[Arthur accompanies Merlin for gathering herbs and sees Merlin slipping over a rock]
Arthur: Merlin you incompetent fool, can't you walk properly
Arthur, after realizing Merlin is actually hurt: SHIT MERLIN WE NEED TO GET YOU BACK TO SAFETY I LOVE YOU SO MUCH I NEED YOU TO STAY ALIVE FOR ME MERLIN PLEASE-
1,500-year-old Merlin explaining technology: I mean really Arthur this isn't rocket science
Newly Revived Arthur who has just learned what a phone is: WHAT. THE. FUCK. IS. A. ROCKET.
Sometimes I get sad that Arthur died...
Then I log onto Ao3 for some✨️h e a l i n g✨️
Wedding vowes
Arthur: I would die for you
Merlin: I would kill for you
Arthur: I would wage wars for you
Merlin: I would kill millions to be with you
Arthur: I would challenge the gods to be with you
Merlin: I would over throw the Gods and become their new ruler just for you
Arthur: I would sacrifice-
The rest of Camelot, whispering: What the actual fuc-

mordred aka #1 merthur shipper telepathically: arthur is looking at your ass
oh, i would love to hear more about the merlin caesar au, that sounds...interesting? honestly, i have no clue what to imagine for this
and most importantly, does it involve stabbing?
Aaahh you absolutely picked my favourite of them all! It was a fleeting idea that came to me two weeks ago (on the ides of march lol) and I wrote it down here pretending I'm a normal human being.
Turns out I'm not. It's an insane idea, and I developed it into an even more insane one.
And YES, of course it involves stabbing.
“I am in debt to you, Merlin, but I will not pay it with forgiveness.”
“You repay me with pain, Arthur— that’s all I've ever known from you.”
+1
“There is no knight who loves Arthur more than I do. I have borne witness to every part of his life, Merlin, and I'm telling you; what he is doing will lead to nothing but destruction. And I cannot love Arthur more than I love his Camelot.”
Is this line based on “Not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more.”? Is the whole fic basically a culmination of my Shakespearean studies? A grand piece of so much love and betrayal? We'll never know.
Istg if taylor swift's new album doesn't go well with my new merthur playlist that I have spent weeks, carefully ordering/listing songs based on my favorite merthur fanfic on ao3, I will have a mental breakdown.
I started watching Merlin under the assumption that I’d get some fun history nerd moments and that Merthur was just another fannon mlm ship with little canonical basis but HOLY SHIT I’ve literally seen cannon straight couples with less sexual tension than whatever the fuck those two had going on.
Huge bbc merlin fan. that's it. that's my entire personality.
