I Fucking Hate The Ugly Gecko

I have a feeling that episode 5 will turn out to be either okay or straight out bad.

So for mastermind, how come andrealphus kept painting imp as the villains and stolas as the hopeless victim

It has been made clear since his first appearance that andrealphus hates stolas and wants stolas job + money

Andrealphus should know painting stolas as the helpless victim would lead to stolas not getting punished

My guess is Viv + the writers wanted a romantic gesture to happen, where stolas would sacrifice his life for blitz, but they didn't know what to do to make that happen

Hey, so Angel and Valentino are not a hate-love relationship

Valentino is Angel abuser and also his r@pist

Valentino shows all these toxic behaviors towards Angel

And for the people want anymore proof

Hazbin Hotel episode 2 shows Valentino making a lot of belittling voice mails to Angel

Then episode 6 shows Valentino literally hitting Angel and reminding Angel he owned by Valentino

I also include these sceenshots to show the differences between a toxic relationship and a hate love relationship

What Angel and Valentino have is not a hate-love relationship, it a toxic relationship

Real picture of Viv trying not to make a POC religious figure into a skinny white blonde guy

Even though it might not look like it

I do like Hazbin and Helluva. The stories all have such wonderful concepts to work with. But the expectations are thrown out the door for whatever stuff they want to include, even though it doesn't make sense like at all.

merleon as the round table parents

it started on a hunting trip, gwaine was teasing mordred and took his stuff and hid it. merlin told him very sternly to give it back and mordred said "thanks dad"

from then on they all started calling merlin dad

with leon it came slower and from lancelot. lance was struggling with his relationship with gwen and he confided in leon

leon helped him work through it and when lance left he clapped leon on the shoulder and said "thanks pops"

of course the others all found out about it and started calling him pops

neither of them fits into "mom" or "dad" categories but they each have a role

the kids go to leon when they need solid advice, when they feel like they cant handle something alone and they need a real answer to a problem

they go to merlin when theyre hurt (physically or mentally) and he helps heal them. they also go to him when they need someone to vent to and not get a real answer from, merlin is more than happy to bitch with someone and he'll hold your grudges for you

when on hunting trips, leon makes sure they have food and merlin prepares it and makes sure everyone gets their share

theyre equally protective of the kids and they'll work together to move heaven and earth for them

when they dont want to deal with the knights they try and pawn them off on each other. they ask merlin for advice and he says "oof that sounds like one for pops"

gwaine gets mad at arthur and goes to leon, who tries to give him advice, gwaine gets even more upset and leon calls for merlin because he cant handle the big shows of emotion

the kids all fight to be the favorite. arthur tells the others he has to be the favorite because he's king, leon grounds him for holding his station above the others heads

merlin's favorite changes based on how much trouble they've cause him

leon's changes based on how well they did in training

raising the knights eventually gets merleon together.

Short: You're a Lord, Merlin!

Arthur: *Finds out Merlin's a Dragonlord.* *Big brain working* 🧠💭

Arthur: Hold on a second here... *Goes to Geoffrey to confirm* 💡🔎

Merlin: *Working* 🧹

Arthur: *Barges in and heads straight for his desk ignoring Merlin's inquiries*

Arthur: *Pulls out document papers and quill* *Stares at Merlin with intense eyes* 📜✒️👀

Merlin: Arthur?

Arthur: Sign here Merlin. *Points to the documents* ✒️📜

Merlin: What? Why? What is it?

Arthur: The grain reports for yule tide, obviously. *Rolls his eyes sarcastically, making Merlin huff* Don't question me just sign here.

Merlin: *Signs Papers after some time* What is this about Arthur?

Arthur: *Grins happily* You're a Lord. 🤗

Merlin: Yeah...? A Dragonlord. ❔

Arthur: *Shakes head* You are Merlin Ambrose, son of the late Lord Balinor Ambrose of Balor. Current Patriarch of the Ancient house of Ambrose.

