idk if it has been asked yet but, gwaine/lancelot for the ship tier list 馃憖
I can see the appeal in this! There鈥檚 something very opposites attract about them. Gwaine is swishy and loud, and openly chaotic. Lancelot is quiet and noble and solemn. But they also each have that spark of each other in them. Lancelot committed identity fraud the first day he arrived in Camelot, hid Merlin鈥檚 secret, and consistently asked Merlin to use his magic to goof off a bit. Gwaine knows when to put aside his chaos in favor of supporting something important and protecting people.
I would have loved more interaction with these two. I would have loved a moment where the knights all swap stories about how chaotic their entries into Camelot were only for Lancelot to admit to identity fraud. I think Gwaine would鈥檝e lost his mind over it.
I can see these two being good for each other.
I rank it:
C-Tier
Send me a Merlin Ship and I鈥檒l rank it on a tier list. Note: This is a subjective ranking and a low ranking in no way means that I am shaming you for your taste in ships.

*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鈥檚 magic: no! i have magic
gwaine, merlin defender, already knew of merlin鈥檚 magic, lover of chaos, ride or die: no, i have magic!
mordred, desperate for his hero鈥檚 approval bc no matter what he鈥檚 done emrys just stares at him with distrust and the poor boy is tired and so close to tears: no鈥 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鈥s merlin, down to clown and put on a show, really playing up the dramatics: no! i have magic.
leon, exhausted, has known of merlin鈥檚 magic since he stepped foot in camelot, knows of his feelings for arthur and arthur鈥檚 feelings for him, knows arthur knows of merlin鈥檚 magic and wouldn鈥檛 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鈥檛 said anything and is staring at leon expectantly*
leon, sighing: 鈥o. i have magic.

Magical orb that puts a crime count on everyone's head (while Arthur is king), counting the crimes based on the established laws. (Crime count in brackets)
Gwaine (127): this is an outrage
Arthur(3): I am as distraught as you
Gwaine (127): no, no. You don't get to say that! I've worked my whole life on this crime count and I've got less than THEM?
Merlin (847): *crosses arms* protecting Arthur comes with a cost. What I don't get.... Is THIS!!!!
Lancelot (1084): I can explain

I always find the posts/fics where leons just so over witnessing merthur pining so funny. Like that man really had to see them from the start and the tension between them grow and he just had to sit and watch. Like I imagine every time a new knight joined they all brought the weird vibes up and leon each time was more and more over it.
Like it stared w lance early on being like
Lance: hey leon, is it just me or are arthur and merlin lowkey pining for each other
Leon: oh thank god! Someone finally brought it up, yeah theyve been like this for a while-
But then ended up as
Percy talking to the knights as they watch merlin and arthur bicker (read: flirt): ok but, does it seem like theyre fli-
Gwaine, sounding exhausted: yeah theyve been like this for a while
Percy: really? And theyve still not done anything about it?
Leon the long suffering, whose now had to watch them for almost 10 years: *eye twitch* nope.
Edit: just gonna leave these screenshots here

Gwaine: it鈥檚 like Merlin always says: If at first you don鈥檛 succeed, it鈥檚 only attempted murder.
Arthur, the skeptic: Merlin? Merlin always says that?
Lancelot, wiping a tear: Inspirational.

So do we just all agree that the knights absolute love Merlin the way cat owners love their cats?
Knights, holding up Merlin from under his arms: so this is Merlin and he鈥檚 so nice and we love him.
Merlin: *is actively breaking the law by existing* *has literally killed people* *drops branches on peoples heads* *and even tried to kill the king*
Knights: he鈥檚 just a funky little guy :)
I would even bet money he knocks glasses off tables when he wants to annoy someone (Arthur-)

A Heart is made to Ache, Break and Heal by royal_spud Ship: Merlin/Gwaine, Merlin/Arthur, Gwaine/Lancelot Main Characters: Merlin, Arthur, Gwen, Knights of the Round Table, Lancelot, Gwaine, Leon, Mordred Rating: Mature Warnings: Major character death, Graphic depictions of violence Major tags: merlin breaks, magic reveal, angst, hurt/comfort, toxic but in love Summary: Merlin's always been the kindest among them, barely able to stand the sight of a dead rabbit. He despised violence and loathed hunting. And flinched at the sound of clanging metal. But when a sorcerer snatches the king and his knights from their bedchambers one calm night, and forces them all to watch him as he rampaged everything and everyone in his way as he searched of them, well kept secrets come spilling out; leaving them to wonder just how well they knew who Merlin was. If he was the same person who smiled as bright as the sun and sung to himself and made flower crowns. The person they'd known, and adored, and some had even grown to love. Or if he was someone else entirely.

country bumpkin merlin not knowing anything about city life and accidentally courting arthur without knowing
merlin, watching gwen give lancelot her favor: why do you do that
gwen, heart eyes at lance and not paying that much attention to the conversation: so he knows i鈥檓 rooting for him
merlin, with an Idea: ah.
gwaine, lover of chaos, pisser offer of nobles and royals alike, ultimate wingman: merlin鈥ou have such lonely lips. shall i introduce them to mine?
merlin, unaware of the game gwaine is playing: so you can steal my breath away? i think not, scoundrel
arthur, crushing his goblet in his hand:
merlin: arthur鈥檚 been in a bad mood recently :( i should cheer him up
merlin, remembering when arthur was put out when merlin brought morgana flowers and not him: i know just the thing
merlin, bringing a bouquet of carnations, roses, and tulips and setting them on arthur鈥檚 table while he鈥檚 eating breakfast: good morning, sire
arthur, trained on flower language in hopes that one day when he was to take a queen he could woo her easily, trying not to audibly choke on his sausage as he reads merlin鈥檚 declaration of love sitting in front of him:
arthur, who recently found out about merlin鈥檚 magic and was trying to find a way to bring it up, catching him in the act and watching merlin panic to explain himself:
merlin, Freaking: and i swear to you arthur, i have only ever used it for you. my magic is yours. my life is yours. i am yours. i would never do anything to harm you. i have protected you for years and will continue to do so at your side if you鈥檒l have me
arthur, already believing them to be courting, desperately trying to figure out if that was a proposal for marriage or not but tired of being confused and deciding fuck it: here.
merlin, taking it: i鈥h鈥uh?
arthur, watching merlin with hawk eyes and trying to figure out what he鈥檚 thinking and feeling: it鈥檚 my mothers sigil
merlin, confused as FUCK but is focusing on the fact that arthur is handing him something of his mother rather than a death sentence: my鈥y lord?
arthur, realizing how scared merlin鈥檚 must be about him finding out about his magic and trying to comfort him while also proposing, killing two birds with one stone: i will always keep you at my side, merlin, so long as we both shall live. if you鈥檒l allow me.
merlin, almost collapsing with relief and tearing up, smiling at arthur as if he had parted the storm clouds to allow sun to shine down on them in that moment: of course鈥f course, arthur. always and forever.
merlin, watching the castle staff rush this way and that: wow. this banquet must be incredibly important
sir leon the long suffering, day one ride or die, one of the original merthur shippers: banquet? merlin, this is for your wedding
merlin, overworked and exhausted: my WHAT? to WHO??
leon, regretting everything he鈥檚 ever done in his life that led him to this moment: to鈥rthur?
merlin, over joyed but also absolutely befuddled: i鈥檓 getting married to ARTHUR?????
leon: you two have been courting for the past year or so, have you not?
merlin: i鈥檝e been COURTING ARTHUR?????? FOR A YEAR?????????
