The Lovers

Kaja Horvat, 2024

Cover for Ray Bradbury's : 'The Autumn People' by Frank Frazetta, 1975.

i recently became possessed with the idea of a merlin series rewrite that would follow more closely the legends in some aspects. i'm not exactly sure how one would pull it off but i already ordered a copy of le morte d'arthur to refresh my memory

something something uther dies from an illness while arthur is still a child and how that's gonna affect things?

but, i still want merlin and arthur to be the same age

so balinor is gonna take on the role in events that occurred pre arthur's birth where merlin's figure was involved?

i really love-hate the story about ygraine in the legend. adds so much trashinnes to uthers character. so fitting.

uther literally got hots for a married woman, got pissy offended when she left in the night because of his creepy behaviour and waged war against her husband because of that.

and than he impersonated her husband and slept with her. which is really SA. and then when her husband died, in that same war, he was like "well guess you'll now have to marry me". what a disgusting creature.

i can go on and on

Finished this art for @liviapeleia as part of the @merlin-gotcha4gaza event!

I absolutely adore your story https://archiveofourown.org/works/57536806 and I hope you like the my little drawing inspired by Merlin answering the door and seeing Uther :)

Day 1

Dear Hunith,

your son has safely reached Camelot, which I think is most unfortunate. I am plagued with questions over your reasoning for sending him here. He's betrayed his secret with me five seconds through the door of my apartments; had there been a patient there, I would be writing you for arrangements for his remains. He also seems, from bits of our conversation, unaware of his father's identity but that seems too odd to be true to me, considering you of all people should know very well what sleeps underneath the castle.

I shall try to keep his as safe as possible, but please, call him back home. My heart could hardly take much more of this,

Gaius

Day 2

Dear Hunith,

Your menace of a son is in jail.

life is so ruthless so i must love you as hard as i can. basically

boy do i love te

Seconded! Had this on tape, it was my second Arthurian piece of media after Disney's Sword in the Stone, it was wonky, but emotional. Our villain Mab has the funniest little raspy voice lol. It's only an hour total and well worth a watch!

This is a bit off topic for my typical stuff

And it's not actually about the show that the majority of you talk about

But I'm just hoping since you're a fan of the character Merlin that there are those out there who have seen Sam Neill's version

Yes Sam Neill, the guy from Jurassic park

There was a Merlin mini series that came out when I was a teenager so this thing is like 20 years old

And you all deserve to get to enjoy it

I honestly have no idea where you could stream it from if you can't find it on an illegal site

But honestly, it's a beautiful thing to enjoy from it's time period

And I hope you get to

ETA: apparently it's on YouTube I've linked it below
