all merlin had to do to circumvent the prophecy of arthur’s death was take mordred in and turn him into a little arthur fanboy. it’s a win-win situation. merlin gets to gush about his man crush to this random ten year old and mordred gets a bunch of cool knights to love him and raise him. he’d hear about his destiny to kill arthur from someone and simply go “why the actual fuck would i do that.”

Want to share an excerpt from one of my wips for no reason Pt 4:
He jumped in surprise when he saw Arthur standing right in front of him and his eyes betrayed fear. 
"My lord?" he asked, but his voice cracked. 
So Mordred knew Merlin was in the dungeons. Who—
Right. Gwaine had been there. He dimly wondered if Gwaine was a sorcerer, but decided that he wouldn't be losing as many gambling games as he was if he did practice magic. 
"You are a druid," Arthur growled in a low voice. 
A flash of surprise mixed with desperation crossed his face, but he solemnly nodded. "I am."
"You use magic," Arthur growled again. 
"I do." Mordred's voice went as quiet as Merlin's had. This only made Arthur angrier. 
He pushed Mordred back in and shut the door.

For the character ask game - how about Mordred (Merlin BBC)?
Thanks for playing! :) I'll do my best but dang it's been A Hot Minute since I rewatched the show and I never had the deepest investment in this character so unlike with my faves, all memories are... fuzzy at best xD"
Favorite romantic ship(s): uuuh I didn't have any
Favorite platonic dynamic(s): I do remember that the Morgana-Morded dynamic was great and had a lot of potential (in a better world though)
LGBT+ headcanon(s): none since I never really thought about him that much
Job headcanon (in an AU/or future): I wish he'd just, stayed and become an apprentice to Gaius, and gotten to learn his magic there, and in that world, Morgana and Merlin and Morded had gotten to bond over their magic
Animal shifter headcanon: big black cat energy, but since I think of both Morgana and Merlin as dragons due to their alignment, I have to think of Mordred as a dragon too. So, depending on whether we're in a high fantasy setting or in a more 'non-fantasy creature' setting
Favorite canon thing about them: I really liked his loyalty to Arthur
Least favorite canon thing about them: how FORCED his villain turn was. once again. I stg the writers really not at these things

*merlins magic gets exposed in front of the knights*
merlin, magic user: oh fuck
arthur, finally taking this opportunity to pretend as if he just found out merlin has magic after agonizing for the past month on how to bring it up: you have magic?
lancelot, merlin defender, already knew of merlin’s magic: no! i have magic
gwaine, merlin defender, already knew of merlin’s magic, lover of chaos, ride or die: no, i have magic!
mordred, desperate for his hero’s approval bc no matter what he’s done emrys just stares at him with distrust and the poor boy is tired and so close to tears: no…i have magic.
percival, raised by druids and bonded strongly with mordred over that and does Not agree with the persecution of magic in camelot, had an inkling that merlin had magic but no proof: no. i have magic.
*leon and elyan exchange a look, elyan, amused and leon, exhausted, elyan shrugs*
elyan, knows how much gwen adores merlin and completely understands her stance bc merlin…is merlin, down to clown and put on a show, really playing up the dramatics: no! i have magic.
leon, exhausted, has known of merlin’s magic since he stepped foot in camelot, knows of his feelings for arthur and arthur’s feelings for him, knows arthur knows of merlin’s magic and wouldn’t harm him, thinks everyone is being absolutely ridiculous:
*the knights stare hard at leon and even merlin looks slightly offended at leon not jumping to his defense with the rest of the knights, arthur hasn’t said anything and is staring at leon expectantly*
leon, sighing: …no. i have magic.

sometimes I wake up In a cold sweat thinking about the idea that kilgharrah was just using merlin to get the outcome he wanted which was to end the pendragon bloodline. That he knew how it would end and that without merlin it wouldnt all occur, so he convinces him that all his decisions will help save arthur knowing damn well where it leads them.

when you originally start a WIP wanting it to be crack-treated-seriously/fluff of mordred being a surrogate child of divorce between merlin and morgana
Tumblr media
but then it spirals into a 17k angst-fest complete with kidnapping and cold iron

Arthur: what are you doing?
Gwen: *watching a couple* matchmaking
Arthur: what's that?
Gwen: I'm like a hitman. Only that my objective is to get people together and not shoot them.
Arthur: ... Is that a thing? You can do that?
Gwen: sweety, I can do anything, I'm Gwen
Arthur: can you matchmake me and Merlin?
Gwen: consider it done
After they got together:
Merlin: I hear you're a hitman
Gwen: how can I help, dear?
Merlin: I need a hitman. I have my eye on someone who needs to motherfucking DIE
Arthur: she's not that kind of -
Gwen: *already taking out her guns* give me a name

Merlin, *walks into a round table meeting and passes out on the table*
Merlin: I swear to the gods, if the prat doesn’t stop destroying his rooms every time he can’t find me
Arthur: I can hear you, and it serves you right for spending four whole days in the tavern.
Merlin, *crying in frustration and having not slept in four days*
Lancelot, *casually pets Merlin’s hair, earning glares from Arthur*
Morgana, *laughing into a scrying pool*
Mordred: the tavern? I thought he was fighting Morgana after she sent that beast to kill Arthur
Merlin, muffled by the table: shut the fuck up, Mordred.
