On Christmas morning I open the gift you handed me at the last minute as I was leaving and you got me the perfect thing and I just realized you love me back
“oh no you fell through the ice and now we have to get naked and cuddle to save your life” season

merlin project confirmation (?)
So, Eoin Macken (the actor who plays Sir Gwaine) has just dropped this on twitter.
Some of us are quite excited, obviously.
But what the heck does “a pseudo Merlin project” mean? Lmao.
The fandom trying to decipher be like:

I really should post things at normal hours anyway

Tom Hardy and Riz Ahmed are reading IGN comments and Riz read the comment that said “ Venom vs. Predator vs. Alien “ and Tom’s immediate reactions was to say “GANG BANG” and then make a face of REGRET™
he sure as hell is one of us
Everyone is talking about Tom Hardy’s regret face, but no one is talking about Riz Ahmed’s “you’re absolutely right” face.
When you let out one of your Indoor Thoughts and your best friends agrees
(reincarnated) arthur: a whiskey for me and uh... he’ll have a capri sun
merlin: arthur, i’m over 1000 years old.
merlin: i can order my own capri sun.
Socialists in the 1910s were like, God is real but I hate him very much and when I get to heaven I will unionize the angels
So Merlin fandom. It’s me again. I’ve been thinking there should be a subgenre of canon-divergent fic where Arthur is crowned King and repeals the ban on magic without finding out about Merlin
and the remaining sorcerers and sorceresses all vie for favour from the king, while being very vocal about how they know they’ll never compete with Emrys.
And Arthur (privately) is like Emrys? and starts trying to search him out.
At the same time, Merlin starts sending Arthur tokens as Emrys, probably hoping that if Emrys is playing the game, Arthur won’t single him out
but,
the gifts are really tokens of affection. All other people with magic are giving these dramatic flair that show off their power, and Emrys gives Arthur things Arthur wants or needs or are personal.
And so Arthur now thinks Emrys is omniscient and also maybe courting him
Yknow, it's mighty convenient that the Round Table already had the precise number of chairs they needed in "The Coming of Arthur".
Like, imagine if they show up at the Castle of Ancient Kings and Arthur's prepared his fancy pre-battle speech about equality, but there's only 8 chairs and 9 people. What are you gonna do, make Percival stand? Tell Leon to squat down so it looks like he's sitting in a chair? Let Merlin sit on the the table? Have Lancelot sit in Elyan's lap? Watch Gwaine dangle from the chandelier? Ask Gwen to sit on the floor? Play musical chairs and the one who loses doesn't get to be knighted?
