Merlin & SPN Reaction +Weekend Ongoings

[happyevraftr]

Well I had a pretty good weekend! How about all of you?

Friday night I was exhausted after having to function all day on only four hours of sleep. We played The Settlers of Catan and I was a bit snarky considering I'm already a competitive person and I had no filter whatsoever with the exhaustion.

Saturday I literally did nothing but work on my hols fic. wolfangeldeath were in chat all day and she was the best. encouraged me and then kicked me in the butt when I needed it :) Thank you to everyone for your support! I finished editing it this morning and now it's off to my other beta.

After finishing my fic last night we went to a friends house and had a couple drinks. I didn't think I had that much, but I'm apparently I lightweight these days, and ended up pretty drunk. It was fun though, some girlfriend of mine were there that I hadn't seen in a while and we had some really nice girl time. Sadly I did manage to pull a muscle in the middle of my shoulder blades and it hurts. Only other downfall was that I got really mad at my husband over something completely stupid. I was honestly a complete and utter bitch and I feel terrible about it today. I have no idea what was up my butt, but I said some of the most hateful things ever- for no reason! I've apologized, and he's not even upset cus he knew I was being drunk and ridiculous....but I'm still upset with myself. Words can really hurt people and I try so hard to watch what I say. My mother raised me to be sensitive to other people's feelings. Plus I really have very little respect for wives that belittle their husbands. I want to be treated like a lady and in turn I try to treat my husband with respect and like he's a man. I feel like I undid four years of respect in one drunken escapade. *sigh* He's so laid back but I don't feel like sorry was enough. I'm just so confused as to what set me off like that. I think I need to pull out the old journal and spend time doing some self reflection.

ANYWAYS...No Once Upon a Time tonight :( But I did watch Merlin and Supernatural this weekend. Thoughts:


Supernatural:
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! WHHHAAAATTTT?!?!?!?!?!?! They're not going to kill Bobby right? It's impossible right? I don't know what I'd do if they actually kill him.

Dean being all mopey was kind of nice to see. I don't know how they deal with all the shit they go through, so it was nice to see some emotional fall out. Then him being high on the sandwich was freaking hilarious!! LOVED THE SNARKY!!

Merlin
OMG COULD BRADLEY GET ANY MORE BEAUTIFUL? No seriously--I don't know if it was the lighting this episode or what, but he just looked ethereal! *fans self*

I'm not really sure how I feel about this episode in general. I feel like there should have been a lot more Merlin bamfness. He really came off as a wimp to me. Did anyone else find it odd that he collapsed that wall WITH GWAINE AND PERCIVAL STILL INSIDE?!?! Really, WTF?!? The only saving grace of this episode was that Gwen didn't find out about Merlin's magic. If it would have been a season one or two reveal then I would have said YAY! But now I'll be disseminated if anyone else but one of the knights finds out before Arthur. And even then I can only imagine the ridiculous amount of squeeing for Gwaine/Merlin shippers. *shifty eyes at Gwaine* "stay away from my otp you manwhore!"

Two other things I loved about this epi: Merthur moment at the end. *squee* could they get any more adorbs? And getting to see more of Percival. Um....*whew* that man is insanely hot when riled up.

I've really loved this season so far, but I'm not so sure I liked this episode much. Even though the knights were enchanted, I still hate seeing people be mean to Merlin. I feel like he has to go through and put up with so much shit that I hate seeing even more piled on him.

I agree, though. Merlin is supposed to be the most powerful sorcery in the history of ever, so I don't know what was up with him this episode. Sometimes I think his "must keep the secret at all costs" attitude paralyzes him.

ACK! Why can't Arthur just know.

It does paralyze him and I really don't get it. I understand keeping the magic secret is important, but what does it matter IF YOU DIE?!?!?! For realz....

I can't decide if I liked this episode or not. On one hand I can't stand it when anyone is mean to Merlin, but on the other he didn't really look like it had an affect on him. He knew they were enchanted and took it in stride. And Arthur was totally channeling his inner Prince Humperdinck with the tracking! LOVED IT! Then there was all this... Arwen in the way. *cringes* Still can't stand it.

"Then there was all this... Arwen in the way. *cringes* Still can't stand it."

I KNOW RIGHT!! SERIOUSLY!! They make me want to throw up! And maybe I had my Merthur goggles on, but I still felt like he was more relieved to see Merlin ok, even if he went to Gwen first. lol

I'm kind of debating just not watching next weeks episode EVER. Lance/Gwen are supposed to be end game according to EVERY LEGEND EVER. And I don't know how I'll deal when it turns out Lance is not really Lance and then everything is all happy again with Arwen *barf* And I'm now even mad over it because I'm a Merthur shipper- Lance/Gwen has been my OTP before this show even came out!! I LOVE them together!!! *waahhhh* ok, that's all.

YES! IN EVERY legend their using Gwen/Lance was endgame! They're ignoring the real originals anyway! Why would you pick out ONE THING! Sure when they started Gwen never cheated on Arthur but dammit! You're using the Franco version anyway! BOO! I want Gwen and Lance to become that happy little couple from the beginning and A/M can be happy in Camelot!
