schweetheart:fluffypotatey:once-and-future-dawn:brigwife:can we talk about what seems to be happening hereMerlin and knights being brosArthur watching Merlin from afar with the biggest hearts in his eyesMerlin staring lovingly backShipper knights cotton on to what’s happeningArthur scarpersMerlin tries to bluff his way out of itKnights aren’t buying a word of it because they know about the poetry@queenkazma that was actually the first thing I thought about too (and they’re my OTP ). The whole point of 4x05 was to teach Arthur that being king doesn’t mean that he needs to distance himself from the people he holds dear (Gwen, Merlin, his knights, etc). I think this scene is a good contrast to 5x01, where Arthur can be seen mingling with his knights.(Source)Over the years, he’s learnt his lesson; he knows not to push people away anymore. Instead of ignoring Merlin’s advice like in 4x05, he asks for it 5x05 (about a subject that could change one of the most important laws of his kingdom nonetheless). It’s one of the few pieces of character development the writers gave Arthur. Without the influence of Agravaine and Uther, he becomes a more confident king who (for the most part) rules with his own set of wisdoms. Although if we want to be romantic about it, we could also add that in both scenes (the gifset and the gif I put), Arthur’s attention is first and foremost on Merlin (by the way the frames are ordered), and Merlin is also the first person to notice Arthur staring. Also in 5x01 Arthur chooses to leave his knights and go to Merlin because he notices his best friend is upset. Cue much ✨ prolonged eye contact ✨ and probably one of the most romantic conversations in the show.@nextstopparis same Arthur needs hugs and I will sign any petition that anyone has. #HugArthurPendragon2020 he deserves it. if I weren’t already super busy I would a) write this and/or b) create some kind of #HugArthurFest because lord knows the poor boy needs it.A #HugArthurFest was the first thing on my mind lol -- source link
