I Know Merlin Is Supposed To Be Represented By The Colour Blue And Arthur For Red For The Contrast And

i know merlin is supposed to be represented by the colour blue and arthur for red for the contrast and symbolism but imagine merlin in pendragon red. SPECIFICALLY arthur making him wear pendragon red

like??? arthur ordering merlin to wear a red cloak or something and merlin does it because why not its just a cloak, not knowing that he has just put on what is basically arthur's claim on him for everyone in the castle to see

the idea of owning a colour and then putting that colour on someone to show that they belong to you???? actually losing my mind

merlin but merlin thinks that arthur knows about his magic and that he isn’t mad <33333

and that they have a running joke about merlin ‘hiding’ his magic in dumber and dumber ways 

like merlin comes with worse and worse stories to cover up his magic because he thinks arthur already knows but obviously they cant openly discuss it because like uther so theyre both just laughing in their head 

arthur, on the other hand, is completely clueless about merlin’s magic

/

merlin at some point after uther’s death: remember when we had everyone believing i didnt have magic through really dumb reasons and they just bought it ??? like we’d come up with the stupidest excuses and theyd just believe it??? lmaooo good times

arthur, who still didn’t know about merlin’s magic, inwardly: W H A T ? ? ?

arthur, who would kill himself before letting merlin know that he’s that stupid: yeah lmao good times, ppl are so clueless *nervous sweating*

Knives Out + Glass Onion parallels

This exactly!

Ok but Nimueh is THE high priestess of the series.

She was the only priestess who truly seemed to actually care about what the Old Religion had to say. She wasn’t a good person but never acted like a “psychopath”. She never underestimate Merlin.

This character is so interesting that I’m not convinced she would fully support Morgana and Morgause. Yeah she would have joined them, but I don’t think she would have “obsessively” tried to kill Merlin and Arthur. They are her enemies, yes, she tried to kill them, but she didn’t truly want them dead. And that would be a problem for Morgana/Morgause.

Nimueh knows about the prophecies. She knows about Merlin and Arthur’s destiny. She literally wanted to put Arthur on the throne by herself and she kept dancing around Merlin’s because she had sussed who he was and wanted the opportunity to recruit him.

The way she kept dancing around Merlin’s request to take his life, and how she said numerous times that she had no control over who lived or died but it seemed to make sure it avoided Merlin and when Gaius requested his life suddenly it was very accurate Imao. She knew what she was doing.

It would be so cool to see a villain also try to fulfill the prophecy but in their own twisted way.

She shouldn’t have died!

Sherlock: Do you ever get pre-annoyed? Like you already know someone is going to piss you off?

John: *confused* What?

Mycroft: *enters room*

Sherlock: *jaw clenches*
