what ever happened to production companies aiming to garner a dedicated fanbase/fandom for their shows and the support of these fandoms ensuring the security and success of the show for future seasons, which when made would bring even more people into the fandom.

but now companies like netflix don't care about growing dedicated fandoms and will only greenlight second seasons of shows if they are watched by a population of half a billion within their first month. which shows me that they only really care about getting the attention of the general public. tbh, i feel like if dr who or sherlock or supernatural or merlin were to have aired on netflix rn, they wouldn’t have been renewed. it sickens me how much media priorities have changed.

#f*ck you netflix #tv shows #doctor who #sherlock #supernatural #spn #merlin #wednesday #stranger things #im just pissed #justice for #half bad #the bastard son and the devil himself #tbsatdh #warrior nun #fate: the winx saga #winx #*internal screaming*

Seriously, the way we watch Arthur's whole world change from the very first second he comes into contact with Merlin is so. damn. cute.

There's no doubt why Arthur let him get away with outright "disrespectful" and borderline treasonous comments and behaviour the first time they met.

I mean, look at the way he instantly lit up at the concept of verbal and physical sparring with this elfin looking dude with the real "couldn't give a sh*t- try me" attitude. Someone who not only took on a knight of Camelot in mid training, but didn't change his attitude one little bit when he found out he was addressing the goddamn prince of Camelot, in fact he doubled down and got worse.

And Arthur loved the challenge, loved the defiance, loved the concept of spending more time with this guy, especially time spent doing something he loves - sparring. There's nothing Arthur loves more than a physical activity - we see it throughout all five seasons. Search the whole castle on a wild goose chase? Absolutely. Train 15 new knights in a single day? Sign him up. Ride out to battle a magical beast? He's already out the door.

And even though he knows (thinks) he can beat Merlin into submission in two moves, he's finally going up against someone who doesn't give a flying f*ck who he is and will square up to him and give his absolute best. And he hopes this will be a regular occurrence.

And the dismay when Uther declares Merlin to be Arthur's new servant isn't because he doesn't want Merlin around - it's because he's afraid it will change the relationship they've already begun to establish. That Merlin won't develop into the one person he can trust to be real with him, and instead he will become reserved and "yes-sir-no-sir-three-bags-full-sir" like every. other. damn. person.

And you can't miss the way his eyes absolutely light up that first time Merlin does his servant duties and continues being defiant, honest, real.

I love these characters so damn much, and I couldn't love Colin and Bradley more for how incredible they are.

Summary: When a sudden change in Shane's behaviour appears it leaves you both startled and vulnerable. Meanwhile your brother takes on his brotherly duty of checking out Daryl. Will Shane's new attitute be more dangerous then his explosive one? [ read part 1 & part 2 & part 3 & part 5 ]

You were searching the back of the truck for something specific in one of the many bags stashed there. You had to bend a bit over the railing to reach more to the middle. Slightly getting bugged that you just couldn’t reach that bag. You heard some footsteps approach, yet kept focused on your doings. – “Daryl can you…” – you started as the person behind you neared. Your words cut off by a loud gasp, eyes widening as two firm hands set on your hips. Their body pressing hard against your back. This didn’t feel like Daryl.

His grip was too brutal for it. – “Where is your bodyguard?” – you heard Shane say close to your ear. A shiver of fright went through your body, making you instinctively elbow him back and spin around to be less vulnerable. Shane stumbled back with his hands up and a ridiculous smirk on his face. – “What the f*ck do you want!” – you called out to him, feeling disgusted that he had touched you.

Shane lowered his hands with a cocky expression. – “So defensive.” – he replied with a dirty chuckle. You kept a tentative eye on his behaviour, with him you could never be certain. He noticed you were anxiously looking past him, almost if you were hoping someone would notice him around you and come.

“Looking for Rick?” – Shane asked, moving his head a bit so he’d block your view. – “Or that dirtbag of yours?” – he added following your motion as he wanted to keep himself in the centre of you. – “Can’t defend yourself? You are pathetic Y/n.” – he scoffed making you harden your gaze to a glare at him. – “And you’re a dick.” – you responded. To your surprise he laughed. You were anything but trying to be funny. Shane touched his nose, looking briefly away before taking a step closer to you.

He set his hand down on the truck, entrapping one side of yours. He tilted his head a bit to get a better look at you. You felt intimated and watched. Wanting his prying eyes to stop, you pushed him away. – “You lied to me!” – you called out wanting to change whatever he was doing. You wanted to divert his prying eyes from you.

Anything to get those hungry eyes off you. – “About?” – Shane asked in return, finding his balance again. – “Rick!” – you shouted at him. Shane tensed his jaw. – “You told me he was dead!” – you reminded him. – “He was as good as dead.” – Shane responded loud.

