1. Mistakes Well Made by TheCourtSorcerer

Arthur Pendragon is a famous Prosecuting Attorney, known for his dedication and success in his work. He is also the Pendragon of the newly re-named and re-branded Pendragon & LeFay Law Firm, he and Morgana LeFay, his half-sister and equally famous Family Law Lawyer, having become partners in the Firm after their father Uther Pendragon (the well-known if not famous Defense Attorney) retired and passed the Firm that his father founded to the two of them.

Merlin Emrys is the minorly overworked, but insanely well-paid, Personal Assistant to Arthur Pendragon. He is well-known to the public, due to being seen frequently with the man in question. They are rarely seen apart, even in the courtroom, where Merlin tends to sit in the back row and watch his boss work his hardest and simultaneously charm the court.

Morgana LeFay is "a cold-blooded she-devil who wants nothing more than to see me squirm, Merlin." She is also quite sick of seeing her married-to-his-work brother pine over his PA, and equally sick of seeing her overworked friend pine over her brother.

It takes only one accidental tweet to ruin Merlin's life.

Or does it?

this fic is so cute. i loved the author used text messages and tweets to tell some of the story, and the ending is pretty cute TT

2. Message Sent [A Minor Technical Error] by TheCourtSorcerer

Merlin stared in speechlessness at his desktop screen. His brain effectively short-circuited after reading ‘I’m madly attracted to you’ and he’d been re-reading the email for the past five minutes.

This email was not meant for him. He knew this email was not meant for him. It was very clearly not meant for him.

In fact, it stated multiple times, it was in fact meant for Morgana.

~~~

it’s another fic from the same author above, so you just know it’s going to be short and cute. enjoy!

3. Mustn't Flirt with your Assistant by Ivalee

Arthur knows he shouldn't flirt with his assistant. But that doesn't stop him doing it.

~~~

summary: In which Arthur gives Merlin gifts.

“No.” Morgana shook her head, “No, see you don’t understand.” Morgana took him by the shoulder and pulled him close as if to divulge a secret. 

“Arthur Pendragon does not give good gifts. He is actually the worst gift-giver in all of England.”

“Oh come on, the scarf isn’t that bad.” Merlin said, now kind of insulted for the piece of fabric.
