There's A Stairway To Heaven And A Highway To Hell, But The Midnight Train Goes Anywhere. Trains Are

What is currently killing me about merthur is the whole Merlin fell first but Arthur fell harder. Because if this is true (which I fully believe it is) and Merlin was so so broken over Arthur's death. And waited dutifully and solemnly for 1500+ years. Then just imagine, imagine (!) what Arthur would have done if Merlin died. Broken wouldn't begin to describe it. He would have raged and torn the world apart to bring him back. If Merlin turned dark in s5 trying to prevent the end, then imagine how dark Arthur would become if he lost Merlin. Nothing, I mean nothing would have stopped him from bringing Merlin back.

My favorite thing about Peter Parkedcar is that if you go back to this first movie. Peter (of earth-1610) has the same fricking car in his little spider cave.

RUN NEIL ! YOU'RE BEING CHASED BY WALT WHITMAN ❗❗❗😨😨😨

Okay so random hc I thought of…

So most of the spiders use webslingers meaning they need web fluid. So that they’d have a place to easily get webs Miles makes and decorates little webfluid containers.

I just think this is cute so I though I’d sare!! Also ignore my shit art I can’t draw one bit.

How long do y’all think Merlin just sat on the shore waiting for Arthur to come back? Merlin probably gets so mentally exhausted waiting for him that for some years he just sits. He waits for Arthur cause it’s all he knows how to do.

And it’s like did Arthur feel the lifetimes that when by or was he just in a trance. Did Arthur wait to return, did he know?

i'm curious to know the ratio of writers to readers on ao3 so here's a poll. when i say writer, i mean people who have published works on ao3, doesn't matter if it's once, or if it was ages ago, or if it's a regular occurrence. when i say reader, i mean people who have never published a work on ao3. the reader vote still counts if you don't have an account on ao3. if you're a writer who is also an active reader, please still click on the "writer" option!

please do boost this so it reaches a larger sample space!

Season 1 episode 1 of Merlin is just sad.

The scene after Merlin and Arthur fight(flirt) and they go back to the room Gaius is yelling at Merlin for using his magic in public and Merlin is yelling back that he’s nothing without his magic and then a little later he asks Gaius if his magic made him a monster.

And that just really hit me hard because Merlin for all 5 seasons thought that he might be the monster because he’s seen magic be evil so whose to say his isn’t. And ontop of that he’s living in Camelot so he constantly is see magic user killed and the overall idea of magic as something that needs to remain hidden.

Again and again Merlin saves Arthur using magic and then listen to Arthur thank him for showing him how terrible magic is.

And I love this because for a lot of people this supports the queer allegory as well. Hating something you can’t change because you were born with it.

Idk I’m just rewatching it and that hit.
