Sir Lancelot | Merlin

[whumpookies]

The begining of a beautiful friendship..

This I miss 😭

[onceandfuturecabbagehead]

So like I've also just started watching Merlin BBC and after the Lancelot episode in season 1 I went to find a random broom and kind of knighted my friend.

"Rise, Sir Lancelot, Knight of Camelot!"

And yeah my teacher saw me and said that I had many funny people in my class.

[illigrilltrash-blog]

Not gonna lie, I'd commit treason for him too

[sehnsuchts-trunken]

Okay last one for now, but "You feel like home” with Lancelot?

yesyesyes omg

"You're warm", you sighed. "And comfortable. And if you keep running your fingers through my hair I will fall asleep."

Lancelot chuckled lightly, but made no move to stop. "Is that a promise or a threat?"

"Depends. What do you think about carrying me back to Camelot?"

He pressed a kiss to your forehead. "Sounds lovely, but tiring."

You crossed your arms behind his neck and pulled him closer - good thing you'd been lying in just the perfect position to be able to kiss him and still not have to move much. You could just pull him down with you right now if you wanted-

"What are you doing?", you muttered as he slipped out of your grasp and instead lifted your chin with his thumb.

"You're amazing", he whispered. You laughed.

"Says Sir Perfect."

"I'm being honest. You're amazing, I don't tell you that enough, you're cunning and brave and you make me feel wonderful and-"

You interrupted him with a kiss.

"You make me feel like I'm finally home", you said, smiling at him and running your hand through his hair. "Nobody has ever made me feel like that."

#99 - GIMME THE ANGST. With Gwaine and Lancelot (who the reader ends up with is your call !!) She is v close with both of them but only one relationship is..intimate. and the other is brotherly. But Gwaine/Lancelot doesn’t realize that 😅 PLUS #8, #31 (obviously), andddd #72??

I can try my best💖 We all know my feelings on Gwaine, so we can guess where this is going😂

*Maybe a bit of angst*

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Only One

You wonder why your heart did it; made a love that can’t be shared between two men you cared for deeply.

#8 “Why are you crying?”

#31 “I’m not jealous.”

#72 “Did you just… wait, you love me?”

#99 “It kills me to think about you having a life with someone else.”

You never thought that two men could possibly pine over you so much. I mean, Gwaine was an obvious flirt, but Lancelot was also rather charming. These men have managed to worm their way into your heart, but you knew that you couldn’t have both.

There was only room for one.

However, you cared for both Gwaine and Lancelot deeply. How could you possibly just pick one? In the end, you decided to just do nothing. You would let this play out until your emotions made the choice for you.

It was not easy.

Things started with a banquet in honor of a tournament that was going to be held. There was dancing, food, wine, you name it. Several of the guests were out dancing, and you were one of them.

You were in the arms of Sir Gwaine, with a very peeved Lancelot watching from the sidelines.

“Wish that was you?” Merlin asked in a teasing manner when he noticed Lancelot watching the two of you with his arms crossed.

“Why would I want to dance with Gwaine?” The knight asked back in an irritated manner, causing the sorcerer to smile.

“So, you are jealous?” Merlin pushed again.

“I’m not jealous.” Lancelot answered rather quickly, giving Merlin the answer. He was all too aware of the rivalry going on between Gwaine and Lancelot.

“Right.” The servant said with raised brows before deciding to leave Lancelot in peace. After a quick glare, the ever-loyal knight continued to watch you dance in the arms of someone else.

Meanwhile, you were conversing with Gwaine while he danced with you.

“I didn’t think you could dance, Gwaine.” You pointed out, and he faked an offended look.

“Well now, is that how you speak to such a good friend?” Gwaine emphasized that word in order to prove his point. He’s been by your side for as long as Lancelot has, but of course he thinks he’s he better man.

“I guess not.” You said with a slight laugh, changing the mood and causing Gwaine to frown.

“You know Y/N...you are quite a lovely woman.” He said to you in a serious manner. That charming grin didn’t adorn his face like usual, making you blush a bit.

“Thank you...” You said, your voice barely above a whisper. The two of you continued to dance for a while before he sighed, bringing up something that actually got him flustered.

“It kills me to think about you having a life with someone else.” He admitted, causing you to feel both a bit guilty and flustered. Gwaine must know that Lancelot wants you as well. However, this right now was a confession from Gwaine. 

“I’m sorry Gwaine...I need time to think...” You said with a couple of tears brimming your eyes. He nodded in understanding, but you could tell that he felt a bit saddened. You were as well though.

Because, well, you did love him dearly.

But you didn’t want to hurt Lancelot.

The very thought of it left you torn one night. You were sitting in one of the corridors, staring out at the night sky. The moon was full\ and making things all bright. However, that was the opposite of how you were feeling. There were tears streaming down your face, but you were hiding your sobs rather well.

All of this was too much for you. Lancelot and Gwaine. Holding love for both, but only being able to be with one. The worst part being that you loved Gwaine more, in an intimate way. Lancelot was still close to you, but in a brotherly type of way. You just couldn’t picture anything else.

But he didn’t know that. 

“Why are you crying?” A certain familiar voice, but one you weren’t ready to hear, came from behind you. You slowly turned around to see Lancelot giving you a concerned look.

“I...I’m just going through some stuff...” Was all you could confess to him as you wiped at your eyes. The knight slowly walked over and placed a hand on your shoulder. It was meant to be a loving gesture, but you could only get an older brother vibe from it.

“Anything I can help with?” He asked in a polite manner, smiling to try and make you feel better. However, it only made you feel worse.

