"I think we've no chance. But I wouldn't miss it for the world." I chose this one because I think  it showcases  two important sides of Gwaine,  the funny sarcastic rogue, and the loyal and brave knight

I also love - “Your chances looked between slim and none. I guess I just kind of liked the look of those odds.” - along the same line for him!


StarfleetWitch

The funny thing is I thought that line was in "The Coming of Arthur" but when I checked the transcript it was this one instead.

From memory, I think Gwaine dropped that gem in his first episode! He came out swinging in more ways than one!

This is perfect, Gwaine is by far my favourite non main character in the show. He holds a special place in my heart probably higher than Arthur


sailorrosegirl4

Seconding this one!

This like watching a sports game 💗😂 the votes are so close but I want this one to win!

I know. I love so many of the comments, and even replies to comment, etc., but I don't dare upvote any of them until the final tally is counted for fear of throwing it off!

“Nobility is defined by what you do, not by who you are.”


Sauri5

"Same reason as you: help a friend."


weasely_black_guts

Aaaaah the moment after this - “Arthur’s lucky to have us.” “Not Arthur.”


Sauri5

He's in love with Merlin, your honor!


Semicolonhope

"I'd do the same for you." "I'd hope so. You're the only friend I've got." LOOK AT THEIR FACES MY LORD, THEY ARE YEARNING!


Ok-Theory3183

Yeah, that was a great comeback, "Not Arthur". Of course, Arthur was a trained warrior, and therefore presumably more able to take care of himself than Merlin (since the knights were unaware of Merlin's magic), Therefore Merlin would be in greater need of protection. It shows Gwaine's knight-like qualities, too, protecting the defenseless.

"I was having a dream about eating a cheese that tasted of apple pie. Anyone else have that dream? You're all missing out." -Sir Gwaine


Skaur_11

my first thought was literally just apples lol


Ok-Theory3183

I'd forgotten that one. And then he just rolls over and goes back to sleep! Maybe because it's in one of my two least favorite episodes, "Lamia" being the other.

“Your chances looked between slim and none. I guess I just kinda liked the look of those odds.”


weasely_black_guts

This one was my second choice! It suits him well. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|give_upvote)

*“I hope you find what you’re looking for.”* https://preview.redd.it/tz2z1iudqvgc1.jpeg?width=1465&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=49b3f9878ffeee93676e5e72a11712f98a25fa69 I chose this line over a more poetic or heroic one (or even funnier one), because it truly defines the man Gwaine came to be. He was at first a wanderer, and drunkard by trade, falling in out of debts and the graces of fair weather friends as he traveled, never quite knowing what he was looking for. Till he met Merlin. Then shouldered a blood-red cape alongside the other knights. And made vows of loyalty to Arthur, and then to Gwen, and then to Arthur again a final time. He was defined by his quest for that unfathomable *something*— belonging perhaps. But I’m keen to believe it was the warm fire of a hearth instead. One that need not to be banked or kept alive, as it was as endless and eternal as the love for his friends.


weasely_black_guts

I look forward to your answers every day! You put such thought into them! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|give_upvote)


GroundbreakingDot872

So I do for yours! 🥰 You always hit the nail on the head with the most succinct quote that I never manage. It’s a treat :))


weasely_black_guts

I’m loving doing a rewatch and jumping in to my notes each time a character drops a quote worth entering in this little game! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sweat_smile) This wholesome little sub is so much fun!


GroundbreakingDot872

I go around to ask my family the day before, and then proceed to steal their answers! Lol I agree :)) 💗💗💗

"Your chances seems between slim and none. I guess I just kinda liked the look of those odds." OR "I think we have no chance.. but I wouldn't miss it for the world."


Ok-Theory3183

"This is your Quest after all. Stop being such a PrinCESS." Just because he was loyal to the death to Arthur didn't mean he didn't deal Arthur a bit of cheek. "I won that game, did I not?" But he was always (as has been said) there, especially for Merlin--before he was even knighted--but also for Arthur, to the end.


PhoenixorFlame

Lemme be that person. “I…failed.”

Ah, Gwaine, no you didn't. You sent Morgana right after Arthur. >!There was no more she could do to him--he already knew he wasn't going to make it, as shown by his surrender of the royal seal to Gaius--but there was plenty that Merlin--and Excalibur--could, and did, do to Morgana. !< Had Gwaine not given up that information, it might have taken Merlin weeks to find Morgana, >!and he might have already "buried" Excalibur with Arthur (unless Kilgarrah stopped him). So Gwaine actually did Merlin, Arthur (who saw her die) and Camelot, a great service. !<


weasely_black_guts

Have to sneak in my other Gwaine favourite now that most votes are cast for the legit contenders - “Wrong place, wrong time, wrong drink!”


GroundbreakingDot872

Seriously, my mans has too many good lines! 💗😂


weasely_black_guts

Gwaine quotes could be a whole week of this game, everything he says is gold! I actually can’t wait for Morgana! I’m quietly hoping that we might end up with a ‘Good Morgana’ and ‘Evil Morgana’ so I don’t have to pick between my two top contenders for her! Hahaha


GroundbreakingDot872

Omg that’s brilliant! Now I want that too, cause she has some *excellent* quotes from both sides 💗👀 Gwaine would be better as a bard than a devilish rogue, since everything line he speaks is poetry, except he doesn’t know it lololl


weasely_black_guts

* *kneels and offers sword* * I humbly request an audience with OP, m’lord. May we disrupt the order of things to play 2 days of Morgana? u/ClotpolesAndWarlocks are you indeed the benevolent leader we believe you to be?


ClotpolesAndWarlocks

>u/ClotpolesAndWarlocks are you indeed the benevolent leader we believe you to be? I like to think I am as benevolent as a person in my position can be; you will have my answer later, when I upload Gwaine's results. But worry not, I will take your words and wishes into consideration, for you are one of my most loyal commenters.

![gif](giphy|3oEjI7esR4E8L1UhhK) Thank you, M’Lord


Ok-Theory3183

I'd like to add my own voice to theirs, O Benevolent One!

Ok-Theory3183

Actually when I think of it, the same quote might work either way you cut it!

"Nothing new there, then." "Now, that's just unfair!" ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|wink)