Merlin: 😨 What?! ‼️

Arthur: Of course, it won't be Ambrose for much longer. Just need Geoffreys signature.

Merlin: Hold on Prat! What do you mean?! What did I just sign?!! 😠

Arthur: You're a Lord Merlin. 🙄 Honestly, keep up.

Merlin: You can't just give titles without my permission!

Arthur: Didn't need to. You already had one being Balinors only son.

Merlin: *Processing* 🧠

Merlin: ... Oh shit, my Dad was a noble? My Dad was a Lord!!?

Merlin: Then wait, what was it that I signed? 👀❔

Arthur: Our marriage certificate~! 📜💍👑❤️✨🥰

Merlin: Our WHAT!!??? 😳 *Blushes deep red*

Arthur: By tomorrow, you shall be known as Lord Merlin Pendragon 😏.

Merlin: Arthur! 😳😠

Arthur: Yes, my Lord~! ✨💕

so, its widely headcannoned that when arthur finds out about merlin's magic he's upset that merlin didnt trust him and lied to him

i think when leon finds out its the opposite.

first of all, leon is smart and observant so he suspected the whole time. and i think when merlin finally tells him (because he definitely sits him down and tells him the truth) leon just smiles

he smiles and he tells merlin how happy he is that merlin trusts him and he would never tell anyone else his secret and he loves him so much

leon would hold merlin when he decides he's ready to tell arthur and he's so scared about how he's going to react and leon promises that if arthur is anything less than supportive they'll run away together

because as much as leon loves camelot and respects arthur, merlin means the world to him

leon would be in awe every time merlin does even the smallest bit of magic. he'd get butterflies seeing merlin make their bed with just a flick of his hand

idk man leon is just too in love with him to even consider that merlin had any ill intent with not telling him sooner

I was literally talking about out this with a friend but can we please talk about how Merlin receives the consort treatment in the castle. Like Merlin has never been treated like just a manservant.

LIKE the scene with where Leon walks in on them look for a ghost and Merlin goes with “I’m teaching him poetry” bro no one believes that. THE DELETED SCENE where Arthur gives Merlin his mother’s sigil.

But specifically does Arthur realize how this is come into play diplomaticly?? Like kings and queens wouldn’t bother going through Gwen if she doesn’t seem like she has the kings favour. Like they would play nice becuase she’s the queen but it looks like she doesn’t have as much sway over Arthur. They would go through Merlin because he does. Does Arthur realize how he’s inadvertently oppressing the amount of power that Gwen is supposed to have. I know Merlin would not realize what’s going on, Arthur certainly wouldn’t. Does Leon know?? DOES GWEN???

Oh god it gets worse the more I think about it. Its gets worse when you think about how close Merlin would be perceived to be to the round table knights of Camelot.

Forever wishing there would have been a seasonal gimmick where someone from Merlin’s past comes to Camelot and spills some tea.

Like, just some rando comes by and drops the wildest lore that not even the audience knows to the knights super casually and leaves.

I.e.

Will (if he had lived): I’m glad Merlin found a place here. I thought for sure he’d end up banished again (: Arthur: He got banished from Ealdor? Will: What? No. Camelot wasn't Hunith’s first choice. Merlin just kept pissing people off in other kingdoms so she had to send him to Gaius because nobody else had a chance of controlling him. Arthur: Are you-? Actually, no. This tracks.

Or

Random Girl: Hi, I'm looking for my brother? He lives in the palace, I think. Elyan: And who might your brother be? Random Girl: Oh, sorry. I'm Ganieda! Merlin's sister. Gwaine: No fucking way

I'm just saying, there is no way Merlin stayed out of trouble his entire childhood. Consider:

Some Guy: Is Merlin here? Leon: You're not related to him, are you? Some Guy: No, I cannot say I am. Years ago we had a brief tryst while on an adventure together before parting ways. I heard he was in Camelot so I thought- Arthur: He's not here. Some Guy: Oh, but- Arthur: He actually died yesterday and, completely unrelated, I'm going to have to banish you. Goodbye. Don't return.