“Going after him was hopeless.” – he finished. – “You left him for dead…” – you accused. Shane came closer again standing nose to nose with you. Puffing his chest up to appear taller. – “I did what I had to do in that situation.” – he made clear. – “Rick was as good as dead.” – he stated staring hard at you. – “I saved you.” – he said making you harden your expression. – “No, you left me for dead.” – you answered coldly. Shane slammed his hand against he back of the truck, startling you. – “That was on you!” – he called out.

“If you only…” – he slightly lowered his voice not finishing his sentence. – “If what?” – you shouted at him angry. Shane inhaled sharp through his nose, grabbing you firm by your arms. Your back got pushed hard against the back of the truck. With a bit of fright in your eyes, you stared back in his eyes. Shane staring right back at you, before he breathed out a laugh.

Lowering his head with a shake as he kept chuckling. His act a complete mystery to you. He inhaled sharp through his teeth, looking back up to you. This time he was smiling as he booped your nose. – “Y/n Grimes.” – he said with a chuckle. Clearly amusing himself, but completely confusing to you. He took in a deep breath, looking up to the sky.

Brows furrowed, you couldn’t help but stare confused at him. Shane’s gaze was on you again till they lowered. Stopping somewhere at the same height of your lips. It made your expression untense with surprise. Shane smiled. Moving your shoulders, you wanted to brush his hands off you. Shane let go of you taking a step back. He turned around taking his leave, yet while walking off he just had to look one more time back at you.

Once he was out of sight, you exhaled loud. Grasping for your chest, feeling your heart pound like a maniac. This behaviour might have been scarier then when he pressed a gun against your head. You forgot about your search and just ran off. Not wanting to be out of that situation. You jogged back to camp just to be more in the public eye.

Carol stopped you, seeing you were out of breath. – “Hey are you alright Y/n?” – she asked touching your shoulder. Unable to form any words you kept trying to catch your breath. – “Fine…” – you told her. – “You sure?” – She asked further. Taking in a deep breath, you hummed with your hands on your hip.

“All fine.” – you reassured her with a soft smile. – “Okay Y/n.” – she replied not pushing any further. You walked over to the campfire, picking up a bottle of water from the cooler (that didn’t work anyway) from beside Glenn. Taking the top off, you started to drink. First a voice came followed by a touch. – “Did you find the toolbox?” – It was Daryl’s voice as he had placed a hand on your hip.

His little touch made your body reflex into wanting to get them off. You jumped forwards, spinning around immediately, some water splashing out of the bottle. Daryl moved his hands up as a reflex. – “Sorry.” – he said looking a bit hurt at you. You exhaled deep once your brain was sure it was Daryl. – “No I’m sorry.” – you told him, approaching him.

“I’m… just a bit… jumpy.” – you went on, closing your water bottle. You laid your arm on his shoulder tilting his chin up with your finger, wanting him to look you in the eye instead of looking away. – “I’m sorry.” – you let him know with clear intentions. To prove to him you were truly sorry, you gave him a kiss. – “You okay?” – Daryl asked as your gaze drifted over your shoulder. Across, your eyes met up with Shane.

He had stopped and was staring. Something about the tightness in his expression making you nervous. Almost as if he was making up scenario’s in his mind. Daryl noticed your absence as he looked beyond you, seeing Shane as well. His first reaction was to look disgusted back at him. Almost murderous as his hand gently pushed you closer to him. – “I’m okay.”- you spoke breaking the contact with Shane.

You started walking taking Daryl’s hand as you pulled him with you. Daryl’s gaze never leaving Shane’s with a threatening look. – “I didn’t find the toolbox.” – you told Daryl while walking off. Daryl gave you his full attention once more, falling in step with you. Daryl and you walked up to the truck. Daryl reached in the trunk, taking out the toolbox. – “Daryl…” – you started, hearing him hum loud as a response.

“Can… can I sleep with you in the camper tonight?” – you asked feeling a bit shy. Daryl turned his posture to you. – “Sure, why?” - he asked curious. – “It’s just… I… I don’t feel like being alone tonight…” – you answered as Daryl threw his arm over your shoulder. – “I got ya Y/n.” – he responded leaving a caring kiss against the temple.

Daryl handed the toolbox to Rick. – “Thanks.” – he said, slapping Daryl against his shoulder. Rick set the toolbox down, kneeling beside it. – “So uhm you and my sister..” – Rick started taking out a wrench. – “Rick!” – you called out embarrassed. Your brother chuckled. – “I was just curious Y/n.” – Rick answered moving his hands up with a smile. – “Uh-hu.” – you hummed out funnily. – “You just want to hear him out.” – you replied.

