arthur (prince of camelot) still has to study under a tutor bc yknow uther wants him to be very intelligent before becoming king or something bc its super important idk idc anyways merlin is doing chores in his chambers while arthur is squinting at a book and merlin eventually caves and asks him what he’s reading and arthur gruffly explains that its a collection of stories from greece that make absolutely no sense so merlin asks him to read them outloud to him. arthur of course teases him and calls him an idiot and asks how he could possibly help but does as he’s asked and reads the stories to merlin as he does his chores. merlin (being crushed under the weight of destiny and tormented by the prophecies that kilgharrah spews) understands the stories almost immediately and gets all excited and starts rambling about them with arthur. arthur is glad to have someone who understands so he can give something that reflects a hint of understanding to his tutor who accepts it and moves onto the next unit of education.
the thing is, arthur finds more stories in camelot’s library and brings them up to his room to read them aloud to merlin under the guise of completing his studies but really he just wants to watch as merlin’s eyes gleam when he understands whats happening and listen to him ramble on and on about them bc he’s gay. the stories stick with merlin though and he realizes that they’re cautionary tales, that the heroes who were told too much of their future doomed themself to fulfill them - that them fighting the prophecies led to their completion. merlin takes it to heart and gives a big “fuck you” to kilgharrah before forging his own fate and helping morgana with her magic and handing out an olive branch to mordred and now everyone can live happily and peacefully in an albion teeming with magic.
Moros Hadesgame II has very strong "I spend all my time gaming in my mom's basement watching people meet their dooms and don't go out at all" energy and I think that's why the Fates had that minor prophecy to summon him. They're kicking him out of the metaphorical basement so he can socialize more.
remember that scene where Silco yells at Jinx for the enforcers being dead and the building blowing up and Jinx gives him the gemstone then hugs him and he smiles because he realizes she’s safe and now they have an advantage?
Narinder and the Lamb when they kill all of Leshy’s disciples and come back with offerings for Narinder
I wonder if he sees himself as tainted that's why he thinks he doesn't deserve to be called Reed. Because being Reed Richards means taking his friends with him in his journey towards the stars. I wonder if he thinks he doesn't deserve his own name because he failed and now they are all gone, and that he can never live up to 616 Reed who is living a happy life with a guaranteed happy future.
I wonder if he chose to keep the name Doom because he saw that he is like him, lonely. I wonder if he chose to keep the name because he hates himself and the Reed Richards who took everything from him.
