*December rolls around*

Tumblr community: “are u okay?”

The Merlin fandom:

“Doing amazing, thank u”

@a-gae-af-racoon and @wiseturtlebluebird :

Allow me to explain in the language of my people on tumblr.

Here you go:

happy 15th anniversary to the gayest first episode in the history of cinema everyone!!

15 years since the first episode of Merlin. ' the Dragon's Call '

happy 15th merlin anniversary to those who still celebrate 🩷

executive dysfunction is inherently funny because it sounds so painfully fake that it wraps back around to being a good excuse. like if i was lying about not being able to do stuff, i would at least be able to come up with something more convincing than "i have not doing stuff syndrome"

Must be batshit insane from Arthurs pov that his useless shabby servant goes "yeah ofc I'll be by your side PROTECTING YOU as I AAALWAYS do" like ngl wouldve LOVED an episode from his pov because we as viewers do write him off as stupid v often but we KNOW MORE THAN HE DOES!!

That said I love both of them, dumbasses<3

I’d have loved to see like a split episode part his POV part Merlin’s to see the discrepancy between what was actually happening and what Arthur *perceived* to be happening. I think it would have been really cool.

I kind of wonder in a way why the two J’s didn’t do that 🤷🏼‍♀️ they played round with a lot of other concepts.

I don’t make the rules

i was ready to accept ‘we are now approaching leeds’ as the screenshot of despair

[ID: two photos of an electronic information sign on a train. In the first it reads “We are now approaching Leeds,” and in the second “where this trains terminates Customers.” End ID]

Well shit, Henry Jenkins, out here in 1997 dropping truth bombs

Oh hey I need this for a research paper I'm writing, thank you!

i mean he had been out here since 1988 dropping such bombs:

Jenkins, Henry. “Star Trek Rerun, Reread, Rewritten: Fan Writing as Textual Poaching.” Critical Studies in Mass Communication 5, no. 2 (1988): 85–107. https://doi.org/10.1080/15295038809366691.  

there are even some earlier works in fan studies but that’s what i have ready to hand. 

Henry's been amazing for a long time.

listen i know you shouldn't judge others based on who they ship but honestly i don't trust people who have watched all five seasons of merlin and do not ship merthur

15 years?????

Colin Morgan speaks about his character in The Killing Kind

Astronaut readjusts to life back on Earth

HE GRABS THE CUP BUT THEN HE DROPS THE PEN 0.0003 SECONDS LATER

AND HE LOOKS UP AT THE CEILING INSTEAD OF AT THE GROUND WHEN HE CAN’T FIND THEM

I CAN’T STOP LAUGHING HE JUST DROPS IT

IT’S NOT FUNNY IT’S VERY LOGICAL THAT HE WOULD HAVE ADJUSTED TO LIVING LIFE WHILE HE WAS IN SPACE BECAUSE IT’S DIFFERENT FROM EARTH BUT I CAN’T FUCKING BREATHE

*THUNK*

i love it so much every time i see it
