Merlin is a god. Merlin will guide the once and future king of Albion into greatness.

Merlin is a kid, who knows none of his destiny. Ever since he was little in the darkness of the night he’d hear another boys voice in the back of his mind. The boy sounded about his age but it must’ve been his imagination. Merlin continues to believe this though he cannot ignore the pleading boy he’s never met. The voice always seems to be crying wishing for a different life. One away from his father who in Merlin’s opinion is a piece of shizzle. The voice pleads for a mother, for the comforting hold of a loved one. This is a privilege Merlin could afford. He always wished the boy in his mind could come live with him and his mother. In their tiny home he’d be loved and maybe he wouldn’t cry.

Merlin grew and with that so did his magic. He still heard the boy but he heard other voices. Wishing for freedom, escape from death, but the boys still had a stronghold in the young warlocks mind.

His mother sent him to Camelot. A dangerous place for someone like him but he trusted her and she trusted Giaus. The day he arrived he heard two voices almost immediately. ‘Please save me’ and ‘I’m sorry’ both voices sounded desperate. Merlin saw the townspeople gathered a man brought to be put to the slaughter. The king voice rained out from above “today we have yet another example of magic users. Magic is an evil thing that we must rid from our world before it overtakes it.” Merlin couldn’t find his breath. The glint of metal in the sun ‘please please I’m not ready to die’. In an instant the man was dead. Slaughtered as if an animal.

Merlin had saved the Prince from a witch ironic right? Not. The Prince was a absolute nightmare. But still in the quite of the night laid in his new room he hears the boys voice again ‘please someone hear me. I can’t I can’t’. Something itches in Merlin’s brain he feels like he can recognize the voice. He must’ve gone mad.

Just a little idea I had since I’ve read a couple fics where Merlin was a God who heard prayers. I’m think he can either hear people with magic or people connected to his destiny. And like when they’re on a mission they come across an abandoned Druid camp and Merlin finds an altar for himself. But this me shizzing around

this is going around twitter rn but im also super curious: please tell me your top four comfort movies that you’re always down to watch bc my friend thinks mine are ridiculous and now we’ve realised everyone’s version of “comfort” is hilariously different

TW: Pedophilia

Teenagers are rarely taught the reason why they can't consent to sex with adults.

And that's because teaching them that would completely unravel our coercion-based society.

It can be difficult to explain in detail the exact reason and all the specifics in a way that they will understand. But the simplest way to phrase it is that in some cases, even when someone agrees to something and even when they appear enthusiastic about it, there's too much of a power imbalance that it's no different than forcing them. Also, having power and being abusive doesn't require a conscious expectation to be obeyed.

Imagine a world in which every teenager understood that and was easily able to call out anyone who tried to convince them otherwise.

They'd know that there's no such thing as an employee consenting to working for a poverty wage, working in unsafe conditions, working long hours, or working without taking breaks. They'd know that there's no such thing as consenting to paying a bank overdraft fee. They'd know that there's no such thing as consenting to student loan debt. They'd know that there's no such thing as consenting to medical bills. They'd know that there's no such thing as consenting to generating profit for banks or landlords in order to have a place to live and being evicted or foreclosed when you lose your source of income. They'd know that there's no such thing as consenting to a police search. They'd know that there's no such thing as a child who's okay with their parents spanking them. They'd know that being dependent on someone does not mean that you can never criticize them. They'd know that if it's considered abusive to simply play along when someone obeys, then it has to be much more abusive to actively expect to be obeyed, which many adults do to them.

And people who benefit from a society based on coercion masquerading as freedom wouldn't like that.

So instead, teenagers are taught something dismissive. They're taught that what they want doesn't matter. They're taught that they're too young to know what love is. They're taught "it's the law". They're taught things that are insulting to their intelligence, which they'll naturally rebel against.

Alanis Morissette, Sorry to Myself/Haruki Murakami,1084

Hunith was probably constantly worried about Merlin. She did all she could and she new Camelot was dangerous but she didn’t know where else to send her son. Her only child she had to send directly into the line of fire.

Do you think she waited for a letter from Giaus saying he got caught? Constantly worried she would lose her only son.

Then when she finally gets to see him again I bet she was so relieved because he looked okay. Sure things were hard being the princes manservant and all but he was loved and she knew that. Even after see just how much Arthur cared about Merlin she just waited for that letter.

Fuck it we bawl (starts sobbing uncontrollably)
