Arthur: I'm a stone-cold killer. Nothing has ever gotten to me. I'd like to see you try and make me feel a single thing.
Morgana: Yesterday Merlin told me that he didn't like you very much.
Arthur: *voice breaking* Oh, he did?

OMG! OMG! OMG! OMFG!
I just read the must gut-wrecking fanfic I ever read this week...
And I haven't even finished it!
Yet I know it will be amazing!
The fanfic is from the show Merlin BBC (Not the cartoon)
The main couple are Merlin and Arthur of course!
Arthur is smitten, sweet, gentle, loving, and ABSOLUTELY lovestruck with Merlin! Like, he would give him the moon itself if Merlin asked.
And Merlin is Emrys, they didn't meet like in Canon instead they met when Arthur went undercover to the lower town to try and 'capture' the sorcerer Emrys.
And then they fall in LOVE, like TOO DEEP IN LOVE!!!
Spoiler Alert
They start courting and their absolutely sweet about it, there's a tiny bit of smutness in it, bit overall it's romance and love.
And do you know how Arthur found out Merlin was Emrys!? They were having an 'intimate' moment on Arthur's bed after a dinner date... and Merlin got too excited and his eyes turned yellow.. But he had them closed until Arthur called his name, and so as the good love smitten idiot he is, he opened his eyes and looked at Arthur......
And O M G! I Did not continue reading after that part! I think I need to see a therapist before I finish that chapter.. So... Tumblr is gonna be a good therapy for me to find people to cry with about this fanfic
The fanfic name is "the search" it's written by "merlinflowers" it's on Wattpad, I don't know if it's available on any other app.. But that's all
Bye.

I feel bad for not having posted any merthur in a while.
Here’s a small, Cinderella-esque AU snippet from my drafts. 🫶
Apollo didn’t even snicker in discomfort at the boys approach, in fact, he almost preened.
“He’s beautiful.” The boy murmured, putting his palm flat to the horses snout. Apollo loved it, which was strange.
“He never lets anyone touch him, aside from me.” Arthur says, mostly to himself.
“Tell them to be gentle. And approach with respect.” The boys, startlingly blue eyes flick up to Arthur then back down to the horse.
“What do they call you?” He asked before he could think better of it.
“Never mind what they call me.” He patted the snout once more and moved two paces back, finally taking in Arthur’s full form.
“What is someone like you doing in the forrest alone?”
“Is my identity that obvious?”
“I’m afraid so, sire.” A small smirk finds its way onto his face. “It was your cloak…and your posture, that gave you away.”
Arthur laughed despite himself.
“Well, now we are unbalanced. You know my name and I do not know yours.”
Merlin did not respond but the small smile didn’t leave his face as he turned to look out into the forest.
“Your knights will be here soon, Prince Arthur.”
The prince snapped his neck in that direction and held his breath, listening for sounds of movement. He heard none.
“How do you know?”
That got him a small shrug.
“I have my ways.” The raven haired boy began gathering his bag full of plants.
“I fancy keeping my head, sire, so I’ll be taking my leave. You will be safe with them.”
“Why would they take your head?” Arthur couldn’t help but question gently.
The boy shook his head and said nothing.
His blue eyes found Arthur again, which caused little bubbles of nerves in his stomach.
“Please, be careful. These woods are not always kind and surely will not show a Pendragon any mercy.”
“If that is the case, how are you surviving without a weapon?”
“Who said I didn’t have a weapon?”
The sound of hooves and clanking armor distracted his eyes, and when he looked back to the spot the boy had been standing, he was gone.
Vanished into thin air, or into the trees. But Arthur never heard a rustle, never a footstep.
He was disappointed to see him go but glad that he was gone before the knights broke through the tree line. If Arthur’s suspensions were correct, he didn’t want the boy interrogated by them either, even if a handful of them were as noble as they come.
Arthur didn’t really want to take that chance.

No, I'm not crying about a show that ended over a decade. No, I don't miss Camelot, and Merlin and Arthur sharing one brain while being also devastating heartbreaking. You can't prove anything!

sometimes I wake up In a cold sweat thinking about the idea that kilgharrah was just using merlin to get the outcome he wanted which was to end the pendragon bloodline. That he knew how it would end and that without merlin it wouldnt all occur, so he convinces him that all his decisions will help save arthur knowing damn well where it leads them.

Arthur: I want to wake up to you every day for the rest of our lives.
Merlin: I wake up at sunrise.
Arthur: …
Arthur: I want to see you at a reasonable time every morning for the rest of our lives.
Merlin: I could always laze in bed till you wake up.
Arthur, knowing that will more than likely mean waking up to Merlin playing with his hair every morning: Perfect. Yes. Do that.

