“you just find gay subtext in everything” no the fuck i dont the gay subtext was presented to me on an ornate silver platter
Merlin (talking about gay marriage): “it’s legal now”
Arthur (thinking he means sorcery)
*cue a bunch of hilarious miscommunications*
do you guys think merlin and arthur knows its legal now
y’all weren’t lying when you said this fic was god-tier, i am HOOKED
was completely unprepared for this military fic to have a whole fake dating plotline… absolutely screaming and kicking my feet rn this is the best
celebrating the season by reading Loaded March for the very first time, wish me luck
i do think merlin and arthur had the perfect dynamic. an episode would end with arthur being like merlin you're my closest friend and confidante and the greatest man i've ever met. and merlin would be like i'd kill and die for you we are two sides of the same coin. and then you'd start the next episode and it would begin with arthur smacking merlin upside the head and calling him an ugly peasant and merlin calling arthur a fat idiot.
arthur yearndragon u hurt me so bad
can you imagine the collective rage we would all feel if the BBC decided to finally make Merlin season 6 where Arthur returns… but then they decided to give Arthur a brand new female love interest?!?
it seems like the kinda shit they would pull, those cowards, and i just know the fandom would be absolutely livid
they’re so in love
happy valentine’s 💞
thinking about all the times Merlin had to go through something deeply traumatic and Arthur had no idea, and Merlin just had to laugh it off and make up a lie
I YEARN for more scenes where Arthur actually notices something's wrong and tries to comfort Merlin (even if he doesn't know the full truth)
Like, I just watched S2E09 and this scene at the end:
Arthur: something's been upsetting you, hasn't it?
and then he tries to cheer him up, and smiles at him like this:
I just need more of this! soft arthur comforting sad merlin
WAIT THE THIRD CLIP??? WHERE HES MANHANDLING HIM INTO AN ALCOVE?? LOOKS LIKE THEY’RE SNEAKING OFF TO DESPERATELY MAKE OUT WITH EACH OTHER
They’re boyfriends here. My edit. I make the rules. They’re dating.
Rewatching Merlin S1E2, when Merlin is dressing Arthur for his duel and just generally being incompetent because it's like his first day on the job, but imagine:
Merlin: *hands Arthur his helment* great, yeah, I think you’re all set
Arthur: Aren’t you forgetting something?
Merlin: *frowns*
Merlin: Oh, right
Merlin: *kisses Arthur*
Arthur: *turning red* No, you idiot! My sword!
