only for you

Friendly reminder: Arthur screwed up to get to Ismere and find Gwaine, yet he automatically rushes off to protect Merlin, leaving everyone else behind. There is no way to keep them apart (not even death, not even death) #merlinbbc

In the freezing cold for days, with no food and no help—risking their lives every single second—and yet they still manage to get themselves into situations like this and bicker as always. One of the reasons why I love them so much 😅 #merlinbbc

It's always a good moment to share this beautiful, unfortunately deleted, scene "Not without you"... #merlinbbc

Love when Merlin becomes Emrys and his dark side—even a cruel side, I could Say —comes out completely with no brakes. Yet, he is always led by love and the instinct to protect Arthur; because that is who Merlin is: someone who loves without limits... #merlinbbc

These are Emrys and Arthur: two halves of a perfect war machine—two people who share the same intentions, heart, mind, and power. This, and much more, is what we were meant to see of the two of them This Is the real Merlin and Arthur Pendragon #merlinbbc

Never underestimate Arthur Pendragon’s tactical cunning—even when you think he’s about to freeze to death! #merlinbbc

Yes, Mordred—Emrys fears you, but not because you have magic, nor because you might reveal his secret. He fears you because you will kill the person who means the most to him—the one person who matters more than anything else... #merlinbbc

I love these few seconds of Merlin: the exchange of cold stares with Mordred, his resentment toward Arthur for not listening to him, and—fantastic!—the way he just wants to kill the man who dared to strike his King! #merlinbbc

Please, look at Merlin’s face the moment he catches sight of Mordred... He turns ashen, frozen—as if he has slipped once again into the vision that has been upsetting him for days. From now on, he will never be the same. Nothing will ever be the same #merlinbbc

Ah, that natural death wish that characterizes Merthur! Whenever it comes to protecting one another—a trait that has yet to grow tiresome ( like anything else about the two of them, actually) One of the reasons we love them so much #merlinbbc

Two things two: - Merlin is the most powerful sorcerer on Earth, but his brain goes haywire when he’s hungry - Arthur is the most powerful warrior in Albion, but he ends up trapped because he can’t bear the thought of not protect his servant 😅 #merlinbbc

I don’t know why I find this moment so fascinating. Arthur’s gesture is appropriate—Merlin isn’t very good at staying quiet—but it’s longer, as if it were normal; in some way, it becomes intimate (as is often the case with their physical contact) #merlinbbc

Merlin and Arthur did not know everything about each other, and yet they knew one another. They did not need to know, because together they are one #merlinbbc

The contrast between Arthur, who just wants to rest, and Merlin, who desperately wants to warn him of the danger. The urgent need to speak. The final promise to protect him with his very being—a promise that will become his obsession... #merlinbbc

In Season 5, Merlin— Emrys, now—is, partly driven by his visions, much more possessive when it comes to Arthur. Phrases like "I worry about you" and "I will protect you" come to his lips more easily, strong in his significance of his role in Arthur’s life #merlinbbc

- the softness with which Arthur calls "Merlin" - their mutual concern - the intense gazes that speak volumes, worth a thousand unspoken words - the haunting music Everything is PERFECT (I read once that in the script, Arthur says "Merlin, it's cold here") #merlinbbc

This scene always makes me think of "Secrets" by OneRepublic, because Merlin is so tired—weighed down by the burden of everything he has to keep hidden. "I'm sick of all the insincere So I'm gonna give all my secrets away"... #merlinbbc

Annis is smart, she remembers that Merlin is a "fool"—but, obviously, she realized that he is "Arthur's fool." Indeed, Merlin does not deny it, and neither does Arthur; with nothing more than a dazzling smile from the King, Merlin becomes a "fool" as well #merlinbbc

"Now, more than ever, it is you and you alone that can keep Arthur safe". I understand the dragon’s good intentions, but these words just mess with Merlin’s head even more He’s already quite panicked... #merlinbbc

This scene is crazy because you can clearly see the no return point: when Arthur’s voice pulls him out of the vision, a thousand emotions cross Merlin’s face, and you know that nothing will ever be the same again Colin's acting is exceptional #merlinbbc
