merlin being forced to confront the fact that he’s failing his people bc he’s sitting idly by while uther slaughters them all and coming to the decision that he has to act to save them but that’ll make him camelot enemy no. 1 but technically he already was they just didn’t know it. merlin spending a week all morose but unwilling to talk about it and spending as much time with his friends as possible. on his last night in camelot, he goes to arthur’s chambers and the prince is confused on why he’s there. merlin drops a sealed letter on his desk before pulling arthur into a gentle and emotional kiss. they barely separate, their lips hardly a breath apart, and merlin asks for forgiveness. arthur, thinking he’s apologizing for the kiss, tells him there’s nothing to forgive and goes in for a second kiss but merlin pulls away, knowing that that one brief kiss was all he could handle. if he lets arthur kiss him the way he’s dreamt of being kissed, he won’t be able to do what he needs to do, he won’t be able to leave. merlin tells him good night and leaves before arthur can react. he’s gone by dawn.

oh. bad told - i dont remember who. Bagi or tina. one of the wlw he tells everything to. he told them that he feels like the only one who can protect the eggs.

bad thinks he’s the only one who will save the eggs, who will do whatever it takes to get them back. thus, the only one who can get them back. it’s no wonder he doesn’t care about making allies in purgatory- he didn’t think he could ask for help before. why would he think that now?

keith: whoa you built that? that's really cool. (sheepishly, but also selling himself short honestly) the only things i know how to build are pipe bombs

"Eugh-!!!!"

"Let me expound a tidbit of advice to those of lesser birth — if a royal approaches you and claims that they are not like the rest of their peers due to the fact that they loathe royalty and prefer the company of those without a title to their name, then they are lying to you. They have been lying to you. Anyone with half a notion of sense to them would be able to see such, but as none of you are quite so experienced in the matters of royalty as us, you keep falling for it.

The truth is that every royal loathes the company of their fellow nobles and prefers the company of the lesser-born. Each and every one of them has and will seek to fill the space around themselves with the companionship of those who possess no title, no claim to noble birth, nothing which they could cling to power with. Each and every one of them will posses the bare minimum number of companions with a position similar to their own, and none will tolerate the presence of a title higher than their own if they are not lying about their intentions in the first place.

Kindly think for a moment. I understand this is a tall order, but it really is very simple.

To pass your time with your fellow nobility means that they will be thinking about their position, their duties, their obligations. They do, in fact, have their own motivations, as much as you have your own. And it is a very large risk, should your motivations ever misalign, or if one or the other lies, or if there is some other issue which arises.

There is none of that with the commonfolk. They possess no power over the royals. There is no risk with them. There is no need to guarantee proper behavior. Who would they even contact, if they wanted to use this as blackmail? You can dispose of them as easily as the tide washing away sand if you really need to, or if it entertains you, neither of which is possible with the nobility. You can do whatever you want with them.

Oh yes, I do not doubt you consider them your friends. It can be quite easy to impress, dressing up one of the powerless as special or unique because they have caught your attention. Certainly this lack of danger in every form means that any noble who does does not have to worry about dressing up their own emotions, or behavior, or feelings. It is so very quaint, to have someone to air all your woes to, knowing that this information is useless to them.

And, of course, I am certain that your new royal says that you are special. There is some special connection, some unique relationship the two of you have. I do not doubt that. Assuredly, they will never speak about those who came before you, or what they did with the bodies afterwards. Maybe they might tell you how they used to like someone like you before, and they broke their heart, and how essential your secrecy of this preference-for-the-commoner is. They like it when you are quiet. If you are too loud, then the other royals might hear, and then they might be inspired to do something with this information!

Are you understanding yet? You are disposable. They have all the power and influence and command to dangle over your head, and they prefer it that way. All royals prefer it that way. None of them are special for it. None of them are better than any other for it. If anything, they are far worse. They are taking advantage of you in your powerlessness, and expecting you to thank them for it."

ive been trying for 30 mins to write a post about why the Web's plan is still confusing, but I think I should face the truth and admit to myself that it's not that it makes no sense, it's just... so convoluted

[restrainedhungr]

things that will make Briar pouty @ you about: - being told she cant eat someone - being told shes not allowed to go into a place she wants to go - Being forced to wear "fancy" clothing - Friends+Family dying - Cutting her open/Experimenting on her/Dissecting her

Things that will make briar genuinely angry: - Screaming the same thing over and over and over again - Being boring

Things that will make briar Eat you/view you as food: - Accepting friendship, and then abandoning her - Attacking her - Rejecting her friendship

Things that will make Briar genuinely *sad* or upset: - . . . . There isn't really anything tbh

Clipping her wings

my thoughts on ddd basically boil down to "great game! kill the story with fire and sticks." which i think is about the coldest take ever. do not get me started on how nobodies having hearts is a dumbfuck plot twist i am so full of rage over that.
