Okay I was just thinking about how like if Arthur did return and everything and like Merlin is just sitting at the edge of the water and all of sudden Arthur who has been gone for over a thousand years just pops out of the water. It scares Merlin and he accidentally teleports himself away from the lake. Has an prompt breakdown to then teleport back and drag Arthur moldy ass back to his place. Then has to go through a power point(he’s been working on it for ages) to explain everything Arthur missed. And then they both are just sitting there looking at each other. Arthur asks Merlin why he teleported away when he came out of the water. And Merlin just is like no no reason at all you prat. And then Arthur’s like I scared you didn’t I with a smirk on his face.
Yeah that’s just what I was thinking about.
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.
