react instantly. Drawing his sword to counter the man charging towards him,the prince jumped from his horse.
He heard the others respond at the same time, each one of his noble knights protecting themselves from our attackers.
One fleeting moment of panic took over him, Merlin couldn't protect himself. He was just a servant he would be killed in minutes Arthur thought!
"Merlin, run" he said, hitting one of the enemies with his sword. Arthur struck him down, and another man replaced him. He prayed Merlin would listen for once in his life.
~~~
After a brutal attack leaves Merlin dying. Arthur is desperate to save his man servant. He seeks the help of magic and is willing to pay whatever price. However it's not what Arthur expects.This leads to the Prince and manservant to start their true destiny to unite Albion and bring magic back to their kingdom. That's if they can survive.

Summary
“I’m here,” Arthur would say.
“What took you so long?” Merlin imagined himself replying.
Of course, that’s not actually what he would say. Merlin wasn’t really sure what the hell he would say, but he knew it was better to think about it than the fact that his king wasn’t here with him now. Thinking about how he could be here. Can be. Will be. Not that, when it boils down to it, he just isn't.
Because that’s what makes it so unbearable, isn’t it?

Summary
When he was a child, Merlin was in an accident that stole his sight, leaving him scarred in more ways than one. He grows up hiding behind his grandmother's piano, his anger and sadness renting when he can't verbalisehow he feels. Twenty years, several successful albums and two sell-out world tours later, he meets his new, somewhat obnoxious, neighbour.
Little had Merlin known how Arthur would blow his little world wide open.

Summary
"I know that my need, my desire, will always be stronger than my pride. Stronger than the dignity that whispers at the back of my neck, gently shoving unwanted reminders into my consciousness, causing my flesh to prickle involuntarily. Whether I return or not..."
