Merlin
Borderlands by anonymous formerlin_holidays, R, Merlin/Arthur, 10,000 words, When Arthur is separated from his knights by a mysterious fog on the Mercian border, he finds himself trapped in a place that seems to balance between dream and reality. To regain his freedom he must put his trust in one of Lord Bayard's closest men - a man who calls himself Merlin.
This story showed me that I'm really specific when it comes to my tastes in AUs. I need a fork, I cannot do pure Canon Era AUs where the positions of the characters in canon is different from the very beginning because it leaves the characters strangely without contours for me - they're not Merlin and Arthur (whom I thought was way too polite given that we met an utter prat in S1) and the decontextualized setting (which is the point of the Borderlands, yes) only added to that.
