morgause calling merlin out is so fucking funny “why are you so obsessed with arthur merlin 🤨???”
i like to think that the antagonist had a silent agreement that merlin is just a clumsy servant who had a one-sided crush on arthur that somehow managed to stay alive and ruin their plan every single time for reasons unknown
Morgana: when i was in camelot back then those two were kinda 👨❤️👨

just finished my rewatch of all five seasons of bbc's merlin, and my sister and i decided it would be fun to keep count of how many times merlin saved arthur's life throughout the show, so here is an accumulated list:
(disclaimer: it is absolutey possible that we weren't always watching attentively and that we might have missed a case or two, but i like to believe that it is kinda accurate)
times arthur would have died if merlin hadn't saved him
• 1x01: dagger thrown at arthur ⟶ merlin slowed down time to pull arthur out of the way
• 1x02: snakes supposed to poison arthur ⟶ merlin exposes the snakes and arthur kills them
• 1x04: poisoned cup ⟶ merlin drinks from it instead
• 1x05: a griffin attacks them ⟶ lancelot fights it, and merlin enchants his sword/spear so that it’ll work
• 1x07: arthur is to be sacrificed to the sidhe ⟶ merlin saves him
• 1x10: ealdor gets attacked, including arthur, and they’re doomed ⟶ merlin creates a huge wind gust to save everyone
• 1x13: questing beast attacks arthur ⟶ merlin kills it
• 1x13: questing beast bites arthur, the poison is fatal ⟶ merlin gets water from the cup of life to save him
• 2x01: arthur gets attacked by a huge boar (?) ⟶ merlin uses magic on a crossbow to save him
• 2x01: camelot gets attack by living stone statues ⟶ merlin destroys them
• 2x02: assassin tries to kill arthur during a tournament on horses ⟶ merlin uses magic to make the assassin fall off his horse
• 2x12: dead stone statue thingies attack arthur and his knights ⟶ merlin uses magic to make the ceiling cave in and pulls arthur to his side, separating them from the statue thingies
• 2x13: arthur's wounds are getting worse ⟶ merlin finds balinor in time and has him help him (HONORARY MENTION)
• 3x04: arthur gets attacked (again) ⟶ merlin uses magic to save him (again)
• 3x07: morgause tries to kill arthur with a fire beam ⟶ merlin uses magic to make the fire beam explode before it reaches arthur
• 3x08: arthur gets attacked by wyverns ⟶ merlin uses his dragonlordness to stop them
• 3x08: arthur wears the eye of the phoenix bracelet (sucking life-force out of someone) ⟶ merlin takes it off him
• 3x12: arthur gets shot by a poisoned arrow ⟶ merlin uses magic to help him, then brings him to gaius
• 3x13: an army of immortal deads attacks camelot ⟶ merlin empties the cup of life of their blood to “kill” them all
• 4x01: dorochas attack arthur ⟶ merlin pushes arthur out of the way to get attacked instead
• 4x04: their food gets poisoned ⟶ merlin uses magic to save them
• 4x05: arthur fights in a duel and is about to be striked down ⟶ merlin makes the opponent’s sword fall out of his hands with magic
• 5x01: arthur and their men get attacked by morgana’s men ⟶ merlin saves arthur and gets them away from the battle
• 5x04: arthur almost got beheaded by odin ⟶ merlin created an earthquake with magic to stop that
• 5x06: dark tower traps ⟶ merlin parries an arrow with magic
• 5x07: arthur gets poisoned ⟶ merlin saves him with magic
• 5x08: someone wants to shoot an arrow at arthur ⟶ merlin attacks the shooter and saves arthur
• 5x11: kara tried to stab arthur ⟶ merlin uses magic to save him
and the one time he fails: 5x13, mordred stabs arthur with a sword forged on a dragon’s breath — merlin doesn’t get him to avalon in time
which brings us to a total of 27.5 times that merlin has saved arthur's life throughout the show
we also kept track of all the times arthur saved merlin's life, so here is that list:
• 1x03: merlin tells uther he is a sorcerer to save gwen (which would’ve gotten him a death sentence) ⟶ arthur convinces his father that merlin is lying out of love for gwen
• 1x04: merlin drank from a poisoned cup ⟶ arthur gets the antidote for him
• 1x11: arthur drinks poison so that merlin won’t have to ⟶ it was actually a sleeping draft though (HONORARY MENTION)
• 1x13: questing beast attacks ⟶ arthur pulled merlin out of the way
• 2x12: dead stone statue thingy attacks merlin ⟶ arthur strikes it down
• 4x01: a dorocha flies towards merlin ⟶ arthur pushes him out of the way
• 4x08: the lamia was about to kill merlin ⟶ arthur comes in at just the right time
which brings us to a total of 6.5 times that arthur saved merlin's life
it's kind of crazy to me to compare it like this, because on the one hand 27 near-death experiences across 65 episodes doesn't really sound like a lot. but at the same time i can't believe that arthur would have died 27 times if it hadn't been for merlin. and to think that arthur only saved merlin's life 6 times though?? oof
on my next rewatch, my sister and i want to make a list of all the moments that contributed to arthur's death (a so-called "doom list" with moments like merlin poisoning morgana in 2x13 etc), but that one is definitely going to be more subjective, since it'll be based on things that we think could've prevented arthur's death if they had gone any different
very excited to debate all the things that could go on that one!
#bbc merlin#merlin spoilers#arthur pendragon#merlin emrys#haven't seen anyone else make a list like this before but if you know one i'd love to see it and compare it to mine!#2x13 makes me want to cry#5x05 as well#2x08 as well bc i do think merlin saying morgause lied about ygraine's death could be considered a doom moment#but this post isn't about that!#i'll shut up now

