CrypticGod!Merlin and Worshipper aka fanboy Mordred CRACK AU - Part 3
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3
Merlin learns that being a god in semi-mortal form is very difficult when having a strong follower like Mordred.
Mordred, like many who pray to their god as some kind of anchor, will often pray something along the lines of ‘Emrys, give me strength and courage’ or ‘Emrys, please be with me through this difficult time’ unconsciously.
Except, unlike the normies, his commitment and belief are EXTREMELY STRONG, so when he prays strong enough, HIS GOD ACTUALLY SHOWS UP:
Arthur, charging him during sparring: Come on, Mordred! You can do better than this!!
Mordred: (anxiously praying) Emrys helps me
Merlin, suddenly appears between Arthur and Mordred, with Arthur about to smash him with the sword: THE FUCK—
Obviously, he is banned from praying during sparring, but occasionally Merlin will still pop up out of nowhere when he is anxious, and the knights eventually have to get used to it:
Arthur: Today, the neighbouring kingdom’s knights will join us for the practice, and there will be some competitions. I hope all of you are ready to protect and uphold the honour of Camelot’s knights. Any defeat is unacc—-
Arthur:
Arthur: any defeat is understandable, for one must lose before learning true victory, so please don’t get too stressed, especially you, Mordred.
Mordred: How do you know I am stressed?
Gwaine, carrying Merlin, who pop up above his head the moment Arthur said ‘defeat’, on his neck : Yeah, I wonder how
As their relationship improves, the power of Mordred’s prayer gets stronger. Not only can Merlin feels his emotions and more in-depth thoughts through the prayer, it also affects Merlin’s power, in both endearing and also straight-up ridiculous ways.
Lancelot, whispers: You are very upset because of that Lord Asshole’s shitty comment toward the Druids, aren’t you.
Mordred, calm and composed: No, I am a knight of Camelot and a grown man, I will not be bothered by something so trivial. I am not upset at all.
Lancelot: You aren’t praying to Merlin now are you.
Mordred: How is that relevant?
Merlin: *BARGING INTO THE MEETING* *SHOOTING FIRE BEAMS FROM HIS EYE, DESTROYING THE PATH AS HE WALKS* *GRABBING LORD ASSHOLE BY A COLLAR THEN PROCEEDS TO GERMAN SUPLEX HIM ON THE TABLE*
Arthur, watching this happens for the third time this week:
Arthur: Mordred, we talked about this, you have to express your thoughts and feelings verbally, not by praying to Merlin
Merlin: Don’t force him Arthur! He will talk when he is ready!
Arthur: STOP SPOILING HIM YOU ARE JUST HAPPY YOU GET TO PUNCH NOBLES
Also, when he is extremely happy, he prays to Merlin as well, like ‘Thanks Emrys for all the good fortunes that happen to me today’
Elyan: Arthur complimented Mordred at training today didn’t he? Maybe saying something like ‘you are going to be one of Camelot finest knights soon’
Percival: How do you know??? you were not there today????
Elyan, watching Merlin’s skin glows, not even in an oh so beautiful ethereal way but like a radioactive sun way: It’s .. hard to miss…
The first time Mordred wins a tournament, Merlin radiates for three days straight. His voice also sounds godly with all the weirdly smooth echoes and harp melody complimenting his every word. Mordred is exhilarated. Arthur is going insane. Merlin finally officially bans Mordred from praying to him.

have you ever imagined a scenario where arthur is reborn in modern times and remembers everything. so he misses merlin very much and wants to find him again. and he does.
but merlin doesn't remember.
for whatever reason, really. maybe he was reborn after killing himself at some point, because he waited too long. maybe he erased his own memory because remembering was to painful. we don't know any if that.
only that arthur is now here and merlin looks at him, with no hint of recognition, and asks
"sorry, who are you?"

I’m headcanoning that Arthur and Gwaine are both the type of petty arsehole to do shit they just know will piss Merlin off after an argument if it isn’t really a proper argument. Like debating over the best pjo character again and one of them clearly being wrong.
It’s all not particularly important, but it definitely matters.
He’ll boil water in the microwave for tea despite there being a kettle right there or he’ll put milk and sugar in with the teabag before the water.
Y’know. Like a madman.

