"You've got a gun in your hands, I know you've got plans..."

Turns out long-unfinished projects are a total blessing for vidding during an extremely stressful (not to mention longest ever!) exam session, and the only thing I seem to be able to work on at the moment. If you ever decide to stop being an incostant weirdo, inspiration mine, just give me a call...
Ah well, at least it means I get to post something I guess xD. Hello, 2017, nice to finally see you on here!
I'll call this a sort of study in parallels between belligerant ships I like, even though the whole thing as usual probably made way more sense in my head... The ships I went with are all obviously very different, have different story arcs and fit the description in different ways, with some being more similar to one another than others – but I had fun finding visual parallels between those that aren't that immediately similar as well!
Additional random considerations about this video:
- It officially seems I can only vid Merlin in crossovers/multifandom/collab parts and not on its own anymore. Will always "thank" s5 for smiting a good chunk of my love for this show, seriously...
- TWP is coming out in April! Despite really disliking that book, the trailer looks amazing and Elizabeth seems to be depicted quite differently from the source material, which was just the thing I was hoping for, therefore I'm unexpectedly looking forward to it. I obviously don't know enough about this portrayal of Elizabeth and Henry yet, but from the trailer they seemed to fit the bill of this video perfectly, so they ended up being thrown into the mix at the very last minute.
-I still maintain that I would be fairly content with any ship outcome from the new Star Wars trilogy, BUT! after noticing the awesome potential Reylo has to become a live-action version of Zutara if they go for a similar redemption route with Kylo in the next films, this ship has grown on me exponentially (maybe just in time to be debunked by The Last Jedi, wouldn't that be great xD). A longer parallel just between these four occupies a significant portion of the video; and it would be seriously amazing if the upcoming films allowed me to make a full video only of parallels between these characters...ah, the possibilities.
**spoilers from future!Vale: it ended up happening ♡♡ you can scream in Reylo freely now, Vale of the past!**.
-Mergana/Milathos get their little dedicated parallel moment as well because heck, the similarities always HURT. So. Much T.T (and about these four I've already made a separate video ^^)
-Speaking of Zutara, it really amuses me that so many people back in the day criticized it for being an “abusive” ship (which is sadly another thing it has in common with Reylo, since apparently antis of any fandom don't understand the meaning of character development, can't bother to address well-thought out headcanons and meta and just have to reduce everything to “fangirls only ship this because the guy is hot”), but when you see it among these other similarly-themed ones it is probably the healthiest relationship by far in its overall canon story arc. That same healthiness is what I ultimately wish for Rey and Ben too, even if they turn out to be related and in the end we have to settle for a beautiful friendship like we did with Zuko and Katara.
-Colouring multifandom videos = the bane of my existence T.T
...aaand now this description is already too long so I'll leave my ramblings there. I hope this concept hasn't turned into a total mess, but you'll be the judge of that I guess? Any opinions are, as always, really appreciated!
Ships featured: Vera/Phillip (And Then There Were None), Kylo Ren/Rey (Star Wars), Zuko/Katara (Avatar: The Last Airbender), Merlin/Morgana (Merlin BBC), Athos/Milady (The Musketeers), Henry/Elizabeth (The White Princess)
