#I just had the idea of royal Douxie and everyone underestimating him

[rmg91]

Help! I’m having ideas for a Prince!Douxie AU that I’m not really sure where to go with and I already have 235658468513 ideas! (Okay there’s like....8 main ones but you know what I mean...)

And like I said I’m not really sure where to go with it!

Possibly modern/modern-esk royalty AU? So the whole Arcadia gang is there in some fashion. Douxie would still be Merlin’s adopted son but Gwen and Morgana have also adopted him and Gwen has named him the next heir after her own son therefore alongside magic lessons (because yes magic and such exist here) he also has royal lessons to attend to. He’d also be more like 900 year old Douxie but everyone assumes/underestimates him so he’s a bit like Moppet!Douxie in that way. Until he inevitably does something that makes everyone goes “Oh shit! What?!”

Arthur still hates magic but is a little more lenient towards it cause Gwen is around. Their son, Mordred, would probably be a villain here. Zoe’s captain of some sort of guard/in charge of something for protection (and she and Douxie are in a semi-secret relationship).

The whole Arcadia gang is part of it somehow too, Claire might have a slightly better relationship with Morgana but is still closer to Douxie. Jim might be a chef in the castle that’s good with a sword, Toby might be apprentice to some craftsman, Steve is a knight and Eli...possibly Steve’s squire or a scribe. Aja and Krel may or may not be royals from another human kingdom, depends if I decide if extraterrestrials play a part of not.