merlin but its just him sneaking out magic users to safety in ridiculous and obvious ways 
like it starts with him sneaking into the dungeons and leading them out the night before their execution but making sure he has an alibi for the night just in case (it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t tbh arthur will be there to explain how his dimwitted manservant could never pull this off)
then gradually he doesn’t even wait until it’s night (working for gaius and for arthur is hard and that doesn’t even account for his job as arthur’s secret protector - he has no time)
there’s a scene where some evil magic user tries to assassinate arthur but merlin finds out and
merlin: if i may ask, why are you trying to kill arthur
evil magic user: BECAUSE OF THE EVILS HIS FATHER HAS PLAGUED THIS LAND WITH
merlin: ah but you’re not killing his father, you’re killing arthur
evil magic user: I AM STOPPING UTHER’S BLOOD FROM CONTINUING TO POISON MORE AND MORE PEOPLE
merlin: well that’s not really fair to arthur, is it? your anger is understandable but arthur is not his father, it would be unfair to damn him for his father’s sins. instead if we show arthur that magic is not evil, he will know his father’s ways were wrong
contemplating evil magic user: how can we put our trust on a chance
merlin: arthur’s a good man, my word may mean little, but i truly know him. would you like to come up for tea and we can discuss it thoroughly and also how you should spend your energy finding other magic users so you have a community and you can all plan for a better future together
not so evil magic user: ... yes please
//
magic users who don’t have anywhere to go all get sent to hunith’s house where she helps them find their footing and sometimes they stay in ealdor and sometimes they leave but they’re safe
everyone in ealdor side-eyes the random ass people hunith’s kid keeps on sending her but ultimately dont say shit because god knows uther would just kill all of them for assisting magic or some bs and their own king isnt better
//
there is a scene where merlin sneaks a magic user out and they thank him for risking his life and merlin says “nah don’t worry i do this all the time” and then makes a note to himself to tell arthur that the security at camelot is awful (after arthur becomes king of course)
//
sometimes when all else fails merlin pretends to know whatever person is on the run and makes a big show about missing them and no way could they have magic maybe he uses his magic to block theirs or if theyre a druid cover their druid marks and yeah
//
he pretends mordred is his younger brother and no one questions it
//
arthur knows what he’s doing and corners him like “ARE YOU STUPID?? YOU’RE SO OBVIOUS MY FATHER WILL FIND OUT”
and merlin’s like “no offense but your dad aint known for being smart babe”
and arthurs like thats treason but he helps cover up for merlin anyway
//
merlin helping someone sneak out but then bringing them to arthur’s room real quick because he forgot something there
//
merlin using the residents of the castle’s stupidity and obliviousness against them
//
leon knows whats going on and he brings it up to arthur before arthur figures it out but he does it vaguely and arthur thinks its about his crush on merlin and swears leon to secrecy and leons like “aight” and helps cover for merlin too
//
arthur still doesn’t know about merlin’s magic
//
leon does though and he thinks its another thing that him and arthur have sworn to secrecy about
//
there’s now a place near ealdor where magic users can go for safety if they don’t go to hunith directly like a magic hotel thing
yeah
//
merlin accidentally and kinda purposefully at times (but mostly on accident) helps unite the magic community and that causes less people to go evil
unfortunately, it also means that people who are too far gone in their desire for revenge or just in their own evilness are more organized but merlin is strong so its okay and he doesn’t have to deal with half assed attempts made by people who don’t think they have any other choice
//
the servants all know whats up but they don’t get paid enough to deal with this shit
//
yeah thats all ive got for now

Merlin is a person to crash his own funeral.
Whether he sita up in the coffin.
Or rises from the ashes like a Phoenix.
Or walks in, saying he 'arrived fashionably late to the party'.
He is a dramatic bitch that deserves to crash his own funeral

Things To Never Say To Someone Who Just Came Out - the Onion (Merlin Edition)
Tumblr media
It’s not a competition.
Tumblr media
Not everyone comes out as stunningly as you.
Tumblr media
Give Mr. New Gay Man a minute to breathe before pushing plans on him!
Tumblr media
They do, but give them a minute.
Tumblr media
Come on. At least wait a week before swooping in with corporate requests.
Tumblr media
Don’t imply that their closeted sexuality was easily apparent to anyone who peered through their windows with binoculars every night.
Tumblr media
You can be supportive without keep mentioning his destiny.

hello,
So, I am re-watching Merlin and now so much keeps coming up on my tik-tok, but wtf is up with the Merlin slander I am seeing?
People saying Morgana was the hero if you didn’t see things from Merlin’s POV?
WHAT?
I love Morgana, she is hot as fuck and a badass villain, but she fucking murders people, she is a murderer.
She turned herself into Uther, she stopped fighting for magic and started fighting for power, soooo…
Like she went through major shit, Uther is a dick, and Morgana was fucking tortured and she has so much valid trauma like, my poor baby.
But once she hits season five, she is a villain. She is not a hero, because she stopped fighting for the freedom of magic, for others, she just started fighting for her.
idk man that’s just my opinion but i could just be emotionally clouded because I am in LOVE with Merlin and Colin Morgan as a whole.
But yeah, stay gay, do crime and believe in Merthur cause it was real folks.
xoxo

The knights + Gwen have figured out that when Merlin and Arthur argue, you can give them something to hold and they will accept it and just keep holding until their argument is over.
Que both King and Court Warlock holding a bunch of random shit in the middle of the hallway and being very confused about it because their friends think they’re hilarious.
