The Arthur/Morgana-thon!

[midnightdream__]

I know that I'm not the only one the slightest bit irritated by the current season of Merlin so far. Personally, I'm crushed with how the writers have suddenly decided to switch plots and relationships in S2. It's bad enough that they have neglected and butchered the dynamic between Arthur and Morgana from last season -- but the characterization of

Hmm! I have read most of the fic here at LJ but that doesn't ring any bells immediately. I will keep an eye out for it!

Especially: 0:40 and on (so intense!), 4:30 on (I feel like it really shows how Morgana knows Arthur), 7:00 on (and the entire 1x07 episode in general), in that episode: 7:28 on (GO MORGANA, WOOTWOOT! :D), 7:37 (one of her best expressions EVER).

Aw, thanks for that, it's nice to be reminded of all the chemistry they have (with their complete lack of interaction it's hard to remember sometimes--maybe that's the writers' plan, make us forget how much chemistry A/Mor had in order to believe A/G?), and of when he actually cared about her (even in 1x04 he says "I'm sorry Morgana, I should have checked to be sure you were alright" when there was never any real danger facing her!).

I wonder why the balcony scene was out of order? But yeah, good times...*sigh*

That's actually an amazing manip. For a minute I was like 'WHAT?! WHEN DID THAT HAPPEN?!"
Yeah.

Wow! That is seriously the best compliment I could get! :D

I wish it DID happen!

AMAZING manip. I'm glad I read your note before it loaded, because I would have freaked out and thought it was a promo pic or something. Flawless! gnbkshbvbkjghkrjk She would be his perfect queen!

Like nearly everyone else, I loved the episode because of Morgana awesomeness, but really longed to see Arthur show care and concern. I'm currently writing a fic to fill in the blanks, lol.

Thank you so much for doing this thread. We on the ArMor ship really need a chance to remember the good times and cheer up! There is always hope, at this point I just want to see some interaction because their chemistry brings so much to the show. I don't care what has happened in S2 so far, they can't convince me that these two don't have feelings for each other. S1 was not in vain! LOL

Arthur/Morgana is my crack. Delicious crack! <3

Personally I like the abbreviation "AMor", because it's "love" in Spanish! :D

I'm about to start watching this show--actually, that's a lie...I'll probs put it off until January--but ARTHUR AND MORGANA ARE SO GORGEOUS. I thought they were step-siblings in the show, though? Does that make it wrong to ship them? XD

I'd still recommend the first season - and watching it in general, because it is awesomely fun. AND YES, THEY ARE SO BEAUTIFUL.

Lol, I can't stand incest, so thankfully: no :P. Morgana's father was friends with Uther (Arthur's father), and when her father was killed in battle, Uther basically took her in as one of his own. She's grown up with Arthur for a while, but nope, no blood relation.

[invicta]

Oh, no, I didn't think they were actually related, I just wondered if they were official step-siblings or something like that. XD But one thing's for certain--they're so beautiful in icons that I'm practically blinded by them. Seriously. I need to get me some, haha.

[midnightdream__]

I don't think they had official adoptions back then? Lol. They have never been referred to each other as brother or sister (or any step variation) so I honestly can't say. Just watch any of their scenes - they act FAR from considering that about each other :P.
