if you weren't so messed up I'd think you are beautiful vs you are so messed up and I think that makes you beautiful

Arthur: You've been behaving pretty well these last three days.

Arthur: You are like a real manservant now, addressing me correctly, polishing my armour...

Arthur: ...

Arthur: Something is wrong.

Merlin: Sire, I--

Arthur: Shut up, Merlin. Take a sword and let's go make trouble.

Sirius: James, did you do that essay Minnie asked about the philosopher's stone?

James: Yeah, here you go.

James: You know? I think it's wild, what that Flamel guy did. The immortality thing.

James: Just think about it: "the immortal marauders", doing pranks to infinity cuz they can never get old.

James: Can you imagine being one age forever? Never getting past your 20's? Isn't that wild?

Remus Lupin, age 37: Yes.

Leon can't watch this anymore. His majesties weird obsession with Merlin aside, the boy can't keep coming along on each patrol and mission, completely unprotected! No armor, no weapons, nothing!

It's time.

Leon wordlessly drags Merlin aside and teaches him fighting the proper way. He's the one who taught Arthur the way around the sword and even if Merlin isn't royal, Leon's gonna keep this boy alive and if it's the most taxing task he's ever done!

When Leon finds out about Merlin's magic, he's not mad. Quite the opposite. There is a gleam in his eyes.

Leon: well, this I can work with

Merlin: huh?

Leon: you help me practice how to inspect magical spells and I'll dig out some ancient battle magic books that you're gonna study

Merlin: but... Aren't you mad?

Leon Immortal ass: what?

this is an insane, hurtful and sad as fck idea for a post canon au... but canon Merlin was also like that, airing its last episode on Christmas eve, so I make this canonp

Merlin Post-Canon AU where Arthur reincarnates over and over again and Merlin keeps looking for him and always arrives just a little too late to save his life.

12 years and still suffering Arthur Pendragon's death

Merlin would be proud

Merlin: Arthur, I'm gay for you

Arthur: Tell me something I don't know

Merlin: I have magic

Arthur: YOU'RE WHAT?!

i remember quite well when I started reading the last chapters of half lost,

this because I didn't want to read them

I knew what was coming, and not only because I read some time before some spoilers, but because books like that always end badly for the gays :(

I delayed the reading of the last chapters (just where Nathan covers Gabriel with his body from the bullets, knew it'd be there where the nightmare would start), til I thought I was ready (several weeks after)

Then I read it.

And again.

And again.

The same chapter.

Cried all the way to the very end. I got even sadder reading Nathan's depression and alusinations about Gabriel and then the damn end of the book. My eyes couldn't believe the last chapter from Ceelia's pov. Devastating.

Do I recommend the book? For its devastation, the heartbreaking, despicable, unworthy and unfair finale... Yes

nonono listen to me, Charles could have said Edwin that he loves him but not in that way and he would always be his best mate, and it would have been okay, but he said there would be time for them to sort this feelingsand I don't know if it's a polite way of rejecting him or if he's telling him "It's not the time but when it is I'll tell you" or if it's because he has to sort his feeling before or or

me

Yes! I think this is true for 2024

Nothing like reading out of the blue in a rainy day with a cup of coffee, covered in blankets because it's chilly outside... but it's actually middle August, and you're trembling and you're crying in your room. And you're out of coffee.

Merlin: I'll start calling trauma lore

Gwaine: Are you okay?

Merlin: No, I'm lored

Context for my sorrow

I'm cursed.

Every time I say the word "maybe'' it reminds me of Arthur Pendragon

“In every other universe Mary McDonald falls for Sirius Black and in every other universe it doesn't end well”

"Should i tell my husband I'm gay?"

And they're literally two men who've been married for the last five years

[d-one-in-the-dirty-trench-coat]

I'm cursed.

Every time I say the word "maybe'' it reminds me of Arthur Pendragon

didn't know there were ATYD short stories. My life is a little better now. Probably when I finish reading them it will be a little worst, bit for now I am happy
