Submission messagefor Merlin and Arthur: merthur (merlin and Arthur from the BBC show merlin

Submission message for Steve and Bucky: Does Stucky count? Steve and Bucky from Captain America

Additional propaganda: I refuse to shut up about this. Merlin is not queerbait!! At no point during the show is there a genuine possibility of Arthur and Merlin to be in a romantic relationship. They are queer coded but they do not create a false impression of their relationship. See Sherlock for good example: they constantly bring it up in the show itself and dangle it in front of the viewers, only to not follow through. The show Merlin does not set them up. There are no offhanded remarks, comments, or jokes that they’re more than friends. There is simply no chance in the show that they will get together. They are queer coded, which is not the same. Coding says: this character displays some traits and characteristics that ___ people may relate to. Baiting says: oh you want these two together? hmm, you wanna see that? wouldn’t that be nifty? what if they talk about it and act like it? aren’t you gonna keep watching to find out if they really do? Then follows up with: SIKE! Wow we got you, of course they’re not together! All of that was meaningless! Let’s please stop confusing these two entirely separate concepts!

Merthur is just gay I don’t have to explain merthur on the merthur site. They’re talking to each other at night and giving each other flowers and shit— things Arthur NEVER does with his canon romantic love interest and if I’m not mistaken I think Arthur like goes to sleep for a hundred years and Merlin is like. Still waiting for him? Let them kiss, damn!

Stucky: "Of course, this is still a rollicking adventure tale and no adventure is complete without a love story.....the longest, most tortured one in Marvel history" - Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely (writers of Captain America movies + Avengers Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame)

"from the meet cute to the tragic separation, their bond has all the elements of a classic romance." - Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely

"Just as Jeph and Tim’’s earlier Daredevil: Yellow, Spider-Man: Blue, and Hulk: Gray all dealt with the major love interests in, the heroes’ lives, so too does Captain America: White. Steve and Bucky are each other’s soulmate." - Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely

“So you have a character in Captain America who is searching for the only thing that he has left from his past that has any meaning to him, and that’s Bucky; and people have interpreted that relationship all kinds of ways and it’s great...we will never define it, as filmmakers, explicitly." - The Russos (Captain America: Civil War press)

"You mean, aside from Cap and Bucky?" - Anthony Russo (co-director of Cap 2 and 3 and Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame) when asked about romance in Captain Amierca: Civil War

"Moderator: But you already had a romantic B story with Cap and Bucky, right?

Anthony: We sure do

Joe: We still do

Moderator: Did you ever had to dial down the sexual tension on set?

Joe: Why would we?" - Anthony and Joe Russo (directors of Cap 2 and 3 and Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame) at a screening of Captain America: Civil War

Just a few examples directly from Marvel and the writers and directors.

merthur totally should win for so many reasons but mostly. most because the show writer, when advertising the last episode, said it was “a love story between two men” and then arthur just died in merlin’s arms for 42 minutes. on the day before christmas.

I put the first episode of Merlin, because I heard it was such a great show. I knew nothing about the ship at that point. I only put it on because i love shows like that. Before the first episode was over I was like OMG those two are gayer than later seasons Destiel. There is no way it was not intentional. NONE. Big time homoerotic vibes. It was great

I get the coding critique, but I think I disagree with the person who said they never teased a relationship with Merthur. If we’re talking “offhanded jokes that they’re more than friends” (or that other characters thought they were together a la Sherlock), I think the poetry and pants scenes fit that.

begging you for hankus/hankconkus thoughts 🙏 (if you feel like sharing obv)

🥺😭 I just love them, and I only have vibes and not thoughts most of the time, but they'd be so good for each other.