“I...I don’t think so...” You mumbled while wiping at your eyes again. Seeing as words weren’t working for you right now, Lancelot furthered his arm around your shoulders. The touch was becoming too much for you, and against what your heart was telling you, you pulled away. 

“I-I’m sorry...so sorry...” You cried while giving him a pitiful look before fleeing the scene. Lancelot just stood there, confused by what he did to make you more upset.

What were you sorry for?

You were now back in your room, still crying from the episode that just occurred. Your bed was comfortable, but it held no warmth when it came to how you were feeling. 

A sudden knock on your door made you freeze.

“Y/N...are you alright?” Who you thought was Lancelot turned out to be Gwaine. After a couple seconds, you heard him announce that he was coming in. When you looked up, you saw that the knight was out of his uniform.

He looked so normal and approachable.

“What’s wrong?” Gwaine asked in a gentle tone, hesitantly sitting beside you. Your lip quivered a bit at that because Lancelot had asked you the same thing. That, and the problem was still the same. You couldn’t stop yourself from leaning into him.

“It’s just so hard...I love you, but...” You couldn’t believe what you just said because you thought you said it in your head. However, the look on his face told you that you voiced your thoughts.

“Did you just… wait, you love me?” Gwaine’s voice was soft, shocked, like he couldn’t believe what you just confessed to him. I mean, you couldn’t believe it either, but you cried when you heard him ask the question.

“Y-Yes...but Lancelot...” That’s all you needed to say before he put his arms around you. 

While Gwaine was glad he was the one to win your heart, he felt for sympathy for his brother in arms. The knight couldn’t imagine you with someone who wasn’t him, so he imagined Lancelot felt the same.

“He’ll understand. I’m sure of it.” Gwaine tried to reassure you, but you still seemed a bit upset about this.

“I see him like...like a brother...I don’t want to hurt him.” You confessed to Gwaine, who merely rubbed your shoulder before gently resting his forehead against yours in a comforting manner.

You knew it was the right thing to do instead of leading Lancelot on. A little pain now is better than a lot of pain later. Plus, he was right. Lancelot is an understanding and caring man, so you hoped he wouldn’t let this get to him. He could have any woman he wanted.

“I guess...I’ll have to tell him...just not now.” You sniffled before hugging Gwaine more, finding comfort in his embrace. However, little did you know that you wouldn’t have to worry about telling Lancelot anything.

He was eavesdropping on the whole thing.

*merlins magic gets exposed in front of the knights*

merlin, magic user: oh fuck

arthur, finally taking this opportunity to pretend as if he just found out merlin has magic after agonizing for the past month on how to bring it up: you have magic?

lancelot, merlin defender, already knew of merlin’s magic: no! i have magic

gwaine, merlin defender, already knew of merlin’s magic, lover of chaos, ride or die: no, i have magic!

mordred, desperate for his hero’s approval bc no matter what he’s done emrys just stares at him with distrust and the poor boy is tired and so close to tears: no…i have magic.

percival, raised by druids and bonded strongly with mordred over that and does Not agree with the persecution of magic in camelot, had an inkling that merlin had magic but no proof: no. i have magic.

*leon and elyan exchange a look, elyan, amused and leon, exhausted, elyan shrugs*

elyan, knows how much gwen adores merlin and completely understands her stance bc merlin…is merlin, down to clown and put on a show, really playing up the dramatics: no! i have magic.

leon, exhausted, has known of merlin’s magic since he stepped foot in camelot, knows of his feelings for arthur and arthur’s feelings for him, knows arthur knows of merlin’s magic and wouldn’t harm him, thinks everyone is being absolutely ridiculous:

*the knights stare hard at leon and even merlin looks slightly offended at leon not jumping to his defense with the rest of the knights, arthur hasn’t said anything and is staring at leon expectantly*

leon, sighing: …no. i have magic.

Magical orb that puts a crime count on everyone's head (while Arthur is king), counting the crimes based on the established laws. (Crime count in brackets)

Gwaine (127): this is an outrage

Arthur(3): I am as distraught as you

Gwaine (127): no, no. You don't get to say that! I've worked my whole life on this crime count and I've got less than THEM?

Merlin (847): *crosses arms* protecting Arthur comes with a cost. What I don't get.... Is THIS!!!!

Merlin: Plane tickets?

Gwaine: Concert tickets?

Arthur: Prostitution?

Lancelot, holding their broken frames: Glasses.

[tiredcowboyy]

I always find the posts/fics where leons just so over witnessing merthur pining so funny. Like that man really had to see them from the start and the tension between them grow and he just had to sit and watch. Like I imagine every time a new knight joined they all brought the weird vibes up and leon each time was more and more over it.

Like it stared w lance early on being like

Lance: hey leon, is it just me or are arthur and merlin lowkey pining for each other

Leon: oh thank god! Someone finally brought it up, yeah theyve been like this for a while-

But then ended up as

Percy talking to the knights as they watch merlin and arthur bicker (read: flirt): ok but, does it seem like theyre fli-

Gwaine, sounding exhausted: yeah theyve been like this for a while

Percy: really? And theyve still not done anything about it?

Leon the long suffering, whose now had to watch them for almost 10 years: *eye twitch* nope.

Edit: just gonna leave these screenshots here

[that-nerd-who-writes-fanfiction]

Lancelot: Wow, you're so brave! You didn't even hesitate to throw yourself in danger.

Merlin: That's because I have no regard for my own personal safety. You can ask Arthur.

Arthur: I have never been more stressed in my entire life.
