Uhhh au where Merlin glamours aithusa in to a big white dog that he just has now. He convinces Arthur to let him keep it bc it’s “stupid luck won’t keep the bandits from clobbering me over the head forever y’know” which accidentally touches on a secret fear of that exact thing happening that Arthur complies easier than expected.

It maaaay be a bit difficult to explain why the dog occasionally coughs up soot but like,, don worry bout it

Aithusa is the biggest welsh sheepdog Arthur has EVER SEEN like she’s l a r g e. He doesn’t think he’s ever seen one that completely white and wonders how exactly Merlin of all people stumbled upon such a beauty.

The knights have been on a few excursions with her and by gods does she do her job well. During one of the extraordinarily frequent bandit attacks they witnessed this dog absolutely BODY a guy and maul his sword hand to shreds, blood dripping from her muzzle onto her white fur she truly looked like a beast. Merlin made a good effort in cleaning it off- admonishing her for messy habits n whatnot

During mealtimes she targets the weaker willed knights and bullies them into surrendering their scraps. Lancelot in particular seems to have an enduring softness for her, letting her yoink larger portions of his meat directly from his plate. She seriously seems to eat several times her weight in stolen treats it’s a problem.

This dog is FAR TOO COMFORTABLE NEAR FLAMES. poor Gwen almost had a heartattck seeing her stick her face DIRECTLY INTO THE FIREPLACE OH MY GOODNESS Gwen is frantically patting Aithusa’s face with a damp cloth hiding the soot stains from Merlin

Merlin holding up Aithusia: this is my daughter

Arthur: where the hell did you get that

Merlin: hatched her out of n egg.

Arthur: gods, fine- don’t tell me. I feel like I don’t want to know anyways.

@ln-ofx lol

Aithusa also “barks” in dragon tongue, like just absolute eldritch horror noises out of this fur monster, and the knights are so fucking chill at this point they’re just like “haha I wonder what she’s saying.”

Merlin of course has an answer to this and starts casually translating how Aithusa is going off in depth about how Arthur wouldn’t share his breakfast sausages that morning after she gently approached him and didn’t even cough soot on him this time.

Arthur is defending his honor like “of COURSE I didn’t reward her, she may have approached me gently but she CAME IN THROUGH THE WINDOW, MERLIN-”

Merlin is fighting with Arthur for thinking his fur child isn’t talented enough to hop through a like five story window.

Arthur is clinging to his sanity like it’s the too short rope from 2.08.

The knight squad is fucking ready to defend their talented fur niece and her sausage needs to the death.

Gwaine is saying he’s seen a collie jump higher.

The only person not all out feuding is Lancelot and that’s just because he’s deadass full body tackling Aithusa when she’s about to switch to dragging Arthur in English.

Further evidence

In the second Sonic movie, he refers to him self as ‘hedgehog of the house’ in Tom’s absence instead of ‘man of the house’ further implying his gender is hedgehog

not "he" as in "he/him" but "he" as in "hedgehog"

once again, i am thinking about how they're literally the funniest people alive:

in the face of serious situations, what do they have? JOKES

only just about a singular braincell between them and it's mostly used for comedy (not that i'm complaining)

warbler season! my collection with Bird Collective is up!

There is another way

By the Nine, keep your whore mouth shut

Pretty sure the other way involves keeping your whore mouth open

disgusts me deeply to say it but 30 dollars is basically the new 20 dollars

talking to people while holding a beverage is awesome because you don't have to know what to do with your hands and when you don't know what to do with your face you can just take a sip
