What Arthur feels for Merlin is a deeper sense of friendship, than love. Its hurts Merlin, but he knows Arthur be rather upset if anything would happen to him. Arthur will always be his hero and his friend, no matter what. He rather have that than nothing at all.
Thank you to everyone still liking and favouriting this video eight years on. This video makes me quite sad, because it was very much the beginning of an era - Merlin turned out to become the fandom I was most fond of, for it's five years of airing. Merlin/Arthur remain my ultimate OTP to this day. What nostalgia this video gives me.
@longhairedbill I don't think I was introduced to Merlin as slash - it's been almost a year, now, so I can't be sure - but I do remember that particular scene making me thing that this was going to be like that time I watched the first six seasons of Xena (in a month, which was insane, and I had Gabrielle's voice stuck in my head for AGES afterwards). Which I can aptly describe as: Subtext. Romance. Ambiguous stuff about intertwined destinies. Smooching. More subtext. "What, us, gay? Pffft."
I absolutely adore this video! The editing is wonderful and at times truly inspired. My favorite part is at 3:28, as Arthur watches Merlin prepare to drink from the chalice. Awesome character moment in the video.
Anybody else reminded of Jack and Ianto from Torchwood when they watch these two? I definitely am. ^^ The dynamic is similar, and even the look of the characters.
...If you think about it...they ARE canon! I mean, the dragon told Merlin that their fates were intertwined, right? Can you GET a better definition of canon then that?:P:):):):):)
@ijustpostcomments Pfft indeed, because there's so much more in it. I mean yes, two guys in love are called gay, but just as with a het couple, they can either be truly destined or not. And M/A certainly are. Ambiguously, only because people assume destiny is purely duty, no pleasure, but really, destiny means connecting yourself to your highest energy (purpose) which feels really GOOD! lol. The duty is sharing that connection with a lesser advanced world.
@TeamIDontCare I had a similar idea where they have an episode where one of the guys gets bodyswapped with one of the girls and they kiss or say "I love you" to each other or something. It'd be fodder for the slash vidders

i love them, like soo much. Arthur&Merlin are the only slash couple i have ever loved. but your name... Drarry..... i hate draco&harry as a couple. Just so you know. lol.
I'm not completely certain but I think that's when Arthur let's his anger about not being taken seriously by uther when they told him about Valiants snakes out on Merlin.
@ArlinFTW Unfortunately we are yet to recieve that button, however i do agree it would be a highly beneficial one. Click it whenever an imbecile or homophobe comes within range of a slash fanvid. Brilliant.

Yeah and the dragon said to Merlin :"the half can never hate what make it whole" soo😀

If you watch the Dragon scenes in Merlin, look to the wall behind him and you can see a light switch xx

A video IMO but I have been wrong before //sarcasm//

I don't think shes ugly, i just think she is a boring character (has no real role to play like everyone else).
@longhairedbill In exchange for the best comment ever, I give you the internet. Seriously. Best. Comment. Ever.
