Merlin rewatch -- S4 Deleted Scenes

Ep9 - Morgana and Shade Lancelot

"I will not disappoint you, my lady."

Really like how Katie played Morgana here. It's hard to say what exactly it is, but I think there's sadness, a part for the tragic fate she bestowed upon Lancelot's soul, a part for the past life she's lost, perhaps? She knew enough about Lancelot to fill him in the history. She knew who "his lady" is. Maybe she's sad that no one will speak to her with such respect, devotion, and love anymore (poor Agravaine xd). She is so pathetic now that she has to make her own mindless doll who would worship her. Or maybe she simply falls back to a moment of nostalgia, remembering the time when she was content being the lady of the house

Morgana and Shade Lancelot have an interesting dynamic that I'd love to see more~ Just keep him in the cave and let Arwen marry and everyone will be happier xd

Merlin rewatch -- S4 Deleted Scenes

Ep4 - Fathers

Merlin and Arthur talk about their lost fathers!

It's so, so sweet😭Perfect timing too, after Uther's death just previous episode. Almost seem like that's the reason they put the dragon egg story here. But then it's cut, so... ?

It's rare as it is that Merlin shares with Arthur something about himself, more so in the later seasons. Their relationship in s4 starts to turn in a weird direction so it'd be really nice to show that yes they have something in common and they still talk like normal friends! They don't only talk about Camelot and traitor and destiny! I feel like in s4 that's all they talked about...

Merlin couldn't tell Arthur about Balinor at the time because the dragon attack; Arthur didn't get to talk to Merlin last episode because Merlin was busy playing Dragoon. Now they both get a chance to do that! Why would you cut that...?

Arthur's expression and voice are so soft and gentle I'm melting 🫠Another similar moment is in s3 when he tried to give advice to Merlin about fighting with father figure (the one where Gaius was being awful because he found his old lover). He is a lot better at comforting and giving advices~~ no hitting this time XD

"... knowing your father would be proud of you." "You're right."

Merlin's beautiful smile at the end...!

That said, I can't decide if I want it in this episode or not. On one hand, it's about the only place they can naturally bring up Merlin's father. On the other hand, I kind of hate everyone in this episode, and the awful stew joke in this episode... so it might actually be a good thing they cut it, so I can hate this episode wholeheartedly...

Ep3 - Arthur talks about magic

If we cut half of Dragoon's bad jokes we can have this scene you know...

It's not like, super well written, but it'd still be good to see more of Arthur's thoughts on magic and the law! Seeing him recognise that a lot of bias comes from hurt and hatred and maybe the reality isn't what they think!

I do hope that if they're going to mention Gwen's father, either of them would remember that someone's magic saved his long before he was killed for helping sorcerer... and that he wasn't killed by magic, but by the law of Camelot. That'd be more helpful in Arthur's dilemma now, no? And Gwen could also offer something more concrete for Arthur's consideration, instead of again telling Arthur to trust himself without actually having an opinion.

Ep1 - The Sigil Scene

I think everyone can probably memorise this whole scene by heart xd

I don't want to get into what it means for Arthur to give Merlin the sigil because 1) I'm not an expert 2) I'd really love to push more platonic merthur agenda instead of the other.

I do still believe that this scene should be in the final cut. The alternative scene of the similar conversation ("You never fathom me out?") in the episode sounds very out of place. This one fits so much better. Yes, Arthur's been thinking about dying this whole trip because he plans to sacrifice himself, not because they lose the fire (for stupid reason) and Dorocha can get them any second.

🥹🥹

Of course Arthur would want to talk it out a bit with Merlin when they had alone time at the campfire! Knowing that Merlin would not take advantage of his vulnerability, would say the encouragement he needs and mix it with light teasing and makes everything feel easier. And Arthur also gives something to Merlin! Not just taking what Merlin has to offer. Love how soft and gentle the whole scene is.

