#admit it Arthur

[thefabledpheasant]

Do you guys ever imagine what the night after Arthur met Merlin was like for Arthur?

Like, I imagine him going through the normal motions of his night, but constantly thinking about this random guy that dared to insult the prince. And yeah, now that guys in the stocks because he should be… right?

But ever since that encounter Arthur can’t stop thinking about it and it’s not because he hated it. He feels different. It felt different being around him. Why? Why does he feel a small ember of excitement at the idea of seeing him again?

He’s frustrated by all of this. What happened shouldn’t be affecting him this much. It doesn’t matter. And yet it feels like he just met someone he didn’t know he was waiting for.

“There’s something about you, Merlin… I can’t quite put my finger on it”

arthur being able to feel merlins magic whenever he uses it bc it makes him feel all warm and tingly and at first he's stumped about it and goes to morgana for advice bc hello?? merlin makes him feel weird?? and its only merlin. it only happens when he's around. it's gotta be his fault. and morgana is like "lol nerd you like him" and he's like "oh fuck" bc he has the emotional intelligence of a walnut and begins to notice the warm and fuzzy feeling grows stronger the closer merlin is and is like "welp. im screwed" and then a magic reveal later and arthur notices the feeling happens whenever merlin uses magic and he's like "oh. thank god." and finally realizes the feeling was merlin's magic, not that arthur has feelings for him. it becomes the new norm and then merlin is dressing him for the day and makes a stupid joke before ducking arthur's hand that was going to cuff his ear, he laughs and walked around behind arthur and the warm, fuzzy feeling returns and he's like "stop. no cheating." and merlin is confused and arthur's like "i can feel you using magic, idiot. remember?" and merlin is like "i'm not using magic tho" and arthur scoffs like "alright, sure, whatever you say."

THIS becomes the new norm of merlin and arthur bantering and then arthur accusing him of using magic and merlin insisting that he isn't. then finally the feeling happens when merlin is staring directly at arthur, comforting him in a moment of vulnerability, and arthur can see his eyes remain blue but he feels as he normally does when merlin uses magic. he still accuses merlin of using magic but merlin just rolls his eyes and once again insists that he isn't, arthur can literally see when he uses magic bc his eyes flash gold. did they flash gold just now? hm? did they arthur? arthur then rebuts "then why did i feel all warm and fuzzy?" and merlin blinks thrice before grinning like the cat who caught the canary. he won't tell arthur about his feelings for merlin, he'll let him flounder for a bit. it's always fun to watch him be an idiot and as much as he wants to kiss his stupid face bc finally (finally) his feelings are reciprocated, it's enough for now to know that arthur feels the same. arthur is infuriated that merlin won't tell him. merlin is highly amused at his stupid not yet boyfriend

Merthur confession, but it comes in the form of Arthur being dramatic about Merlin's magic and is constantly accusing him of trying to enchant him, and it gets to the point where Merlin is like,

"Arthur, I love you to death, and I would watch this world crumble to ashes if that is what you want, BUT I AM BEGGING YOU TO STOP ASSUMING EVERYTHING I GIVE YOU IS A ENCHANTMENT, PLEASE!"

And Arthur is like, "Wait, you love me?" In this super soft voice.

Then Merlin's face goes red as he fumbles around for an excuse before just giving a half-hearted "prat" and running out of the room.

okay merlin cheering for arthur in the first tournament he’s watching him in is Cute jdhdhdh

[localgardenweed]

I think they’re crushing on each other your honor

[jxmimac]

Ok but I feel like we don’t talk enough about the fact that if Merlin genuinely tried to commit any form of treason including killing the king, he could (and has) just speak openly about it, discuss his plans with the knights, and they’d just be like ‘great, when do we start?’

By the end of the show ALL of them had more loyalty to Merlin than they did to Arthur and it was just accepted as a fact of life😆

I have an eye checkup in a week and I was thinking. In the unlikely situation Arthur got forced into an eye appt. It would be chaos. Obviously he does not want to be legally declared blind, so he would probably coach John on how to pass the eye tests? But I feel like it would still go very bumpy.

Optometrist: alright, and can you read the line of letters that's third up from the bottom?

John: Oarthur why do I have to do this

Arthur: *pinches John's hand*

John: *sigh* F, E, L, O...

Meanwhile the optometrist is just confused why this guy is able to perfectly read it off but taking so so long

Alternatively, they find out that John actually needs glasses.

John: Oarthur... I can't tell if that's an O or a Q

Arthur: *blue screens* I... I can't tell if it's an O or Q..

When they get glasses John is amazed. ("It's so easy to read the sign at the end of the block!" "That's how it's supposed to be, John."

This post was brought to you by my denial in my degrading eyesight as a direct result of staying up late reading fanfic or drawing.

And remember kids, the next time someone tells you, "George R. R. Martin wouldn't make Jon Snow the typical fantasy hero because that's cliche".....

Oh yes he would!

