Merlin: Christmas Is Just Like Any Other Day In Camelot

Modern AU where Merlin has a favorite chinese restaurant that he goes to and he eventually befriends the owner, Kilgharrah. Every time Merlin asks him for advice, he just places a fortune cookie on the table and walks away.

‘‘Contained within this great kingdom is a great variety of people with a range of different beliefs. I am not the only one seeking to protect you - there are many more that believe in the world you are seeking to create. One day you will learn, Arthur, one day you will understand just how much they’ve done for you.’‘

- Gaius (to Arthur), Merlin (2008-2012)

It's always sunny in camelot

4 gay people looking at each other

Arthur: So, it's the first week of the new year. How's everyone doing?

Morgana: I crave murder.

Gwaine: I've concocted a drink that lets you go for five full days without sleep!

Elyan: Or so he claims. It has coffee, three different energy drinks, and five shots of espresso.

Merlin, twitching violently: I'VE TESTED IT. IT WORKS.

Gaius: I'm recording the progress of Merlin's slow but inevitable death.

Before I let you pass, I’ll give you a little advice, as  C o u r a g e , there are two more things you’ll need to complete your quest.  S t r e n g t h  and  M a g i c . ❦ for @achillces

Merlin + never quite believing that Arthur can get dressed by himself.

+ Bonus. Arthur the other 99% of the time:

i have a question (..i feel too awkward to ask at this point but still going to anyway)..

what is the origin of ‘Lionheart’ with regard to Merlin?

is it the song ‘King and Lionheart’, the fan-fiction of the same title, or something else from the show that i missed?

update: Merlin Offcial twitter is the origin..