Hey Google, how do I cope with not being my favorite person's favorite person and having to deal with the fact that I can't treat my friends the way I want to because the way I want to is inherently romantic in nature according to society?

around the time of diana’s ect treatments, dan asks natalie if she’s okay. she always deflects, so his concern manifests in different ways.

when natalie gets home late, there are always leftovers in the fridge, because dan cooked a meal and waited for hours for natalie to walk in, and when she didn’t he packed it away so she could heat something up easily whenever she needed to.

the belongings that natalie dumps on the floor when she gets in are laid carefully on the kitchen counter the next morning.

the shoes she cast off at the stairs are set side by side at the door.

her favorite childhood snack is slipped into her backpack, because dan knows she still likes it.

dan leaves her notes the way he used to when she was younger. natalie doesn’t open any of them until after diana has left.

i’m just. thinking about dan being a worried dad and not knowing how exactly to help his daughter.

After one brief night-- Short as a piece of the reeds Growing in Naniwa bay-- Must I forever long for him With my whole heart, till life ends? (Ogura Hyakunin Isshu, Poem 88)

KHRrarepair Week 2026 Day 2 - Sky Day: Be Careful What You Wish For | Forbidden Love AU

based of this hibayama fic written by amayuki-san! such a brilliant story to showcase the darkness within hibari's heart while also showing how cunning yamamoto can be. 😇

two people desiring something that they can't give to each other, yet one night is enough to satiate the burning desire within them, like a beautiful dream that you can't remember after you wake up...

THEY DON'T HAVE TO ADD THIS SCENE IN THE ANIME, WHO DIRECTED THIS PART I JUST WANT TO TALK

okay sorry, i got a bit too excited there but OH MAN NO WONDER PEOPLE SHIPPED THEM THIS IS THEE HIBAYAMA MOMENT OMG

like hibari can just throw the ring at yamamoto so he can cure himself of the poison like he did with gokudera

but NO.

he's holding yamamoto's hand with so much gentleness, he even do the honor of putting the ring on the damn monitor to cure him...

AHHHHHH I CAN'T THIS IS TOO MUCH FOR MY HEART AHHHHHHHHHHH

#it’s gold #otp #ahhhh #I also recently realized this scene existed lol #insane #hibayama #yamamoto takeshi #katekyo hitman reborn

a lot of people who meet him would assume that Yamamoto, when angry, would have the same fever bright gaze he gets when he's ready to kill

But no, that's wrong. That interpretation neglects to account for the part where he enjoys the thrill of the hunt, the predator in him who can’t help but seek out the best ways to go for the kill, that instinct that makes him a natural born hitman.

When angry… When truly pushed? Yamamoto is at his calmest. A quiet rain, steadfast and certain. The sort of thing where you aren’t too concerned at first. It’s not a deluge. The sky hasn’t opened up and dropped a sudden, punishing sheet on you, drops like needles on your skin.

Instead… He is a slowly mounting terror as you realize that seemingly normal shower isn’t stopping. The waters are rising. Your feet still touch the ground, but for how long? How long until you drown while those deep brown eyes watch you do it with nary a flinch.

People who live in the mountains will tell you. It’s not the rain you need to worry about.

It’s the flood it triggers.

i've been thinking about this one again, and i think i was reading this fic while drawing this one? idk maybe lol

i think what makes me like gokuyama more than the reverse is how in this dynamic, gokudera has to use all of his wits to win yamamoto over. but gokudera is also pretty insensitive, despite being a clever one, so if there's one person who have the most difficulty reading yamamoto, it's him 😂

also the way robo-san and isobe-san wrote gokudera to be overthinking every single steps he took in pursuing yamamoto is so in character, it really amused me when it's revealed that yamamoto is not only aware of what's going on, but is actually playing along from the beginning just because he likes gokudera too much lol

and that's what i think a lot of bottom yama shippers get right about him, he's too kind, lenient even but also surprisingly cunning. the kind of guy that enjoys seeing someone he loves suffered a bit before helping them lol

and the push and pull is what i enjoyed in gokuyama 😇🫶💗

#yamamoto takeshi #gokuyama #katekyo hitman reborn #bottom yama yay #well I actually read both since I don't think position should matter to the relationship dynamic xd #but a lot of time there is a certain dynamic stereotype depending on it and to me there is less chance of ooc when Yama bottoms haha

the setting is: If the total amount of internal flame isn’t enough for 27 to function like a normal person, his body will first fall asleep… If even sleep can’t replenish it, his body will unconsciously absorb flame (just like parallel world Byakuran). The problem is… 27’s flame capacity is already much higher than a normal person’s. So, it’s like he can absorb without limit…