One viewer wants to know what character would you play (on the show)? GRRM: If I could magically clap my hands and become a different person, it would be cool to play Jon Snow who's much more of the classic hero. Everybody wants to be the classic hero! ABC Interview, 2014

GRRM: And the character I’d want to be? Well who wouldn’t want to be Jon Snow — the brooding, Byronic, romantic hero whom all the girls love. Meduza Interview, 2017

In fact he already has ☺️

merlin being so overwhelmed by everything he’s been put under, crumbling under the weight of destiny and being pulled in so many different directions he’s being torn apart, going to the one person who can offer him the most comfort out of everyone, his best friend, his other half. arthur who doesn’t realize whats happening until he turns and sees merlin’s desolate expression and tear filled eyes. merlin going “i know you are king (or prince) and you refuse to call me your friend, but you are mine and i really, really need my friend right now.” and before arthur can manage a word, merlin is stumbling forward into arthur’s arms and pulling him into a desperate hug, muffling his sobs as best he can but arthur can still feel the tears soaking his shoulder. arthur not asking any questions and just wrapping his arms around merlin while he breaks down.

You know who dealing with medical stuff would be bad for especially? America and England. Because of their different personalities. America is loud, demanding and a little whiny so he would be accused of crying wolf and not get treatment because no one takes him seriously. England is stiff upper lip and hates asking for help (that stereotype is so true. I used to live in North England and Brits don’t ask even if they’re on fire) so the doctors take him at his word even though they know what their own people are like. America would be hugging his stomach and sobbing in pain but his doctors tell him to suck it up and quit being a pussy. England says he feels fine and not to fuss so his doctors shrug and send him home even though he’s paper white and bleeding. Then they’re both in a coma/dying/dead an hour later

Absolutely. America literally has no self preservation, but he always advocates for himself when he recognizes that he needs something. Unfortunately, he has to deal with a lot of rude/stuck-up doctors who think they know better than him because he's "young" and seen as unintelligent. I imagine a lot of the time, he isn't even given adequate anaesthesia because people think his super strength means he has a super high pain tolerance. He also definitely gets told "maybe you should lose weight" when he tells doctors about his symptoms.

England on the other hand is exactly like you said. He's the type of guy to go to work while violently ill. I feel like his doctors know when he's clearly ill, but they're either too lazy to run tests, or they genuinely think that nations can tolerate any medical problem. England is also more likely to be turned away from the ER or emergency surgery because the wait time is too long and they prioritize humans over nations in emergency room.

‘Merthur’ and, ‘platonic’ aren’t even in the same category. You can’t convince me that they aren’t gay for each other, bro.

[epic-sorcerer]

“Arthur can totally dress himself he’s just spoiled” why are you giving him that much credit

[theroundbartable]

I still can't help but imagine Future Merlin inventing time travel like...

He's been to space, explored universes, established whole civilisations, has his own space ship and one day he invents time travel in between lunch and afternoon snack.

He completely forgets that he could go back to Camelot because he's 5000 years old and that story was ages ago. But then, randomly, he encounters a planet that IS still spreading the story of Arthur and Merlin decides:

"it's time to meet an old friend".

And he just DROPS into the right timeline with his giant space ship, in his space outfit and everything, walks into Arthur's Camelot and just waves: "heya, did you miss me?"

And no one understands a word because language has evolved so much and Merlin forgot most of it, but he eventually gets it.

Yet, Arthur, sitting on his throne, is just absolutely overwhelmed: "MERLIN? what the FUCK?"

Merlin: "yeah, okay, funny thing. I'm not going to stay for too long, I have a dinner reservation with Queen Graaanta of planet Xvaccen. I just wanted to drop by, see how it's going, meet an old friend."

Arthur: "you... Huh?"

Young Merlin: what on earth happened?"

Old Merlin: "didn't exactly happen on earth, tbf. But eh... Good news, Magic hasn't been illegal in over 5000 years. Great, huh? 😀"

Young Merlin: *ashens*

Arthur: "that's a GOOD thing to you?!?!?!"

Old Merlin: "bro, I'm the reason why."

Young Merlin: "what the HELL are you doing!!!! You shouldn't... "

Arthur: "you have magic?!"

Old Merlin: "no, I've lived 5000 years on a well balanced diet. Of course I have magic. I AM magic! Jesus Christ, I forgot how stuck up ya'all are about this."

Arthur: "you lied to me!"

Old Merlin: "hey, not fair. I came here and immediately told you. That's the opposite of lying."

Arthur: "I meant HIM"

Old Merlin: "Not fair either. He came here, TOLD you he could defeat you with less than a blow and also confessed to having magic at your father's court. That's not lying, that's you being demented. Now, can we skip your freaking out? I actually came here to see Gwen and Gwaine and oh jolly , Lancelot is still alive? Heck yeah, awesome!"

Arthur: ... "What about me?"

Old Merlin: "we can talk when you're less murdery towards me."

Arthur: ...

Young Merlin: ...
