I fucking love the idea of Astarion helping Gale realize how incredibly fucked Mystra is. Cause of all people, the spawn shunned by the gods despite his desperate prayers, would understand the pain that comes with a goddess you thought you could trust turning her back on you. Cause what Mystra asks if Gale under the guise of “forgiveness” is insane and really shows how she doesn’t love Gale the way he so clearly loved her. Just two traumatized boys finding love and growth with each other <3
we need to talk about why I watched Merlin because of one video
I THOUGHT THEY WERE TOGETHER?!!??? because I thought, “oh, servant x boss/employer trope COUNT ME IN!!!” and then I found out halfway thru the show that they’re just “friends” AND I SAID “well that can’t be true, I thought they would be together that’s the reason I watched the show?!??” I mean, eventually they would be together right? THEY SHOULD BE TOGETHER!!
There is just something about Arthur’s voice…the “emergency-ness” at Arthur’s voice, like he needs Merlin at by his side AT ALL TIMES. like he cannot breathe when Merlin’s not by his side?? and the lingering eyes?!? the heart eyes they give to each other??!! and also the fact that THEY ARE DESTINED WITH EACHOTHER, to eachother?! TELL ME THAT’S ALL PLATONIC?!??
when theo said 'if shilo is your brother he's mine too' he didn't mean it like him and emizel are brothers he meant it like shilo is his brother IN LAW because theo and emizel are married
