Merthur (Merlin BBC)

It's called Merthur, or Marthur, Merlin/Arthur or Arthur/Merlin, and even if I've never seen it called Arlin I guess it's still possible

To me this slash is rather obvious. It's like the authors didn't get that subtext was meant to be subtle. If you've watched the show once and if you're aware of the existence of the word "Slash", you can't not have thought about it, concerning Merlin and Arthur.

Their relationship is a bit of a cliché: their first encounter is a disaster, they don't like each other from the beginning and, slowly very quickly, they're ready to risk their lives for the other one.

But even if their story isn't really original, they're just too cute. Physically, you have to fall for Merlin's cheekbones and Arthur's jawline. And the fact that those two have wonderful blue eyes doesn't help when you try to refrain the envy to yell "eyesex!!" anytime they're in the same room xD

Apart from that, their paths are intertwined, their destinies are linked, they're two sides of the same coin, blahblah, and the Slash Dragon isn't helping you to keep calm.


So, was that a good introduction, y/y?
And since I'm not good at picspamming, check this out

It's rare that I like a pairing with young men but those guys make me forget their age, they are adorable.

oh I love them ! I can't wait for the next season!

Merthur, I love that name
They always make joke to each other, the relationship prince/servant is so funny ^^
even if I ship Merlin with Morgana, those two will always be slashable <3
and I love the picspam you post sydney

You're right, the slash in this show is SO not subtle. I slash Morgana and Gwen too, some scene are just too cute to be true.

There are lost of great picspam on LJ

I remember that i read a lot of slash fics after I watched the show, and in the end, I wondered if all of this wasn't completely made up in the fan's mind, because, you know, that kind of things happens a lot... I mean, when I watched SGA's 3rd season after having read loads of slash fanfics I was expecting John and Rodney to make out anytime they were on their own

So I rewatched episode 1, and it was strange because I thought "WTF! Everything is here, it's not some fangirls' fantasy"
