#dragon pendragons

Ok so Merlin was sort of used to the way things were done by the time arthur was 21 one but then this little bitch got 4 times more temperamental what the actual fuck arthur

Well ok then you supercilious prat let’s see how you’d like your new shiny sword at the bottom of the lake (yes I know that Kilgharrah told Merl to hide it anyway but let’s just go with the idea that Merlin was feeling particularly spiteful)

everything continues relatively as normal up until after-2x13

then goes the mindfuck because???? arthur is???? not horrible???? doesn’t send him to stocks that often????? and is hissing at things at times???? and was that smoke coming out of his mouth????

naturally the logical course of action is to talk to the Great Dragon, who’s obviously not amused

“Young Warlock would you kindly just make up your mind whether I am supposed to stay away from your precious Camelot or not, I am an old, mighty dragon, not a dog”

but yess, he does, in fact, explain why that is. He seems greatly amused by that, too.

Cue the “screaming into the void” phase which lasts several weeks, maybe months.

But okay, they got it under control, especially since Merlin confessed about Balinor being his father. Not the warlock thing though, that’s still sEcReT

But then Morgana comes back. And plots to overthrow Uther, possibly killing Arthur in the process. But okay, Merlin can deal with that, right?

so I said Pendragons get stupid pleased when listening to their Dragonlord. Since there’s like only one left that means Merlin ‘aight.

So like. Would that mean.

Morgana sort of listens to him too?

like imagine that

Morgana: *off to fuck the shit up with Morgause (or Agravaine cuz by this point I fucked the original plot in so many ways I don’t even know) because fuck you Uther that’s why*

Merlin: *judging stare* the fuck do you think you’re going

Morgana:

Morgana: *grudgingly goes back to her chambers to sulk but THAT DOESN’T STOP HER FROM PLOTTING CURSE YOU YOU INCONVENIENT MANSERVANT*
