I love the headcannon that Gwaine knew about Merlin’s magic, and without question, kept it a secret.
Gwaine probably saw Merlin use his magic during a fight with bandits (saving everyone in the process) and looked at him for two seconds like ‘I fuckin knew it’
Never talked to Merlin about it, never told a soul. If anyone ever caught on that Merlin had magic he would steer them in the complete opposite direction.
I mean, Merlin never told anyone that he was of noble blood, so it’s only fair obviously.
Say hello to my new account, previously @magicourageandstrength
Me because I have no idea how tumblr works and I already failed once.
Arthur: Merlin, what the hell are you doing?!
Merlin: I was taking a nap, clotpole
Arthur: On my throne?!?
Merlin: Well you weren’t using it. Besides, I do most of the work. I deserve this overrated chair
Arthur: Get off of it!
Merlin: No!
The knights: *betting on who’s going to win this argument*
Merlin: Why do knights feel the need to clobber each other in melees and tournaments?
Arthur: So they can prove themselves worthy
Lancelot: To show their courage
Leon: It’s a test a bravery
Gwaine: Consider it another form of natural selection
This might be the only time I’ve seen Leon without armour on
He’s always ready for a war
And I love him for that
I don’t know how I would feel about a season 6 of merlin.
Would I love to see what happens and how merthur finally plays out?
Absolutely
Do I want to see Arthur adjusting to the 21st century, and Merlin trying not to go insane?
With a doubt
Do I think it’s worth the chance of finishing a beautiful series that already has a tragic yet meaningful ending, with something that doesn’t have the same sentiment?
No, not in the slightest
I thinks it’s gotten to the point that I can’t tell canon from fanon anymore. It’s all starting to blend together and I don’t know what’s real.
I can show you all that I’ve got to give
If you need a lover, I need a reason to live
You want applause, I’m selling standing ovations
I’ll be obsessed with showing you affirmations
And you can be my next hyperfixation

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I hate it when people say Merlin and Arthur are black cat × golden retriever (respectively), because have you seen Arthur?? That's the most cat-coded human I have ever seen.
He's weird about touching and emotions, he's bratty and arrogant, and he thinks he can beat big scary monsters all by himself—exactly like those videos of orange cats attacking bigger animals.
I headcanon him as a pretty blond cat whose owner spends a lot of money on him, basically living like The Aristocats movie.
And for Merlin, he's a frail-looking street dog that someone thinks is so adorable and takes pity on him, so they adopt him.
He's friendly, loyal, and his owner swears the dog doesn't bite (he hunts 'bad' humans and sometimes eats their flesh), but his owner doesn't know, so it doesn’t count. Also something about Merlin still waiting for Arthur to return for 1500+ years is too similar to Hachi the dog who waited by the train station for his owner until the day he died.
But in this case the dog is unfortunately immortal, so I guess he will wait forever.
Arthur: *going through the kingdoms records* we met a few days before you became my servant didn’t we?
Merlin: Yeah? Why do you ask?
Arthur: We met each other 1,706 days ago
Merlin: 1,706 days of hell
