Summary:
yourlibrarian's summary:
Spoilers for Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Merlin, Killing Eve and Avengers.
Although the Enemies to Lovers story type is highly popular, I think there are ways in which it works more deeply or successfully. What counts as "success" though is the crux of the story, as well as whether the characters are truly enemies.

Summary:
anarchycox and thenerdyindividual's original summary:
There has always been much discussion within the fandom concerning Arthur and Magic. Some interpretations lean towards Arthur taking up an antagonistic role with his distrust of magic, other interpretations paint him as a protagonist easily led astray. This essay took data recorded over a ten month re-watch of Merlin and catalogued each interaction Arthur had with magic, and hopefully provided some nuance to the discussion.

For clarification purposes, I’m using ‘audio social media’ to refer to the up and coming social media apps like Clubhouse and Telepath where the audio being shared is not in a video format that has a visual and auditory element like YouTube, TikTok, and so on. I am not giving a review of a particular app or making any recommendations to try one particular app, but I have a few thoughts about the general idea and how certain questions relate to podfic, specifically what would affect podfic that might be posted on such a site and how that audio content compares to podfic.
