There's This Intensity In The Way That Merlin And Arthur Look At Each Other, Like They're Discovering

Uther: You gave my wife’s sigil to a servant?!

Arthur: Ah, but he’s my favourite servant :D

Merlin: Bad things always happen in 3’s

Arthur: Thats just a stupid superstition

Merlin: Really? You think so?

Arthur: Name one time 3 bad things happened

Merlin: I saw you three times my first day of Camelot and where did that get me?

I think that if Arthur knew how much the druids worshipped Merlin, he would not take it seriously.

Just like how Merlin completely disregards Arthur being king, Arthur would not care in the slightest.

He would be shocked at first, but then he would get used to it. Eventually, he would use it to poke fun at Merlin.

Neither care about the other’s rank, and I think that its the foundation of their friendship.

Arthur: You are the bane of my existence

Merlin: I will leave right now and never come back, say hi to George for me

Arthur: and the object of all my desires

Merlin: wh- I- you- fuck, I’ll stay

Merlin’s birthday

I need more fics where Merlin doesn’t know his birthday.

Cause he grew up out in the country, and of course they lose track of the days out there. They don’t have a calendar. It makes sense that he might not know the exact date he was born.

When Arthur finds this out he’s absolutely bewildered, like ‘what do you mean you think you’re 22’.

Arthur makes it his mission to find out the day he was born and surprises Merlin with a party or something.

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 think I’ve read every Lamia fic in the world twice. I need more. I need it like I need water. Scratch that, I need it like I need coffee.

I need Merlin angst and protective Arthur. It’s what I live (and die) for.

Me when there’s no more Lamia fics to read

Imagine this

Arthur and Merlin get cursed by a sorcerer/sorceress to feel pain when they get too close to each other. The opposite of the forced proximity trope.

When they finally figure out how the curse works, they don’t seem that worried about it. Arthur jokes about how Merlin was annoying him recently and Merlin mentions getting some time off for once.

However, it’s so hard for them to stay away from each other. They keep accidentally getting too close to one another. It gets so bad that they have to be dragged to Gauis by some knights that found them passed out in the hallway.

Arthur and Merlin are more bothered by the curse than they would care to admit. They make a silent promise that they won’t leave the other alone for at least a week when it’s done.

as always, send me any fics that are like this

I’m sorry but let’s just take a moment to appreciate HIM

I think more people need to see this
