LOVELY MERLIN TIME YAY.

• Arthur all naked in bed, yay! It is like this is a new theme of the series. I approve.
  
  
• Mealtime!lols. Ah, shiny Merlin and Arthur interactions, you are ever so shiny.
  
  
• Oh, and there is a lovely bit too with Arthur protecting Merlin and saying he completely trusts him and the bounter hunter dude should sod off and I am well easy for mush when I already love the dudes yay.
  
  
• "Are those my sausages? You took them!" "To keep you in shape." Are you saying I'm fat? I am not fat!" "You see, it's working." ILU!MERLIN&ARTHUR. LOVE LIKE MISSING SAUSAGES.
  
  
• OMG IS DRUID LADY MERLIN FANCIES A WEREWOLF? I am so hoping for werewolf. Ee! Wild animal says Gaius. BE A WEREWOLF OMG PLEASE KTHXBI.
  
  
• Where are Gwen and Morgana show? I do not approve of their absence. Hrrrrm.
  
  
• Hurrah! There you are Gwen...catching Merlin trying Morgana's clothes out, heh.
  
  
• "If we don't stop them, we'll all be walking around naked!" OH MERLIN.
  
  
• Booooo. Werewolves don't have wings, dammit. Nor do they look like big cats. Hmph.
  
  
• Not the worst CGI monstering ever, but pretty unimpressive, alas.
  
  
• Panther-bat is like the Hulk and only Betty Merlin can calm her homicidal ways.
  
  
• OH ARTHUR IS DOING SENSITIVE TALKING TYPE THING WITH MERLIN. I do love their bromance like lots even if I do not slash them proper.
  
  
• Show, you are v lucky to be so good at the Merlin & Arthur lols. Because that was tots a meh episode. Alas Freya was not terribly interesting (but even so she was not so bad she deserved to be fridged) and there was a distinct lack of Teamness and Morgana. Again. Less of that.
  
  
• Next week: "My job...is to woo." OH ARTHUR.

I can see the appeal of "helpless girl needing rescue" to Merlin in particular, given that he so seldom gets to (openly) play hero to anyone. But yeah, it would have been nice to get a little more character development. And I want more of the awesome girls we have already, pls. I hope there is lots and lots of Gwen and Morgana in the last two eps because we seem to be running out of time!