“I mean if you want me too.” – Rick responded with a chuckle. – “No, I don’t.” – you said giving him a nudge so he almost lost his balance. Rick laughed. – “I just want to get to know the man my sister finds interesting.” – he said embarrassing you. – “Oh shut up.” – you nudged him again to make him stop embarrassing you. – “You know my sister used to be really shy.” – Rick told Daryl.

“Really?” – Daryl looked with surprise at you. Rick hummed loud. – “Used to be afraid to talk to boys.” – he outed. – “I was eleven!” – you called out to justify it. Daryl seemed to find it adorable. – “I mean she hid behind the curtains when Shane came by for the first time.” – Rick continued to tell with a chuckle. – “Shane would make it a game to get you from behind the curtains.”

“You two were stupid teenagers.” – you responded to your brother, remembering it. You remembered very well how Shane would run up to the curtains, tickling you through the thick curtains, just to get you to move from behind them. Teasing you with silly words and pulls on the curtain as you kept pulling it back in front of you, not wanting to engage with a teenage boy. Daryl’s smile had faded, showing a bit of jealousy in his expression.

“Anyways.” – you said loud not wanting to hear more of it. – “I grew out of it.” – you told Rick laying an arm over Daryl. – “You did.” – Rick replied with a warm smile. You nudged Daryl to leave your brother to do his tasks. Glancing to your side, you noticed Daryl actually wanted to ask you something. – “Don’t.” – you let him know.

Daryl simply nodded. He came standing before you, making you stop. – “I’ll have to finish some tasks, see you tonight in the camper?” – he wanted to ask to be certain. You hummed with a nod. Daryl kissed your forehead before taking his leave. Exhaling soft, you turned around to head over to Carol for laundry duty.

Night was falling as you felt exhausted. Muscles sore from handwashing all those clothing. You had just said goodnight to Carl, telling him you’d do a sleepover with him tomorrow. He wanted to have a sleepover with you in the car, but you had already promised Daryl you’d come. Carl seemed satisfied enough with your answer running over to the tent he shared with Rick and Lori. You opened the door to the camper, getting in.

Daryl already laid on the bed or rather self-made sleeping area. With one hand behind his back, he lowered himself. Tapping the empty space beside him whilst laying his head down. You chuckled going over to him. You laid yourself beside him as Daryl moved his arm around you. He snuggled closer to you, settling himself in a good comfortable position. His chin resting against the top of your head. – “My offer still stands.” – he muttered out with closed eyes.

It took you a second to remember which offer till you got it. The running away offer. – “I know…” – you replied moving your head on his chest. Somehow you couldn’t get Shane out of your head, as some things became clearer. Perhaps there has been hints of his behaviour towards you in the past. When you were younger, he always seemed to take an eager interest in you. Why?

“Daryl?” – you said soft expecting an answer, but your answer got replied by soft snoring. Lifting your head up, you wanted to see for sure. He had fallen asleep. Taking a deep breath, you lowered your head on his chest once more. Pulling your knees up to snuggle closer to him. Trying to banish the demons from your head.

BBC Merlin Characters and Their Pride Flags:

Based on my own headcanons, obviously.

Merlin: Panromantic Asexual! (I can also see him being elsewhere on the ace-spec…maybe even demi if I really stretch)

Arthur: Bi Polyamorous Demisexual! I actually didn’t see him as being ace-spec until series 5, but then I remembered the most salacious he ever was, was under a love spell…so.

Morgana: Lesbian Demiromantic! (I promise some of them won’t be a-spec, but not this girl) She needs that bond, she needs that ride-or-die 🤌

Guinevere: Polyamorous Bisexual! Of course she is, she’s the most lovely and she loves everyone and everyone loves her 💖

Leon: Aromantic Asexual! I know it’s been said before and I can only agree; the only time he seemed interested was under an enchantment.

Lancelot: Polyromantic Biromantic!? Let me explain, I think he’s in love with Gwen, Merlin, & Arthur. But I think he wants to sleep with Gwen 🤷 so his d!ck is kinda het, but his brain isn’t…I need to stop.

Gwaine: Bisexual Greyromantic! He’s a bicon and he’s in love with Merlin, sorry I don’t make the rules.

Elyan: Transgender! This is just how I see him <3

Percival: Pansexual! He’s here for good vibes from good people and for being loved 🥹

Anyways…I’ve been wanting to do this since I started watching series 1 :)

The more I re-watch Merlin the more I realize what a d*ck Uther is. Like I never liked him, but I didn't realize that he was picking on a what 16/17 year old servant girl? Backhanding her in the throne room? His overbearingness on Arthur can be like "Oh, he's the hire, of course he's gonna be over bearing to him" But the way he is an ass to everyone. Giaus literally, helped him with MAGIC to get a son, but as soon as Giaus is like "WE HAVE A SERIOUS MAGIC PROBLEM!"

