For Blue Skies (I Forgive You) (Arthur/Gwen)

Song: For Blue Skies
Artist: Strays Don't Sleep
Fandom: Merlin
Pairing: Arthur/Gwen

While you can feel free to view this video as part of canon events, when I made it I was operating in an AU where Arthur breaks off the engagement following the discovery of the kiss, Gwen leaves of her own volition, and Arthur's too stubborn to follow after her. When he finds the ring he realizes the mistake he's made, but while he searches for her he seems unable to find her, and it isn't until they find themselves in Ealdor that, lo and behold, there's Gwen. (None of which is mentioned in the vid, but that's the world I'm working in.) This video was inspired by the following graphics: http://madeofgold.tumblr.com/post/14412712785/i-knew-you-when-you-were-young-... and http://maileuhnaye.tumblr.com/post/14402491099/for-blue-blue-skies-i-forgive-you

read your description but still gotta ask, have you forgiven arthur yet?

[SVEvenstar]

@kcl508 Not yet. Until he apologizes to Gwen, I won't be able to, and unfortunately it seems he never will. =\

[kcl508]

@SVEvenstar lol, ok (did the hug not touch you a teensy bit..?)

[SVEvenstar]

@kcl508 It did, but it doesn't address the huge issues that exist between them nor Arthur's treatment of her. =\ It was a sweet moment, but it means very little if the other things aren't addressed.

[kcl508]

@SVEvenstar You're a tough cookie!! (I mean that in the nicest way, I promise!!) Not saying that I don't want Arthur to apologise, I do. And also that the truth about 'that kiss' between G and L comes out, that should definitely happen! Looking forward to the finale. Do we know if there will be a series 5? x

[SVEvenstar]

@kcl508 LOL, I guess you can call me a tough cookie, but really I just think that, ignoring the context of the enchantment (b/c I don't think it'll ever come out), they both made mistakes (I happen to think Arthur made the worse one, but ymmv), and consequently they BOTH need to apologize. If it's only Arthur granting forgiveness, then a) it says he thinks he was completely in the right and b) it leaves a huge power imbalance between them. =(

S5 was commissioned before S4 even aired. =)

@nitecrawler26 Yeah, I was as well. It seems we won't get anything more, at least of substance, although a small part of me is still unwisely hoping that we will. *sighs*

Thanks so much for the kind comment. <3

@naimasophie Aw, thank you!