I just love Merlin loving magic, those moments are the best ones for me. The dragon out of fire, the butterflies, the horse out of smoke, the flying lights...it's just so Merlin, and it makes your heart ache how badly he just wants to make pretty things
It's so great to see how happy magic makes him, and how badly he wants Arthur to feel that too (and not only Arthur)
It's what's so good about his character, he stays optimistic and good, despite all this hate and murder. Even in season 5, yes. The fact that when he gets his magic back he could do whatever he wants, and he chooses to create butterflies
This particular scene makes me sad. Look at him
Merlin doesn’t have a whole lot of opportunity to use his magic for fun really, you can see how badly Merlin wants to be free. It's something tragically beautiful.

Uther’s death:
Merlin fights for his life as he battles hundreds of the undead with only one thing in his mind: Arthur is going to die. Knocking the last soldier away. He rams the door open.
Morgause sat on the throne with Arthur under her heels, bloody and bruised. On the other side of the floor, Uther lays unconscious. Merlin runs to her but immediately collided into nothing. There’s an invisible wall separating them.
Arthur: …merlin…
Morgause: Oh great, you’re here
Merlin: GIVE HIM BACK!!
Merlin tries to break the barrier with the sword he’s carrying, but it’s futile. Merlin tries to hit it again with higher force but the sword snaps in half.
Morgause: You can’t break it, not unless I die. It’s useless.
Morgause pulls the ends of Arthur’s hair and rest her sword on his throat
Morgause: Here’s what’s going to happen Emrys. Either you kill that tyrant- (tilts her head towards uther) or your prince dies
Arthur: Don’t do it! MERLIN DON’T DO IT!!! Damn you! Let me die for him-
Morgause: You don’t get to decide that (presses her sword)
Arthur and Morgause stares at Merlin in silence. Merlin doesn’t know what to do.
Morgause: well?? Hurry up!!
Arthur: NO! Don’t you DARE DO ANYTHING!!
Merlin: I…let him go morgause…
Morgause: Not unless you kill him
Merlin stays still. Not knowing what to do. Morgause grew impatient.
Morgause: Fine then, you think I’m not serious?
With quick reflexes Morgause stabs Arthur’s stomach, Arthur howled with pain, gripping his wound. Merlin felt like his heart just stopped.
Morgause: the next one is through his heart (forces arthur to look at merlin) well???
Merlin bit his lip. Stading still. Morgause tsked, and plunged her sword at Arthur’s heart
Merlin: NO WAIT!
Morgause stops
Morgause: Yes?
Merlin took a deep breath and picked up his broken sword, he started walking torwards uther.
Arthur: Merlin…? Merlin? MERLIN! MERLIN STOP!!
Merlin stops at Uther’s unconscious body.
Morgause: Wait!
Merlin looks at her with a questioning glance.
Morgause: Do it with magic
Merlin: …what??
Morgause: I want you to kill him with your magic
Arthur: are you insane…? Merlin doesn’t practice magic!
Morgause waits for him but Merlin didn’t do anything.
Morgause: do you want him to die?
Merlin: i don’t have magic.
Morgause: oh stop pretending emrys
Merlin: isn’t…isn’t killing him enough?
Arthur: ARE YOU INSANE?? Merlin if you kill my father I’M GOING TO KILL YOU!
Merlin: …why are you doing this?
Morgause: kill him now.
Arthur: merlin! Don’t listen to her! Please!!
Merlin: i…i don’t…i don’t have magic…
Morgause: liar! Do what you’re meant to do! Kill Uther Pendragon! What are you so afraid of? Magic will thrive again!! You can stop hiding who you are….or if you’re a coward…things will stay the same…with the loss of your prince.
Arthur: Merlin…if you kill him, i’ll never forgive you.
Merlin looks towards at the floor looking deep in thought. Just as Morgause got tired of waiting, Merlin’s eyes suddenly glows gold and Uther’s body levitated on the air. Arthur was stunned, shocked at the display.
Merlin: I’m sorry…Arthur, but between you and everything. I will always choose you.
A resounding crack echoes throughout the room, and Uther’s body lay motionless. Dead.
Arthur: no…
Morgause smiles, pleased.
Morgause: good choice
She undid the barrier and throws Arthur across the room. She disappears to thin air.
With a bleeding abdomen, Arthur forces himself to go to Uther’s side. Merlin tries to tend him but Arthur weakly shoves him away.
Arthur: get away from me…
Merlin: i need to heal you
Arthur: i don’t want to be healed by a traitor!
Merlin: You’re in critical condition!
Arthur: I DON’T CARE!! GET AWAY FROM ME!!
Arthur struggles against Merlin’s hold before passing out.
