What if Merlin wasn’t supposed to be immortal.

We know he can do magic subconsciously, he states that he was making things float around the room before he could talk. He is literally magic incarnate.

What if it was what Kilgarah said that made him immortal. What if Kilgarah was wrong, but since he told Merlin that Arthur was supposed to return Merlin never died. What if Arthur was never supposed return. So Merlin will wait. He will wait until humanity is nothing more than dust buried in the dirt. Arthur will never return, but by telling Merlin that Arthur would, Kilgarah cursed Merlin to wait.

Merlin will never leave, never let go no matter how long has passed. His hope may dwindle as the millennial pass, but it never dies. He stays on the off chance that if he does come back, he will need his servent. Arthur never could last long without him.

So he waits. Never aging. Never letting go. A false hope given by a manipulative old dragon, but…

If he does let go and Arthur comes back only to find him gone…

No, he will wait, by the edge of what was once a lake so many years ago

Merlin Cinderella au 🫣

I’m not good at writing but, I think it would be really cute to have a Cinderella au with everything being the same (setting and Arthur being the prince wise)

It would take place when Merlin just comes to Camelot, and instead of living in the castle, Gauis has a house/healing center in the lower town.

I don’t think the evil stepmother and sisters would come into play. But it would just be Merlin coming to Camelot like in the show and becoming quick friends with people in the kingdom (huge ‘everyone loves Merlin’ believer)

Uthur wants Arthur to marry to continue the bloodline and to secure him as next in line to rule. So he holds a ball for all eligible (noble) suitors in the kingdom (suspended disbelief of Uthurs possible bigotry 💀)

Merlin wants to go cause he thinks it’ll be fun but he can’t since he’s not a noble. He goes looking through Gauis’s old magic books to find a spell to change his appearance and accidentally summons a fairy godmother.

He gets his disguise but it’ll only last till midnight so he makes the most of it and causes as much mischief as possible, when else is he ever gonna get an opportunity to get into the castle and get away with anything he wants with no repercussions? (No one will recognize him 😈)

Arthur is overwhelmed with everyone practically throwing themselves at him so he gets away to the gardens( or something of that sort)

There he spots Merlin setting up a prank or something. He questions what he’s doing and Merlin says something like “are you a snitch?”

Merlin and Arthur proceed to pull pranks on a bunch of the nobles and Arthur has the time of his life for the first time in forever. Merlin doesn’t treat him like the prince, he treats him like just some guy and Arthur loves it.

They settle down back in the gardens with them both in a fit of laughter after their last joke. One of them makes a comment about having not danced the entire night, the overbearing music of the hall muffled but the quiet of the garden they dance together under the moonlight.

Arthur makes a comment about not even knowing Merlin’s name when the bells chime for midnight.

Merlin’s eyes widen like saucers and he takes off, shouting apologies as he goes. And in his rush off his neckerchief snags on one of the flower bushes.

Arthur finds the neckerchief and swears he’ll find that mysterious man again.

Merlin makes it back to Gauis’s hut just in time as the spell wears off and passes out in bed

The next morning there’s a royal decree to find the man danced with the prince and lost his neckerchief getting away

I feel that Arthur would be really determined to find him. And he would know that Merlin was not a noble, no noble would behave the Merlin did.

Arthur would personally go through the whole kingdom, house to house if he had to.

I feel like they would meet again in a really funny way too. Like Merlin would be delivering something for Gauis and they would run into each other like how they met in the show.

As soon as Arthur would hear his snarky comeback he would know that it’s him lol

Arthur would propose to him on the spot with the neckerchief

And they would live snark-ly ever after

Dragoon is Merlin's grampa

so I'm looking for another post that was basically Arthur realizes that Merlin looks like Dragoon because he made a specific face or something while that he smashed his favorite pot and Arthur comes to the conclusion the he's his grandfather and i think that Dolma is his grandmother and is panicking

Subtext this. subtext that. subtext are meant to be less obvious, hidden. Subtle. But a UNICORN came back to live because of Arthur’s LOVE for Merlin. how is that SUBTLE? The Unicorn literally came back to live to declare that them gay, your honour. Very very gay.

Merlin and Arthur communicating without words

“Your just part of a duo “

The duo:

[anevilmanstit]

I'm such a sucker for homoerotic devotion that blurs the lines. Are they gay or are they really good friends that would die for each other? Is there a difference?? and most importantly... Does it matter???

it's the Stu and Billy (scream), it's the Zoro and Luffy (op/opla), it's the entire Merlin character list, it's the Izzie and Ed (ofmd, tho that one's a bit on the nose) that make me screenshot and send to qll my besties to decipher the entangled emotional complexity of the "'I'd kill for you' to 'I'd kill for you and then suck you off' " pipeline

You know your heart is going to be thoroughly beaten up by a fic when in the first couple of tags there is ‘happy ending’

You can’t edit a ship to Gracie Abrams and not expect me to curl up in a ball and SOB

i gotta wish any alien researchers trying to study humans good luck cuz we're so damn predictable, but only to ourselves.

like when i go to tumblr trending and see "twitter" "titanic" and "merlin" trending im like 'yeah that checks out'

but imagine being a nonhuman trying to understand why the hell humans are like this

alien on history/science alien tv channel: it appears the humans are worshiping a being they call "murther," what part must it play in their religion? new research shows it may be responsible for fighting an evil ai called the zucker-musk. more at 8
