OOC
Okay so on my facebook I wrote as merlin for a short time and told this one Arthur I shipped it along with tons of other things. Like I said it was my otp and they instantly said they were more like brothers.
Like don’t be calling my ship brothers if I just said I otp it
it makes me feel uncomfortable
Like I blocked them and then they went on to rant at me. Like fuck off I reserve the right to block anyone that pisses me off.
can i just.
leave this parallel here.
[ I hate Kurt Hummel with a passion.
oh don’t mind me i’m just thinking about how this scene existed but was taken out and i can only imagine why (aka JOCK JEALOUS HIS BOYFRIEND IS TALKING ABOUT OTHER DUDES AND DEFEATS THEM MERCILESSLY TO IMPRESS HIM) also Gwaine honey, love of my life, you did good.
I was NOT jealous >.<

‘‘You found my father hot?’‘ Arthur pretended to pull a face before laughing a little. ‘‘Merlin, you might need help.’‘
“Gross, Arthur, what the fuck,” he says, pulling away with a horrified look on his face. Gross. “Uther legitimately wanted to kill me for just having magic. What the fuck. I meant you, moron. You were the king too.”
‘‘Okay come here, I’m sorry.’‘ He chuckled for a second, lightly cupping Merlin’s face and giving him a soft kiss. ‘‘Your magic is beautiful and he was an idiot for that, seriously, every part of you is beautiful.’‘
thekingofcamelotx:
‘‘Wanna see me naked that badly?’‘
A small laugh left Arthur’s lips, even though he was inwardly cursing himself for saying something like that. He hadn’t meant to make such a flirty comment but it had slipped out.
He followed after him, just beginning to slide his armour off and taking in the things around him with his eyes as he moved.
Merlin turns to look at Arthur with a bright red blush, the yes on the tip of his tongue. They could so easily change their relationship with a simple word, and he wants to. Gods, does he want to. Instead, though, with the maximum amount of self-control he can muster, he turns back around, leading Arthur down the hallway to the bedroom. “I’ve seen you naked plenty of times, clotpole.”
He stops in front of the dresser once they’re in the room, pulling open drawers and taking clothes out. He’s actually surprised to find clothes that fit Arthur that aren’t just old sweatpants and intentionally big t-shirts. Thanks, past Merlin. He hands the clothes to Arthur. “Here. You can change into these.”
‘‘Thanks.’‘
A half smile went over Arthur’s face as he began taking off his clothing before sliding into the new things. A lot of this new stuff confused him, the thing with a hood he was wearing honestly reminded him of a small version of a cloak. But the toggles were a little confusing.
‘‘What is- Ahh!’‘
He jumped slightly as he pulled on them, the hood instantly tightening and covering his entire face.
thekingofcamelotx:
Arthur glanced over at him, a half smile going over his pale lips. At first he’d not liked the dark haired man, finding him to be a complete idiot but deep down he’d admired the way he could stand up to him, there was something about the way he did that that brought him back down to earth. If he was totally honest with himself, he’d needed that.
Once the hair stylists were finished with him he made his way over to the other man.
‘’Did they do something to your eyes? They look a little brighter today.’’
Maybe it was just the light reflecting in them or something along those lines.
“Maybe it’s just because I’m angry that you’re so pretty,” Merlin replies, easily, as his makeup artists finish up with him. He beams at Arthur, leaning up towards him in the chair, period clothing stretching with him. He wants to reach out, take Arthur by his hair, and pull him into a kiss, but the whole reason they’d just had assistants fussing over them is because they’re insatiable.
It’s no wonder why fans wrote fan fiction about their characters, truly. Merlin knows he hasn’t exactly been subtle about Maurice’s crush on Archibald. Nor his crush on Arthur, thinking back on it. It’s a wonder the tabloids haven’t caught on.
He settles for gently placing his hand on Arthur’s cheek. “You’re lucky we have to be back on set in a few minutes, or all the stylists would be very cross with us.”
‘‘I’d apologize but I’m really not sorry about that in the least.’‘
A tiny smirk went over Arthur’s lips as he began running his fingers through his blonde hair, ignoring the stylists that were swatting at his hands. His hair never looked perfect. It was one of the things the fans loved most about his character. His messy hair and obvious crush on Maurice.
‘‘Hmm?’‘
Another smirk went over his lips.
‘‘Didn’t know you were one to follow rules Merlin? I’m surprised.’‘
thekingofcamelotx:
‘’Shut up Merlin.’’
Arthur rolled his eyes at him, running his fingers through his blonde hair and taking in the surroundings once more.
Merlin smirked as a thought crossed his mind. His mood had significantly improved now that they were bantering again, and that part of his brain that’s always been a little shit makes him take a half-step back, then say, “make me.”
