#there is no way arthur can't know

[pbaintthetb]

back on the Merlin train- S5 Mordred for a moment like oh lord S5 Mordred I wish i could get in your head and see what’s there in your brains, rn I think I’d rather do that to you than main blorbo (if only cos im scared of his head)

like Mordred jfc

just, does arthur know does he think arthur knows has arthur forgotten

Merlin- not even touching their last S2 encounter when Merlin flat out attempts to murder child Mordred, when child mordred has this mythical figure who is supposed to be his salvation try to kill him for no reason he will ever discover

(and like Mordred is on the outs with druids by s5 right? my personal hc is this is why...)

and also, Emrys, just this rando guy, pretending to be weak,. Arthur and the knights bully him and Merlin goes along with it and Merlin is the most powerful person Mordred has ever met

Idk takes bullying the dragon to a new level, and obvs merlin wouldn’t turn on them but S5 Mordred is hated by who he considers not only to be the most powerful man, but a mythic figure and

jeez louise S5 mordred, what is your life

Whenever Arthur talks badly about himself in the mirror I always think about this one picture

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 ☺️

i know there are only like five of us but i feel like garth stans really don't talk enough about how left out he feels with the titans. dick and wally are Best Friends. donna and roy are on and off again. dick and donna are too much to explain. on average, roy is close with at least one of dick's siblings. dick donna and wally all go on to be in the new teen titans. garth isn't Close with any other titans but the originals

and it's this thing where,,, it's not his Fault yknow? he's not mean or spiteful or creepy or anything that would warrant them not liking him as much. he joins in on their jokes, he risks his life, he shares his feelings, he does everything that he knows friends do. but just the virtue of him being atlantean and them being land dwellers ruins everything. he Can't spend more time with them, he doesn't understand their culture, he will always choose atlantis.

they'll always be his friends but he can never truly be with them or form deeper bonds. he'll always be the last one to know what's going on, the last one they call, a complete shadow and afterthought.

and sure there's a part of him that knows this, that feels bitter and lonely. but he can't even be that mad at them because he does the same thing. the titans are never his first thought, he never calls them first, he doesn't reach out and ask if they're okay, they're always the last ones to know what happened to him. the titans are such a huge part of his life but they're barely in it.

there's just something so inherently lonely about garth that i feel most dc writers don't understand. they just don't get it. they don't get what it's like for this boy who was all alone, never had parents or a family, suddenly being taken in and having to act like he knows how to be a son, a friend, a partner. meeting kids his own age and wanting to bond with them so bad, having to watch as they all get closer to each other and leave him behind, not being able to do anything about it. never being taken seriously, always the last choice... garth man.....

i keep telling all my mutuals that I'll watch merlin at some point but I genuinely think that'll ruin my experience nothing is funnier than hearing about all that bullshit secondhand

[lucifer-kane]

hey i don't mind that you reposted the screenshots at all i think it's entirely fair to do so but. can you please not link the tweets to people on this site? because idk if there are assholes lurking in the fandom space who know me on both accounts or if they're from outside and just want to troll but ive gotten hate anons about it already, one of which was. Violently arophobic, which i assume comes from me mentioning being aro in a tweet. ive turned off anons and im really sorry about this whole thing but i don't want to give people easier access to my twt account than they already have if possible.

-2nd person in the tweets

I can respect this 100%. (I want to say that anyone who's said they've seen the posts on twitter, I haven't sent the link to anyone and will continue to not, so they've found the post themselves) I just don't also like the things I've seen you said (on twitter) because they're blatantly untrue. Sure, you may have seen people say something or another about being upset that the ship isn't real or what fucking ever, but majority of the time, the criticism of Malev comes from a place of genuine critique.

Maybe I'm coming at this from a personal perspective of people talking about the wrong shit and refusing to criticize a creator they like, because this is very much a second happening of this, albeit, a different person. But VERY similar paths for both certain parts of fans (not wanting people to crit his show and saying there's something wrong with people doing this and you getting the facts wrong) going to bat for the creator (who SHOULD be listening to well informed and constructive CRITIQUES, which has been the MAJORITY of the criticism for YEARS)

His father's Son, 4.05

this scene is so satisfying to watch idk why... Annis, who has never known the type of person Arthur is, thinks it's a trick.

Meanwhile Morgana, even though she's fighting against him, for her it's hard to comprehend why Annis thinks it's such a big deal or it's trick.

