I love quilting more than life itself, and I love BBC Merlin as much as I love quilting. I want to make a Merlin inspired quilt but I don’t know if I want to choose fabrics that I feel like match the vibe, or do a deep dive into quilting of the Middle Ages, if quilting even existed back then. I’m so happy that I have enough space in my mind to be stumped about THIS of all things

Uther after seeing Gwen and Arthur kiss: Arthur what the actual fuck has gotten in you?! Arthur: Father I - Uther: How could you- I mean is this because of me? Is your sole aim to defy me??! Arthur: What no that's not the reason Uther: Oh so you just randomly decided to betray Merlin with Morgana's maid? Right after I told him I approve of your 'BOND'. I'm not a fool Arthur, I knew that boy was too good for you. He would have given his life for you! MULTIPLE TIMES! You BETRAYED him. When all he did was protect you, even gave you a sword - literally not metaphorically speaking. Arthur: Wha- Uther: you have no shame HE IS ADORABLE ARTHUR

Voldemort: *casts cruciatus curse on Death Eater*

Harry: *just wants to sleep without having a vision* Hey, stop that. We don’t cast the cruciatus curse on our friends. When we have big emotions, we talk about them, not use them to hurt others.

Voldemort: *absolutely gobsmacked at the audacity*

Harry: *horrified that he just used gentle parenting on the man who murdered his parents*

Voldemort: *spluttering in rage*

Harry: *gives up on sleep entirely*

I just imagine Merlin gentle parenting Arthur and the other knights when they're drunk.

Merlin: No. Gwain no, put the sword down. No weapons in the tavern.... Leon, if I have to tell you again that we don't stand on chairs, we're going home!

Arthur: Merlin! Come sit with me!

Merlin: Sire, I'm a little busy at the moment. Drink your ale.

Arthur: But Merlin! I want you over here now!

Merlin huffs and goes over and stands infront of him.

Merlin: Okay, what?

Arthur: *pulls Merlin down in his lap*

Merlin: Arthur! You cabbage head! Let me go! People will see!

Gwain: Oooooo mom and dad are fighting again....

Percival: Shut up and drink your ale or mom will smack you.

Merlin: I heard that!

Spending a few days with my paternal family is always an eye opening experience. When I’m with my mom’s family I can be so bubbly and happy. Then a few days with my dads family reminds me that I’m actually a miserable fuck who comes from a long line of other miserable fucks

me reading my first fanfic at the tender age of 12

[blindlymenacing]

I want a BBC Merlin fanfic where Hunith visits Camelot as a surprise. Merlin doesn't know she's coming, only Gaius knows that she plans to visit. This is set in a time period where all the knights are alive (I'm looking at you Lancelot.) and Arthur is Prince, but running the Kingdom as Uther is unwell.

Hunith pulls up to Camelot and is walking towards the Castle through the citadel, burdened by her bags, when a cheerful voice rings out. "Do you need any help, miss?" It's one of the many Castle servants.

Hunith explains that she is heading to the Castle to visit her son who works there, the servant then offers to carry her bags.

"Oh I don't want to be a bother." Hunith replies

"It's no bother at all! Really, I was heading that way already." The servant insists and they both make their way to the castle, "What's your son's name by the way, I might know him if he works here."

"His name is Merlin." Hunith responds with a smile. The servant stops walking and looks at her. It's not only him that stops at this announcement.

"Y-you're Merlin's Mother?!?" A nearby servant who had been close enough to hear the conversation says in awe.

The courtyard that they're walking through gradually fills with hushed whispers as the news spreads. Everyone knows of Merlin. The Prince's manservant who had managed to not quit in the first week of serving him. Merlin, who changed the Prince from a spoiled brat into a good man whom the Kingdom was proud of and eagerly awaited the day he would be crowned King. Merlin, who had followed the Prince into battle time and time again to save Camelot.

I want a fanfiction where The Entire Of Camelot loves Merlin and is thankful for his role in making Arthur a good person. Where not only the Knights, but the Castle staff meet his mother and collectively decide that she is That Woman and treat her with Respect. Where they treat her like Royalty.

Ofc Gwaine loves her. That's his best friend's mom. Hunith looks at all the knights and adopts them on the Spot.

And Merlin is either really confused by this behavior or knows and just lets it happen.

Arthur has no idea what's going on or why but he treats her with reverence and love because that's his future Mother in Law and he's very much starved for parental affection which she gives him (and the knights) in spades.

But yes, I just want a fic of people meeting Hunith and being like "Thank you for giving birth to your son. I'd die for you both" and her being like "...please don't."

