When the fanfiction has so much fluff, that you need to make a break in reading to not die from the sugar

A Royal Portrait - Merthur one shot
A famed painter is asked to paint Arthur’s portrait after his first year as King, and can’t imagine that the same legendary dragon slayer is the gentle and patient man currently sitting in the chair, posing awkwardly while his manservant tries to make him laugh.

Hey I’m trying to find a fix that’s a rewrite of season 4 after Uther kicks the bucket where instead of courting Gwen, Arthur courts Merlin. It follows the events of all the episodes the same but with Merthur and the Lancelot Du Lac episode is instead Merlin is like “fuck we’re engaged and I haven’t told Arthur about my magic yet!” And then Arthur sends him to Ealdor when he does but it’s nice happy ending!
Sorry if I’m not very clear with my explaining but if anyone knows the fic I will die for you 😊

Prompt!
Merlin and Arthur kiss but never realize it.
Someone points it out
They’re not actually together yet
They do not realize they kiss (or how often)
Everyone thinks they’re together
Hmm maybe one of the knights point it out, after asking when they got together. Or saying something when they kiss
I feel like this would be a good fic but I don’t know how to take it from there so can someone else pleeeeeeease make it??? And tag this when they find or make it??

“Come Merlin. I need a break from all the paperwork and council meetings to legalise magic. Let's go hunting.”
Merlin sighed, then smiled as a thought came across his mind. “Ok, but not hunting. I have a different idea.”
The warlock Merlin led King Arthur deep into the forest and after a while, it became clear Merlin was tracking something.
Arthur searched for signs of what Merlin was looking for. It was big. Heavy. Four legs with claws. Occasionally, the tracks would fade, and Merlin would look up to where some branches high above were broken. The creature had wings.
A griffin. In fact, several of them.
Arthur had always been disappointed it had been Lancelot, and not him, who slew the griffin. He’d always wanted to kill one himself. Arthur relaxed into the trip and enjoyed Merlin's prattle about unimportant things. More than a few times, Merlin lost the creature’s trail, so Arthur set him right.
Eventually, Merlin dismounted and beckoned Arthur to do the same, which he did. Merlin snuck to a ridge in the forest. Merlin pointed to below the ridge where there was a stream fed by a waterfall which created a small island of grass. 
Arthur counted multiple griffins. He raised his crossbow, but before he could line up a shot, Merlin pushed the crossbow down. “No. Just look.”
The adult griffins preened each other’s feathers whilst the foals? Owlets? played in the stream. One of the small ones jumped off a rock, flapped its wings and fell to the ground, making a sharp cry. A larger griffin nudged the smaller one with its snout and it got back up and climbed onto the rock again.
Very slowly, Merlin scooted towards them. Arthur followed. Initially, the griffins were wary of the two humans, but soon settled, perhaps with a little help from Merlin’s magic.
Merlin sat down on the grass and drew a picnic out of his pack. He beamed a smile. “I think this is much better than hunting.”
“Of course you do. You’re sitting down doing nothing,” Arthur teased, but he sat next to Merlin and watched the griffins.
“I misunderstood them. They’re social creatures who live in groups. When they’re alone, they get scared and violent. I didn’t know that when I killed the one that came to Camelot.”
“That was Lancelot.”
“Course. Yep,” Merlin said too quickly.
Arthur groaned as he heard the lying tone in Merlin's voice. “Come on then, tell me what really happened.”
And so, Merlin told Arthur the tale of Sir Lancelot and the Griffin. The pair enjoyed their picnic; watched the griffins play and chatted aimlessly about magic until stars dotted the night sky.

Wrote another merthur one shot but this time its staying a one shot lmao
Summary:
Merlin finds himself needing one of Arthur's keys for whatever magical endeavor he's on but as he tries to steal from Arthur's room, the prince himself and Gwen walk into the room, Merlin hiding himself in Arthur's wardrobe when Arthur admits the very thing Merlin had been waiting to hear for months; that Arthur was in love with him.
Basically a fluff fic