Uther the idiot is all "Wait what? But, that's illegal."

Who the hell let this man ten feet near a throne?!

PHILOMENA CUNK MEDIEVAL CASTLE MONOLOGUE TRANSCRIPT

(somehow, no one has posted this script online, so hopefully this saves a few people from having to painstakingly transcribe the clip like I did)

Standing here now in whatever castle this is, I can't help but wonder what life must have been like in medieval times, because medieval times aren't happening anymore, so wondering is my only option. But just imagine it, here in the central atrium, the table is laid out for a feast. People are bashing tankards together and laughing. The table is bedecked in haunches of venison. Blackbird pie, roast goose inside a pig, the full works. Little bowl of plums there-I think that's a side dish. Over here, peasents are toing and froing in their finery. A knight clanking by in his armor. In this corner someone's playing medieval flute music, and in front of that, a jester jumping up and down in his little bells. There's a big sort of ogre thing watching, enjoying the sight of that. Then up at this end the King's sitting on his throne, next to the queen, a bishop, and a rook. They're watching Merlin getting his head chopped off which rolls all the way across the floor to there, where some wild boar gobble it up. Ugh, that is disgusting. You're lucky you can't see that. Suddenly the gaity is interrupted when the glass in the window shatters and an arrow flies into the room. It thuds into this wall, right in the middle of the bayeoux tapestry. Gasps ring out and give way to whispers as Thomas A. Beckett-that's me-pulls the arrow from the wall. (Struggling noises) Hold on! Agh, Christ. The arrow has a message on it. Thomas carefully takes the message off, discards the arrow-(f-ck!!) sorry-unfurls the message, and reads it aloud...it's from Robin Hood threatening revenge on the entire round table for what they did to Gandalf. Another gasp. The jester faints, worried murmors fill the air, and get louder, and turn to screams. It's chaos. The flute goes mental, a dancing bear howls in anguish. Someone starts lodging pigs into a catapult. A space invader floats across the room, shitting a harpsichord made of glass horses on his way to the ground. Finally up at this end, the king stands up, bashing his gavel. He shouts 'order, order!' but in a deep man's voice, with a medieval accent. The castle falls silent. You can hear a pin drop, but not literally, 'off with his head!' he shouts. And that breaks the ice. Everything's okay again, the jester's back up on his feet, the music's up and running, everyone's merrily knocking back the mead. Life in the castle is back to normal, just in time for everyone to suddenly drop dead from plague.

Merlin's ending was a tragedy, yes, but let's talk about these two scenes with Gwen and Gaius

These scenes are very important, the writers knew what they were doing here. There is a PURPOSE in these scenes.

There is no way that Gwen is still oppressing Merlin and his people after these scenes. I just....can’t believe it. Gwen would never do that to Merlin. Everyone at the battlefield knows that all of Albion was saved by a sorcerer and Gwen was told that the sorcerer was Merlin. Gaius probably told Gwen EVERYTHING.

We don't see magic made explicitly legal, i know. Nonetheless, it's obvious that magic users will be seen in a different light after Camlann.

Magic is legal again, i have no doubt about it.

The ending is depressing as f*ck with a wee spark of hope at the end, but Merlin did save his people. He did save Albion. He failed to save Arthur’s life. But not the magic users.

Btw, if Arthur survived, he would have legalized magic as well.

Hi! I hope you are well and forgive the tomfoolery this ask is going to be.

So, we all know that "Longspear" has a very clear innuendo. What would the ROs think if MC chose something similar, but in the opposite direction. That is, if the MC named themselves "Shortspear"? Would they go directly to the possible sexual innuendo, or would just go over their heads?

Unlike Longspear and Breakspear, Shortspear isn't an actually well established and already known surname. But it is a well known weapon type. So most ROs are going to assume that the MC is pulling a "Broderick Doe" or being chuuni or something.

Merlin: Is this the complement to (Caradoc) Shortarm?

Adrian: 🤨*has secretly been wondering if MC is pulling a Percival for years*

Arthur: *is quite frankly used to stranger names than this*

Percy: 🤜🤛

4̸0̵4̵ ̴E̷r̴r̷o̴r̴ ̷N̵o̵t̵ ̵F̸o̴u̵n̷d̴: [absolute lack of f#cks given here]

Cassandra: Whatever you say, dear.

Gwen: ( 6 _ 6 )

Vivian: [see 404]

Lorelei: 🤨

Broderick: *no right to throw stones in this glass house* (⚆﹏⚆)💦
