“Dude, of course you’re having rage moments, have you like, ever gone back to the Zone after you got revived? Or at least like, found a familiar to take the edge off all that excess ecto of yours?”
“... what.”
“I’ll take that as a no, come on. My Dad can open a portal and we can find you a friend if you’re gonna’ insist on being in the living world!”
To keep yourself alive AND stay sane you need an internal Senshi AND a Sam Vimes.
Senshi is there to remind you to eat, but Sam Vimes is there to parry your extended relatives rancid political takes at family events and keep you from going insane
Gwaine is absolutely choosing Merlin over Arthur in any scenario, “treasonous” or not. Like, Gwaine wasn’t even choosing between the two of them in the Perilous Lands and he was still like “I just want you to know that I’m here for you, not him.” Gaius was literally accused of sorcery and high treason but Gwaine still showed for Merlin and trusted his every word despite the apparent evidence. This man is ride or die for Merlin and you have to respect it. You have to or I’m stealing all your Halloween candy.
