bbc merlin - 03x09 Love in the Time of Dragons
this scene. merlin just standing there and watching as arthur figures out how uther could've been poisoned, how it could've only been the remedy gaius gave him. all the while merlin's thinking about how gaius won't listen and how there's no way he can let him take the blame for this.
there's also obviously an interesting dynamic due to merlin having just told arthur that him and gaius were not on the best of terms currently, and how arthur compared them to himself and uther. merlin gave up alice quite quickly, but arthur didn't ask, he didn't say anything, just looked at him. insane.

I want Uther to be the kinda guy who isn't actually homophobic, but his anti-magic laws made it so impossible to change any law that he ends up having to act like he is. (He'd lose his credibility otherwise that the magic laws cannot be changed, cause duh, they are law, lol.)
This results in him having to manage his bi-sons behavior by pulling him aside every time he says something outrageously gay.
The thing is, Arthur is oblivious to the whole thing.
Arthur: Merlin, do you know how to walk on your knees?
*imagine Uther grabbing Arthur by the collar like a cat and facing him*
Uther: son, no.
Arthur: but-
Uther: we talked about this. No flirting with boys.
Arthur: i'm not flirting with him, i'm threatening him. Here, see? "Merlin, i could take you apart with one blow!"
Uther: *facepalms*, oh my god.

I've sort of said this before but how the Light treats blessings is just. So fucken funny.
Tirion gets excommunicated but still gets the divine interventions in his favor every other weekend. Even when he's dead he's still getting blessed. Why? Who fucken knows.
Whitemane gets manually rezzed by the Light every time she dies as its favorite war criminal until she's stabbed with holy weapons and then the Light wants nothing to do with her and lets her be raised as a DK.
Darion received a holy vision from the Light to go see Tirion so he could impart the wisdom of "kill yourself" on behalf of the Light.
The Light refused to help Alexandros, its strongest paladin in the Third War, until Darion killed himself for some reason.
The Light turns Calia undead for.... ????? I read Before the Storm through at least six times and I don't remember if they ever gave a reason.
The Light just LET a dreadlord lead a holy order without striking it down. Do you know how many people died because of that choice?
Anduin survived the bell incident thanks to the Light but now it zaps him every time he has a negative thought.
The Light does not even bother annihilating Arthas when he's fighting Uther despite the fact that Uther is literally the Lightbringer and it would've been so fucken easy to do so. It just lets Uther lose. The Lightbringer. The first paladin.
Just in case you forgot the Light saved Tirion from drowning in fel so he could just die slowly later for no reason.
Turalyon lives in a paradox where his wife is an evil heretic to the Light and wants her dead but if she was dead Turalyon would've been killed ages ago because the Light does not bother to actually save him from shit. But also Turalyon can't die of old age because the Light won't let him.
The Light works in mysterious ways I guess.

Another love potion au but with a twist:
Uther: it's no use. Now you have to court him until the spell is broken.
Merlin: *Arthur hanging off his neck* WHAT?
Uther: he's the crown prince. He can't be rejected by a servant and then be heartbroken over it. What will the people think?
Merlin: at least you don't think I'm responsible for this.
Bonus:
Uther: True love's kiss can break the spell?
Gaius: yes, sire. There is no love potion that can't be broken by it.
Uther: goddamn it, Gaius, you should have told me that BEFORE i drugged him!

Get away from him, Uther. You've caused enough harm. You don't belong here. You must return to the other world.

The contrast between old Merlin's interactions with his friends and Uther are great (Kudos to Colin Morgan, great acting, as usual).
With Arthur and the Knights he was just trolling. He was... "affectionately" insulting them lol
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
But with Uther? Oh it was personal
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Merlin and Uther's interactions are underrated.
This is the man who made him live in fear. This is the man who made him believe he was a monster. This is the man who oppressed him and others like him.
I really enjoyed Merlin's reveal to Uther in season 5. It was so nice to see him finally get to express his feelings to him after all that time spent biting his tongue while Uther ruled. Merlin finally gets some catharsis in telling Uther to suck it.

Uther: Oh, so when a crow remembers people who wronged them and hold grudges, its "intelligent" and "really cool"
Uther: But when I do it, I'm "petty" and "need to let it go"
