[floating-on-avalon]

King of Camelot, ladies and gentlemen

[floating-on-avalon]

"I want Merlin back. Where is he?" Arthur, honey, I hope you know you both look and sound like you're about to cry.

[floating-on-avalon]

Agravaine: are you sure you should marry a servant

Arthur:

Agravaine:

[floating-on-avalon]

"I came back because you're the only friend I have and I couldn't bare to lose you." Never not think about this

[floating-on-avalon]

Arthur's face when Merlin says he's going to fight the dragon with him. He mightn't know it yet but he is in love

[floating-on-avalon]

I love how soft Arthur's "what are you doing" (when Merlin is "looking for woodworm") is. He is not at all concerned about Merlin just being in his room.

[floating-on-avalon]

"Because I'm the king of Camelot. Not that that seems to mean amything to you." Love Arthur fully acknowledging how little Merlin aplears to care about his position as king. Cause in a surface level respect way and a friendship way he doesn't but also it's what Merlin has been working towards for so long.

[floating-on-avalon]

Gwen: We need men like you. Lancelot: You do? Gwen: Well, not me personally, but you know... Camelot.

Arthur: Because, Lancelot, you fight like a knight. And I need...Camelot needs...

This could mean nothing

[floating-on-avalon]

Mithian clocking how important Merlin's opinion is to Arthur

[floating-on-avalon]

Arhur refusing to listen to Merlin for most of the episode. Yet when it comes down to it, when he doesn't know what to do, he asks Merlin

[floating-on-avalon]

Arthur is not denying the friend allegations

[floating-on-avalon]

Gwaine's "such a waste, eh?" was him trying to be charming while fighting

[floating-on-avalon]

Playing the romantic music cause without it it would seem like gwen was about to (deservedly) kill arthur

[floating-on-avalon]

"What happened to the young boy who came into my chambers just a few years ago?" "He grew up."

"What happened to you, Morgana? As a child you were so kind, so compassionate." "I grew up."

Merlin and Morgana paralles my beloathed.

[floating-on-avalon]

It's the fact that Arthur was really considering letting magic back to save Mordred that maybe magic wasn't all bad. (Watch this growth be gone by the next episode.) But then Merlin has to open his mouth and day "there can be no place for magic in Camelot". I honestly believe he would have brought magic back if Merlin had supported that decision.

Oh percival elyan reunion "you alright?" "I've been locked up with gwaine for a week." And then leon putting gwaines arm around his shoulders
