GAAAAH!!!!! I'm sorry, but I just couldn't resist...
I... I just...
GUUUUUHHHHHH!!!!!!
Gwen: Everyone's talking about your marriage to Elena. I know you said that it isn't what you wanted, but I also know that... you can't always have what you want. I know that very well.
Arthur: Is what I want really that insane?
Gwen: Yes, Arthur. From anyone's perspective, apart from yours and mine, it's completely insane.
Arthur: Then I'm happy being insane! It sure is better than being miserable.
Gwen: I don't think she will make you miserable. She has a good heart.
Arthur: As do you!
Gwen: We both know we can't be.
Arthur: If I do it... If I marry her, what will you do?
Gwen: I will watch you grow into the king that Camelot deserves. It is as it should be.
I know, I know, we've had enough Arthur-almost-marries-an-enchanted-girl-or-mythical-creature storylines already, and this one wasn't all that original, really, but... but but but... JUST LOOK AT THEM!!!
LOOK AT HIM!!! Look at that glorious man!pain and the frelling tears in his eyes! TEARS! IN HIS EYES!!!
And GWEN! Trying to be strong and convince herself it's for the better while at the same time her voice was breaking and she could barely look at him. GUH! THESE TWO!!!
I don't care, I'm starting my vid right now! I wanted to wait until next week (because ONCE AGAIN, the preview makes it look like it will be another great episode for shippers), but I just can't wait anymore. And this episode gave me a LOT of great material to work with for my vid.
I mean THE LOOKS!!!! So many wonderful looks between them!
And I don't know if anyone else noticed it, but I thought the ending was the cutest thing ever. Right after Arthur flirted with Gwen, he just skipped merrily up the stairs in such a cute and precious way, like a fool in love.
HOW IS THAT NOT ADORABLE???
