saving y'all from the angst so what if sonic stayed in camelot just to help rebuild the kingdom (bc yk he probably feels so fucking bad killing their king and now the kingdom is probably gna crumble w/o his help)

the knights try to get used to calling sonic as well... 'sonic' and not 'king arthur' or any of those formalities bc he hates it. everyone picked up on it quite fast except for… lancelot (he takes a longer time) so i feel their average convo would be:

"Okay! So you settle with those and I'll handle these."

"Yes, sire."

"C'mon, man… I told you to stop calling me that. Just 'Sonic' is fine, yeah?"

"Of course, Sir Sonic."

"… That'll do."

Modern BBC Merlin AU where instead of sorcerers they're vampires and Arthur is just as oblivious that his roommate Merlin is hiding anything from him. Bonus points if the Pendragons are vampire hunters.

Leon: Why does Merlin never have lunch with us? Arthur: He usually sleeps in because he stays up way too late. We'll see him around dinner time.

Gwaine: Are you sure you don't want to head to the beach with us? Arthur, answering for Merlin: Look at how pale he is, he'll burn right up. Not to mention the sun hurts his "sensitive" eyes. Lancelot: *sweats*

Uther: Arthur, why did you remove the crosses and other protections on your apartment? Arthur: Oh, religion makes my roommate uncomfortable.

here's a quick blog introduction:

once & future is the project i've been developing for the past few months, but i didn't get the courage to finalize or post anything until very recently. in short, O&F is a rewrite and reimagining of bbc merlin. this "adaptation" of sorts will have more inspiration from arthurian mythology, but it is not necessarily an adaptation of the story of king arthur. the story can, however, exist alongside arthurian legend and canon.

my main blog -> @ethanscrocs

blog for this universe -> @saintverse

i'm very open to questions, suggestions, headcanons, and drawing requests of pretty much any flavor. you are very encouraged to share your own ideas and i'm quite happy to draw for people! ❤️

I posted about the fucking arthurian legend sonic game

And suddenly

My entire dashboard is just. Shadow as a knight. Or, uh, Sir Lancelot I guess.

Also Silver, who is… actually kinda growing on me a bit.

… Anyway, i need to find a playthrough of this game so i can start making art. Because fellas, i’m a sucker for the knight x king trope. And this will make it Much Worse.

The round table, according to the Vulgate cycles, was a gift from Guinevere's father and one hundred knights were already part of the round table at that point. The remaining fifty knights were chosen by Merlin, on Arthur's behalf. Which is funny, because in the series Merlin already adopted two of five knights himself, knowing in his heart that they were deserving of Arthur's approval and Arthur would approve of them, too.

[sonknuxadow]

sorry i dont really like the shadow is silvers dad theory/headcanon/whatever and part of the reason for it is that people keep presenting it as an actual thing that could be possible even though it makes no sense and all "evidence" people use to back it up is easily disputed

[ID: the train hitting a school bus meme. In the first panel, an empty school bus edges over train tracks and is labelled 'writing planned angst' with a train approaching. In the second panel, the train crashes into the bus and knocks it off the tracks. The train is labelled 'different angst suddenly writing itself'. End ID.]

dp phandom who followed us sorry this is not dp related BABDBS

So-- have been fixating on Sonic for a bit-- a few aus have popped into mind and i want to talk about one called "Gone with the Wind", a satbk au

This au takes place immediately following the end of satbk

Upon being declared King, Sonic decides that he does not, in fact, want to be king and wants to go home, and asks merlinda if she could send him home, She denies his request because she believes their needs to be a king.

He decides right then and there that if no one would help him get home, then he might as well do it himself, he bolts away leaving everyone (including caliburn) in shock.

he stops by Griffin(tails-- this is infact based on a fic iykyk) blacksmith and picks up a different sword (a very basic one-- Griffin makes sure its fitted well-- well as well as he was able too considering Sonic is in a rush) under the lie that Caliburn said he should have a back up weapon just in case, After he buys the essentials like a stock of food and a cloak(for a disguise) and leaves town

He camps out in the dragon's cave since he had already slayed the dragon and there weren't any remaining enemies there anymore since King Arthur was gone. The cave becomes his home as he figures out how the fuck to get home

Meanwhile, the knights set up a missing poster asap, Griffin sees the poster and is concerned for Sonic's well being.

Back to Sonic-- he starts making trips to town every few weeks to refill on food-- Griffin catches him one night but agrees to help him by sneaking him food and other supplies he needs, he also finishes customizing Sonic's new sword to his liking

Another thing is that Sonic will train by Challeging passing knights(usually those he thinks are newer based on how they carry themselves n haow they act, etc) to a friendly duel under a different name(we haven't thought of his fake name yet) usually most dont really think about it. The purpose of training is that if hes caught, he wont be defenseless

SPEAKING OF BEING CAUGHT

Gawain recalls how sonic was heading to slay a dragon in the past before being interrupted by himself-- only to continue on his journey after beating him

Lancelot offers to go, Caliburn says he should bring him along to which Lance declines because he might not even be there

Anyways Lance makes the trip, Sonic was near the entrance and noticed him entering and hides towards the top of the cave in the shadows, covering his blue quills as much as possible so he doesn't stand out

Wasn't sure where to mention this so im plopping it here but Sonic made alot of renovations to the Cave so he was more comfortable while he tried to find his way home-- this includes things like small acoves of food or blankets and wooden bridges that he could run across

Back to the "plot", Despite having a genuinely good hiding spot, Lance notices him considering hes very observant and they have a confrontation-- starting with a sword fight

Sonic kind of shouts at him during the fight about how he never even wanted this and how he was literally taken out of his world without being given any choice in the matter and now they expected him to stay despite literally going by the title knight of the wind

The fight ends there, Lance hesitantly offering comfort while Sonic breaks down over how he just wants to go home and how he misses his friends

Lance is conflicted, hes unsure if its the right thing to turn in Sonic now. He decides that he wouldn't tell the other knights for now while he cleared his head, and tells Sonic just as much. Want to mention this isn't a guaranteed "I wont turn you in" but its a possibility

Sonic is just grateful that hes not being turned into the knights.