Morgana's "cause he's Arthur" Punch you directly in the gut! She sees nothing amiss, for that's how it is. Any person who knows Arthur, they should know how he is, it's such a easy thing.

He won't risk life of his men, he's Arthur and therefore it's no trick!

[awkwardplant]

i have a theory that Kayne shapeshifts into the "nice" creatures Arthur comes across bc he always seems to come into some sort of trouble after interacting with them. to guide him and keep an eye on him. when he followed a floating salamander he fell down a hole with a monster. the ladder was making noises when the owl/Alexander was on it so it could've been Kayne messing with it so it'd break and force Arthur into the tunnel

Every time I hear a story about someone being horrified by "pox parties" I have to remember oh yeah they make a chicken pox vaccination now, don't they? Because when I was a kid that thing was brand new, and some older habits were still in place. Since it was safest to get chicken pox when you were elementary school aged, if one kid had it, pretty soon the whole school would. And most of the time it wasn't an accident - best get it done when it's safe rather than risk stuff like infertility in your 20s and beyond

so....i watched Disney Channel original movie Avalon High

[nerdyfangirlingbooks]

I've had a stupid merlin au idea stuck in my head for days now and I know I'll never get around to writing it the way I want it written but I kinda wanna try anyway even though I am 100% of the target audience

[yoonnamjin25]

Ok but I need a post canon, Arthur returns, slow burn, Merthur, kind of fic where we can acompany our beloved king through the different stages of grief he will go through when Merlin tells him he's been dead for over 1500 years so he lost his kingdom, knights, friends and wife. A fic where we can see Merlin introducing Arthur to the 21st century and its technology that he insists is just magic, Mer-lin, I know it, I'm no fool. I know magic when I see it. A fic where we can see Arthur still struggling to fully trust on Merlin again because yes, he forgave him and he doesn't really care about the magic (except he does because Merlin's eyes look so beautiful when they are gold and where did that come from, Arthur Pendragon? Merlin, beautiful? Ha! The clotpole must've been right when he told you you shouldn't drink a third cup of that dark, strong, addictive beverage) but he still can't get over all the years of constant lies and deceiving, and Merlin feels guilty af so he tries to win his trust once again day by day and keep the promise he made to himself that day he finally confessed his magic to Arthur to not lie to him ever again. A fic full of fluffy moments between merthur where we can see them fall for each other harder slowly but surely until one day, after 3 or 4 months since Arthur came back, he finally kisses Merlin. And then they kiss some more. And more. And they are so happy grinning like idiots between kisses because finally they are on the same page. And everything is perfect. And Arthur suddenly loses his shirt somehow and things are getting heated although everything is still so soft and sweet and tentative. And then the doorbell rings. They ignore it at first, Arthur's orders, but the person behind the door is insistent so they have to stop so Merlin can go and see who it is. And when he finally opens the door, his jaw almost hit the floor because the person in front of him is no other than the fucking Queen of Camelot, his first and beloved friend, Guinevere Pendragon, the long ago dead widow of Arthur Pendragon, king of Camelot, whom he's been making out with seconds ago. And then everything goes downhill coz Gwen sees her husband and Arthur is so shocked to see her again and then they are hugging and smiling and kissing and glowing with happiness and then there's Merlin, with tears in his eyes as he sees them reunite again. As he sees Arthur reunited with his true love. And when the king finally takes a moment to process everything that is happening while having Guinevere laughing crying in his arms, his eyes find Merlin, his Merlin, the one he had in his arms minutes ago and everything comes crashing. Reality hits him so hard he can't even breathe for a second. Because he was happy with Merlin and even though he hadn't yet admitted it out loud, he knew, deep in his soul, that he was in love with him, but then Guinevere is back! His beautiful, amazing, sweet and wonderful queen who he loves with all his heart is back from the death and how is that even possible???

Phew! A fic full of drama and angst and hurt/comfort and tough decisions that Arthur will have to make eventually because he loves them both, but he only can have one and that is breaking him apart because he is a righteous man at heart and he knows that as a married man, his choice should be clear as water, but his soul is screaming at him because it wants something else, someone else, and he doesn't know what to do as he knows whatever he decides, one of the two people he loves the most in his life will end up brokenhearted. But life is unfair and cruel to everyone. Even to legendary kings.

So.

Can someone please write it?

For me???

Pretty please???
