Would it be enough if I could never give you peace?
For @forever-rewatching-merlin who made me cry over my most favourite merlin fic for the hundredth time.
Die For You In Secret by @emrysofmagic - In which Merlin and Lancelot start sleeping together at the end of season three, Arthur notices, Gwaine is all too perceptive, and Merlin realizes that the heart’s capacity for love is greater than he ever could have imagined.
And the worst part is none of them got a happy ending
Dark Sonnet - Neil Gaiman
take me as i am and i will take you as you are.
to my most beloved,
where do i even begin? words cannot describe the place you have in my heart and what you truly mean to me. i’m not sure how i ever survived a time where you weren’t in my life, it’s simply not possible anymore. you are an incredible light in my life, my reason to keep going, my biggest supporter, and dare i say the actual love of my life. you are the sun to my moon, the merlin to my arthur, the heart to my soul. thank you for choosing me and blessing me with your gorgeous self. i’m not sure how i got so lucky to be blessed with you.
i love you endlessly, happy anniversary @bellamyblakru <3

every once in a while, I remember that merlin and lancelot will never look at each other like this ever again.
but it's okay because I imagine lancelot being merlin's own personal jiminy cricket and that tends to get me through my random crying spells
Merlin, *walks into a round table meeting and passes out on the table*
Merlin: I swear to the gods, if the prat doesn’t stop destroying his rooms every time he can’t find me
Arthur: I can hear you, and it serves you right for spending four whole days in the tavern.
Merlin, *crying in frustration and having not slept in four days*
Lancelot, *casually pets Merlin’s hair, earning glares from Arthur*
Morgana, *laughing into a scrying pool*
Mordred: the tavern? I thought he was fighting Morgana after she sent that beast to kill Arthur
Merlin, muffled by the table: shut the fuck up, Mordred.
and the fandom will call them “besties” (they’re married)

gods, i'd worship the ground
where you caressed the earth
and quietly screamed out my name
on my burning pyre of a grave
this is my prayer of repentence to you
if i'd screamed, it'd never be enough
to encompass the grief, the longing,
the pain of your darkness
gods, why did they take you away from me ?
why did you walk away from me?

What is grief, if not love preserving💔
Merlin and grief
"Grief, I have learnt, is really just love. It's all the love you want to give but cannot. All of that unspent love gathers up in the corners if your eyes, in the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go."
- Jamie Anderson
Merlin: God, if only someone loved me… Arthur: standing behind them with a wedding ring roses Freya: holding box of chocolates Gwaine: has balloons Gwen: holding out a flower crown Mordred: has a card Morgana: bringing him special books Lance: literally just dropped everything he was doing because Merlin needed help carrying things Gaius: facepalms This is sad.
– Langston Hughes, "Poem"
Mercelot fake dating/friends to lovers AU but they’re never actually fake dating it just has that effect when everyone automatically accepts it and doesn’t think to ask because Merlin and Lancelot have always been a pair when they’re together.
Arthur gets a little jealous of Merlin’s time but they still hang out like before so he’s fine once he realises a relationship doesn’t mean he’s loosing his best friend. Gwen is slightly confused because she always assumed Merlin had a crush on Arthur but he’s absolutely smitten with Lance and now she looks back, they really were always good friends and Merlin set her and Arthur up so that couldn’t be right. She tries talking to him about it, he bursts out laughing when she mentions a crush on Arthur and tells her he just loves them both and wants them to be happy together because they’re both his friends. Then she tells him she’s glad he’s happy too, looking at Lancelot but Merlin completely misses it.
Merlin and Lancelot went to a feast together once, not necessarily as a couple but just to go together because they’re friends and they love each other. Everyone assumes they’re dating, and they act like a couple, and eventually when they’re sat reading magic books in Gaius’ chambers together, Lancelot looks up and casually asks “Would you be upset if I fell in love with you?”
Merlin shakes his head then frowns and looks up, staring at Lancelot for a few seconds until his eyes blow wide and he realises. Then he smiles awkwardly and asks “would you be mad if I just realised I’m already in love with you and probably have been for a while without really thinking about it because I’ve never needed to question my relationship with you?”
And Lance is just like “oh good, I didn’t realise or think about it either until one of the druids asked how long we’ve been married.”
Then they start dating for real, nervously announcing it to a very confused round table where everyone’s just like “We know. You weren’t already? Alright. Congrats, good for you.”
Nothing changes, and they get teased relentlessly for not realising they’re been practically married for years without realising it.
where is the one I love?
Mine too😭
