I've been madly in love with your picspams for a while now, but this week the part I like the best is NOT actually the slo-mo rehashing of every adorable face Merlin makes throughout the entire episode--don't get me wrong, he's still as pretty as ever, and I totally appreciate your appreciation of that, but this week I'm all about the meta-rants
( ... )
Thank you, I'm so glad you liked it, hon! #SMISHES# ^___^
This show is, by nature, ridiculous, so we're willing to accept a lot of cheesy, unbelievable things from it, but sometimes the writers do something so enormously stupid that you just have to say, "Um, WTF are you doing there?"
I was hoping no one would get turned-off my the sudden srs bzns moments in this episode reaction (WHY ARE YOU THINKING THINKY-THOUGHTS ALL OF A SUDDEN? I DEMAND A REFUND, ITEM WAS NOT AS DESCRIBED!!), so I'm really pleased that you liked those parts and have furthered the discussion in your comment. <333

Oh M Geee ahahaha Arthur and Gwen's faces when the witchfinder said it was Merlin! *stankk face* "Like wtf is this trick talking about" ahaahahaha
IDEK how Merlin has managed to survive this long. How many times has he been accused/suspected of being a sorcerer now? And NOBODY cares to know why that is?
Oh and crying!Merlin is pretty fucking attractive btw ♥♥♥
I maintain nobody has really suspected it yet because Merlin is so good at the 'What? Who? Me? I'm just a loveable, clumsy oaf...hones!" face and everyone falls for it because he's pretty and everyone totally knows Arthur's doing him behind the scenes..and well..nobody wants to lay a pyre down on the Prince's bitch--I mean uhm...bff?
I agree though, it feels like the writers are cutting back on our YAY FRIENDSHIP to shove pretty at us. I love Gwen, as a character and the actress...but well. We've already established that Merlin is the one who tends to lay the jutice smackdown on Arthur.
I was a lot confused as to why they let Gwen do it. @=@

I totally snorted when I read that. Ahahahah. It's all good though cause Merlin is Arthur's bitch and he knows it.
And oh yah, the writers have to push the whole "Gwen and Arthur are in loooovee~" at us because they were totally lacking last season. Imo I think they fucked up and didn't realize until they started hearing about the beautiful bromance between Arthur and Merlin. Then they were all like "ohhh shit we gotta fix this" and proceeded to throw Gwen on Arthur the first episode (so we as an audience knew that Arthur was attracted to Gwen of course). I just want my Merlin/Arthur back! :(
Yay! I've been waiting for this. I need to get out more.
(he’d practiced writing “Mrs. Merlin Pendragon” on those pages for hours, you see).
Bwhahahahahahaha!
is why it had to be Gwen who convinced Arthur to do what’s right.
Honestly, because her argument was more compelling. True, I don't think Arthur would have just stood by and let Gaius be murdered regardless whether or not he thought Gaius was guilty or not. But even though the writers clearly needed to paste on some het and show that it's Gwen who will make Arthur into a better person, Gwen's father died while Arthur did nothing to stop it. That trumps anything Merlin would have to say. Merlin would talk about what saving Gaius means to him. Gwen talks about what saving Gaius means for Arthur and his future ability as king.
I feel a little gypped that we’ve gotten so little meaningful Arthur-and-Merlin interaction in series 2. I’m not even talking with my Arthur/Merlin tinhat on right now; just from a gen perspective, I miss their friendship.
I thought this scene saved an otherwise completely filler episode. It's about time Gaius stopped being such pussy. And I loved that he called the king Uther.
