Merlin 204: Lancelot and Guinevere
At long last, I’m watching a Merlin episode again! Thank goodness for the liveblogs – I had to quickly reread the last one to remember what happened.
Arthur and Gwen are giving each other significant looks! Arthur is pouting sadly! Yeah, Morgana’s sad about her dad, but let’s focus on the teenage sexual tension! It’s what we’re all here for, right?
MORGANA: You’re so secretive these days! I’m beginning to think there’s a man involved. Is there, Gwen? Is there?! Because you said I was the only one for you!
Sorry, I know they’re being kidnapped, but all I can think about is how horrible that scarlet velvet cloak and blue dress are in combination. Bad Morgana!
...I wish she was keeping them on now though. I’m sure they have a plan, but... eurgh rape threats. Not even very subtexty ones. :S
W00T MORGANA AND GWEN FTW.
Oh dear, poor both of them...
Interesting little moment of class-based morality, which crops up all too rarely: “I will not impersonate my mistress.”
I like that Morgana keeps going with Uther, despite the tension. She’s not my favourite of the quartet but I do like her. Especially, you know, what with all that “she’s more than my maid” stuff. :D BOO ARTHUR. I’m sure he’s got a plan, though.
LOL GWEN IS EXCELLENT AT BEING MORGANA.
ARTHUR: Distract the guards, Merlin!
MERLIN: How?
*bursts out laughing* Well, the traditional method involves batting of eyelashes, Merlin...
Medieval cage-fighting. Huh. Kinda wish Lancelot was the one shirtless and in a collar, but you can’t have everything.
*sighs* Okay, I definitely bought the meaningful eye-contact, but the romantic-music-talking-through-the-cell-window thing is just kind of annoying.
:S And now he’s being angsty, and she’s all soft-eyed. I wish I found this cute, I do.
See now that was more like it. Go Arthur! And go Merlin, you adorable little Best Mate Ever, you. You did look rather sad when Arthur said he cared about Gwen more than anyone, poor love.
I will admit to a certain amount of mean amusement that Mr Martyr failed so entirely. :) COME ON OUR BOYS!
See, the holding-hands thing is cute, but Lancelot’s dialogue just irritates me SO MUCH. I can’t bear platitudes and he speaks in nothing else. ‘I will die with faith in my heart, and that is worth more than anything.’ >.<
YAY RESCUE!
LOL at Lancelot. “The two of you?” He’s so bemused.
:( Poor Arthur.
Ahaha. “I’ll just... sit here, then.” Poor Merlin, lost amidst an angsting love triangle.
Oh my God, Lancelot, YOU ARE SO ANNOYING. No, I can find no sympathy for you deep, deep down. Only the wish that you’d stop talking.
:) Gwen’s truest love is for Morgana. Blates.

I like the Arthur/Morgana banter, I think I'd like something happening between them. :) Aww, poor Reiko. There's always the internet!
OH NOOOO. Sorry, it's the Arthurian legend thing again: my brain keeps saying SHE'S HIS MOTHER AND HE'S THE PRODUCT OF HER HAVING SEX WITH HER BROTHER OH GOD NO.
I could see Morgana/Uther happening - in a twisted way, but yeah. Uther/Gaius not so much. Mostly because Gaius is MY FAVOURITE FOREVER AND EVER and Uther is a dick. I like to think Gaius and Geoffrey of Monmouth are quietly having a polite affair behind closed doors :)

It's the eyebrows, isn't it? It must be. His are eyebrows of doom! love Gaius so very, very much. I was so sad when I thought he died in the first season. Like, noo! Gaius! Just let Hunith die! (I like her and all, but I just like Gaius way more).

I totally cried when the voice-over was happening, of the letter he sent in the first season. Like OMG NOOO GAIUS CAN'T DIE!
