There's a fic where they're both famous writers and they are on the same panel at a convention or something. They fight over Dickens and their relationship builds from there. Very good story.

Ah--"Fundamental Imperfection" by Starlingthefool: http://archiveofourown.org/works/387876

Feel better!

- Friday Night with Arthur and Merlin (http://archiveofourown.org/works/536117) : Arthur Pendragon and Merlin Emrys are Hollywoods power couple, they go on a late night talk show for a joint interview.

- It Felt Like Goodbye/Hello (http://pasty-pants.livejournal.com/90790.html) : In which Arthur lives in the public eye, Merlin cannot control his chinese food, and Jonathan Ross wants to know how Sophia fits into all this.

It's Nice to Finally Tweet You (https://archiveofourown.org/works/1834075) : Merlin's eyes scan the headline.

Arthur Pendragon reveals mark in attempt to find the one.

"I pity the guy who's unfortunate enough to get him as a soul mate.”

In which Arthur is a famous celebrity, Merlin is a beloved teacher, and they break Twitter once. Well, twice. Okay so it's a whole bunch of times actually but it's not their fault. Really it's not.

(There's an 'interview' at the end of the fic)

In Your Name (http://archiveofourown.org/works/4291413/chapters/9722670) : For someone with so many secrets, Merlin doesn't think he's very good at lying. So agreeing to discuss his friendship with the Prince of Wales at University as part of a televised documentary is probably not a good idea. Juggling magic, Royal protocol, suave (and persistent) Dukes, a Princess with attitude, and a serious amount of coursework was only the start. Oh and then there was Arthur himself. Yeah, probably shouldn't mention much about that...

(The whole fic is basically Merlin being interviewed/flashbacks. One of my favourite fics ever!)

- Tulips Are Better; Dragons Are Best (http://archiveofourown.org/works/945499/chapters/1845484) : Arthur loses a bet with Morgana and ends up on The Bachelor. As he identifies as bisexual, the pool of candidates is quite diverse and includes one Merlin Emrys, his ex. Arthur thinks it's fate. Merlin thinks it's bollocks. Thus begins (again) their courtship ( ... )
