Uther: you are not good enough for my son.
Merlin: you’re not good enough for your son.
Uther: excuse me?
Merlin: you heard me.

Obsessed with the idea of sorcerer's eyes turning gold as means of scaring off predators, similar to how poisonous frogs are generally brightly colored to warn away birds, or how certain butterflies use startle coloration to temporarily shock their predators with a sudden color change. The golden eyes act, essentially, as a glaring warning to the opposition that a sorcerer's insides are far more threatening than they may appear on the outside. Or, at the very least, as a means of temporarily startling the enemy while the sorcerer makes a quick escape.
Also consider - frog/butterfly coded!Merlin. This man is pure amphibian/insect just look at him! Truly a creature.

Midnight was my first time seeing Colin Morgan in anything, and I instantly became OBSESSED with Jethro. I liked the plot, but I loved the 47th century emo representation on board the ship. It was my favorite episode because of Jethro. I could relate to him. I bought a book about Midnight just for the pictures of him in it…. Younger me for some reason didn’t think to google the actor sigh
Three years later I watched Merlin and it took me a season to realize he played Jethro! I was amazed. Colin Morgan. Damn, I love him, and I love Merlin. I’m glad I found the show when I did. This is my favorite kind of coincidence.
From the Doctor Who ‘The Complete History’ vol 59
I also bought Russel T Davis’ book just for the quotes about Colin Morgan. He drools over Colin Morgan just like the rest of us
From ‘The Writer’s Tale’ by Benjamin Cook and Russel T Davies, published in 2008

Merlin rewatch -- S2E2: The Once and Future Queen
" a face of a... bear"
His excuse was actually not that bad XD. He knew a magic beast + a demonstration of knightly behaviour could easily get his father on board. He’s just acting shifty lol. It was good that Uther sat at the far end of the table.
Merlin just couldn't help it xd. He almost knocked over a goblet and Uther just glanced up at him without saying anything. I like this weird tolerance between Merlin and Uther. It's a miracle Uther hadn't gotten rid of Merlin (and Merlin hadn't killed Uther). Why's Merlin serving Uther dinner though? He didn't even have a personal servant?
My favourite. Their silent communication was so cute. Everything was in their faces. A simple and effective show of how much they knew each other and how comfortable they were of being friends. And being young. It's always fun when they were being sneaky in front of Uther (or Gaius). I love Merlin's happy grin at the end! He enjoyed it so much.
Also, why did Arthur have to look like this eating some fruits? I'm dying. 🫠
(sending all the love to whoever decide to shot from this angle)
