Arthur was frowning. “I think our first order of business should be preparing ourselves for meeting her. It would be ridiculous to walk into a fight with Morgana without training first.”
“What are you going to do?” Merlin asked. “Calisthenics?”
Morgana: I leave lasting impressions.
Arthur: That was a stab wound.
Merlin: Dinner is served.
Arthur: What on earth is that?
Merlin: Crow.
Arthur: Amazing, Merlin's been my manservant for three weeks, and I haven't fired him yet.
Merlin: Amazing, I've been Arthur's manservant for three weeks, and I haven't quit yet.
Merlin: Why have you been ignoring Gwen?
Arthur: I'm playing hard to get
Merlin: Right now, you're playing hard to want
Arthur: Do you ever wonder what life would be like if we'd never met?
Merlin: Yes.
Merlin: Every day.
Arthur: Hey, Merlin, what goes up but never comes down?
Merlin: The amount of stress you cause me.
Arthur was still stuck on Morgana. “So you’re telling me that my sister - the one related to me - helped you - a farmer - get rid of a pest problem?”
“Yes, sir.”
Merlin wondered if he could hire her services.
Gwen: I'm surprised Arthur isn't married yet
Merlin: I'm not
Merlin: If I don't make it, tell Arthur it was all his fault.
Game night: Lancelot and Gwen versus Merlin and Arthur
Arthur: If we lose, I'm cutting you out of my will.
Merlin: I was in your will???
Arthur in modern times trying to get a job: Enigmatic...I think I'm going to put that on my resume.
Merlin: Good idea. You've got to have something on there.
Arthur: My new policy is that if you see something, say something.
Council member: I saw your manservant practicing magic.
Arthur: Shut up.
Arthur: My life has been going pretty smoothly lately.
Arthur: Too smoothly.
Arthur: ...
Arthur: Where's Merlin
Dead Man Drowning
Fill for @merlinmicrofic, no pairings, general, prompt: underwater
Morgana: You tried to kill me and left me to die.
Merlin: I wouldn't have done it if I knew you were going to hassle me about it.
*someone accuses merlin of murder*
Arthur: Merlin? You're saying that Merlin, the wimpiest man I've ever met, killed two people with a fork? I assumed that you'd think of a rational claim before unfairly accusing someone.
Merlin: *wiping blood off the fork* lol yeah what he said
Bro not to be gay or anything but what if we like actually for real no joke ran away to a farm with a cottage and like,, bro, we could totally keep chickens and we would be alone together for the rest of our lives like, platonically ofc but just IMAGINE bro like what if I actually made you do all the work bro, but like, what if afterwards I kissed you and held you and stroked your hair and wrote you poetry and like wait NO WAY BRO, what if we,,, like,,,….. kissed,, with tongue,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, platonically because your my bro hahaha, I love you so much dude like I would literally no joke dream about you and maybe, like, at night when we were sleeping together you would wake up and hear me mumbling your name in my sleep bro, like dude would you bundle me up in blankets and kiss the bridge of my nose or are you a pussy bro haha cmon bro I know you want to hold my hand platonically while gazing into my azure eyes bro haha that would be WILD
I was minding my own goddamn business only to suddenly remember this scene exists
I don't know how to explain it, but it's addressing something so visceral in me.
Like. Did anyone ever expand on how Arthur literally didn't even blink before getting up to save Merlin from the onslaught he would have faced for his outrage? He just got up immediately and took Merlin away, held and handled his anger, and even gave him the respite (visiting Gaius) that he needed.
Wtf. Like boy no you're not supposed to be this fucking in sync with your manservant's reactions. But it's as if he predicted it even, because he saw in Merlin the exact same reaction he wanted to do, but had the tact not to because he grew up with boundaries. So he goes on to save his boy instead.
Sick of how much these two loved each other
I know. I know we don't make jokes about Arthur dying. But can you imagine how fucking confusing it would have been for Arthur?
*Merlin throws people away with magic*
Arthur: I used to throw cups at him every single day. Is this how he takes out his frustration? I'VE CREATED A MONSTER.
*Merlin kills Morgana*
Arthur: What do you mean it's not a mortal blade? I fucking carried this around everyday everywhere. And what do you mean, Merlin, it's burnished in dragon's breath? Which fucking dragon?
*Kilgharrah*
Arthur: Is that a dragon, Merlin? Is that the dragon I supposedly killed? What the hell is going on? And what is that weird voice you were making that called the dragon? Is it weird I got turned on?
But we all know Arthur didn't die. Of course Merlin healed him. He's only the greatest sorcerer to ever walk the Earth after all. And then of course Arthur got Merlin to tell everything he had done. And then obviously Arthur still threw cups at Merlin. But this time, Merlin just stopped them with magic.
