Summary
Merlin’s lost count of how many missions he’s been on. He doesn't care to know. All he knows is he’s the Magical Defence Force's top agent. That's why he's been assigned this target, he requires careful handling. They've thrown countless women at him; Freya, Elena, Mithian… none were successful. They need him incapacitated, preoccupied whilst MDF agents acquire the Crystal of Neathid before MI5 can discover it's whereabouts.
When HQ realised he'd be more likely to go for a man, Merlin had been assigned. Which is why he's standing on a hotel balcony in Monaco, much to his chagrin. He's much more than a whore, thank you very much. He's a deadly assassin.

Summary
No. Fucking. Way.
He would recognise those eyes anywhere.
In the photographs Declan occasionally thrust in front of him in pride when she was featured in the culinary section of the paper. In Christmas postcards.
In his dreams, late at night, when he allowed himself the privilege of dreaming about her.
“Taggie?”
or: Declan has a party, and our favorite couple are reunited after a year apart.

taggie o'hara and the hounds by hermioneobliviates for okaycoolitsfine

Summary
Rupert rolled his eyes. It was so fucking typical. Another scathing review, but somehow this one mattered more because a different name was plastered on the top of the newsletter. Who exactly determined that this specific source had any semblance of credibility? And credibility, how exactly?
Half-Baked with Taggie O’Hara. What an idiotic name. It was a crying shame that the contents weren’t half as laughable.
"The Hounds delivered a show with all the cohesion of a collapsing shed. The lead singer remains convinced that volume can substitute for emotional depth. It cannot. The new single limps onstage like a wounded animal begging to be put out of its misery. The only moment of genuine energy came from the drummer, who deserves therapy, new bandmates, or some combination of both. Perhaps if Rupert Campbell-Black possessed any semblance of stage presence, we would be able to overlook these other…deficiences."

Summary
Taggie had long since decided she was in this for the long run, and she was sure that meant they would each have to give the other a hand from time to time. It could not always be that Rupert was up while she was down. It was time to return the favour.
Or, a Season Two fic that started life as "Five times Rupert saved Taggie and One time she saved them both". Picks up a month and a bit after 1x08.
