Hee, thanks! Yah, I'm not a slasher and I'm not likely to cross over, but this show makes Arthur/Merlin so damn near canon that I couldn't help myself. I may not ship them, but when the show is so obvious about it, I need to point out the shippiness and romantic parallels as an impartial bystander, despite being a supporter of another ship, who is also noticing this subtext.
The funny thing is, if there was ever a ship that was likely to convert me to slash, Arthur/Merlin would be it. They're just so adorable together. I prefer them as friends, but I can see the possibility of something more, because TPTB are not even trying to be covert with it, hee.
I just don't understand people who bash other ships and act like they don't exist. I love my Arthur/Morgana but I can acknowledge that TPTB are clearly in love with Arthur/Merlin and spend more time devoted to them- although also keeping their options open by floating all ships simultaneously, lol.
