Two Sides Of The Same Coin - Blog Posts

So different and yet complementary.

Okay that’s a really interesting thought but…

The symbol of the pendragon house hold is red supporting as backdrop to the golden dragon. So while your hc makes sense the red (Arthur) doesn’t bleed and cover the gold (Merlin). So, Arthur abd merlin(red and gold) can’t begin the golden age until the dragon lord Merlin (hence the gold dragon in the symbol) has the red background support(Arthur).

I love merlin don’t get me wrong but he simply exists as a way growing Arthur. So while they are two sides of the same coin, yada yada  one cannot exist without the other the hate towards magic, which is represented by the pendragons for the majority of the show cannot exist without magic. Merlin was born with magic. His entire being is magic at its core.  The way I interpret this is the only way we can get the golden age is by excepting the parts that we were taught to hate so for the golden age to happen, Arthur must come to  accept  magic, accept merlins magic. So when this acceptance happens, the golden age has arrived, because the golden dragon meets the red as one. 

I hope that makes sense because it took me forever to figure out how to halfway word it into making sense.

Omg I was just think which I’m sure someone else has said this but…

Yk the color of the Camelot seal are red and gold.

Merlin is always trying to save Arthur using his magic which is gold. Arthur always ends up hurt anyways because he’s an idiot but he bleeds which is red.

So yes two sides of one coin and what not. So when Arthur does Albion or whatever it’s called can’t come to its golden age because the red (Arthur) is gone. Leaving only one part of the great Albion which is the gold (Merlin).

Merlin AU

FEM! OC | Imagine Headcannon

Imagine if Merlin and Arthur knew each other before Season 1. Imagine if Uther, Arthur's father, and Igraine, Arthur's father, were friends with Merlin's parents Balinor and Hunith, before the Great Purge and before Uther band all magic practices. What if when Merlin comes to Camelot and after he saves Arthur he finds out that he and Arthur's parents were once friends and that he was betrothed to Arthur by their parents.

What if Merlin and Arthur became married and were actually in love with one another?

(Arthur is 2 years older than Merlin. In S1 of the show, Merlin is 17 years old and Arthur is 20 years old.)

Merlin came 2 years prior to season 1 and married him.

Merlin was 17 when he married 20-year-old Arthur Pendragon.

They are actually both in love with each other (#merthur). Merlin is still born with magic and is still Emerys. Arthur knows that he has Magic.

Instead of Merlin coming to Camelot in Season 1 it is Elizabeth James (OC). She was born to a Sorceror/Dragon Lord and a farmer's daughter two towns/villages east of the town Merlin grew up in, Ealdor. The town's name was Ambonisa. Gaius is Elizabeth's mother's half-brother, making him her uncle.

*Basically Elizabeth James replaces Merlin as a servant and Merlin replaces Qwenievere as Arthur’s love interest and Queen. (I know Arthur and Gwen don't get together or married till like S3, but I think this is a great story idea. Especially to all the fans of the BBC Merlin series who ship Arthur and Merlin together. I know I certainly ship Arthur and Merlin)*

A/N: The idea for this story came to me while watching Merthur TikTok. I ship Merthur all the way. Best ship in the whole series. Also the GIF images are not mine. Credit to whoever made these GIF's they are amazing
