The Gayest Meet-cute In History Is S1 Ep1 Of Merlin, When Country Bumpkin Magic Boy Arrives In Camelot

Someone asked me if I was excited for Sunday and I said yes because that's Between Us day, aka best day of the week, but then they kept talking and I realised they meant excited for Christmas which is also this Sunday but not as important

Between Us has not just raised the bar for consent in BL, it has taken the bar out on a date, pulled the chair out, made sure the bar was comfortable, had a wonderful conversation over a few cups of wine then made sure the bar felt safe going home to its new penthouse on the top floor of a skyscraper from because that's how high it's been raised from it's former basement lair.

No, but you don't understand. Arthur looked at Merlin like this:

And like this, too:

Like this, this, this, this, this, this, this and this:

You can see him falling over and over through the seasons.

Everytime I come onto this hellsite and see one of my silly little queer shows trending I do a silly little dance with a silly little smile on my face

I think the best part of KinnPorsche, and it really comes to mind with this latest episode, is that every character thinks they’re in a different genre and it’s the funniest thing watching it clash with the reality.

Kinn is just living his best rom-com life where he falls for his sassy but kind assistant bodyguard that he can no longer live with out.

Porsche is basically a YA novel where he falls for his sexy morally ambiguous love interest who’s secretly sweet but *gasp* his past has come to haunt him!

Pete thinks he’s in a dark psychological thriller where he must battle his inner demons and brooding but hot captor to maintain his humanity but it threatens to over take him at any moment as he is torn between his newly found dark desires and the reputation he prides himself on.

Vegas acts like he’s in gothic bodice ripper novel where his entire world becomes the kind, empathic heroine Pete and he will do anything to keep him to himself and Pete is going to help him overcome the truama of his past with his love.

Kim sees himself in this brooding noir style detective film where he must uncover the dark past of his family but oh no he finds himself falling for the pure and sweet ingénue Chay and must wrestle with the dangerous life he leads and the mission he’s devoted himself to and the love of his life

Porchay thought he’s living his Wattpad dream life where he meets his idol and gains his respect as he tutors him and they slowly develop a sweet friendship that turns into a heartfelt romance

They really demonstrate how all the characters are protagonists of their own story, and that’s how they make their decisions, based on the assumptions on the world around them. They think they know the story their in, and that’s the role they have taken, but the tragedy and the complications of these relationships is that they aren’t in a single genre story. They’re people, achingly human people, interacting with other complex people and what is salvation for one is a damnation for the other.

They aren’t in any specific genre (you know, beyond on the whole mafia thing) and that’s where the miscommunication happens, that’s how the drama unfolds, that’s how all these different romances keep missing each other, because they’re all operating on different wavelengths based on the story they think *THEY’RE* in and not stopping to really consider the other perspective.

It’s absolutely hilarious, it’s terribly tragic, it’s utterly beautiful and performed so well by the writers and the actors.
