Merlin, Arthur/Merlin, Arthur struggles with his feelings for Merlin because homosexuality is no more acceptable than magic. claimed by alizarin_nyc
Merlin, Arthur/Merlin, Coming out as magic would put Merlin on the pyre. Coming out as gay wouldn't get him any punishment from the king himself, but in a town near Ealdor there were two men who lived together and were very close, and all he can remember when he wants to say something to Arthur is seeing what was left of them hanging from a tree when he went to visit his mother's cousins. claimed by sophinisba

Merlin, Gwen/Morgana, Because she's a Lady doesn't mean Morgana isn't aware of how the "real" world works, but she still has trouble understanding why Gwen won't stand closer to her when they are out in public. It occurs to her--in light of the closeness they shared when they were "simply" friends--that the distance between them now is more telling than anything else would ever be.
Merlin, Gwen/Morgana, Gwen has always been in love with Morgana but in Camelot, where magic is considered a deadly sin, homosexuality is just as bad. claimed by botherd
Merlin, Gwen/Morgana, negotiating the bounds of employment, class, and a secret relationship.

Morgana has seen the future and knows that it can't be her. Any and all combinations of the four of them you'd like...but I sort of like all four in the order I placed them in with Merlin and Morgana slightly to the outside of What Must Be Done and how they deal with their lovers being lovers.
Merlin, Morgana/OFC, someone arrives in Camelot with some new ideas.