Arthur and Leon, watching Lance flirt with Merlin:……
Leon: You’re awfully quiet, Sire.
Arthur, sharpening his sword: Nobody plans a murder out loud.

“You would choose Merlin over your sovereign?” Frustration was present in his tone but it gave no indication of what Arthur wanted the answer to be.
So, instead, Leon told the King the truth.
“No, sire. We would choose Merlin because you are our sovereign.” Arthur was taken aback at that. “If we allowed any harm to befall Merlin, even by your own hand, you would never forgive us, Arthur.”
At once, Arthur knew Leon was right.

Merlin traveling back in time to save Arthur AU but with a twist!!
Merlin makes it to the sidhes, bringing a barely breathing Arthur with him. As expected, they ask for a price and Merlin offers his life, ignoring Arthur's protests.
Sidhe1: You're inmortal you can't die
Sidhe2: And even if you could, killing you would mean killing magic itself, therefore killing the earth itself.
Merlin: (crying desperate) I don't care! Take what you need! My blood, my magic, anything! Just save him!
Sidhe1: (smiling evily) I might know just the thing.
They never tell him what are they going to take from him, but he agrees. The sidhes start the ritual, while Arthur just keeps pleading weakely
Merlin: (smiling) If I somehow don't come back-
Arthur: (crying) Stop! Merlin don't do this. Please!
Merlin: I just want you to know that I love you.
Before Arthur can answer the ritual ends and Merlin blacks out.
When he wakes up he is in his way to Camelot in his old clothes and 10 years younger. He soon discovers he's been brought back to the very first day he met Arthur. He's confused. Have the Sidhes taken from him years of his life as a price? It doesn't make sense to him, but he decides to take advantage of this to prevent some things from happening.
Time goes by and while, in general, all events are repeating, not everything is happening as he remembers. Some people arrive in his live early, like Lancelot or Gawain. And Arthur treats him better? Like he says thank you to him more often and listens to him more. Merlin thinks it’s weird, but brushes it off thinking it’s due to the changes he's been making that some things are not quite the same.
Then the day comes when he finally reveals his magic to Arthur. He cries and Arthur hugs him telling everything its okey. Nothing its going to happen to him. Shortly after however Arthur also has a confession.
Arthur: I already knew.
Merlin: What?! Since when?
Arthur: the very start.
Merlin: How? I've been careful! More careful than before!
Arthur: Because you told me before. Well, not really before, but in the future. It’s complicated.
Merlin: Wait... you are from the future too?!
They are both surprised. They thought they were alone in this and it turns out they never were. Merlin cries all over again, apologazing for everything, for failing him, for not being able to save him, but-
Arthur: You did.
Merlin: ... What?
Arthur: You did save me.
Merlin: No, the sidhes tricked me. They sent us back in time-
Arthur: It was not them who did that. It was me.
Merlin: What... what are you saying?
Turns out what the ritual really did was turn Merlin into a small tree in exchange for saving Arthur’s life. A magic tree that would grow taller and taller and never die and whose ruts would expand making magic florish in the earth forever. Arthur of course was really upset after that. He demanded the sidhes to turn Merlin back but they only told him "what's done it's done" and that all he could do was pick the tree up before the roots growed if he wanted to move it elsewhere.
Arthur put the tree in a pot and brought it back to Camelot. Everyone was devasted with the news but they were also glad their king was alive and safe. No one blamed him, but Arthur always blamed himself. He repealed the ban as soon as he could and made sure everyone knew Merlin's involvement in the battle and later the other things he find out Merlin did for Camelot through Gaius. He made an anual event and a statue in Merlin's honor. Camelot slowly but surely welcomed magic again and became the most prosperous kingdom in the land.
Merlin: Oh...I don't remember being a tree.
Arthur: Yeah, I figured.
Merlin: But you repealed the ban! That's great! Magic was free again in the-wait... so why did you do all this if everything was fine? And how did you do it?
Arthur: Everything was NOT fine Merlin. You weren't there!
Merlin: (utterly confused) I was. As a tree.
Arthur: You know what I mean! You were there but you weren't. We mourned you but you were still alive. I kept you in that pot for longer that I should have because I wanted to keep you close all the time, yet looking at you was so painful... Gwen had to scold me into finally plant you in the garden so you could grow properly. I was broken inside, while trying to rule a kingdom. I kingdom we should have ruled together from the start!
Merlin: ...
Merlin: You're telling me you somehow traveled us back in time and throw away the golden age, your dream of uniting all Albion and all you worked hard for... just because you missed me?
Arthur: And because I couldn't say it back.
Merlin: What?
Arthur: That I love you too.
