Wings uncut

#been rewatching hp #thinking about what a kind kid harry is early on; full of cheek and curiosity #in my memory Harry’s amazement for the magical world comes to a stop after the 5th book #he’s not teaching and rethinking magic anymore #after the incredible toll of sacrifice he faces its not strange #I would love to see a harry that finds his love for magic again #and start to find more meaning in magic beyond battle and defense #anyways #Harry Potter #hp fanart #hp #harry james potter #harry potter and the sorcerer's stone

I must admit, one year in the BBC Merlin fandom, read an unimaginable amount of fanfictions, from the most known one to the least known one, all with different ratings, canon and modern, yet, I still haven’t read, not one single fanfiction, where the author really can catch and actually portrays Arthur’s reaction to magic and to Merlin having magic like it happened in the tv show.

Like, that’s what I was missing and I realised just now. I dislike canon fics with magic, because no one can make Arthur in character and portray him like in the show and write how genuinely Arthur would react to Merlin’s magic. Either they go all over and paint Arthur as this absurd king that tortures his friend of ten years to get information from him or something or they write Arthur like a) he always knew or b) now he knows but it’s not a bother.

I want the middle ground and I want it portrayed well, like in the show. I want more of scared Arthur, but confused Arthur. I want him in the same situation he was as he was dying but actually showing me what he wanted to do if he lived. I want Arthur come back fics with him going insane because he can’t understand if he can trust Merlin or not (yes. To me it’s realistic, because everyone has their own theory as to what Arthur knows or not, but it’s Merlin who waited centuries, not Arthur. For him, it all happened yesterday).

Give me that, please.

Also, I dislike when people say “it’s unrealistic for Arthur not to know” that’s the way the character has been written😭that’s what makes Arthur Arthur, the fact that is an intelligent idiot, but that he is scared of feelings and of going through with them and has this bunch of things and responsibilities in his hands and has no idea what the fuck he’s supposed to do with them, same with magic.

That’s what ‘in character’ means.

#hell this is coming from someone who has wrote some out of character things about merthur #this is not accusing #this is just me wanting to fulfill my curiosity #i want to see arthur reacting to magic in fics IN A REALISTIC ARTHUR WAY #and also about the gay thing in modern times #look fics that are not with this much angst are FINE #i’m not saying that we should all read realistic things #but it would be a nice change to actually see how a man from the middle ages comes back to the twenty first century and actually goes #‘what the fuck’#you know?#merthur #bbc merlin #merlin #arthur pendragon #merlin bbc #ao3 #ao3 fanfic #merlin fanfic

In her dark dreams, the cabinet of her mansion took on bizarre shapes. There were books on the table, keeping dark ancient knowledge about distant spaces, strange elixirs were stored in flasks, a candle smoked in an ancient lamp, as a reminder from past dreams... And only the drawing in a silver frame, created once by her hand, in ink on a pale sheet of paper, did not give her peace of mind. Such a vague and warm feeling arose somewhere in the depths, and memories from past lives, from distant childhood, illuminated by the scarlet evening light under the shade of old oaks and lindens, the walls of the estate, entwined with wild grapes, floated like moths before her eyes...

Her saying stay with me to Ambessa 😭

#mel medarda #so sorry i am still in my mel era #also still loving jayce #calling out vi for accepting cop badge #her artist side with hwei #hoped Viktor was more than someone with god complex and disappointed #with lux light girlies synergy #Leblanc sister taunt #her little jokes and lame puns #super ate welcome back mel #league of legends #arcane #also newly found confidence on herself and her coming to terms and her leadership side #and her being not caring about ambessas judgement anymore #and and her curiosity about her own magic and testing it and being still forgiving and peaceful and benevolent first but not naive #Youtube

I am once again thinking about how much fun it would be if the Hells reached level 15...but then Predathos was no longer in the picture and Imogen couldn't continue along the sorcerer track. And she took her last 5 levels as a college of eloquence bard instead. This is one of my favorite mind palaces to lounge in. Do you KNOW how scary a liar she would be. DO YOU EVEN KNOW. ESPECIALLY if she was allowed to take Gift of Gaslight Gab. SHE COULD TAKE EXPERTISE IN DECEPTION AND ALSO HAVE SILVER TONGUE SHE WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GET UNDER A 27 ON DECEPTION-

Anyway.

(maybe I've made a character sheet about it https://www.dndbeyond.com/characters/104065189/mFf8cG)

(play with me in this space)

(I just want her to go from harming herself constantly to being able to heal the people she loves)

(and also to get vicious mockery oh my GOD would that be hot shut up ok)

#imogen temult #critical role #I gave her expertise in arcana because I as imagining her in a post predathos world following her curiosity into studying magic voraciously #still wanting to understand #sidenote i dunno who else has been looking a bit at MCDM's new The Talent class but jesus christ is that Imogen coded

Do you know One of the many Merlin's random facts that wake me up at 3 am?

Enmyria.

Why do you make her stand out (For its aesthetics and position in the context), give her a line, EVEN A NAME, Just to kill her in such a disposable way?

I mean, it doesn't affect or impress at all.

But it's funny to go to so much trouble for someone who was perhaps supposed to be more than just an extra, isn't it?