#insane concept #I love it #katekyo hitman reborn #sawada tsunayoshi

litera1lywhat3ver

making all of the ynt characters aspec bc im aroace and i can do what i want, in no particular order:

Yuru

aromantic asexual, full stop

has never experienced any attraction ever and frankly does not get the hype

"while you were out falling in love i studied the bow and arrow"

Asa

cupioromantic and cupiosexual

really likes the idea of having a crush/partner bc it makes her feel more like a normal teenager

doesn't realize that she actually Does Not feel that stuff

Gabby

apothisexual, possibly some flavor of arospec? doesn't really seem interested in romance in general tbh

saw someone once point out how she's always fully covered/in baggy clothes even in her pjs, maybe she doesn't like feeling 'exposed' (and also where im pulling the repulsion from)

gets in a qpr with asa

Dera

grayromantic

lowkey also seems like a hopeless romantic at the same time

emphasis on the hopeless

Hana

Demiaroace

has had a few crushes in the past but never did anything about them

only has eyes for Jason Statham

Ken

aroace bc he's my favorite and im projecting

likes romance as a concept (in movies/books/etc.) but freaks out at the thought of it happening to him

"im just not old enough to have crushes, that's something that older kids experience"

Jin

asexual, maybe quoiromantic

completely oblivious to peoples attraction towards him

never got into relationships bc he simply had bigger things to worry about

Asuma

grayaroace

not really interested in relationships, kind of the "whatever happens, happens" type but nothing ever happens

tbh even if he was allo i dont think he'd fall in love easily or do anything much about it

Hikaru

maybe demiaroace?

not opposed to having a partner but would never get one bc he doesn't want to get them involved with the clan

all of his stories involve the power of friendship #hellyeah

Natsuki

either alloace or romance-favorable arospec

mainly wants to use dating as a way to get out of the clan, but would preferably like to get actual romance out of it too

hates dating apps but they're lowkey her only hope

Fuyuki

aroace

got confessed to a lot when he was younger, felt bad about turning them down so often

did not understand at all why so many people liked him though

Haruo

aromantic, possibly acespec

genuinely did not realize he was aspec for the longest time, thought everyone was like him

"why is everyone so focused on relationships we literally have jobs to do"

Akio

asexual

probably had the "something's wrong with me/i'm broken" asexual experience :/ sorry buddy

his asexuality made him feel even more isolated than he already felt

Ivan

aroacespec? idk i don't really think about him that much, sorry ivan fans

tbh he seems like the type to not be into that stuff in general bc he has better things to do

"fuck bitches get money"

Anna

aroace bc she's my other favorite and im projecting again

decided to have a "crush" on Ivan bc teenage girls are supposed to have crushes

"maybe i've never had a crush because everyone is ugly"

Left and Right

throwing them here to say that all the tsugai are aroace, fight me

Left and Right also just don't really get the particulars of romance

the only advice they give is "communicate or break up"

#yes!#love this!#like really #eye-opening #for my own self identity #sort of #cupioromantic #quoiromantic #never knew these ways of describing aromantism 👀#might look more into it…#yomi no tsugai

KHR is forever my favourite little ‘lore makes no sense’ series. Usually that’s a bad thing, I enjoy my lore detailed and understandable but here? Everything is so batshit insane you just kind of give up like. What the hell sure, these kids are mafia and used to killing and the main character pointedly doesn’t want to join the mafie but no one considers his opinion. What the hell, sure, there are flames that for some reason only mafias use and no one else ever not the government no one ever. What the hell, sure, there’s a bunch of canon parallel world and a dude who can travel between them and collected himself a squad from different world. Sure. Whatever. Of course there’s a shadow family with opposite attributes for some reason, gravitation as opposed to sky. Which are totally separate from all other flames that others have. Sure. Of course there’s a big dark evil prison and of course there’s a noodle shop owner in a funky hat who has known everything about lore all along, of course there’s previois babies, of course the main character is the one to solve it all. Of course he looks like a copy of his ancestor of ten generations ago. Of course power up includes a bunch of new jewellery and a cute pet winx style. No one has remembered we are mafia and supposed to be criminals for a while. Of course there’s a random bazooka that can exchange you with yourself ten years from the future

What the hell, sure