‘‘Oh please, you would not be able to handle it if I did make you.’‘ Well.. that came out a lot... you know what. Fuck it. It’s been a while since he last had a kiss. And truthfully he’d always wondered.
Arthur instantly cupped Merlin’s cheeks, lightly brushing his lips across the other man’s.
‘‘Consider yourself made.’‘
thekingofcamelotx:
There it was. His mind seemed to snap open. For the first time in so long. Camelot. Merlin. The adventures they’d had. Mordred. The lake. “..Damn right you are.’’ He muttered, leaning in and pressing his lips against the dark haired man’s. ‘’Hmm, I remember an idiot servant I once had.’’ He teased.
Merlin rests a hand on Arthur’s cheek, unwilling to let him go too far now that he’s just got him back. He laughs, bright and happy and unrestrained, leaning in to peck his lips again. “I remember an idiot king I served. He was very hot.”
‘‘You found my father hot?’‘ Arthur pretended to pull a face before laughing a little. ‘‘Merlin, you might need help.’‘
thekingofcamelotx:
A sigh of relief left his lips. Well at least that had been.. somewhat of something resembling a laugh. “..I’m resisting a lot of urges to make fun of you, don’t get used to it.’’
Truthfully he felt better being here with Merlin once more, he felt complete again in a weird way. ‘’I guess..I missed you too in a strange way..’’
“I’ll endeavor not to,” he says, with a roll of his eyes, and then he smiles, big and wide, mood certainly lifted now that he’s got Arthur back. He wants to lean in and pull their faces close, kiss him and make sure Arthur knows just how much he means it, but he settles on hugging him again, arms wrapped around his shoulders tight.
The admission that Arthur missed him too doesn’t escape his notice, and he turns his head into the other’s neck, still smiling wide. Arthur hadn’t had the time to process everything the way Merlin had, hadn’t had to live through everything afterwards, but just knowing that there was a part of him that missed Merlin made him feel things he couldn’t quite put a name to. He pulls away completely after another second, turning to walk down the hallway to the cottage’s small bedroom. “C’mon, you’re getting new clothes.”
‘‘Wanna see me naked that badly?’‘
A small laugh left Arthur’s lips, even though he was inwardly cursing himself for saying something like that. He hadn’t meant to make such a flirty comment but it had slipped out.
He followed after him, just beginning to slide his armour off and taking in the things around him with his eyes as he moved.
thekingofcamelotx:
‘’Hmm.’’ Arthur put on a thoughtful expression for a moment. ‘’I guess I’ll take it.’’
“Oh, good. You do know how to settle for someone out of your league,” he says, and it’s on a laugh, but he knows he’s in Arthur’s league. Above him, even. “You might have to do that a lot.”
‘’I don’t really believe in the whole leagues thing.’’ Arthur shrugged. ‘’To me, everyone’s equal regardless of what they have or have not.’’
thekingofcamelotx:
‘’In your dreams idiot, I only do sincere once.’’
Arthur chuckled a little, messing up the other man’s hair. There were a lot of things different and even though he knew things might never be the same again, probably never would be. He was just glad to have his friend back by his side. Or maybe it was more the other way around.
“Oh, you do sincere more than that,” he says, laughing lightly, glad for the mood change. Merlin holds up his hand and starts counting. “Gwen, when you two finally got your shit worked out, and Lance, and Gwaine, and Morgana, when you liked each other, need I go on?”
‘’Shut up Merlin.’’
Arthur rolled his eyes at him, running his fingers through his blonde hair and taking in the surroundings once more.
open to arthurs! actor au based on this fic! (nsfw fic, but not thread)
When Merlin had gotten the role of Maurice, he knew it’d be his big break, even though it was a minor character. The streaming service it was on paid a lot of money, and they even let him use his natural accent, so he considered it a win. He’d expected the fan fiction, the endless amount of notifications once people decided they liked him enough, and even getting recognised on the street. He’d been an actor for years, now, it was nothing new.
What he hadn’t expected was falling for the man playing Maurice’s boss, Archibald Pendleton. Arthur Pendragon. He’d been dating Gwaine when they’d started the show, he and Arthur, but eventually that ended amicably, once Gwaine set his eyes on someone else, and Merlin had done the same towards Arthur.
Even then, they had a rough start. Merlin hadn’t liked Arthur’s holier-than-thou attitude at first, and their stubborn personalities clashed hard. Even now, staring at the blond ten feet away from him in the grand room, a historic English estate from the period their show was set in, Merlin felt some sort of anger rise in his throat at Arthur’s pretty eyes and sharp jawline and artfully-coiffed hair being fussed at by the hair stylists.
