Arthur: You know, sometimes a coincidence is just a coincidence.
Gaius: Not where Dragoon a.k.a the Dolma a.k.a Emrys a.k.a Merlin is involved.
Arthur: Oh, wait, hold on, excuse me.
[turns to Merlin]
Arthur: The Dolma? Seriously?
Merlin: Hmmm? What?
Arthur: How come I don't know that? I know all of the aliases.
Merlin: Darling, nobody knows all of them… not even me.

I mean I get it's hilarious that Merlin had to turn himself into Dragoon and the Dolma, I get the joke is that it's him in desguise BUT
I can't help thinking of an AU where Dragoon and Dolma are actually separate characters (still played by Colin Morgan because why not) and they are actually Merlin's great aunt and uncle from his father's side. And every time they need an outside sorcerer so Merlin doesn't blow his cover Guias is just like "well now you mention it I'm pretty sure your father has a mad old aunt who survived the purge we could try find" and as the series goes on it's just Merlin learning more about his paternal family who are a bunch of weirdos living in the middle of no where who don't give a hoot about fate or destiny or anything like that but I guess they'll help with King Arthur out if their long lost twink nephew asks nicely.

Some days I'm Dolma or Dragoon. Basically I'm an old crockery hag is what I'm saying.

Here’s a piece of the fanfic that I’m making, based on the idea of Arthur thinking Dragoon and Dolma being Merlin’s grandparents :D
“Arthur was fucked. Truly and wholly fucked.
About a month ago Merlin revealed that he didn’t just have magic but was magic. It took some time for them to talk about it, but everything turned out fine. Merlin looked freer and happier, that was all that Arthur wanted for Merlin. He wanted him to be free and happy.
Then Merlin started to tell Arthur everything that he has missed, been left out of. Which, to Arthur’s dismay, is a lot. Jesus, he gets attacked a lot.
Merlin talked about his first day, first fight, everything. At some point he mentioned Dragoon, which got Arthur thinking about that weird and just plainly rude old sorcerer (or is he a wizard?, he should ask Merlin. Or Morgana, because apparently, she has magic as well and so does his new knight, which Arthur has to admit, should have remembered. It’s not every day you smuggle a druid boy.), he was something of a character, he was rude and somehow knew how he treated Merlin (Though it was blown way out of proportion, he checked with Merlin, just in case the old man was right). Dragoon also dressed weirdly, at least compared to other druids, but he also isn’t the most sane person out there”

Colin Morgan is a Master of Acting
This is a “duh obviously” statement, but I want to gush for a moment! Specifically, his performance as Dragoon and the Dolma!
I genuinely have trouble trying to register that these are the same person. I know they are, my brain knows they are, but trying to attach Colin to the Dolma is genuinely difficult.
The makeup is a huge factor, because he doesn’t really look like himself anymore, but his acting is the main reason. The voice he uses is the selling point. Colin is the one speaking. That’s his voice, but it sounds so completely different from his normal voice that it’s hard to mentally register that it’s Colin talking.
The same goes for Dragoon. His speaking voice is much higher than Colin’s, but he also speaks much deeper sometimes. The line in the GIF is the best example, because his voice turns so deep and hoarse while yelling at Uther. It is so difficult to connect this, to this:
There’s plenty of actors who make appearances in cinema in costumes or makeup that obscures most of their identity, but 99.9% I can see through it to the actor underneath. In this case, I have to force myself to see through it, to imagine the Dolma walking around talking like Colin, or Colin speaking like Dragoon while dressed as Merlin. Trying to imagine that is difficult to comprehend even though my brain knows it’s true.
Johnny Depp is a good example, but I can always see through it to him. Same with Michael Sheen! Both are incredibly talented and do become their characters entirely, but somehow I can always see them.
I can see Colin when I watch other shows with him in it, like Humans or benjamin, but that’s because he looks like himself so I can literally see Colin on screen. With the Dolma and Dragoon, it’s like having blinders on. I can’t see Colin.
That takes serious talent, to disappear so entirely into a role that viewers have trouble imagining it’s you.

You think you have a problem? I read a Tumblr post that made me ship two characters who are canonically the exact same person, disguised

I love that Merlin takes the chance to speak his mind to Arthur everytime he’s disguised as Dragoon and also The Dolma.
