Summary: Merlin is Arthur’s new secretary and is oddly appealing. Also, just to complicate things, eccentric Uther has introduced a penpal scheme within the office to promote team unity, and despite initially being at blows, Arthur and his anonymous penpal are getting on extremely well. Somehow Arthur has to balance his physical attraction to Merlin, and his emotional attraction to his penpal… While baking some exceptional puddings, because lemon drizzle cake is nice.

Summary: Mella Sonder is hired as the AI caretaker and, unwittingly, the personal assistant to Annie Inkwyrm, the head of Inkwyrm fashion magazine. Annie is demanding to put it lightly, but the two manage to form a friendship. They and the others on the station grapple with challenges both big and small from deeply rooted anger and familial betrayal to running a meeting while bodyswitched and trying to figure when Annie and Mella are going to get together, already.

Summary: Pendragon Books is to London's bookselling industry what Sauron is to Middle-Earth: Bad fucking news.

Merlin could also compare them to Voldemort and the magical world in Britain, or maybe the White Witch and Narnia, but no matter what analogy he picks, the point remains the same: Wherever Pendragon Books pops up with a new shop, existing businesses die a painful death, robbing their city of more and more personality and character. Therefore it comes as a bit of a shock when they're settling in right across the street from Merlin's bookshop, and Merlin finds out that Arthur Pendragon himself is gorgeous and unreasonably easy to talk to, and - worst of all - a bit of a nerd.

However, not only is Merlin most definitely not fraternising with the enemy, he's also already sort of dating someone. So what if it started on Grindr, and is only through text messages?

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.


“Merlin, the scarf is perfect for you. It’s a good gift. Arthur doesn’t give good gifts.”

Summary: Dr. Ryan Dalias is the new surgeon on Eos 10. He must contend with the newly and reluctantly sober Dr. Urvidian, the determined nurse Jane Johns, the hypochondriacal deposed price Levi, and the wanted terrorist Akmazian who claims his innocence.
