The real reason Arthur gets upset when he thinks Merlin is at the tavern is cuz hes still emo from when Mary the barmaid flirted with him

#listen #tell me i’m wrong #literally the second gaius says merlin is at the tavern arthur goes into boyfriend panic mode #this boy has literally faced battle but his nightmares are just mary trying to steal his boyfriend #arthur will show up to the rising sun in full battle regalia ready to throw down the gauntlet for his twink #merlin is literally like 5 towns over head butting a kelpi #arthur has thrown down his gauntlet at like every man and several women in the tavern anyways #lancelot (who knows where merlin is) is trying to bodily drag arthur away #gwaine is chanting a fight song and living his best life #arthur eventually burst back through gaius’s door like #‘why the FUCK would you put me through thinking he’s at the tavern when he was just throwing hands with a magical creature’ #‘THE KELPI DIDNT EVEN FIND HIM ATTRACTIVE GAIUS’ #‘anyways the ban on magic is lifted’ #all of this is said with merlin over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes #you know this boy tracked down his twink with lancelots help then thanked the kelpi for not hitting on his boyfriend #before knocking it out cold for not finding the light of his life handsome #gaius realizes once again that he loves the two dumbest gays in the world #iconic #in a land of myth #and a time of gays #merlin #arthur pendragon #merthur #the og dumb gays #mary my beloved #bbc merlin