This was literally and idea that popped into our head last night so its not completely fleshed out-- we still want to start plotting out how Sonic finds his way home-- atm we want him to talk to the Lady at the Lake at some point for guidance

We've seen alot of aus where Sonic takes up the role of king or is teetering between being king or leaving, so we thought it would be fun to make an au where he very clearly chooses to not be king

In terms of ships n stuff, atm we have nothing but this au could be implied Lansoni (we thrive for more lance and knight of the wind content compared to lance and king arther/sonic(WHICH IS GOOD CONTENT WE JUST WANNA SEE MORE OF THE PRIOR))

Merlin burst into the Council Chambers, normally Arthur would ignore this as Merlin had a habit of doing such, however, the Warlock seemed irritated.

"Arthur, I crave Violence." Merlin shouted as he stormed across the room, grabbing the king by the arm and dragging him out of the hall.

"Should we be concerned about that?" One of the Lords asked.

They looked at one another and then carefully stacked their notes and decided that their Council Meeting could wait. It was best not to stand in the way of a Warlock that could level Camelot, especially when he was craving violence.

Three days later Merlin and Arthur returned to Camelot, an egg held gently in Merlin's hands, the Warlock was covered in blood and dust and Arthur looked a little dazed as he trailed after Merlin, covered in the same amount of dust but much less blood.

"What happened to you?" Gwaine asked as they entered the courtyard.

"Got you an egg." Merlin said with a grin holding the white egg aloft.

Lancelot looked at Merlin and then Arthur, "It's different when he actually fights, huh?"

"He... he..." Arthur looked at Lancelot, "All this time, I thought I was protecting him and then I saw him destroy an armed contingent of bandits because they were going to crack that egg open and sell the dead Dragon parts to the highest bidder." Arthur looked at Merlin again, "There wasn't even a shard of bone left after he was done, just blood."

"Yeah, Merlin's like a Dragon that way, we don't usually leave a bit of our enemies behind lest they return stronger." Lancelot shrugged.

"You don't seem shocked." Arthur said as he looked away from where Merlin was guiding Gwaine on how to Hatch the Dragon, Percival hovering nearby.

Lancelot shrugged, "I've seen Merlin do terrifying stuff to keep you safe, things that would make your father justified in killing him, of course, I've done things that would get me killed under your father's law too, so that's not saying much." Lancelot looked at Merlin, "But I love him, and I know he does what he does for the right reasons. The question is, does this change how you see him?"

"I..." Arthur looked at Merlin as he cooed gently at the newly hatched Dragon, "I think I forgot, that Magic can be used for fighting, Merlin uses it for that so rarely."

"Magic wants to be good, it's growth and renewal, Magic is Life and connections and that's how Merlin tends to use it, he guides it to grow plants, to heal the sick, but when it comes to protecting what's his, Merlin will do what needs to be done, he'll reshape that Life giving Magic until it becomes death for those that oppose him." Lancelot explained, "It's why Nimueh had no hope of defeating him, it's what saw Freya become the Lady of the Lake, it's why Morgause and Morgana failed to keep Camelot. Merlin would never have allowed them to succeed, even if I hadn't killed Morgause myself, she still would have ended up dead, one way or another, just as Morgana would have if Merlin hadn't chosen to save her that day." Lancelot looked at Arthur, "He did that for you, you know."

Arthur looked at Merlin, "I know. What do I do with that power? That my wants might have him overthrow a kingdom if I decide I want it?"

"Make sure there's a good reason to want that kingdom." Lancelot suggested, "Make sure it's for the good of the Kingdoms' people."

"You're not being helpful." Arthur said.

"I'm just a lowly Knight, Sire, I follow my orders, I'm not supposed to pollute your royal mind with my commoner thoughts." Lancelot teased before he nudged Arthur's shoulder with his own, "You haven't done so bad, so far."

"Thanks, Lancelot, I'm glad Merlin decided to keep you." Arthur told him.

Lancelot grinned, "Me too."

--

A/n: is this me wanting Merlin to say that he craved Violence, why, yes, yes it is three guesses on who the Dragon is and the first two don't count.

Got a question, how would you feel about a Freya/Elyan pairing, because I'm thinking about having her come be an Auntie, I'm giving her and Merlin more sibling vibes than Romantic, because she deserves it.

uhh ughfhudjd sonic kinsona lore¿ somewhat????

a conversation between a fallen king jester and his a knight

-

"Sire."

"Hm?"

"Are you not ashamed of your dethronement?"

"Perhaps initially but now, not at all. My identity is anonymous towards others, unlike you and the knights. I am happy with my position, despite being treated like an utter fool. It is what I am now, after all."

"Do not speak so lowly of yourself. You are still worthy of grace."

"Perhaps I am, my dear knight, in one way or another. What I am sure of is that you are worthy of mine."

"I am merely loyal to you."

"As stubborn as you are, I am grateful. Being loyal towards a measly jester is quite frowned upon."

"You will always be my king."

"Oh, Lance… Will I?"

"Always."
