I'm trying to figure something out! (Also I didn't include the rest of the world because my hypothesis is specifically focusing on US/Canada vs England). (I separated Canada because that's where I live!)

[weidenwinde]

This is my third (and for now last) poll concerning your headcanons for what happens after series 5.

Here are the first two:

Does Merlin return to Camelot after Arthur's death?

Does Gwen remarry after Arthur's death?

Please vote and reblog if you haven't already because I'm really interested in the results.

Who rules Camelot after Gwen's death?

Her and Arthur's child (she is pregnant when he dies).

Her and someone else's child (she remarries after Arthur's death).

Someone of her choosing (she doesn't have children but appoints a successor).

Someone else who conquers Camelot during her reign.

No one (Camelot falls).

I'm really interested in people's headcanons for what happens after series 5 (or technically between the "Merlin in modern times"-scene and the rest of series 5). So I'm going to make some polls.

Starting with:

Does Merlin return to Camelot after Arthur's death?

Yes.

Yes, but only for a while.

No / Only to say goodbye.

#sir leon’s long suffering has nothing on the suffering of the entire round table during report time MERLIN | 5x03 “The Death Song of Uther Pendragon”

[pippin-katz]

I am going to ask this question because there is a separate tag for all four of these spellings and I'm going to lose my fucking mind because there is a correct answer.

How do you spell Morgana's Arthurian last name?

le Fay

You don't get a "results" button because non-Merlin fans can weigh in on this too.

I put the answer under the "read more" line so people who don't know can vote honestly without unintentionally cheating if they would like.

Britannica (huge official encyclopedia) and Wikipedia (huge unofficial encyclopedia), and a billion other sites, on their articles regarding Arthurian Legend, spell it the first way: le Fay

I offer this poll to the Once and Future Fandom in hopes that other people with OCD like me will be saved from the hell of looking at four different tags that are the same thing but different spellings and not knowing which to use. I beg of you to spread this poll so that this madness is stopped once and for all! //sarcasm, joking, light hearted//

merlin and morgana could have been so much more. I dont mean it in a shipping sense, I mean a fucked up, obsessive rivalry where morgana knew about merlin's real identity for like. more than 5 minutes.

found this in my drafts. I don't remember what I was going to write exactly but apparently it was so stupid I couldn’t bring myself to finish typing the sentence

[merlin-knights]

I think that's a legitimate ending to the sentence.

[merlin-gifs]

The mandrake root is cruel; pierces the depths of your very soul. Pushes you into the very mere consciousness of what you fear and dread. Gwen, you have been so courageous but it was necessary. Gwen, you’re not alone now. You need never be alone again. I am the only one you can trust.  I am the only one you have left in the world. The others torment you, hate you.
