But What If Merleon

All this and only one

All I can say is

For everyone who bought this! You better get comfortable. This gonna take a long time.

But seriously, how is anyone not getting angry? I can not stress this enough to everyone who bought this. You all have the patience of a saint.

Like, what do they mean? "The design is still being worked." Like brother, the design should've been finished 11 months ago!

I swear they pull excuses out of the trash because what?

You know what weird is it angel birthday sure? But it also molly birthday..his twin sister

Wait you so right!

I completely forgot about it being Molly's birthday, too! Honestly, now that I think about it, Viv and the fandom never really talk about her.

I get she not known character, but you think the creator would celebrate both characters on their birthday.

(Unless, of course, Viv decided to change Angel and Molly from being twins to being just siblings)

Merlin starts useless arguments just to rile Arthur up

He’s totally on the “sharks are smooth” kinda vibe and Arthur is pulling out his hair screaming “no they’re not!!” and merlin just replies yes they are :D

**********

“Wyverns are smooth”

“I’m an experienced hunter and killer, and I’m telling you Merlin, that they are scaly and rough.”

“Nope, they’re smooth”

“Shut up Merlin”

“I can’t hear you over the sounds of me petting this smooth wyvern”

“As If you have you ever petted one, Ha!”

“Oh I’ve petted many wyverns in my life, in fact sire, I keep one under my bed and pet it every night”

“Gods but you’re impossible! As if a wyvern would fit under your bed, idiot! They grow to be twice the size of Percival!”

“Well of course it’s not a grown wyvern, he’s small and very smooth”

“They are not smooth!!”

“Yes they are :D”

******

They argue like this in front of everyone else

The envy Arthur and Lancelot would have had for each other must have been insane.

Because Merlin is secretive with Lancelot. He tells him things he would never tell Arthur, he opens up to him and Arthur knows he can never have that trust. Never have that closeness not while he’s king and Merlin a servant.

But to Lancelot he’s been secretive about protecting Arthur. It all resolves around Arthur, opening up about protecting Arthur, giggling over using magic to please Arthur. Lancelot knows it will never be him on the other side of the devotion not like this.

just like he will never be Gwen’s because she loved him once yes but at the end of the day it’s Arthur she chooses.

and in Arthur’s eyes Lancelot is Gwen’s first love will always be known as such and will always be looked at as such even if she loves him she loved Lancelot first and Arthur can’t help but think if she could have him she would.

Anyway I’m so sane about them and at the end of the day how they still understand why it’s like this because they would choose the other as well.

while revising some of my ocs, i realized how odd it is that everyone in the hellverse either speaks english or has it as a secondary language. putting aside the reality of hazbin/helluva being tv shows produced in america by americans, there should be a LOT more characters who primarily speak a language other than english or use outdated english (and no zestial doesn't count the mf was in like one episode). i also want to see more bilingual characters that aren't spanish. where are the french-americans. where are the russian-americans. it can not be hard to find voice actors who speak a language other than english and spanish.

They could only stare in horror as the creature bites through the knights. Merlin could faintly hear screaming and then pain.  

“Retreated.” Sir Leon’s voice broke through the clearing, forcing the few knights that were left into action, grabbing Arthur’s wrist as he pulled him away from there. He forced them to move even though Arthur was almost dead weight.

Trying to pull away, trying to get back to the creature. It needed to be slain before any more people died. Merlin needed to be avenged. He needed to know that his death wasn’t in vain. He died protecting his family, and that is enough.

“Arthur, we need to rethink this. We are not winning; we can come back when we have a plan, and then we can handle it.” Leon’s voice barely broke through the fog, clouding Arthur’s mind.

Suddenly, there was just silence as they stopped in the forest about a kilometre away from the creature. There was a look of horror as the knights placed their hands on Arthur’s shoulder, giving him some comfort.

All of them knew what the relationship was between master and servant. Even when they tried to hide it away, it was clear as day.

All Arthur could do was sit there, his body barely able to move. He glanced upwards, his eyes desperate as he tried to keep his face calm. But from the knight’s eyes, he could see that it wasn’t working.

Leon sighed slightly as he sat down next to Arthur, gently pulling him against his chest, the older knight sent the other away with a glare.

“It is my fault, Leon, I should have insisted that he stay in Camelot. He doesn’t belong out here with us. And the newbies, we should have known.” Arthur's breath hitched as he tried to gather his thoughts.

“Merlin would have just followed us; you know that as well as I do. And unfortunately, we needed to have as many hands-on decks as possible. We didn’t know it would be this bad, Arthur.” Leon tried to give him some comfort.

A sudden blast made them all freeze as a shock wave sent them to the ground.

Arthur forced himself to his feet, hand on his sword, as he rushed back to where the blast came from. As if someone forced himself forward, he came to a halt in the clearing.

The creature on the ground, Merlin, slumped against a tree, blood dripping from his head, an arm cradled against his chest.

“Merlin.” Arthur rushed over to the manservant. Crouching down, he gently moved the soaked hair out of his eyes. He wanted to ask how, instead, Merlin slumped forward against his chest. “Safe.  You all are safe.” His voice slurred, whether, from the head injury or magical exhaustion, Arthur couldn’t say.

His hands trembled as he picked him up. “Go to sleep; I have you.” He whispered the words as he glanced at Leon.

Knowing that between them, they would keep Merlin safe. There is no other choice.

Arthur holds an intervention for Merlin and his visits to the tavern. All of the knights are there. So is Gaius, who shrugs apologetically. Lancelot and Gwaine refuse to participate for different reasons though they’re both in attendance. Leon goes off on a tangent about how he understands why Merlin drinks.

I just realized stolas can remember blitz name and who was to him even though it probably been 20-30 years since they last saw each other.

But he can't remember a simple promise he made to his daughter, probably 10 years back?
