I don't fucking understand why didn't Merlin or gaius tell Arthur about the pendant like couldn't gaius go

" oh sire we found this pendant around the King's neck and it has transforming magic on it so every healing spell is reversed so it's not the old man's fault "

Like is that so hard to do AUUGGHHHHHHHHHHH

so I saw one interesting comic about a podcast and accidentally have been binging it for nearly a week straight, it had me thinking of nothing else within 30 seconds of episode 1, Love this poor sad dishrag of a man and his poetry loving passenger <3

Mordred: Merlin, could you pass the salt?

Merlin: Could you pass away?

Arthur (to a horrified court): This is normal

[rdr2gifs]

Oh and this is the context for this post,

-------------------------------------------------------

Merlin explaining the great purge and the banning of magic to the twins so that they don't out him to Arthur after Dipper and Mabel find out that he is a sorcerer.

Dipper looked up from his notes and shared a glance with his sister, who also seemed to feel the same, "Wow, that's messed up man." He knew magic could be controversial in the medieval times, he didn't it was this bad. No wonder he didn't want Arthur to find out.

Merlin gave a quiet nod and sighed. When the twins stumbled upon him using magic he was terrified. He thought he was done for right there and then. Thankfully the twins took it rather well. On the bright side he got to share his secret with someone else other than Gaius and Lancelot...even if they were only 12.

Mabel slammed her hands on the table, startling the remaining two occupants and declared loudly "I-" before lowering her voice at her brother's and Merlins insistence, "Ahem, I won't stand for this. You two deserve to be closer and I, Mabel pines, promise to fix this blasphemy!"

"I don't-" Merlin spoke before being interrupted as Mabel pulled him close,

"Shh...Don't worry. You've got the power of Mabel on your side!" Mabel whispered before running off, leaving Merlin dumbfounded.

"...What is your sister going to do?" Merlin asked nervously not getting a verbal response from Dipper.

Dipper got off the chair and led Merlin to the living room, both peeking at Arthur who was entranced by the television in front of him.

"Heyo!" Mabel shouted appearing out of seemingly nowhere, scaring Arthur,

"Aahhh!...oh. It's you." Arthur screamed before calming down.

"Sorry to scare you-"

"I wasn't scared-"

"But a little birdie told me you hate magic!"

"...and why wouldn't I, Mabel?" Arthur decided to humor her.

"Because it's so magical!" Mabel said spreading her hands out and glitter everywhere.

"Uh-huh." Arthur replied, removing the glitter off him.

"And that's why we're going watch every Disney movie in existence, well except sword in the stone,"

"I didn’t quite hear that part "

"-while we do your hair and nails until you realise your Dad's opinion is totally wrong." Mabel spoke and started preparing her supplies while Arthur just looked very confused.

Merlin and Dipper watched from the sidelines, with Merlin going through thousands of emotions at once as Dipper comforted Merlin, "There, there."

"...what is even going on here?" Arthur started regaining his bearings and turned around finding Merlin and Dipper in the corner, watching, "Merlin? Dipper, what is your sister doing? Wait, where are you going? Merlin, Dipper I swear if I-wait stop! Don't leave me here!"

Merlin and Dipper slipped away leaving Arthur alone. With Mabel. Arthur felt a hand on his shoulder as slowly turned around to find it's owner, "So, what's your favorite colour?~"

I don't know Arthur's personality but in his shoes I would be both worried and feel guilty that my girlfriend is probably dead because of my getting her in the Study Dangerous Monsters business

Based on his post-credits voice message at the end of episode one, we feel like he’s probably Going Through It regarding every aspect of the Studying Dangerous Monsters business right now.

[emrys-merlin]

Leon's pep talk to Gwen in the episode 5x07 it's hilarious. Arthur is right there on the bed and not even dead and Leon is already throwing sweet words to Gwen of becoming a great queen or whatever? DUDE 😂

[arthur-lesters-pinky-finger]

Ok but if Arthur literally died on episode THREE of the new season I am incredibly scared to see how things will escalate from here 😟

[cold-red-venom]

Okay, I'm definitely just dumb and probably not far enough into the game to have known but i was just looking up Arthur cuz i wanted to see how tall he is, but Arthur had a SON?????? omfg and he would visit him and his mom every once in a while and then one time came back to them both having been SHOT DEAD??? OVER 10 FUCKING BUCKS????? I've found out in the worst way possible

[ambriel-angstwitch]

Merlin, on the phone with Arthur: turn around

Merlin: no the other way

Merlin: no wait now the other way

Merlin: okay one more time

Arthur: OH MY GOODNESS WHERE ARE YOU?!?!

Merlin: oh i'm not there yet but the thought of you aimlessly turning around in circles amuses me

[thebitchesterbrothers]

I’m currently rewatching Merlin and every time Gwaine appears with his charming smile and his fluffy hair I have to think of Hob Gadling.

Maybe in some other universe Gwaine is one of Hobs sons? Maybe they’re brothers and got their glorious hair from their mom?

Anyway… Can you imagine the trouble these two would inevitably cause?!

[tommyshelbysrighthand]

I feel like Arthur would cope better if he had a kitty cat