(Bonus if Leon meets her and is just like. "How did you survive being around that little shit (Merlin) for so long?" And she just laughs and gives him advice, which makes him cry because he's just so tired. #LetLeonRest2024 I will push this agenda till I die)

When someone you love is going through something shitty, and there’s nothing you can do about it but watch others do them wrong. I want to fucking scream. I want to make everyone else in this situation feel miserable for what’s happening.

[blindlymenacing]

Arthur: *has a minor, tiny, minuscule scratch after a battle*

Merlin: *inhuman screech*

Leon: *casually pulls a bucket of popcorn out of his cape*

I came across the tag “Will Byers Has A Gun” and I have never been more delighted

Uther: Why are you always taking your servant everywhere you go?

Arthur: As bait for Enemies.

Morgana: Why do you always take Merlin with you?

Arthur: For entertainment.

Gwen: You are taking Merlin everywhere with you. Why’s that?

Arthur: To cook me dinner.

Leon: Why do we always have to take Merlin with us?

Arthur: In case someone gets injured.

Gaius: Why do you go everywhere Arthur goes?

Merlin: Someone has to make sure he doesn’t get himself killed.

Merlin: We have to go hunting again?

Arthur: Would you rather stay home with a chore list the length of the jousting field?

Merlin: 😠 Clotpole.

Another doodling of Cute Big-Ear Sorcerer/Colin Morgan. Try to make it look smooth and rough at the same time.  Think I should draw canon era Merlin more often, cuz I miss his neckerchief so much. :`-(

Royal woman approaching Arthur for a dance

Arthur: did it hurt when you fell from heaven?

Merlin: actually yes. That hurt a lot.

Arthur: wha- I wasn't talking to you!!!!

... Later ...

Gwen: why is Arthur so nervous around you?

Merlin: Arthur was trying to rizz someone up, which annoyed me, so I put an end to it.

Gwen: what did you do?

Merlin: nothing.

Gwen: ...

Merlin: at an unrelated note, what kind of angels does Arthur believe in? The ones with the wings, or the formless ones with the giant eye balls? Or do you think it would be enough for my eyes to glow a little in the dark when he's not suspecting anything?

Merlin: *over 1,500 years old, living in a nursing home to give the employees gray hairs and anxiety*

Poor CNA (I don’t know the British version of a certified nurses assistant) who lost the daily game of rock paper scissors: Okay Mr. Wylt, you’re all set. You’re dressed, your shoes are on, and I’ve hung a jacket over the front of your walker in case you need it. *turns to leave*

Merlin: *ready to cause trauma*

Merlin: *in the saddest voice ever* Where are you going?

CNA: *knows something is about to happen* Oh, I just need to help the other residents, then I’ll be back as soon as I’m done!

Merlin: I’m being abandoned! *turns to his roommate* Richard! Get the candle!

Richard: *smirks evilly while lighting a candle with a label that says, “Smells like abandonment”*

CNA: *sighs heavily*

Merlin would be a hoot as a dementia patient, and you cannot convince me otherwise. His performance as Dragoon speaks for itself

*Uther and Gaius watching Arthur and Merlin leave for a quest, even though Arthur was told to go alone*

Uther: How much longer are we going to be subjected to waiting for those tragic little gay men to figure themselves out?

Gaius: *sighs* They’re idiots to lovers, who knows?

[blindlymenacing]

Merlin: *old and bored af waiting for Arthur to get his ass out of that damn lake, moves himself into an assisted living facility for the hell of it*

Some poor hapless employee: Mr. Wylt, would you like some fruit punch to go with your cookie?

Merlin: *pauses for a second*

Merlin: *debating between letting said poor hapless employee escape this unscathed, or chaos*

Merlin: *chooses chaos*

Merlin: *gasp* I’m gonna get PUNCHED?

Poor hapless employee: What? No! I’m asking if you would like some fruit punch, the juice, it’s for drinking. It’s popular for parties and during the summer.

Merlin: *Dragoon mode is fully activated* My gods! I’m being threatened! I’m gonna get punched!

Poor hapless employee: *watched as their last thread of sanity is engulfed in flames*

AKA, a dramatic retelling of something that happened to me at work, but make it Merlin.

[blindlymenacing]

Gwen: *absentmindedly strokes Morgana’s hair as she’s tucking her into bed* Goodnight my lady, sweet dreams.

Morgana: *lesbian panic* My sweetest dreams have you in them.

Gwen: *oblivious* And my days spent with you are sweeter than any dream. *then she leaves*

Morgana: *sobbing because Gwen is too adorable*