Hank and Markus are so much alike, just, even on a surface level, (Connor has a type uwu) they're both these powerful men in leadership positions, and they got there by being intelligent and getting the job done but also by being compassionate and trying to take care of their communities, so you know they have similar worldviews when it comes to wanting to make a difference (acab, becoming a cop does not create positive change but 🙄 fictional setting, Hank's obviously a good man but ugh, we'll just take the canon at face value I guess, but wouldn't it be so cool if Hank and Connor quit and joined Jericho and worked on keeping the deviant population safe? That'd be some cool speculative fiction right there) but also from what we know about their preferred leisure activities, it's so easy to picture them just relaxing together, enjoying music or reading together. Hank loves real music, he'd be very charmed if Markus played piano for him.

I have a hard time seeing Markus not being just as open to being friendly with trustworthy humans as we think of Connor being, I think bonding with a new human, without the heavy emotional weight of having been owned being a component, might be really good for Markus' healing. Connor might introduce Hank to Markus as a human who's important to him, that he trusts who urged him to be free, and Markus might be weary from hearing constant distrust and opposition that Hank being his relaxed and friendly self would be a sight for sore eyes.

Markus on the other hand needs to do next to nothing to seduce a man, he had Connor's ass in less than five minutes flat, but Hank really can't help but admire Markus. I mean, canonically, he defends Markus and his revolution with his life, having never met Markus, LAYING DOWN HIS LIFE, can you imagine what he'd be like if they were together?

I have a everyone's human au that I'll never write that depicts all three of them as Dads, basically if dream daddy were even gayer, Hank naturally has Cole and has lost his wife, he and Connor have been friends for an unspecified amount of time, and Connor has Nines, who is a doorstep baby from a one night stand, and they've been platonically raising their boys together for years. Markus moves in nearby because he's recently gotten kinship custody of his elementary school aged and orphaned half brother Leo, also dealing with Carl's death. Markus is the protagonist of this story, he has the most Motive to make a plot run, because Hank and Connor have been dancing around their feelings for ages, distracted by the stressors of single parenthood, afraid to advance their relationship for fear of hurting their boys and themselves. BUT Markus needs help, from a couple of single dads who've been there done that, and Leo makes friends with Nines and Cole so *obviously* they have to have playdates and sleepovers together and Hank and Connor get closer and closer to Markus, making friends and getting crushes until finally Markus breaks the tension and suggests that they all get together 🥺

I'm sorry I haven't had enough brain to really give you something good to answer this ask, or to answer it in a timely manner, but if you or anyone else is interested, I actually have a discord server dedicated to this ship, and I'd love it if more folks joined

[strangesigils]

Sometimes when I open my tumblr one of your sigils is the first thing I see, and I always manifest them when that happens because it feels like a very good omen.

Thanks for the pick me up sigils, they're a big part of my routine in the day with your reblogs, and it always feels like a weight is lifted when I see one first thing. 💛

That's so sweet thank you so much! I think somebody a year ago told me they considered my daily sigil reblogs that show up on their dash to be like reading their horoscope

This is so wild to me honestly I'm so honored my sigils play such a consistent part of your day sometimes ❤

SPOILERS FOR ESCAPE FROM THE BLOODKEEP

***

💋💀💋

“Uncle Leiland?” He stops dead in his tracks and whips around just as he makes his way to the door. “My lord? Is something the matter?” Leiland Junior tilts his head, curious black eyes narrowing. “Are you in love with Markus?” The fact is, yes, he was and he still is. He was deeply in love with this swaggering bombastic pirate constantly away plundering the treasures of the world. What time they did get to spend before the next expedition was time they both treasured. He smiles dreamily. “I am, my lord. Happily so.” Leiland Juniors eyes widen excitedly. “What’s it like?”

Leiland shakes a little, startled at the monumental question. He chuckles to himself before sitting at the edge of his bed. “I will say this to you now, my lord, love is not infallible like tales will tell.” Leiland chuckles sombrely. “It can be cruel, it can be empty, it can be painful and worse. No getting around it, everyone regardless of what path they lead is bound to be wounded by love.” Leiland Junior furrows his brow in angered confusion. “So why did you do it? Why fall in love if it cannot be trusted?!” The Prince protested vehemently.

