MERLIN REWATCH ✦ 1.02 Valiant
Again i have no clue what im doing but i made this
Au idea where Merlin is more forthcoming
Uther: *during petition hearing* and who are you
Merlin: my name is Merlin, your majesty.
Uther: very well, Merlin. What have you come for today
Merlin: I met your son today in the lower town and he was behaving like an idiot
Uther: I beg your pardon?
Arthur: *sputtering* what? I DID NOT!
Uther: Arthur, be quiet. So, have you come to ask for compensation? A public apology?
Merlin: what? No. I heard you're searching for a new manservant for him. I figured no one else would want the job and I'm new in town.
Uther: *speechless*
Arthur: *even more speechless*
I absolutely love the idea of Arthur writing letters to Merlin saying all those things he couldn't say out loud. He would compose the most heartbreaking breathtaking well-written confessions of longing. But he would hide them in a chest that once belonged to his mother, careful Merlin wouldn't find them should he ever decide to do something outlandish like cleaning the kings chambers.
Now imagine Arthur gets poisoned and falls into a coma, so while Merlin searches everything to determine what happened he finds a spell to see what objects someone touched recently.
So he finds the chest and opens it, staring at dozens of letters addressed to him.
Naturally he would read them and find out about Arthur's love but still he had no clue how to wake him. That's when Morgana shows up telling Merlin she dreamed about the cure and she was fairly sure she could make it with Gaius help
A few hours later the potion was ready and given to the sleeping king, who woke to a sobbing Merlin with those letters in his hands
the funniest part about merlin is the fact that he’s even around for most of the show. like what the fuck is he doing there. no other person with a personal servant is tailed like arthur is. and yet nobody fucking blinks an eye at his presence.
like there are at least three separate occasions where the plot for an episode is uther sending arthur on a super secret confidential mission with the fate of the kingdom at stake, and they have a whole conversation like ‘i need you to understand the importance of the secrecy of this mission.’ ‘understood father, i will take only my most trusted men.’ ‘no arthur, you and YOU ALONE must go.’ ‘i understand.’ and then it cuts to the super secret mission and fucking merlin is just there. like. road trip with my best buddy. what a view. love this horse. like ARTHUR?
everyone always forgets he exists the second a fight happens, too. every goddamn time the knights go on a short patrol that god forbid merlin not tag along for they get attacked by bandits or whatever and merlin doesn’t even carry a fucking sword and after the fight arthur always turns around and merlin is just kinda standing there in the middle of the fight picking at a hang nail. nobody considers it wild that he’s there for all of this. the one time he actually bothered taking a sword off a dead guy to defend himself with arthur saw him holding it and he mocked it like ‘lol the fuck are you of all people gonna do with that’ THEY FULLY EXPECT HIM TO JUST STAND AND WAIT FOR THE FIGHT TO END
