tracionn:sirlayon:Merlin Meme | Three BROTPs → Sir Leon/King Arthur (1/3)fractionallycamelot: #THIS FRIENDSHIP IS SO IMPORTANT TO ME #Talk to me about 5 year old Leon who’s taken to see the newly born Prince Arthur #With his father standing beside him saying ‘One day he will be your king.’ #Talk to me about 5 year old Arthur who has few friends due to being kept in the castle and close to his father’s side #Who finds friendship in Leon one of the young squires seeing to the knights #Talk to me about 15 year old Leon who is allowed to go on hunts with Arthur#The two of them racing through the forest while the knights and guards try to call them back #Talk to me about 15 year old Arthur who is faced with the suggestion of arranged marriage for the first time#Who sneaks out of the feast early with Leon to complain about how his love is being bargained for land and power #Talk to me about 20 year old Leon who achieves his dream and is knighted in front of his family and friends#By Uther’s hand but it is Arthur who drapes the Camelot red cloak over him and addresses him as ‘Sir Leon’ for the first time #Talk to me about 25 year old Arthur who is crowned King of Camelot following his father’s death#Who immediately appoints Leon to whatever position will keep his friend at his side because he can’t carry the weight of rule without him #Talk to me about 30 year old Leon who returns from Camlann without his king#Whose last words with Arthur were exchanged on the battlefield as they separated to head up different charges#Who has to stand in the same room where he first saw a newborn prince and pronounce the death of his friend #Talk to me about a friendship that was born of proximity strengthened in battle and honored respected and loved by both sides#The seemingly simple bond that made greater destinies possible -- source link
