You ever think about how the knights would react to Merlins magic reveal - they are the knights of the roundtable, and proud of it too, because they earned that title, have fought many battles and won, and „there‘s a reason, i‘m a camelot knight“- and then, that reason is just.. Merlin.

Not as if they wouldn‘t actually be brave and loyal and great fighters and all that, they are, but there‘s got to be a little bit of identity crisis happening when they realize what merlin has done all these years, all the „yeah you definitly slayed that beast and surely not i, who was hiding and not killing it with my magic from over there“

The knights love and hate Merlin coming to training. They love it because Merlin is their little cheerleader and they seem to perform better when Merlin is there to cheer them on. They hate it because he never cheers Arthur on and Arthur gets jealous and shows off to catch Merlin’s attention which means that Arthur performs better when Merlin is there which makes him a demon on the field. Which means the knights have to visit Gaius after training to get new bruise salves and that one time when Percival had to get his broken nose set because he ducked too late when Arthur was swinging the hilt of his sword down because he was exhausted from how hard Arthur was pushing them

I love to think that even though Merlin didn’t actually go to taverns, he still has a high alcohol tolerance.

*Knights of the round table passed out drunk*

*Merlin on his 10th round*

Then them waking up the next day in their rooms with a horrible hangover and Merlin’s just there smiling like he didn’t just drink everyone even Gwaine.

Like this fandom, my love for this show will never die. I am glad that I took the time to do this for myself and I love how it turned out! Maybe I'll do a full page of quotes at one point!

You can just make up Knights of the Round Table by the way. People used to do it all the time.

Merlin and the knights playing never have I ever

At first, it's innocent stuff and Gwaine complains that it's all dull trivia and they need to start getting into the more interesting questions. Leon looks him dead in the eyes and says "Fine. Never have I ever been arrested" Literally everyone but Leon drinks.

From that point it becomes a challenge to see who's done the most outrageously criminal shit "Never have I ever been in a bar fight" "Never have I ever committed identity fraud" "Never have I ever broken someone out of the dungeons" "Never have I ever stolen from the royal vaults" "Never have I ever committed treason with the King still in the room" And Merlin. Just. Keeps. Drinking. Now it's about trying to find something Merlin hasn't done but one of the others has. The answer turns out to be "Never have I ever been banished from a kingdom"

Merlin passes out before he runs out of criminal things he's done. Magic is the only reason he's still alive the next morning after how high his blood alcohol level was.

After Merlin passes out the knight just look at each other wondering how Merlin hasn't been executed yet with all the shit he's done. Gwaine chuckles and shakes his head "Perks of being the king's mistress"

This might be the only time I’ve seen Leon without armour on

He’s always ready for a war

And I love him for that

[theroundbartable]

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?

post magic reveal the knights all waiting for Merlin to pretending and 'acting a fool' now that they know his secret, only....he's not. Pretending or acting a fool, that is. They keep expecting him to be a different person then they knew, and he keeps....not doing that. He's still a shit liar, he can not tell an untruth successfully; that's never been in his skill set. He's still a clumsy oaf. Yes, yes, he's God, also can not hold his alchohol. He's objectively inhuman and he'll never stop crying over dead animals. He can do literally whatever he wants, and what he wants is to remain a servant with seven shirts three scarfs and two jackets to his name. This insistance will not stop him from bitching about being hungry or tired or cold, even though technically he doesn't need to eat or sleep or feel tempatures if he doesn't want to.

the knights coming to terms with the dicotomy of 'basically god' and also. 'their little guy'. Like he's their little guy, AND he's basically god.

there's an obvious answer
