Oh, Hush, My Dear, It's Been A Difficult Year

“How the hell did you block that with a shield?!” They asked, somehow confused at the concept of what a shield is supposed to do.

Reincarnation Fic Idea

We usually get reincarnation fics from Arthur and Merlin’s perspective but I think it would be funny to see it from everyone else’s perspective. 

As soon as Arthur wakes up and rises from the lake it triggers everyone’s memories of the past lives, Gwen, Morgana, Lance, Gwaine, Leon, Percival, Mordred, Elyan. Cue guilty Morgana and redemption arc. Morgana devises a plan to bring them all together and while they are understandably unhappy to see her, she informs them that the reason they must have regained their memories is that Arthur must have risen from Lake Avalon.

Cue panic when they realize that an Arthur from 1500 years in the past is wondering around in the modern day world looking for Camelot. 

Gwen: He must be so scared. He’s out there looking for a Camelot that no longer exists!

Gwaine: If he’s not in a mental hospital. Going around saying I’m King Arthur of Camelot with steel armor and a sword doesn’t scream sane.

Leon: I hope he hasn’t attacked anyone. God, what if he’s in jail.

Elyan: He’ll have food in a mental hospital or jail at least.

Gwen: He has no money, no food, no home, no family! We have to find him!

They go on a search while running into multiple shenanigans and learning how much they relied on Merlin while they are all worried sick for Arthur.

Meanwhile, because Merlin had hundreds of years to prepare for this and is on top of everything

*At Merlin’s farmhouse in Wales* 

Arthur: *lying on his and Merlin bed in a robe, his hair clipped back, face mask on, legs kicking back and forth in the air, eating popcorn while watching period dramas*

Ace: Do you truly think so little of me?

Dadan: Ace, I thought the world of you.

From this:

Ace and Luffy: We had a brother. His name was Sabo.

To this:

Luffy: I had two brothers. Their names were Ace and Sabo.

To finally:

Luffy and Sabo: We had a brother. His name was Ace.

How Whitebeard ~forced~ made Ace join the crew

Whitebeard: Be my son.

Ace: I refuse, you old Geezer.

Whitebeard: I refuse as well.

Ace: What?

Whitebeard: I refuse your refusal. My son now.

Marco: Welcome aboard, Our new brother.

Ace: This is Kidnapping.

Thatch: We like to call it forced adoption.

Ace: I'm the son of Gol D. Roger. How's that?

Whitebeard: Gurararara! Doesn't matter whose blood you have. You are my son now.

Ace: What is wrong with you people?

Izou: You will love us eventually.

One thing that I keep forgetting, that makes me absolutely feral every time I remember it, is who Merlin is in Arthur's POV.

We, as an audience, know how capable, powerful and trustworthy Merlin is. It's so obvious to us and we know how much he deservers Arthur's trust and respect.

We go "Ha ha, Arthur is so oblivious" or "I can't believe Arthur said that to Merlin".

But that's the thing. We keep forgetting how unaware Arthur is of who Merlin actually is.

To Arthur, Merlin is some peasants boy who came out of nowhere. Somebody who acted way above his station. Someone who has no notable skill.

And he STILL trusts Merlin more than anyone else.

He doesn't know he's a powerful sorcerer like we do. To him, he's just some guy. A servant.

And we know that Arthur isn't someone who judges by station, but the sheer amount of trust he places in Merlin is absolutely beautiful.

Merlin knew about the destiny. Arthur didn't. And he was still so helplessly devoted to Merlin.

Imagine how it will he like if Cale gave all the dragons a rubik's cube to solve. Since dragon are prideful, great and mighty, they will not ask for help. No they will not. Just like that it continued for days.

And Cale just solves it in 5 seconds

Did he smell like oranges, Kageyama?

Have you found him, Akaashi?

Did he leave you, Kenma?

Did you promise, Shirabu?

Did you date her and love again, Iwaizumi?

Was he the brightest star up there, Tsukishima?

Everyone: Cyclopes are monstrous, aggressive creatures. They are extremely dangerous.

Percy, Grover and annabeth looking over at Tyson, the most innocent person you could ever meet, who is asleep surrounded by cats and is using nico as a teddy bear: very dangerous it seems

Nico, wearing tyson's shirt: I'm going to be crushed by love and I did not approved of this.

Nico has accepted the prophecy of being Tyson's teddy bear.

An AU where Merlin is literally a God in Mordred’s eyes. Like, a genuine God.

In this AU Mordred and Merlin’s relationship is not fucked up by prophecy. So, everytime, kindhearted Merlin saved Mordred without hesitation. And Mordred grew up in a Druid camp that reinforced the idea that Emrys was a literal god. So naturally, HE WORSHIPPED MERLIN.

Once Arthur became king and magic was legalised, Mordred came to Camelot to become a knight because that was the best way to serve Emrys.

But when he arrived at Camelot, he struggled to comprehend the fact that Merlin was… human???? A very clumsy one, in fact. The rest of Camelot, though might know about Merlin magic, did not know how great ‘Emrys’ actually was so they were just confused, concerned, and/or entertained by Mordred’s ‘crush’ on Merlin.

He would stare at Merlin the entire first meal they had together, and people would be like: awww, Sir Mordred is crushing on Merlin so hard!!

Mordred: Emrys??eats??food?Food??Is ?eaten?by? Emrys?emrys?consumes?meal????

Or when he saw Merlin tripped on the training field

Mordred: i think the area is cursed. Strongly cursed.

Leon: what—

Mordred: THEN WHY ELSE WOULD EMRYS TRIPPED?????

Arthur: So, how have you adjusted to life in Camelot so far? Is there anything that is bothering yo—

Mordred: Merlin

Arthur: what did my stupid manserva- I mean Court Sorcerer do-

Mordred: I saw him drank water today

Arthur:

Mordred: He just drinks water????? From glass?????? Like?? He drank?? Water???? You know??? Literal water????????????? For drinking???HE??needs??water?to??live?why??

Morgana: why did I saw Mordred ran out of the meeting room screaming that you guys are trying to ‘Destroy his faith in his religion’. You knights better not bully him because he is a druid and has magic—

Gwaine: I told him Merlin is not here because he needs to take a shit.

Lancelot: Hey, Mordred, I noticed that Merlin has not received the note I asked you to deliver to him yet.

Mordred: But I already send it to him?

Lancelot:

Lancelot: Tell me how

Mordred: I burned it at the altar

Lancelot: what altar—

Mordred: and pray to him, as one should???

Merlin: WHY IS THERE SOMEONE SCREAMING IN MY HEAD THAT I HAVE AN IMPORTANT MEETING TOMORROW AT NOON!?

Or when they went on a long mission or hunting and Merlin, out of his old habit, made food for the knights

Mordred: ‘this is the most excellent food ever had bestowed on me, I shall never forget about this Emrys. I will pray to you even harder. I am the luckiest Druid to ever live—- ‘

Percival: … is the stew that good?
