A slightly angsty Merthur fic idea/ mini fic where a magic reveal goes slightly wrong, and Merlin and Arthur are captured by bandits. Things are still raw between both of them—think of their interactions in Diamond of the Day—but they’re stuck together anyway. They’ll have to depend on each other to escape (they will, but angst first).
The bandits know that Merlin has magic and give him cold iron shackles so he can’t use it. Worse, their leader is bragging how much coin they’ll get if they hand over their new sorcerer (Merlin) to Cenred.
Merlin’s fate seems to be uncertain: even if he escapes with Arthur, Arthur could still have him arrested for magic. Or he could end up being forced to fight for Cenred. (I think it’s headcanon that known sorcerers are forced to serve Cenred in Essetir and that’s partially why Merlin had gone to Camelot in the first place.)
So, as soon as they’re alone (in a cell or tied to trees away from the bandit camp), Merlin asks Arthur to kill him. (He would rather die than serve Cenred, and he knows execution probably awaits him in Camelot anyway.)
Arthur is obviously horrified that Merlin would ask him to do that. He asks why.
Merlin doesn’t bring up that he doesn’t really see a way out of this for himself. But he answers honestly: he doesn’t want his magic to be used as a weapon. (Merlin feels no loyalty to Uther, but he has no wish to harm Camelot or anyone else. *cue Nobody’s Soldier by Hozier*)
His answer is what brings Arthur to look at him fully again—stranger and friend, sorcerer and servant. (Basically Arthur goes from not recognizing the Merlin he thought he knew, to realizing he’s the same fool he’s always known.)
They escape later, and there’s much for Arthur to relearn about his friend, but they work together to bring magic back

My first thought was that I die inside the slow cooker. So I guess both?
If you die while making food in a slow cooker, whoever finds your body will have a nice warm meal waiting for them.

Lyrics:
Some nights, I stay up staring at my laptop
Some nights, I don’t sleep at all
Some nights, I ‘m glad that my dash is never ending
Some nights, I wish I could log off
But I still stay up, I still read your posts
Oh Lord, I’m still not sure why I’m awake at four
What do I scroll for? What do I scroll for?
Most nights, I don’t know anymore…
Oh whoa, oh whoa, oh whoa oh oh
Oh whoa, oh whoa, oh whoa oh oh
This is it, these are ship wars
What are we fighting for?
Why don’t we read fanfic already?
I was never one to sleep at night - save that for those who have a life
Post twice as much and get half as many likes, but here feels come again
To stay for a while
But that’s alright; I blog from in my bed tonight
I blog because I’m wonderin’ just who I, who I, who I am
Oh, who am I? mmm… I have no life
Well, some nights, I wish that my dash would end
‘Cause I could use some friends for a change
And some nights, I’m scared I’ll hit post limit again
Some nights, I always hit, I always hit…
But I still stay up, I still read your posts
Oh Lord, I’m still not sure why I’m awake at four
What do I scroll for? What do I scroll for?
Most nights, I don’t know…
So this is it? I sold my soul for this?
Left my social life for this? Or do I have no friends because of this?
(/awkward pause where I didn’t know what to write/)
So log on.
Log on.
Log on,
OH LOG ON!
Well, that is it guys, that is all, scroll twelve pages down and I’m bored again Ten years of this, and only bloggers understand I’m not sticking ‘round with my folks downstairs; Sorry to leave, mom, I had ship pairs I’m going to be forever alone, all dried up from my laptop brightness My heart is breaking for my OTP and the con that they call “love” ‘Cuz when they look into each other’s eyes… Man, you wouldn’t believe the most amazing things that can come from… Some terrible writers…ahhh…
Oh whoa, oh whoa, oh whoa, oh oh
Oh whoa, oh whoa, oh whoa, oh oh
The other night, you wouldn’t believe the fic I just read about my OTP
I wish it would update already
I wish you’d tag all of your stuff, man.
Why won’t you tag all of your stuff, man? oh…
I’m never logging off
Why would I ever log off Tumblr… oh …
Oh, oh whoa, oh whoa, oh.
I haven't read all your tumblr prompts (or stories) yet, but for now the one with danny deciding to tell his parents because of dani keeps haunting my mind.
I'd love to see some sibling relations and shenanigans between danny and dani and jazz.
I think reveal would be interesting with danny knowing its not just his secret. I think it would make him more confident but also protective and between his parents, Jazz and Dani it would be a fun dynamic.
The reveal aftermath could go both ways (if it gets that far). I'm a bit partial to bad reveal bc I'd love to see them on the run/hiding/roadtrip situation with humour and angst mixed so i dont know what hits me next :> But good reveal would be cool too, with dani trying to fit in into the family and society at large.
I took a writing hiatus after finishing my Invisobang fic but now I'm ready to get back to writing! So I am curious about what stories people are interested in seeing continued. An on-going series, a one-shot, one of my Tumblr prompts? I won't promise to fulfill any specific requests, but I have a lot of ideas and hearing people's favorites would really help me narrow it down.
Sam is characterized as a very strong environmentalist. And as a part of this, they have her follow a ridiculous made up dietary restriction: “ultra-recyclo-vegetarianism”
Which sounds like it’s meant to be all extreme, right? Something ridiculously strict.
Except that it just… isn’t??
For the most part it’s basically just the same as vegetarianism, and in the edge cases, it’s actually less restrictive than being vegetarian.
Because the rule is “don’t eat anything with a face” and for the most part, only animals are gonna have faces. I guess you could make the argument that like something like a venus fly trap has a face, but I don’t think any commonly eaten plants would count as having one unless you really stretch the definition. And unless animal products like milk are grouped in with the animal they’re from, they’re all gonna be permitted too because none of them have faces. So it’s unlikely to meaningfully ban anything that wasn’t already covered by vegetarianism.
But then on the animal side of things, it leaves some allowances that baseline vegetarianism doesn’t. Sure, most animals have faces, but not all, and some of the faceless ones are occasionally eaten (e.g. jellyfish). Heck, depending on how it defines what counts as a face, some decently common food animals like oysters could be permitted.
…though of course this assumes there aren’t other rules beyond that part (e.g. if there’s something about using “scrap” bits to justify including “recycle” in the name)
I will not confirm this.

I get different physical sensations - sometimes it's tightness in my chest and like a piercing pain, sometimes the veins in my hands and forearms fell as if they tightened or if the blood turned cold and also the bladder thing - like it flips and moves on its own
Is it fluttering in your stomach? Is it that raw excitement you feel in the back of your throat? For me, it’s actually a literal tingling in my legs and just plain raw excitement. You hear a lot of “oh I got whumperflies!” But, what are they to you physically? :)
