the tragedy of merthur is so insane to me. it’s everything. it’s “i will love you in every universe” and “i will love you if it kills me” and “i will love you after you die” and “the love that we shared existed and because of that i will persevere” and “i will stay alive so i can love your memory longer” and “if i ever lost you i would see you in everything” and “i will love you if you hate me” and “i love you in all the ways that i was never loved”

fun fact!! people in religious life are not boring!!!! i’ve met priests and brothers who can skateboard and breakdance!! and nuns who can rap and beatbox and tell you about niche topics you never knew you were interested in!!

people (and media especially) always paint them as these incredibly strict and damning antagonists and i’ve literally never met a single one of them that is remotely like that!!!!

i’ve been around people in religious life since i was born and they’re such incredible and sweet people!!

(i’m not saying every single one of them are amazing- i know people have different experiences)

hc: merlin can outrun all the knights because he’s always running around the kingdom saving arthur and completing errands for gaius and his tasks as arthur’s servant.

when arthur finds out he is so shocked he just stands there until merlin waves him to follow

when merlin leaves to go back to ealdor arthur says “you’ll come back though” cause he can’t FATHOM merlin leaving him forever. and then he first night merlin is gone, the first night, arthur sneaks out of the castle to come fight with him. so that he will come home with him after. this is 10 episodes after they meet btw

when matthew fairchild said “am i so hard to love?” he did not realize that he had never been unloved

the fact that charlotte branwell canonically had the electrum whip before isabelle did is so wonderful like yes charlotte you would have loved to see her in action

wolfstar is the percabeth for the marauders fandom

the real reason bbc didn’t let us see merlin and arthur interact after arthur found out about the magic was because if he would see merlin’s eyes go gold he’d be so attracted to him that he would end up divorcing gwen and making merlin his husband court sorcerer

the chemistry they had in the third book is unparalleled and then she marries this guy that we don’t meet until the wedding????

Im re-reading the penderwicks series and i’ve never read the last one so i’m super disappointed that Skye and Jeffrey don’t end up together

in s1e8 when merlin helps arthur and morgana break little mordred out of the dungeons, the dragon has already told merlin to let the boy die, and we can see his hesitation, but when arthur asks him to help merlin agrees because his love for arthur is greater than his fears

that’s a love story if you ask me

william herondale really told jem carstairs he was his conscience and shoved his hands into a fire to retrieve drugs for jem and people think alec and jace are the better parabatais

bbc merlin wrecks me every time i think about it because it could have been so much.

arthur found out about merlin’s magic at the end but we never got to see them talk about it. arthur never really understood just how much merlin did for him. arthur never got to be comfortable with the idea of his best friend having magic, and merlin never got the total acceptance of his best friend

Oooh you just made me think that it would be even BETTER if the person who cursed him thought it was very funny (idk they know he is Emrys for example) and make fun of him "how pathetic. " and they curse Merlin with glowing mark on his wrist or something that won't go away until his wish is fulfilled

Cue to canon divergent au where Arthur clumsily & hopelessly tries to make merlin fell loved and cherished but it doesn't work and merlin won't say him anything.

I think it would be very neat if they get into an argument at some point because Arthur is getting frustrated and so is Merlin. And merlin scream something like "You can't do it because you don't know me!" "Then why don't you tell me!!!" and they look at each other with anguish but Merlin doesn't say anything and Arthur stays silent too. And you know, years of keeping your mouth shut won't stop like that so the silence keep on and on and on until Arthur let out a weakly laugh and he could say something hurtful. Something spiteful. He has the word ready to flow from his mouth but to his greatest surprise only a broken "I'm sorry" Because what else can you say to your dearest friend of 10 years when you failed him?

And well, Merlin still can't bear to say, to tell but he takes a few steps and gently take Arthur's hand in his. He lets his head fell on his friend's shoulder.

Maybe this isn't so bad, to let the wound bleed under the moonlight. The sunlight still a bit too bright, too warm. Someday they will face it, they will have to look at the pool of blood under the harsh sun. They will have to warp it, but not yet, not tonight.

Au where Merlin is forced to say his deepest secret but the secret that he blurs out isn’t actually ‘I have magic’ or ‘I love you’ but ‘I wish to be loved and cherish for who I am and for everything I am’

the fact that four episodes in merlin is calling arthur’s name out while unconscious and preforming magic to keep him safe and alive while merlin himself is dying is the definition of love no i will not elaborate

[buzzbuzzlittlebees]

merlin arthur and morgana would have been such a dream team for camelot i’m so upset that we didn’t see more of them. they could have been so much

luke doesn’t know that perfect harmony exists because it only exists in julie’s head why why why
