On shipping, Arthurian style.

[prettyquotable]

Okay, so remember how I said a while back that I ship ~everyone~ in Merlin? Well, those days are over, baby. After much careful consideration have come to realise that my OTP is, in fact, Morgana/Gwen. (ALSO GWEN/LANCELOT (foreverandeveramen) BUT IDK IF WE'LL EVER SEE HIM AGAIN, WOE

RPF is so wrong it's right!

[prettyquotable]

Yeah, that's pretty much how I look at it, haha.

[in_the_end]

Seeing as I read some this morning, ticking 'Wrong' would be a wee bit hypocritical.

[prettyquotable]

Hahaha, yes that's true. :P

a;ldfja;lfjjas;fjafjafj!!!

YOUR OTP IS MY OTP BAAAAAAAAAH!!!

Morgana/Gwen FTW FTW.

Then I'm on board the Morgana/Merlin train, the Morgana/Uther train (IT IS SO WRONG BUT SO INTERESTING WHUT), and maybe the Morgana/Arthur train, but Arthur is not my favorite thing so that's to a much lesser extent.

[prettyquotable]

but Arthur is not my favorite thing so that's to a much lesser extent.

This is what I have realised too!!! After an initial "HE'S SO PRETTY" moment, I think I've worked out that he's my least favourite character? Idk. He just doesn't interest me.

\o/! I am so pleased more and more people are seeing the light and the truth of Gwen and Morgana's epic love. They hit me right in the shippy fangirl place, they really do. ♥

And heh, I keep toying with the idea of having a het ship in this fandom but I just can't manage it very well. Merlin and Gwen are socially awkward BFFs! Arthur and Morgana are hilarious bickering siblings! Arthur and Gwen will make a kickass king and queen, but not so much with the sparks there either.

Also, hahaha at the pictures, did you see this picspam? Amazing.

[prettyquotable]

Yeah, the het does not inspire. Unless it's Morgana/Uther, which I find to be rather glorious! Haha. And, obviously Gwen/Lancelot. So, I guess instead it's canon that does not inspire. :P

THAT PICSPAM IS GLOOOORIOUS. I love that there are so many different versions of these characters in other things. I'm always thinking of Spamalot when Arthur comes on screen, haha.

I think I can see why you might prefer Gwen/Lancelot to Gwen/Arthur, yes...

Depending on how it's written, it can be either wrong wrong wrong or hilarious or lovely. Very much depends on author and content.

You've seen shizuka_blooms' handwritten notes fic I assume? That was highly amusing.

[prettyquotable]

Yesss! That fic is amazing, I love it so. Haha.

[lalumena]

It's most amusing. sajee wrote some amusing RPF too, though it gets Colin/Bradley slashish towards the end of both. Just a heads up, in case your Arthur/Merlin apathy extends to cover that direction also? :)
