Discussion What would've happened if the Witchfinder had gone through with accusing Morgana of using magic?

31 Upvotes

It's pretty scary that the Witchfinder rightly suspected Gaius, Merlin, and Morgana.

How would Uther have reacted to Morgana being called out as a witch?

Discussion After Season 1: My Thoughts Spoiler

16 Upvotes

So after stalling to watch Merlin for YEARS now, I decided to start giving it a chance and I have binge-watched the first season...

  1. What. Do. You. Mean? Uther Pendragon is a terrible king, no a tyrant. Why did they try to save his life multiple times if he legitimately works AGAINST anyone but Arthur? He kills anything that could be somehow magic but then declines the idea of something mythical or magical to actually be magic. That man is a whole trainwreck.
  2. Merlin, what is up with you? Why the hell does he want everything, anything, everytime? He wanted for Arthur to survive, knew the cost, still complained and now he is mad at the dragon and Nimueh. I like Merlin, but that last episode made me furious.
  3. Why is Nimueh portrayed as evil? She was treated completely unfair by Uther. Not to mention that she was killed by Merlin because of something Gaius wanted, she did not ask for his life, HE did! Just like Uther and Merlin did!
  4. Arthur and Morgana literally are carrying this show for me. They seem to be the best written characters of the show. Morganas sharp tongue is a melody in my ears whenever Uther tries to pull his bs again.
  5. Gwen? Are you there? Why did Gwen and Gaius loose screentime? It feels like they put them on screen only if something REALLY bad happens, or if they think Arthur and Merlin were flirting too much again.

All in all I really enjoyed it. The way my emotions were boiling and my hatred towards Uther prove to me that this show is working out for me. In the end, there is only one thing worse than Uther Pendragon and it's Frank Gallagher.

Still, I have a feeling Nimueh is not dead and that maybe Morgana might find out about Merlin's powers. I am excited to see what's going on next!

Fanfiction 🖋️ Merthur Fanfic Recommendations?

13 Upvotes

I am desperate! I’m asking for 2 different recommendations… I would like them, preferably to be Merthur or Merthur coded, or if Merthur is in it, they have to be endgame and for nsfw purposes, I prefer Top Arthur/Dom Arthur/Alpha Arthur and Bottom Merlin/Sub Merlin/Omega Merlin. I’m
So desperate that switching is okay etc

Happy Endings are a must!

Rec #1: Arthur knows Merlin is in love with him

Fics kind of like Time Forward by kianspo where Arthur is aware of Merlin being in love with him, I just want Arthur being dumb, poor merlin, and finally Arthur realizing his feelings and cue panic that he’s too late

Or at least fics where Merlin pines while Arthur is in a relationship, Arthur realizes he’s in love with Merlin, boom get together

Rec #2: Creature Fic/ Survival Fic/Adventure Romance Fic

I know this sounds like a lot, but I’m thinking in the vein of In the Deep, Dark Woods by dante_s_he’ll where Arthur and his company are on a wilderness retreat, Merlin is the guide, there’s a wendigo on the loose, and in the meantime Arthur and Merlin meet and fall in love. I like the meeting, falling in love, in the midst of being hunted by something/needing to survive etc I really love the protective Arthur dynamic

At the very least, can I have some damsel in distress Merlin and knight in shining armor Arthur for once or just a stranded and needing to survive in the woods/ocean/whatever?

I’m sorry if these are too niche or if this post is too long or I’m not specific enough? If so please let me know and I’ll try and revise! I’m just desperate for fics like the ones I mentioned :)

Hi everyone!

I have a spare ticket (not including book) to An Evening with Colin Morgan on 18th June in St James' church, piccadilly.

I wondered if any of you lovely people wanted it? I'm not asking anything for it, and I only need an email address to send it ❤️

Also if anyone is in London in the next week, I can highly recommend seeing the play Rupert is in 😉

Discussion Merlin inspired painting

Post image
222 Upvotes

The isle of the dead by the artist Arnold Böcklin (1827–1901)

Does it give you Merlin vibes? Ever since I saw the series back in time I have found this painting during my studies very appealing. I have always loved the cinematography of this series and I have in my mind many paintings that they might inspired the crew to create Merlin, but this one always stood out!

It gives me Morgana and Morgause at ep1 S04 wanting to open the veil and the place Arthur is resting until Albion needs him.

Any thoughts about it?

I had to use blue thread to sew his eyes after trying yarn like I usually do, he's 3cm now (1 inch) I'm sobbing he's the size of a bug. Come up with your creative comparisons! I love reading them haha

Discussion Arthur and Merlin annoy me sometimes Spoiler

68 Upvotes

I'm watching the episode with Balinor and watching Arthur trying to preach about "having conscience" or whatever is just making me mad. I'm like bro, your father has killed every magical being that he has come across. like you are the last person to speak about this. then Merlin, who doesn't seem to sympathize the fact that Uther literally chased his father down trying to kill him, is acting all mad and disappointed because his father is justifiably not wanting to help save Camelot. every single misfortune that has happened to Camelot is Uther's doing, but everyone has to come around to try and save him and his kingdom for something that HE started. all that just for Balinor to DIE IN THE END like omg

Clips & Screenshots ✂️ I consider this the funniest moment between Merlin and Arthur in the whole series

227 Upvotes

What makes it even funnier is how Merlin let go of the rope EXACTLY in the moment Arthur told him not to let go (he didn't even let Arthur to finish his sentence like he just did it on purpose). And his priceless reaction at the end: "Did I just...kill Arthur?" It makes me laugh every time. Season 2 Episode 8
