Honestly One Of My Biggest Upsets In BBC Merlin Is That We Didn’t Get A Third Situation Where Gaius

Honestly one of my biggest upsets in BBC Merlin is that we didn’t get a third situation where Gaius had to make up another weird ass sorcerer for Merlin to be. Like he already struggled hardcore to come up with the woman concept, I can just imagine Gaius - the OG ratchet - being like “not to worry Sire, I know another sorcerer known for their...great height. They’re...10 feet tall, Sire.” And Merlin is just standing there like ‘well here we fucking go.’

Gaius fully intends for Merlin to use a spell to reach that height but Merlin and his ratchet little heart is like ‘I only need to get myself a few feet higher, tbh how hard could stilts be.’ Merlin then proceeds to teeter fucking EVERYWHERE in his endearingly shitty disguise and knock over EVERYTHING the entire episode like:

He comes up with increasingly more ludicrous reasons why he must always lean against a surface. One of those surfaces is Arthur, who tells him surely he’d remember if they’d met in the past but his eyes are just so familiar.

Merlin has regrets.

Leaning against Arthur isn’t one of them.

“While I am enjoying this exchange of pleasantries,“ Gabriel said, seeing that Henry was about to respond, "there do remain a few - central - questions about this invention.” Henry looked at him blankly. “Such as what?” “I believe, Henry, that he is inquiring whether this…doorway-” Charlotte began. “We’ve called it a Portal,” said Henry. The capitalization of the word was very clear in his tone. “Whether it works,” Charlotte finished. “Have you tried it?” Henry looked stricken. “Well, no. There hasn’t been time. But I assure you, our calculations are faultless.” Everyone but Henry and Magnus looked at the Portal with refreshed alarm. “Henry…,” Charlotte began. “Well, I think Henry and Magnus should go first,” Gabriel said. “They invented the blasted thing.” Everyone turned on him. “It’s like he’s replaced Will,” said Ggideon, eyebrows up. “They say all the same sort of things.”

Dear friends of Tumblr,

Today at my school we had an assembly about internet predators and when I had said that most of my true friends are over the internet and they gave me a lecture about how “I don’t know who I’m talking to” blah blah. So please, if you aren’t a predator in any way, please reblog so i can prove a point.