He couldn’t let it show, though. They had to film in ten minutes.
Arthur glanced over at him, a half smile going over his pale lips. At first he’d not liked the dark haired man, finding him to be a complete idiot but deep down he’d admired the way he could stand up to him, there was something about the way he did that that brought him back down to earth. If he was totally honest with himself, he’d needed that.
Once the hair stylists were finished with him he made his way over to the other man.
‘’Did they do something to your eyes? They look a little brighter today.’’
Maybe it was just the light reflecting in them or something along those lines.
thekingofcamelotx:
And there it was, yet another fucking moron who just expected him to have everything handed to him on a silver platter by his father. Arthur was super tempted to just call Gwen and say that he wasn’t going to do this. This guy knew literally nothing about him.
He rolled his eyes at him, not in the mood to continue this conversation and moved away to sit on the benches again. ‘’Do what you want, either way, I can always find something else to do.’’
Merlin sighs at him, eyes closing as he rubs his temples with his free hand now that Arthur has walked away. He could leave. He could turn around and walk away too. He could go solo and win another medal by himself, but he wants to do it with a partner, break the norm and skate with a man at the next Olympics. That’s the whole reason he told Lance to find him a partner.
“If you don’t want to wait to skate, there’s another rink-” He starts, but someone walks up to them, nervously holding a notebook and pen.
“Hi,” she says, looking towards Arthur. “I’m sorry to bother you, but are you Arthur Pendragon?”
Oh, fun. One of Arthur’s fans. Puck bunnies rarely recognise figure skaters, and he turns to leave, deciding that Lance can find someone else.
A half smile went over his lips as he noticed the young woman, gently taking her notebook and pen and autographing it with a small positive message as well, there was one thing he’d always loved about the ice, the fans.
‘’Yeah, that’s me.’’
He glanced over at Merlin for a fraction of a second before inwardly sighing. Well he might as well.
‘’This is Merlin.’’
He spoke, gesturing to the dark haired man.
‘’We’re going to be working together soon.’’
thekingofcamelotx:
‘’Currently, no, hopefully you soon enough.’’ Arthur winked at him before laughing a little. Wow, interestingly enough he wasn’t too bad at this whole flirting thing.
He bites his lip, and sees red capes fluttering in the wind as men rode by on horses, two swords - one thrown into a lake, and the other shoved into a stone - wielded by this blond man. The same blond sat atop a throne as if he was made for it, himself standing just off to the side, pride radiating from him in a smile. Swords and magic clashing as they fought for their lives. “Ah, unfortunately for you, I’m taken.” He leans in, close enough to breathe the same air as Arthur, close enough that Arthur could close the distance in a kiss, if he wanted. “Don’t you remember?”
There it was. His mind seemed to snap open. For the first time in so long. Camelot. Merlin. The adventures they’d had. Mordred. The lake. “..Damn right you are.’’ He muttered, leaning in and pressing his lips against the dark haired man’s. ‘’Hmm, I remember an idiot servant I once had.’’ He teased.
thekingofcamelotx:
He’d not even thought this was possible. Honestly he believed it was his fault. He knew it was. Getting killed by Mordred had been his fault. He’d executed the woman the druid had been in love with. Granted he’d had virtually no real choice but he should’ve been better.
He should’ve seen that Morgana was changing. He should’ve known that she was no longer the girl he had grown up with and that she needed someone to support her.
Their few hugs had never been this long but there was no one around to see right now so he really didn’t care in the least.
‘’Seriously? What on earth are you wearing?’’
Arthur asked after a moment, a soft laugh leaving his lips.
Merlin pulled away from the hug a little at the other’s question, laugh sounding watery. He rests a hand on Arthur’s shoulder, the other wiping at his cheek. He’d only been planning to stay at the lakeside house for a day or two before heading off again, since he doesn’t like to stick around the lake for too long. He would’ve known if Arthur had returned when he wasn’t there, anyways.
“This is what clothes look like now,” he says, glancing down at the t-shirt and jeans he had on. Frankly, it’s not all that different from what he used to wear, except for the fact that the t-shirt isn’t as long as his tunic was. Merlin kind of misses tunics, though. “You’ll need to get modern clothes, too…”
He probably had some sweatpants Arthur could borrow until they could get some new pants and shirts. In the meantime, he looks back at Arthur and smiles. “Don’t make fun of me for admitting this, but I missed you.”
A sigh of relief left his lips. Well at least that had been.. somewhat of something resembling a laugh. “..I’m resisting a lot of urges to make fun of you, don’t get used to it.’’
Truthfully he felt better being here with Merlin once more, he felt complete again in a weird way. ‘’I guess..I missed you too in a strange way..’’
