vague one word merthur prompt: rain

Thank you to whoever sent this!

I wrote a fic based on this prompt here. 

Merlin stares forlornly out at the rain. It’s the eleventh consecutive day of grey, cold wet. He rubs his eyes, hard, thinking it wouldn’t be so bad if he clawed them out by accident. Nothing is worse than boredom. When he opens his eyes again, and the sparks of white fade from his vision, it’s still raining outside. He hangs his head, looking down at the grey, unforgiving stone his forearms rest on, contemplating how hard he would have to hit his head against it to knock himself out.

Sorry if I sent this twice, I might've also sent it to Phoenix by mistake 🥴

4, 11, 12 for the otp asks and then 28/dairy steak

lmao I love you, thank you for sending these twice <3

4. One physical aspect of a ship that always gets you

I love when they both have nice hands and they both spend a lot of time thinking about the other one’s hands

11. Opinion on platonic ships?

I love them! In this time of social distancing, I’ve been spending so much time reading long fics of ensemble cast media just to read about the characters hanging out as friends. It fills the social void a little bit. 

12. List 3 ships you currently love

Currently spending lots of time thinking about:

Merlin/Arthur 

Gwen/Morgana

Henry II/Thomas Becket

28. What’s ONE food/beverage that’s important to them?

asdhgasjdasg vegan eggplant parmesan.

Harry stole Davey’s one time and so Harry buys Davey vegan eggplant parm as an apology SEVERAL TIMES

Davey skeptically asks “you’re sure this is vegan? what restaurant did you get it” questions before eating it

Harry forgets the origin of the tradition of bringing Davey eggplant parmesan every time they see each other and starts thinking it’s just Davey’s favorite food and so continues to bring Davey eggplant parmesan very frequently past the point of a reasonable apology period

Davey doesn't like it THAT much but thinks it’s cute/sweet

Harry sends eggplant emoji before coming to visit and it no longer holds any meaning whatsoever

:)

1-4 plus 15 for the ship asks !!! and then 18 and 46 for merthur

1. List 3 shipping tropes you love

friends who should have realized the other one loves them back ages ago

longing for a simple life together away from fame/fate/obligation

finding love late in life/after you’d given up on it

2. List 3 shipping tropes you don’t love

“the top”/“the bottom”

coddling infantilization/anything with a “virtuous” one who’s perceived to be more baby or innocent

one of the characters is verbally hateful/racist of the other person or the group/race the other person belongs to

3. One emotional aspect of a ship that always gets you

person A is the ONE PERSON who TRULY KNOWS person B, even though there are lots of people who think they know person B, and it drives person A crazy because they’re just waiting for B to realize they’re worthy of love and don’t need all those other people to fake-know them. (wow this is really everything I ever ship pretty much)

4. One physical aspect of a ship that always gets you

when the short one is in charge

15. Opinion on kids?

YES. For some reason single parent fic is my favorite??? Or magical nanny/teacher fic falling in love with their favorite kid’s parent. Or mutual adoption of a baby dragon. I eat it all up. It’s the only thing I’ll read even if (or because) it’s badly written. I blame Julie Andrews.

Merthur:

18. Who confessed?

Arthur confesses many times and Merlin says “really?” and Arthur can’t tell if he’s misstepped so he says “don’t be stupid Merlin” and evades for forever. Eventually, he backs Merlin into a corner until HE confesses because it’s the only way Arthur can be sure he’s not abusing his privilege.

46. Give each character a Pokemon.

Arthur: Zacian

Merlin: Dratini

These asks are from this list, if anyone wants to ask more or reblog
