I'm kinda scared, ha ha. This new turn of events doesn't bode well for Arthur and Merlin, and I find it hard to believe that Nimueh would allow Merlin to "play" her. I mean, if she's smart enough to escape jail and hide under the radar from the agency for months, there's no way she'd willingly recruit Merlin knowing he'd betray her for Arthur. Something's goin' on . . . .
What's her angle, anyway? Because we all know the best way to hurt Uther is to hurt Arthur--and if Uther is Nimueh's target, I'd expect her to use Merlin to bait Arthur, and then use them against each other to get to Uther. Merlin can pretend all he wants, but if Nimueh tried to do something ballzy, like ask Merlin to prove his loyalty by, I don't know, shooting Arthur, he wouldn't be able to do it. And I'm not sure Merlin would be able to kill Uther in exchange for Arthur's life. Merlin wants to save lives, not take them.
So why does Nimueh want to meet Arthur? I mean, the whole "I do hate to be stood up" line makes me think she's tagging along, and that would be all kinds of awkward. What's she planning? I'd like to believe Morgana and Merlin have a secret agenda, because they do make a great team and we never found out what she and Merlin talked about, but I don't know . . . . Neither of them would risk Arthur's life. Not intentionally, anyway. :( . . . right?
Regardless . . . I can't help but feel like something bad is going to happen. ;__; Argh. Where's Chapter Twelve, ha ha. <3 <3 <3
