#is this about bbc merlin? absolutley

my favourite type of fan fictions are like. Slightly canon divergent. Like everything is the same but we fix this one annoying detail you can’t stand and let it butterfly effect the whole story.

#bbc merlin #is this about bbc merlin? absolutley #but this also applies to other fics too #or even an adjustment to the intensity like give me a PJO fic that’s the same but everything is as dark as it should be

Omg I was just think which I’m sure someone else has said this but…

Yk the color of the Camelot seal are red and gold.

Merlin is always trying to save Arthur using his magic which is gold. Arthur always ends up hurt anyways because he’s an idiot but he bleeds which is red.

So yes two sides of one coin and what not. So when Arthur does Albion or whatever it’s called can’t come to its golden age because the red (Arthur) is gone. Leaving only one part of the great Albion which is the gold (Merlin).

Don’t get wrong I eat up those little fan fictions about Arthur thinking Merlin is scared of magic and what not but, Merlin’s best friend literally had magic in Arthur’s POV so like he knew Merlin was chill with magic. Like Ik it’s fanfic and all that but it low key make me mad sometimes. Also like it’s right there that Arthur even though knowing Merlin is okay with magic loves him anyways and doesn’t make him out as an enemy WRITE ABOJT THAT. Sorry I just feel very strongly about this.

Hunith was probably constantly worried about Merlin. She did all she could and she new Camelot was dangerous but she didn’t know where else to send her son. Her only child she had to send directly into the line of fire.

Do you think she waited for a letter from Giaus saying he got caught? Constantly worried she would lose her only son.

Then when she finally gets to see him again I bet she was so relieved because he looked okay. Sure things were hard being the princes manservant and all but he was loved and she knew that. Even after see just how much Arthur cared about Merlin she just waited for that letter.