Merlin's words don't come easy.
Arthur's come via text.
And music soothes the doubt-savaged beast

merthur fic recs: oblivious!merlin pt 6
1. Matters of the Heart by a_written_dream (@a-written-dream)        
 “You must find the person Arthur truly loves,” the Dragon says, and this time it’s Merlin who wants to laugh.
 “Arthur doesn’t love anyone, not since Gwen,” he says, certain of it.
 The air rumbles with the Dragon’s laughter. “It seems you do not know your prince quite as well as you thought, young warlock.”
-
A 2x10 Sweet Dreams rewrite. After the ordeal with Hengist, Gwen and Arthur decide they are better suited as friends. Arthur still gets enchanted to fall in love with Lady Vivian, Merlin still tries to save his royal ass, and True Loves' Kiss is still the cure. But if Gwen isn't Arthur's true love, then who could it possibly be?
~~~
hmmm it’s really a mystery who arthur’s OTHER HALF is
2. Your Eyes Glow by Drifting_Stream    
Arthur's been acting strangely ever since he'd learned about Merlin's magic, which he found completely understandable. But asking Merlin to use magic in front of him, when it so obviously made the king uncomfortable? Obviously, Arthur was disgusted by his magic, by him. That had to be it. Right?
~~~
damn it’s like obliviousness is contagious. first arthur doesn’t notice merlin doing magic right in front of him, and now merlin doesn’t noticed [redacted]
3. Next to You (It's the Rule) by LunaMyLove    
Arthur and Merlin have a special relationship. They always have, even when they were prince and servant. While many question it when first noticing, eventually it becomes an understanding in Camelot—and even among some other countries—that where there is Arthur, there is Merlin. And, where there is Merlin, there is Arthur.
Or
Arthur and Merlin's relationship as witnessed and explained by others.
Also, or
Five times someone realizes that Merlin is the Queen, one time Merlin realizes it himself, and one time he owns it.
~~~
this is probably one of my all time fav fics. the humour is on point

Firstly, A Harrowing Childhood killed me in the best way possible. Loved the end of the convo where Merlin was all “oh actually that was fucked I will cry now” cuz like I’ve been there my dude. Anyway relatable reaction and incredibly heartbreaking story so thank you.
Second, would love to hear your take on this post. Saw it and immediately thought of what you would do with this prompt.
Keep up the great work! :)
(Referencing This Fic)
YAY!!! I really wanted to push the idea that, whilst Merlin knows it was bad, he doesn't realise how bad until he's confronted with how truly horrified and furious all the people who care about him are. Plus, recounting things like that, even without outside opinions, can make you realise things, especially if you're recounting things from childhood but as an adult. You come to certain... conclusions, and you have thought processes and opinions that you didn't have years ago, so it's natural for Merlin, who has chosen not to think about any of this for as long as possible, to go "oh.... OH...." now that he's thinking about it again.
~
As for That Post, 'tis very funny. I can imagine Merlin, for the first few weeks/months, just looking at Arthur with a raised eyebrow and a kinda weirded out, kinda amused smirk, before he finally realises that... oh. Arthur is just such a posh ponce he genuinely doesn't realise how down-in-the-mud dirty he sounds when he tries to use metaphors.
Then later on Arthur tries it for real, and though Merlin raises an eyebrow at Arthur's weird new nervousness, it doesn't even cross his mind that he might actually mean it. He's learned to look past it now, so it probably doesn't even register in his mind as "Oh, Arthur's sounding dirty/flirtatious again", it's just "Arthur is speaking. Ugh". So yeah, it takes Arthur actually going "Merlin, I'm trying to flirt. With you. For REAL. And I'm not joking or using this as some sort of weird metaphor for a punishment or job I have for you. I want to smell you. I like your... face, and... and hands? And I want to... yes, I want to put your mouth on my mouth." even then it's 50/50 whether Merlin gets it or not.
~
Up next is part 6 of Control, at long last!! For all those thinking they need some Hunith fluff after reading A Harrowing Childhood, you’re in luck!! This fic starts off with a big ol’ hug between Hunith and Merlin, and some tears, but only because they’ve missed each other so much!! Hopefully it should be with you at some point in the next week :D

Not My Type
A merthur/morgwen one-shot
In which Arthur hurts his wrist barely hours into a week-long tournament and is forced to watch from the sidelines. Merlin, unfortunately, is tasked with keeping him company. He decides to take his own spin on the task and what results is an imprompty game of ‘smash or pass’ with the contestants (all in the name of good sportsmanship, of course.)
Across the yard, Morgana is desperately trying to figure out what Gwen’s type is, while Gwen is desperately trying to steal her undivided attention from the ogling men so she will just look at her gods dammit!

Merlin: *starts singing*
Arthur’s thoughts: ohmygodohmygod he’s so perfect I didn’t know he could sing. He’s sounds just like I imagined, soft but rough in a low key hot way. It sounds so nice.
Also Arthur: will you cease your annoying babbling. Sounds like a dog died.
Merlins thoughts: :c
He didn’t like my singing..? I thought he liked it??? He was humming along yesterday..
Also Merlin: whatever dollop head it’s not like you could do any better.
Arthur proceeds to throw soothing at Merlin’s head, it was swiftly dodged. Then like a mature adult Merlin stuck his tongue out and Arthur did it back.
