A few things which are “canon” somewhere for people who are worried they’re stretching it too far

Arthur was killed by a giant cat. 

Arthur killed the cat.

Arthur didn’t fight the cat. Kay did.

Kay and Bedivere use salmon as taxis. 

Lucan is half giant, half lion. (This Lucan, Lucano in the original Italian, is evil and not related to Bedivere). 

King Arthur raided the land of the dead.

The human knight Caradoc Briefbras has three half siblings: a dog, a horse, and a pig.

A large portion of Arthur’s troops was killed a while before Camlann by his nephew’s attack ravens in self-defense. Arthur and said nephew were playing chess at the time and neither did much to stop it.

Merlin retired peacefully and went to live in the countryside with Taliesin.

Wherever Arthur walks, plants die. They don’t grow back for years.

Arthur had a spunky (half?) brother who died in battle after making a mysterious oath.

Dagonet is more or less able to run the kingdom when Arthur is gone. His biggest error is overspending on mercenaries.

Guinevere has an evil almost identical twin half-sister.

Hector beat up all the best knights except for Galahad while possessed by a demon.

Gawain plays tennis.

Gawain has used a chessboard as a weapon.

Near the start of his reign, Arthur left Lot in charge of the kingdom and went on a quest with a sassy parrot.

Gawain or Galahad succeeded Arthur as king.

Innocent Sky looking at a snail

I think this was the only appropriate way to draw Sky's sticker lol

I had a hell of a time drawing his neck for it to look proportionate but it was worth it I live him :')

As always, every sticker that I made is available on my Etsy : https://kotsuyadesign.etsy.com/listing/1757110481

KING ARTHUR (2004) set design appreciation: ― Hadrian's Wall: The Roundtable [3/?] inspired by @lady-arryn wonderful set design series [x]

KA20TH CELEBRATION | Day 4 - Home

AN: How can I do this series and not include The Roundtable? Gosh the empty seats are a gut punch to the heart. So many men sat around this table but only six survived. So many years lost to an Empire that hey were forced to serve and to cause they didn't even believe in. But they all believed in Arthur and that's all that matters. (P.S. I love that Arthur and Lancelot are sitting next to each other 🤭)

Also to anyone who's writing fics for this film, feel free to use this has visual inspiration if you're struggling with imagery or what-not💖

“Merlin is the best Arthurian legend character!”

“No, it’s Arthur!”

“No, it’s Lancelot!”

WRONG! Ya know who the REAL one is??? Sir Dagonet!”

YOU may like the funky wizard or the himbo knight, but MY man was Arthur’s cpurt jester before he was knighted AND fake kidnapped Lancelot for funsies AND killed a man cos he kidnapped his wife (and then subsequently went mad but it happens to us all)

[queer-ragnelle]

Have you heard of the new post-Camlann Arthuriana book coming out soon? It's called "The Bright Sword"!

I had not so I just looked it up. I’ve never read Lev Grossman’s “The Magicians” but this premise rules.

I’m in the middle of Bernard Cornwell’s “The Warlord Chronicles” & I love Derfel; I’ve been streaming in my Arthurian Theater Server the show “The Adventures of Sir Lancelot” & I love Brian. I am PRO original characters in these stories & I love Palomides & Dagonet! Thank you for this recommendation I’m going to pre-order it asap.

dagonet yaoi ranked

dagonet x arthur: the obvious one! arthur loves dagonet and respects him and trusts him more than his knights when shit starts hitting the fan near the end. and needless to say dagonet is a devoted freak about arthur (that whole monologue about how he wants to be put on a leash and whimper at his feet comes to mind) so they're textbook king/jester yaoi except sweeter because there's never any backstabbing or abuse. 10/10

dagonet x merlin: toxic mentor/mentee relationship when they're younger but kind of sweet in a cringe old man way when they're just two old freaks. ea robinson wrote them as camelot's final girls that leave camelot together and grieve their king in each other's arms at a nearby tavern. 8/10

dagonet x kay: kay causes him bodily harm whenever they share a scene which makes sense since dagonet's whole job is to run his mouth and kay is very easily offended. but sometimes they play practical jokes on enemies together? also they are both influential and close with arthur but nobody takes them seriously bc they're gay and annoying. which makes them perfect for my clown4clown agenda. :) 11/10

dagonet x gawain: similarly to arthur, gawain loves and respects dagonet - sometimes he's even the one who knights him instead of arthur (everyone booed)! they swap narrative roles the closer the story gets to the fall of camelot as dagonet acts as a more serious figure warning everyone about how the end is nigh while gawain becomes the Fool whose hatred and rash decisions guarantee the end will be nigh. lots of fun characterization to work with. plus they genuinely like each other! 9/10

dagonet x lancelot: i don't think there's much going on between them aside from the story where dagonet thinks himself unworthy of even attempting the grail quest but then the grail secretly manifests for him when lancelot is injured and near death and he uses it to save him and never tells anyone what happened. kind of sweet! i love 19th/20th century arthuriana, i do. 6/10

dagonet x dinadan: i personally think they should unionize against the jocks but dinadan is funny in a cool girl way while dagonet is funny in a cringe theatre kid way so they probably steer clear of each other. sad! 3/10

dagonet x tristan: tristan tried to drown dagonet during one of his hissy fits but it's tristan so i can't really spin this into homoeroticism the way i can with kay. not least bc he drowned him so hard dagonet stopped appearing in texts for like 500 years after that one. 0/10

[ruckis-vandalizes]

I ended up recycling two characters recently, repurposing them to be Ruckis and Geragera's Gaurdian Angels respectively. Gaurdian Angels being a race in OotS (creative name I know /sar)
