Morgana curses Arthur to become an animal (vermin to be precise).
He is now a mouse, small, universally disgusted, and easily killable by animals and other humans. Arthur had to navigate back from Morganas hut in the forest and find his way back to his castle and to Gaius.
He knows he could be eaten by a cat or an owl, be killed by the servants who spot him in the corridors, or get lost in the now very big Camelot. It takes him a whole two days to make his way back to the citadel
Morganas plan was genius one. He was invisible and helpless. He could be killed and no one would know or realise that they had killed their king while chasing a little forest mouse.
His journey takes him inside the castle, and while he’s roaming the corridors as a small mouse when he spots Merlin.
Merlin!
As he runs up to Merlin the idiot lights up. “Hello little one :D”
He bends down and scoops Arthur up into his (surprisingly large hands).
“Oh aren’t you just a sweet little thing? Don’t worry, I won’t tell cook I found you down here. You can stay in my pocket while I tidy the kings chambers”
Arthur knew that his friend had a soft spot for all animals, but really this was taking it a step too far. Allowing some random mouse he found crawling around the floor to accompany him into The Kings Private Chambers? Just so he could have some company while he tidies? What a dollophead.
Although…in this specific scenario…he supposed he could make an exception. Just this once. And as soon as he transforms back into his human self he will be having words with his servant about this absolutely ridiculous behaviour.
But for now Arhrur is safe in his silly manservant’s pocket. Silly, lovable Merlin, who just picked up a little mouse and decided to take it with him for the day because he was bored.
He stays curled up in Merlin’s neckerchief
(And he’s so totally normal about being this close to Merlin’s strong neck and chest. If he wasn’t cursed as a mouse he would be so normal about this)
It’s much later in the evening, while him and Merlin eat off of the Kings dinner plate (again, he will be having words about this), when the warning bell sounds.
The King is Missing!

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.
Consort Merlin: [glaring]
King Arthur: Merlin it was an innocent kiss on the cheek
Consort Merlin: [glaring harder]
King Arthur: [sighing] Sweetheart, please come here [opens arms wide in invitation]
Merlin slowly comes closer as Arthur's arms surround him in a tight hug, tiny kisses on his cheeks and forehead and lastly on his pouting lips which only made his King chuckle
Consort Merlin: [still pouting] You're still not forgiven
King Arthur: [feeling smug] Of course my amazingly wonderful warlock—
Consort Merlin: [rolling eyes in fondness]
10 months? Yet no playbills in sight
Yeah, to everyone who bought playbills, I don't think you will ever get it.
I mean, you might get it? But like in a year type situation. Where are you going through your mail and boom! Your playbill is here! And you completely forgot you got that.
That is what happened to me, but instead of playbill, it was a pin from Etsy.
(Honestly, you all are saints for this type of patience)
Rough au idea:
Reader grew up with her mother and stepfather until the age of 9. Both of them had been laid off and couldn't afford to take care of reader.
So, her mother contacted reader bio father, bruce wanye
Reader mother explained the situation to bruce. And promise reader as soon as she and stepfather can find work + money. Reader would come back and live with them.
But that never happened....
Reader arrived 5 months after Jason death, even though his death was old, the shadow he left behind was fresh.
Reader was shown around the mansion by Alfred. Later that night, reader met bruce before he disappeared for an emergency.
As years went, reader was treated as a ghost in their own home..
It not really their home, is it?
Unlike at home, at school wherever they went during school hours, they were mistreated, bullied, and tortured every single day. Treated as a little bug who doesn't deserve anything
It doesn't help bruce, and the batfam is always busy. Never helped reader whenever they tried to call out for help they were ignored by loved ones who were supposed to help them.
Maybe if one person actually stopped and actually gave the emotional/physical love and comfort reader wanted, everything would have been different.
The accident wouldn't have happened
After, some time of constant nothing but pain, and sadness that really takes a toll on your mental health.
School got involved quickly after reader begins to talk to the counselor. The school decided to call cps. Soon, cps decided it was not safe for you to return to your mom house or stay with the batfam.
So, after talking to your new case worker, you were able to leave the batfam. And you put into a new foster family.
Honestly, under your new foster family influence, you were truly a different person! You were a bird taking flight, and nothing could stop you!
It really sucks after a certain night their family started to clip their wings

*i screamed as the others dragged me back into my room*
they are just shy.
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
I have another thing to conference
Everything I have learned about the Hazbin Hotel characters either comes from the wiki or the fandom.
Seriously, I don't like how you have to do homework to understand the characters' background. And I don't get the, "you have to watch the livestreams to understand!"
Look, I should watch the livestreams for fun, not because I have too. Plus, some these livestreams go on 2 hours or more.
Some people, including me, don't have time to watch 2 hours of information that is not gonna be in the show.
I think livestreams are great to explore people questions, but a lot of these livestreams are old and likely not to be canon anymore. So that is why I'm a bit hesitant to watch the livestreams as well.
i wasted my time on this dsfjk,bsgakjgkjfgajk
end me
and of course i have to balance it out with fluff
i wanna squeeze lil mk