Leiland’s pallor skin breaks into a soft amorous grin, the tips of his ears and the top of his cheekbones lightly glowing. “Because to be in love, my lord, is a splendorous thing. You feel like you are all and nothing at once. I am a spirit bound for celestial heights, but being in love is the closest I have ever been to being one with the gods.” Leiland Junior sat up in bed, awed at this discovery. “Markus makes you feel that way?” Leiland laughs to himself wistfully. “Markus makes me feel that way, yes. I have lived two lifetimes, my lord. Though I loathe now the lives I lead, if living them exactly as I had would have lead me to meet and fall in love with Markus St Vincent all over again, know that I would do it again with a song in my cold dead heart. I would endure everything I ever went through just to fall in love for the first time with that wonderful man without a doubt in my mind. That is what love is like to me my lord.” Leiland’s cold hand lovingly rubs behind Leiland Junior’s growing horns. “I hope one day you will be able to tell me what love is like to you.”

Leiland tucks the young demon lord back into his bed and rises to his feet. “Rest, my lord. Your lessons reconvene tomorrow morning, you’ll need your strength.” The youngling groans but nestles into his bed, murmuring his goodnight to Leiland as he dispels the lights in the room.

Leiland’s room always felt empty without Markus’s presence now. He summons his sending stone from his bedside to his hand. It glows in his grasp and he awaits melancholically for an answer.

It rings.

And it rings.

And it rings.

And it rings.

And it rings.

And it-

There’s a dramatically loud yawn from the other end. “Well… good evening to you too, love. How you been?” Markus grumbles, his voice like tumbling gravel. It brings a smile to Leiland’s typically icy visage. “Better. You’re finishing soon, correct?” Markus’s exhausted laugh echoes from the stone. “On our way back, I managed to get those repairs done sooner than I thought thankfully. You missing lil ol’ me, Leiland?” Leiland huffs out a bubbly chesty laugh, flopping back onto his bed. “Always. Especially now. Our lord mentioned you, mentioned us. He-he wanted to know what… love is like.” There is a brief silence between the two as the truth settles in. “What’d you tell ‘em?” Markus asked. Leiland smiles, staring up into the canopy of his bed. “The truth. That it is different with everyone and… not always a benevolent thing. And of course what love meant to me. Our love.” Markus hums approvingly. “Only good things I hope?” Leiland hums responding. “Entirely. I couldn’t lie to my liege and godson.”

The two speak exhaustedly of their day until the hour grows late and the claws of tempting sleep begins to make its claim on both of them. Silence mournfully stretches between them. “I miss you, Lee.” Markus murmurs sleepily. “I know. You’re coming home. Wait a little longer. I will be.” Leiland mutters assuringly into his sending stone. A part of his heart sinks as he watches the light fade from the stone, he concedes that his fair captain was exhausted from his travels and all the moving that comes with business. ‘He’s coming home.’ Leiland thinks to himself as the world begins to fade to black. ‘He’s coming back to me. To us.’ Leiland succumbs to sleep, a peaceful smile upon his wispy features.

What if Connor showed signs of deviancy long before he met Markus - hell, before he even met Hank? What if a certain PL600, fear and regret shining bright in his eyes, brought a new sensation that Connor’s system could only classify as an error? What if, with every passing day, a certain plastic cop reminded Hank more and more of the child he lost?

What if Kara and Alice spent the night in the abandoned house and left as a party of three? What if, after a rather unconventional meeting, relations were to develop in ways no one could have expected? What if, for the first time since deviating, a certain gardener was free of his constant fear and worry upon meeting a particular red-headed android?

What if Markus found himself attracted to a certain blond from the moment he landed in Jericho? What if he was unwilling to neither kill nor leave him on the rooftop of Stratford tower? What if an unexpected interface suddenly made his world so much clearer, as if deviating for a second time?
