My opinion

Queer-baiting happens, but it should not, and it should not be used as an excuse to dismiss other people’s ideas oder interpretations of a story.

Arthur and Morgana Pendragon meet Gwen and Merlin at a club in the 20s *see link for full summary*.

Merlin 5x13 AU: Arthur and Gwen actually get to say goodbye to each other, like they deserved. (*I cried a lot making this but I finally finished it*)
