My Mordred from @llamagirl28 The Bastard of Camelot with her dragon Belladonna and a few keepsakes.

Left to Right-Seashells from the walk with Nimue, the carved dragon from Arthur, Le Fay pendant, and a scale from Scaly.

I'm not going to let go of the musical asks now! So, how would Arthur react if Mordred played a sweet song for him (a kid Mordred)? I'm also curious as to what would Morgana, Accolon, Lancelot and/or Kay would say or do if any of them heard Mordred's performance for Arthur.

Arthur would be so touched! His eyes would get watery and he'd be smiling so much

Morgana... Well I suppose this could be a bit spoilery tho it's probably already obvious what stance she'll have after reading her POV in chapter 3. Basically she'd find it sweet but she doesn't think Arthur deserves Mordred's affection/is afraid Arthur could still end up hurting Mordred.

Lancelot - well he sure doesn't like Mordred and Arthur getting closer, and believes Morgana will take advantage of their proximity, so he doesn't like this at all

Kay - finds it very endearing and cute and is happy for Arthur

Everyone is talking about Gawain serenading Mordred (or them having a duet)... But what if a very shy and reserved yet musically talented Mordred gathered his courage and went on to serenade Galahad?

Galahad would be completely caught off guard... And flustered. Really impressed too.

i am a girl and i find the name Mordred very cool! i like it >:)

I'm happy! 💕 I think it sounds awesome too!

I just noticed how Mordred's name sounds more like "More Dread". I feel like a fool not noticing before but yikes Morgana why name your child something close to that and fuel the fire even more for Merlin's prophecy. Is this some weird play on word just so that Mordred could cause fear in the heart of people. I mean Morgana is already doing that job and sadly Mordred is blamed by association so yep 'more dread' is what Mordred is having to live up to in the citizen's eyes,as a bad omen. (T^T)

Morgana chose the name because to her it sounded strong, powerful and even menacing. Perfect for her child lol. (Personally really like the name too and how harsh it sounds. Really fits with the prophecy and preconceived notions people have of Mordred; whether they live up to the name is up to them)

Mordred🤝Arthur: Hating non-dragon transportation

I love that this is 1 of the things MC has in common with Arthur 🥰

It's one of the little details I love writing!

yiss hello I have a question! How would the ROs in BOC react to an MC who reads out loud to them? I was selectively mute as a kid, so I used to read out loud to help me get used to speaking, (I never shut up now so it worked lol) anyways ty, I'm truly in love with your work! :')

Thank you!

Gawain - if it's a story, he asks to do voices together and have fun

Elaine- enjoys listening to Mordred read to them, probably just stares at them lovingly as they do, play with Mordred's hair

Galahad - enjoys it, makes him smile softly at Mordred, hold their hand

Nimue - has a very soothing voice so she likes to return the favor, taking turns reading

Isac- holds Mordred in their lap as they read, probably distracts them by getting handsy

Sophie - stays in Mordred's lap, listens to them read

Agravain- cuddles with Mordred and if Mordred plays with their hair they're even happier

I ABSOLUTELY suck at cooking no matter how hard I try! I dunno why. So...how would the ROs react to a sweet Mordred you cooked smth for them. The food looks pretty good but the taste?? God will yeet you out of your mortal coil. ^^;

Gawain - tries his best to eat it, makes a show of saying how much he likes it. He can't hurt Mordred's feelings! And they made it with love, so that's what matters.

Elaine - tries her best. She really does. But the moment she bites into it, it shows on her face how awful it tastes. She insists otherwise, but she's not very convincing.

Galahad - stoic face, the only thing that may betray him are his watering eyes. Tries to say something good about it when Mordred asks how it is.

Sophie - tries it and immediately chokes on it. She'll be honest - it's not the best, but she absolutely appreciates it. Maybe just let it to the cooks? Or perhaps she can hire a chef to teach Mordred how to cook.

Nimue - tries her best to keep a calm face, and manages, quickly hiding any grimace with a smile. She suggests they cook together next time. So she can give Mordred some pointers and find out how they managed to cook this.

Isac - takes a bite then tries to distract Mordred with flirting so they forget about the food

Agravain - attempts to compliment them even as it's clear they don't like it, then finally admit it and say they really appreciate it despite the taste

Okay New Headcannon if in a good relationship with Gareth both he and Mordred when younger have either match simple necklaces or lockets of each other. (think more like SpongeBob and Patrick bff lockets) or homemade bracelets that each made for the other. and Gareth either hides in box so Lot wouldn't take it away from him or so he wouldn't lose it, or he wear constantly but its usually hidden on his person (ie: hidden by his clothes or if out acts like its something that just matches his clothes like an accessory)

Sounds so cute 💕

Galahad is gonna get befriended so hard. watch your back knight boy mordred's going to approach you with friendship bracelets in approximately 5 seconds

LOL

Will Galahad apologize or express obvious remorse for his previous treatment of a good Mordred? If so, how would he react if Mordred told him not to worry about it because they were used to being treated that way?

He would apologize, and that would hurt him, realizing what Mordred is going through.

Guileless Son, I’ll shape your belief And you’ll always know that your father’s a thief And you won’t understand the cause of your grief But you’ll always follow the voices beneath
