Windows: Notes on Prejudice and Consequences
A recurring theme that I think is found in Merlin is the use of windows as a symbol for watching the impacts of Magic and the prejudice against those who have it from a (seemingly) safe distance. As if the effects of persecution don't cut deeper than the purge it attempts.
1x01: Morgana turns her face away from the beheading of Thomas Collins in defiance and denial, as she watched from her window. While she has not yet accepted that she has Magic herself, she acts as a fiercely outspoken ally to those who were persecuted in the great purge. Morgana also turns her face away as she tries to deny her inherent qualities and avoid suffering the same fate.
Tumblr media
Referenced in 1x04
“I can’t stand by and watch him die.” “Then don’t look.”
Arthur is recognizing the extent of his father’s elitism and rigid views, which enrages him and inspires him to defy Uther. 
Callback to Morgana turning her face from the window in S1E1 because she cannot bear to see Thomas Collins die.
Arthur and Morgana know that they cannot stop the horrible fates that await those who have Magic, and Morgana cannot bear to watch.
Tumblr media
1x09 Morgana and Arthur speak at the window in half-light, as she begs Arthur not to fight the Black Knight. Morgana knows Arthur’s future is dire, but she can’t tell why she feels that way. Morgana has an innate ability to sense the dark Magic that revived Tristan's spirit.
The half-light represents the half of herself that Morgana has to hide not only from herself, but also from those she loves.
Tumblr media
Merlin and Arthur look down through the window to where the Black Knight stands still, not eating or sleeping. There is no uncertainty that the Black Knight is conjured from Magic, and that the Magic is sure to kill whomever blocks its path.
2x07 Morgana watches the building of the Witchfinder's pyre outside her window. The punishment for sorcery has only increased in severity in the time that she started to accept her true nature. The glass of the window represents the final, fragile barrier between Morgana and the fate she would suffer if she were found out.
(Gwen is so afraid for Morgana to be found by Auredian because she is always and forever an ally.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
2x08 Arthur must convince himself that Magic has no place in Camelot and that he was wrong to think it ever could. As he stands at the window, half in darkness, he separates himself from Magic and can’t look Merlin in the eye. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“I am indebted to you, Merlin. I had become...confused. It is once again clear to me that those who practice magic are evil and dangerous. And that is thanks to you.”
Arthur can sense that what he is saying is wrong, but Merlin does not usually lead him astray. Merlin has always been his voice of honest advice and earnest reason. If Merlin tells Arthur that Magic cannot be legal in Camelot, he has no choice but to believe him. Arthur is fighting his instincts to embrace what he knows is right and fair because of the judgments from those around him.
Arthur looks out the window, away from Merlin, looking down on and keeping himself carefully separated from the people he started to believe he should protect.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
4x03 Merlin watches Uther’s vigil through the same window where Arthur declared all Magic was evil in S2E8. This time, Arthur joins Merlin at the window and suggests that they use Magic to save Uther’s life. 
If Magic can save Uther’s life, Arthur may change his attitude, and Merlin has real hope for the first time that he could be able to finally live freely.
Arthur would not confide this desire in any other person because he knows that Merlin holds no judgment toward others. 
“If you were me, and it was your father, would you use Magic to save his life?” Merlin’s answer is immediate and confident, giving Arthur all the resolve he needed.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The vulnerability and openness in Arthur’s face is as fragile and clear as the glass of the windows they stand by -- so delicate that Merlin is afraid to blink. If he blinks, Arthur's vulnerability might crumble. If he changes his mind, the opportunity might be lost forever.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
5x11 Arthur stands at the window and contemplates if he should free Mordred and Kara, despite their Magic. This time, he claims it is his decision to make. 
Arthur stands on his own, and Merlin is proud of him for choosing to give Kara a chance to repent. Arthur chooses to pardon a person with Magic, so long as she repents for killing innocent men.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Kara refuses to apologize and seals her fate. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“I’ve made a terrible mistake, haven’t I?”
Arthur sits at the window and recognizes his error. Arthur could be referencing any number of things. He may be regretting his decision to execute Kara, not making an exception for Mordred, or the lasting impacts of his lifelong position on Magic.
I maybe could expend on this a bit, as it is all very precariously pieced together at the moment. Feels like it should ultimately be more of an essay than a list of notes like this? idk lol

I was tagged by @carladuquette , thanks girl💗
Currently watching: The boys, Dark s3
Starting soon: Only murders in the building s2
Rewatching: can’t get over my elite obsession unfortunately so I just finished watching episode 2x07 (did I watch it just for the Los Dias raros scene? Of course I did)
Looking forward to: not much honestly, except for the Percy Jackson’s series on Disney+ but I don’t think that’s going to happen anytime soon🥲

Lynn Fainchtein, the og Elite’s music supervisor, passed away this month at only 61. She was great at what she did, so let’s remember some of Elite’s best music moments.
List your favorite or top three, top five, whatever, Elite music moments and if you know anyone who still remembers this show fondly (anyone…?), tag them so they can do it too. Thank you for the music, Lynn ❤️
3. I hear the day has come – Matt Maltese. It first plays over Marina‘s death scene in the season one finale when Nano comes to find her in the pool, and she collapses in his arms. As if that wasn’t sad enough, it’s repeated in season two, when Nano feels he has lost everything and is crumbling the picture of him and his family before he leaves town in the pouring rain. The parallels!
2. Hey Moon - John Maus. Lu and Val and their 🔥🔥🔥 chemistry coming back from the party in the season two premiere, ending the night on the pool table. Need I say more (I need not). Both Danna and Jorge said that this was their favorite scene filmed before season three. 
1. Los dias raros - Vetusta Morla. The montage at the end of 2x07. My favorite Elite musical moment, no contest, and potentially my favorite moment in the show period. Yes, it has Lu finally giving in to Val after she has basically burned everything to the ground with her speech at the fake charity gala. But there is so much more in this scene, too, so many emotions. If nothing in this montage touched you, are you even alive? 
I tag @carlotocotta @dhyanshiva @snappy-bambi @narcobarbies @sizzy-ling @myladyofmercy @ivanpellicer Anyone who’s watched Elite! Doesn’t have to be songs from the first 3 seasons.

2x07 - 84 horas desaparecido
Ayy Samu bites his nails just like me and I just noticed that
- I honestly had forgotten about Nadia's sister that ran too, like poor of her parents with one child left now
- man the police lady must feel like crap after brushing off Samu then him going missing ahshsgs and then Ander just telling her it's her fault agdgags
- I cannot believe Cayetana was willing to take her facade until the very end and boy did it bite her in the ass, I only felt genuinely bad when she cried in the end :( like giiirl you could've told the truth and then asked for money for your grandpa (? Or idk but the way you did it was just plain wrong
- Valerio honey... It's honestly not worthy ahdhsgsgs but you went and did it anyway you bitch
- seeing Omar cry yet again breaks my heart, I'm kinda glad they touches their friendship again but in which circumstances? What's the price?
- Carla has feelings???? Idk what to believe but also in the end when she called Samu and he didn't answer... Explains why she looks so sad in the interrogation agshsgs
- Polo is cancelled that's that
- Guzman really began to question everything and I'm here for it
- tbh I felt for Lu because everyone slapped her in the face and this is handmade karma, maybe if people actually weren't bitches to here, Guzman used her, so did Caye, Carla forgot about her, damn did she attack now
- I probs would support how Lu losing it leads to her going to someone she loves if this wasn't inc*st, like it would all be okay
- that last shot of everyone crying and stressed and then Samu being chased.... I love the drama but it kills me
- now... To the truth...
