🧸 for ya bestie Ragnelle

🧸Headcanon about childhood

Ragnelle is 10 years older than her brother Gromer. Since their parents died, he’s her little guy. Her little shadow. It’s like Agravaine and Mordred but way healthier.

Gareth 🧸🔪 for the ask game if u want=)

🧸Headcanon about childhood

I think Gareth is actually a runaway. He didn’t tell his mother where he was going, he just left. But the journey from Kirkwall to Camelot gives a kid a lot of time to think and Gareth started to make up unfortunate potential outcomes in his head. He went into the kitchens not to try and one-up the competition, but to avoid his brothers seeing him and reporting back to their mother. He’s out of touch and didn’t know how they would react, so his anxiety made a mountain out of a molehill. Beaumains time it is.

🔪Headcanon relating to fighting/violence

While Gareth could technically be considered a protege of Lancelot, he tends to overthink the situation, and initially struggles to reach his full potential as a fighter for this reason. He can’t turn his brain off and get in the zone as easily as Lancelot or Gawain. But when he does, he can’t lose.

genuinely so tired of the male love interest in every m/f romance being the most hugelarge tallman to ever growth spurt. I need to see some women swooning over little five foot five rat dudes who need to be tucked in their gf's pocket lest they blow away like a napkin in the wind.

literally so embarrassing to have someone go "i don't go here" or "what's this from?" on my art and it's a rarepair/crackship that is in no way representative of the source material... and i have to be like. well you see, the rest of the restaurant's menu is not like this. i'm doing my own thing eating black olives right out of the can in the back-of-house. whether or not you want me to throw you a can, you have to understand that's not what they serve out front

#omg please do this with Arthurian characters & I’ll answer from the ‘canon’ of my books<3

[queer-ragnelle]

random question! do you have any recommendations for any Arthurian/knight related horror/vaguely spooky movies?

(i apologize if you have a post like this already, tumblr's lack of functional search engine is really something)

Hello!

The only Arthurian movie with horror elements throughout would be The Green Knight (2021). From the outset the entire film is shot very dark, the score is eerie and haunting, the color scheme of green life/rot and red blood plays into the horror as well. There's the obvious violence of the beheading of the Green Knight, but even before that, Morgan's spell and the possession of Guinevere to read the Green Knight's letter are pretty scary! One of my favorite scenes in the whole film. Later, Gawain is captured by scavenger bandits and left for dead, he meets a dead woman and retrieves her severed head, and immediately following his consumption of some mushrooms, he hallucinates moss growing on his hands, and then everything from that moment onward gets a little freaky for him. ;^)))))

Next best example would be Excalibur (1981), specifically the Grail Quest portion. It's a solid 20 minutes of non-stop psychological (and occasionally physical) torture. Arthur is the Fisher King here and rotting away, along with his land and people. Percival and all the knights venture out for what appears to be close to 20 years, as Mordred grows to manhood during this time. Percival is slowly debilitated from cold and hunger, assaulted by angry townspeople, psychologically tortured by Morgan with visions of his dead comrades, hung from a tree and left for dead, and even cosmically harassed by a glowing entity bombarding him with questions. There's also one scene in which Lancelot has a nightmare in which he fights his own suit of armor ("himself") which ends with a self-inflicted injury that never heals for the duration of the film, an allegory for his shame. Insanely good stuff.

After that I would suggest Starz Camelot (2011), which is a show. This has aspects of it I would definitely consider horror or at the least spooky. Morgan's storyline especially as she tries to gather magical power to herself and incurs the wrath of some demons. Morgan is also able to shape shift into other people and it's shot like a grotesque and painful experience which results in blood seeping from her eyes, nose, and mouth. Likewise Merlin deals with these same setbacks while using magic and is haunted by the people he's killed which drives him to madness at one point. Stepping away from the supernatural, the deaths in this show are especially gruesome, somewhat like Excalibur as well, but more of them with the longer run time. There's a scene with a character drawing themselves along a spear to finish their opponent (like Mordred at Camlann), beheadings, even a torture scene with a guy impaled on a stake and unable to flee while [redacted] continues to wound him in non-lethal ways to draw information out of him. So a lot to work with here!

The only other option I can think of is a bit of a stretch, but that's Merlin and The Sword (1985). The Knight of the Cart is adapted here, except that Guinevere is taken to the other world which can only be entered by magical means. Lancelot and Gawain venture there to try and rescue her and come across many corpses and skeletons along the way, which they joke about (they're so normal) but ultimately split up and deal with trials along the way. It has an element of unreality to it, as no one is said to return from there, and the fay rules challenge their every move. Lancelot also brutally murders people along the way including choking a guy with the bar of a spear, lifting his feet off the ground while holding the man to his chest. It's overall pretty camp, but if hopeless quests into other worlds is your thing, that movie has it in spades.

Tragically, that's all I got for you. We need more Arthurian horror! Thanks for the ask, I hope this helps.

thoughts on arthur & merlin knights of camelot (2020)?

Hi Anon!

That movie sure...exists! My biggest gripe with it is that for some reason they chose to shoot it entirely with only natural or candle light. As you can guess, it's very dim. Virtually all interior scenes are harshly shadowed as they're using mostly sunlight with no back lighting to balance it or the shots are hazy from candle smoke. They included a bunch of characters in it though. It's always fun to see Bedivere and Lucan doing stuff!

We're watching it this weekend in the Arthurian Theater Server, if you'd like to join!
