The only measurement of how good a Taylor Swift album is, is how well it fits with the little blorbos in your head. Sorry for the angst <3

Concept:
Arthur and his knights and Merlin wake up on an island without knowing how they got there.
The only hint they have is a parchment with a name on it. They have to find that person to get out.
Arthur has to find a guy names Emrys.
Gwaine has to find Dragoon.
Percival the last Dragonlord.
Elyan the king of the druids.
Lancelot has to find the god of magic.
Leon has to find the Dolma.
Etc. Etc .
And Merlin?
Merlin has two tasks: one side says: find Merlin. The other says: run.
Edit: you're welcome :) It's a little bit crack, because I decided to have some fun with the concept. You're welcome. It's a One Shot.
This goes out to: @onceandgayking @unknownthebook @achillesuwu @briefpoetrycollective @captain-sirius-stark
To anyone who wants to use the idea in a more serious way, or any way at all, you are absolutely welcome to do so!!!!
Compilation of the first part of TMA episode Posters.
What is your fave episode out of this lot?
"Magic is evil."
"Well, you see, Arthur, my magic is like your pratness."
"I beg your pardon?"
"You are prat. You were born a prat. You cannot stop being a prat. It can't be helped - it's just part of your nature, and yes, it is annoying to some people, but your friends put up with it because it's you."
"I am a warlock. I was born a warlock. I cannot stop being a warlock. I cannot help it. It's just a part of my nature. Some people think magic is evil, but hopefully...hopefully my friends will put it with it because it's me."
"Your tunes do not bring me joy, Calypso"
"The horse and the infant"
Merthur fanart! Bc i havent drawn them inna while
A Thought:
As Emrys, Merlin is a very powerful sorcerer.
However, his utter lack of any formal training means Merlin is not a very good sorcerer.
The magic he does should be theoretically impossible, but he's got enough raw fucking power to just make it work. Infant demigod smashing blocks together and creating a Lego Death Star.
Merlin: *does magic that Should Not Work*
Other sorcerers:
AND THEY ARE RIGHT TO FEEL UPSET
IMAGINE YOU'RE A SORCERER. YOU'VE BEEN PRACTICING YOUR CRAFT, SHOOTING THE SHIT, LAYING LOW, PLOTTING PLANNING.....THEN THIS FARMY BOY TWINK SHOWS UP AND NUKES THE FUCKING PRIESTESS OF THE LAKE OF AVALON
I'D FEEL PISSED TOO
like, bro, you meet him, you're apprehensive of him bc 'shit that's emrys'. the emrys. the dude that's said to be the greatest sorcerer to ever walk the earth. you meet him. you can feel his magic and like holy shit, what the fuck was that??? you ask him how the fuck he gained so much power by the age of 21????
merlin: you mean....y'all don't also just have magic doing shit when you're a toddler
you, the sorcerer who has had to spend years getting control to fucking heat up a teapot: .........no.......no our magic doesn't do that
goddamn do you wanna just chuck this adult child into the lake and be done with it. better yet, you wish for the sprites to just pick you up and use your body as a sacrifice for entrance into Avalon.
and then, and then
you see how this motherfucker fights against bandits and "WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU JUST PUSHING THEM AWAY??? WHERE'S THE SHOWMANSHIP??? THE PIZZAZZ??? HOW MANY SPELLS DO YOU KNOW???"
merlin, who forgot he can freeze time and space and can launch lightning bolts at people: uh....3???
it takes the triple goddess to restrain you from murking the prophesized warlock right then and there.
"NO, NO, FUCK THAT, FUCK THIS, FUCK ALL O' Y'ALL!" you scream as you jump on a ship and move to a place that doesn't have op young adult children who didn't study shit and yet still get an A+
