corilannamMy fandom is having a very good week indeed, at least if you're a slasher and like looking at well-built, half-naked men. Anyone? No?
It turns out that THE GAY TIMES agrees that Merlin is "RIDICULOUSLY HOMOEROTIC."
So they decided to go strip down Eoin Macken, Tom Hopper, and Rupert Young, photograph their glistening torsos, and interview them about how gay the show is. They even discuss slash fiction, and for once I didn't even mind because, well....
Have you not seen the slash fiction online?
Rupert: Oh I've heard of that yeah.
Tom: The what? The slash fiction? What's that?
It's when fans take two characters from a show and write fiction about them that's a bit more sexual...
Rupert: I've seen some of those. I've learnt some great moves from some [laughs]. It's weird there was one about me and my wife on our wedding night and the stuff I did. I was like: 'that's pretty good.'
Tom: You must have to search for that though, right? You google Rupert Young and like, I don't know, smut?
Rupert: I think so. I have to say I don't know what it was. Someone was forwarding it to me, genuinely.
Eoin: You've probably written some of it, haven't you?
Rupert: No, no, I don't know how to type.
They go on to talk vague spoilers about S4, how co-dependent all the knights are, and what hand they each had in "the coming of Arthur." And did I mention the photoshoot?
The only bad thing is that they didn't include Adetomiwa, whom I would very much like to see with his shirt off.
I am now feeling much more perky about S4. Whatever else happens, there will be hot knights. And now I finally know how to pronounce Eoin's name, so I can stop calling him "Gwaine" all the time!

IA with being a pity Adetomiwa was missing. The more knights, the more fun! Somebody should tell Gay Times that.
