something about how arthur pendragon is represented by two colors: red and gold. his hair is golden his skin is tan his crown made of gold. how merlin says his magic is all for arthur and his eyes turn golden too. how arthur's flag and heart are red, how his love is fervent. how merlin is always either wearing a pendragon red neckerchief or tunic, being enveloped by it, him, both literally and figuratively.

Title: the ordeal of being (but with you)
Author: @slantedknitting
Archive Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Rating: Teen and Up
Pairing: Merlin/Arthur Pendragon
Additional Tags: Post-Canon, Mushrooms, Hallucinations, Hallucinogens, Mushroom Induced Hallucinations, Arthur Pendragon Retursns, Sharing a Bed, Arthur cuts Merlin's Hair, Merlin has PTSD, Merlin has Nightmares, Arthur Comforts Him, Nightmares, Arthur Wants to Live on a Farm, Getting Together
Summary:
Merlin lives alone - if what he’s doing can really be called living. He sleeps, he eats, he whittles. Sometimes he dreams, but he wish he wouldn’t, especially when the line between dreams and the waking world starts to blur.
This isn’t how Merlin wanted to be found by a miraculously returned Arthur, but this is his reality.
Written for @paxopalotls for the Merlin Pride Exchange!

Honestly this pair lives in my mind rent free. Image best paired with “A Slumber did my Spirit Seal” by William Wordsworth

Cat Arthur: [sees Merlin sleeping]
Cat Merlin: [napping on a cushion Morgana bought for him]
Cat Arthur: "You know, you never used to sleep this much when we were humans." [Nudges Merlin with his snout, whiskers twitching]
Cat Merlin: [yawning, one eye open] "That's because I don't have to run after you cleaning your royal mess. Now let me sleep, this cushion needs my attention." [Closes eye, ready to sleep again]
Cat Arthur: [miffed at his mate beginning to ignore him, before climbing and laying on top of the black cat]
Cat Merlin: [sighing] "Seriously Arthur?"
Cat Arthur: [growls, roughly licking Merlin's ears and head in typical prattish response]

stop why dont more people talk about the merlin fandom and its obsession with pairing up the most random side characters😭😭 lets be so real here weve all seen the will/freya, will/gwen, will/sophia, i saw will/lancelot once, or vivian/percival, or elyan/freya, or elena/gwaine, and personally i think its the best thing about this fandom

Anyone else have those fandoms where you have your otp that you go absolutely feral for. And you get so obsessed with it that when you come across a different ship, you get whiplash for a second before being like, "Oh yeah, I remember this ship." And then your heart does a thing at something cute they did, and you're like, "Oh yeah, I actually seriously ship this. Just in, you know, a slightly more sane way."
To me, it's just the difference between:
'I NEED CONTENT OF THESE TWO LOVING EACH OTHER RIGHT NOW OR I WILL EXPLODE!!!!!!!!" *aggressively smooches them together*
And:
"I just think they're neat." *tucks them in together nice and cozy, kisses them on the head, and turns out the light for them.*
.....I did say 'slightly' more sane.

Camelot Remix 2023 - Week 3
Tumblr media
Fic: A trip to love for Laevateinn (Gwaine/Percival – Teen and Up – 662w) Summary: Gwaine and Percival are planning a trip to go admire the northern lights... But a worldwide pandemic gets in the way of their trip. Fic: Morgana and the Hall of Fortune (A Fickle Canon Fix Remix) for Willowsmarika (Gen – Teen and Up – 10509w) Summary: After being run through by Merlin, Morgana Pendragon is offered an intriguing choice. Fortune has not smiled on her in her past endeavors, but perhaps there is wisdom to be gained, still, and a chance at a happier fate. Fic: Life is for the Living (A Prayer before Birth Remix) for polomonkey (Merlin/Arthur – Teen and Up – 3225w) Summary: Merlin has always loved watching Arthur. Fic: Out in the Snow, A Tiny Warlock Glows - Remix for NivellesArt (Nivelle) (Gwaine/Merlin – Teen and Up – Art) Summary: Merlin and Gwaine are away from others, and Camelot. They are attacked by bandits and while Gwaine is dealing with seemingly the last one of them, he realizes Merlin is seriously wounded. Fic: Something So Magic About You (The Taste of Temptation Remix)for insane_falcon (Merlin/Arthur – Explicit – 27053w) Summary: “You’re more interesting than I thought you’d be,” Arthur admits, allowing his lips to curl into a smile that hovers somewhere between supercilious and patronising. “But you should really give up while I’m playing nice. I’ve been trained to kill since birth.”
His breath catches in his throat as the boy lets out an undignified snort. That was not quite the reaction he was aiming for... Before he can come up with something clever and scathing to say, the boy doubles down.
“And how long have you been training to be a prat?” he asks, again raising that damned eyebrow of his. “Or did that just come naturally?”
For an excruciating moment, Arthur is struck speechless. How dare this…this imbecile insult him to his face? A prat? He’ll show him who’s the prat!
Arthur’s eyes narrow as he brings his sword back up, but instead of cowering in fear, the boy merely smirks at him.
Or:
Arthur catches an apple thief and ends up getting more than he bargained for. (and no, I‘m not just talking about sex, although he does very much get that, too) Fic: Bearly Beloved (The Arto-Maglos Remix) for MerlinMorganEmrys (Arthur/Gwen – Gen – 7500w) Summary: Once upon a time, there was a prince who was rather prattish.
Because of his prattishness, he was cursed to become a bear. ...
“Merlin, listen. This afternoon, I heard a girl singing in the forest. I have a plan.”
“Kidnapping her?”
“No.”
“Kidnapping her father?”
“No!”

can i just say, the merlin writers saying that they didn't give the actors a lot of area for improv does not make the homoerotic scenes better because that means it wasnt just the actors going "yeah i can see how gay this is, let me just subconsciously make it gayer". it was the writers purposely going "this is gay, dumbass, now act like it" and the script for the pilot episode is proof

Werewolf Arthur: [licking Merlin's scent gland]
Werecat Merlin: [purring happily]
Werewolf Arthur: Are you sure you want this Merlin? I can wait.
Merlin wraps his legs round Arthur's waist, grinding up against the muscular body of his chosen werewolf, mating between their kind were rare as werecats and werewolves usually don't mix together.
Werecat Merlin: [nuzzling Arthur's face] No more waiting, I want this, I need it. Only you can complete me. [Breathing in Arthur's musk] Mmmm, only you I will accept.
