Deep breath. Steeples fingers. It’s the way Arthur never needed to know Merlin was part of his destiny to be on his side over and OVER again
#merlin
#they’re a true have your cake and eat it too ship
#on the one side merlin who feels the full weight and pull of a destiny he can’t escape
#that he chooses to run towards with open arms
#on the other side Arthur
#who has NO obligation to merlin except the one he feels and creates for himself
#opens the forbidden ‘what if merlin….was good’ book
#do you think about how often kilgarrah talks about them as EQUALS
#two sides of the same coin. two souls meant to be one.
#but merlin always ALWAYS ALWAYS casts himself as lesser
#he sees their joint destiny as one where he is subservient to Arthur
#less important
#he is constantly willing to die for Arthur’s sake and he TRULY THINKS IT DOESN’T MATTER
#merlin is constantly of the view that if he dies so Arthur can live that is *fulfilling their destiny*
#what a cruel trick the end of their story is
#but that’s my point kinda: merlin never actually understood their destiny
#that’s why he fails the test and mordred survives
#because he tells Arthur magic can never be allowed in Camelot bc he is too busy trying to save Arthur to save himself
#and as a result he gets it wrong
#if you look at the whole show but s5 especially as a tragedy the arc is absolutely classical
#meanwhile Arthur never knows about FUCKING ANY OF THIS
#and yet and yet and yet
#call it destiny or love he still finds his partner in merlin. the other half of his soul.
#he never needed to know what they were supposed to be to see what they could be
