small intro-y post of sorts, but! this is an independent rp blog for gwaine from bbc merlin - i'm not making a promo quite yet, but you can find my rules here for those who are mobile-bound. since this blog is brand new, there's no IC writing up on it yet. so if i've followed you and you'd rather see how I write before deciding whether or not to interact, i'll link to one of my other rp blogs here, in case that's helpful! thank you for reading, and regardless of what you decide, I hope you have a great rest of the day. <3

SHOULD I WRITE START WRITING GWAINE EVEN THOUGH I'VE ONLY WATCHED HIS S3 EPISODES AND NOTHING ELSE SO FAR........ place ur votes.

watching more episodes today, but in the meantime, would anyone like a starter from gwaine's reincarnation verse?? i'm kind of a bit obsessed with it atm (always) and i think it'll be a good place to start while i'm still working my way through canon for canonverse threads!

also ftr i do not see gwaine as having a positive view of magic by default, at least with my current interpretation during the events of the series proper.

i write him this way just because i personally find it more interesting, and because i really like the idea of giving him an arc where he learns that his beliefs are wrong & hurting people, leading in to him changing his views but also having to come to terms with what it means that he's been wrong for so long?

i think he has a few lines in canon that indicate at least suspicion towards things of a magical nature, but iirc his stance on magic is never really made clear, so i recognize that not everyone is gonna have the same view as me on this one! however if this makes anyone uncomfortable, i'm more than happy to write threads where he starts out with a more magic-positive attitude. esp since i'm always down to explore multiple interpretations!

Literally just made a Tumblr to scream about her. I have no clue how anything works here 🫡

thinking about giving gwaine psychic abilities in a reincarnation verse. or canonverse even. like telekinesis, telepathy... that sort of thing. i don't have any particularly strong reason for this, i'm just being very self-indulgent, lol

thinking about making a sideblog for arthur and possibly morgana once i've finished going through the series properly too..... arthur was my original bbc merlin favorite and is still close to my heart, and i feel immense sympathy for morgana + she's the kind of character i tend to really like, too.
