can i just mention how arthur kept turning to look at merlin directly in the eye,
studying the face of the man who has sacrificed everything to keep him safe without the
slightest desire for recognition, the man who took on how many years of ridicule,
crap jobs and endless taunts just to serve him
and then arthur looked him directly in the eye to say “thank you”

THAT WAS THE MOST BEAUTIFULLY HEARTBREAKING PIECE OF TV I HAVE EVER SEEN AND I CAN’T STOP CRYING
I WANT TO BE DISAPPOINTED BUT IT WAS JUST SO WELL DONE AND THE ACTING WAS ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL

jesus though like throughout the whole episode, every single time merlin used magic in front of arthur openly,
you could visibly see arthur not only putting everything together - years and years of coincidental things
that didn’t quite add up and things he could never fully account for - but also realizing just how fucking powerful merlin is.
that yes, he’s a king, but he’s had the most powerful sorcerer that has ever lived cleaning his boots and washing his sweaty, dirty clothes.
and you could actually see how humbled arthur was by the very end of it.
that this powerful sorcerer is also his stupid manservant and merlin could have done anything he wanted at any time,
but he chose to stay by arthur and protect him for so many years and arthur is so incredibly thankful for that.

Well it’s not Christmas if BBC didn’t hit you with a bus of feels.

Очень ощутимо. Достойный конец для Мерлина.
