Short: You're A Lord, Merlin!

*after a pendragon family dinner*

Merlin: Ugh, this family makes me want to murder people.

Arthur: You are not part of it??

Merlin: Still.

(And he does)

I really wished Leon and Merlin interacted more

This isn’t even really just because i ship Merleon, they just would’ve made a really good duo.

The few interactions we have with them show that they do get along very well.

We see leon seen ruffling Merlin’s hair and even joke around with him. He fully trusts Merlin and doesn’t think of him to do anything wrong.

I feel like the cup of life or maybe even Kilharrahs attack would’ve been good points for them to get closer, it would’ve given them something to connect on (mainly on Merlin’s end, unless he were to reveal his magic and all that) or at least something to talk about.

Their relationship has changed from when they first met to there last few interactions.

After the “Lamia” episode we should’ve seen some type of acknowledgement of what Leon and the others did because Leon did physically hurt Merlin, even if it was under a spell.

Leon shoving Merlin around did seem like a parallel to when he did it in “the sins of the father” but the difference was that back then he did it on his own accord.

Leon has obviously changed since then, and Merlin knows that, so it hurt him more to see him revert back to that.

To whoever first wrote that Merlin is only clumsy because he has to make a conscious effort and always invest a lot of energy to not allowing his magic to be instinctive : Thank you! That concept always lives in my mind for free

.....honestly, I'm not even surprised 😑

I hope to lord almighty and divine power on earth that vizzie does not touch mythology. Especially Greek myths. I can picture what she would do to Hades. A skinny pastey twink with long black hair. 🤢

God, me neither, I can imagine all the ways she would mess with greek mythology.

Honestly, I genuinely wonder now how she would handle Zeus and his cheating. Would he be the bad guy, or would he be given a reason to justify his cheating.

Do you have any fics where they watch Merlin? Thanks.

Here’s what we’ve got for you:

Time Travel and TV

Growth in Magic (WIP)

Who You Really Are (just Arthur watching)

Life Outside the Shadows 

Different Eyes (WIP)

The Past is Key (WIP)

There’s a community with fics but most are WIPs.

The general idea of this story was that Merlin came of age and as a tradition of his kingdom at that age, all the rulers of neighboring countries would send their prince/princess to ask for the hand of Merlin. Because the rulers of the kingdom of Merlin are dragonlords and sorcerers, and therefore the neighboring countries want this alliance.

Since the kingdom of Camelot is against magic, nobody expected Prince Arthur to show up, but he did.

Alone.

Balinor is suspicious, Hunith is supportive, and Merlin doesn’t want to marry.

Chaos begins. 😂

This was supposed to be for an event but the writer dropped out so I’ll post it like this 😌

My other Merlin art

Warning, there will be talks of spoilers of season 2 because I will be mentioning the leaks:

Every time viv says something is going to be the greatest thing she ever made or loves, it ends up being... how to put it lightly... really, REALLY rushed or bad.

Like I'm seeing the different ways on how the season will be rushed. Due to the leaks, we know that Alastor will be kidnapped by Vox at some point, so I totally see Viv and the writers rushing to get to that plot faster.

So the less interesting plot points are left in the dust until Viv and the writers remember about it and quickly have to include it in some way.

NO!?!? BECAUSE THAT IS A INSANE TAKE!??!

She is a child, and stolas is an adult who has made his bed and has to deal with the consequences of said choices

(Even though I admit octavia, fears of abandonment have been shown and resolved way too many times. I blame the show writing for not giving her more to do other than being a plot device)

It has been proven time and time again that octavia is not the most confident in believing stolas won't abandoned her and run off with blitz

And what does stolas do with his actions without hesitating to prove his daughter wrong and he will never leave... abandoned her and left to save blitz life

Then, once he begins his new life with blitz, he forgets about her until the mention of rats got him to remember to call her.

(Honestly, I was confused later on when stella was like, "he trying to call all month." So, like, did stolas forget about via only that day or week? The timeline is very confusing.)

Once again, proving his fantasies with blitz are more important than octavia.

A good father would be doing everything he could to make sure he gets his daughter back as fast as possible. Especially if his daughter is in the custody of two people who try to kill him.

He would be getting a lawyer, trying to get court to rehear everything out, and of course, try to get his daughter forgiveness even if it takes years to rebuild.

But stolas does nothing but cry because he poor the entire episode...

it’s a TRAGEDY that we never got acknowledgement of gwaine knowing about merlin’s magic, but it’s ALSO a tragedy that we never got gwaine nOT knowing about merlin’s magic but still being a ride or die anyway with ZERO explanation needed to fully commit to whatever lie the situation called for

merlin, limping up, covered in blood, still holding a knife: “listen, if anyone asks, i need you to say that i was with you last ni-” 

gwaine: “we fucked last night until dawn, got it” 

“n-no, you can just say we w-” 

“it was tender but passionate, and you said thank you at the end”
