#and episode 4 is Arthur offering to drink a poison goblet for Merlin and then goes on a dangerous quest to save him

[normcore-tertiary-character]

Just restarted Merlin and, like, these folks are a little homogay

#the first episode ALWAYS shocks me #walk on your knees for me. will you walk on your knees yet. I'll take you apart with one blow. ill take you apart with less. #but like. by episode 2 its CRITICAL to Merlin that Arthur trusts him and doesnt fire him #seriously he starts working for Arthur like “ew I don't want to be a servant” and within a week is like “😭 Sire dont fire me I need this” #no you dont Merlin you just need to be near Arthur #Then episode 3 is soaring romantic music over Merlin and Gwen having no chemistry and over Arthur and Morgana being siblings #and episode 4 is Arthur offering to drink a poison goblet for Merlin and then goes on a dangerous quest to save him #Boy is down so bad #and Uther - who forced this situation to be a thing like 2-3 weeks ago - is already like “Youre acting crazy for a servant what the fuck” #~he's my destiny~ is the right answer for why arthur is like that and is also a gay ass answer #merlin rewatch
