Thanks for the fanfics and the great response! So she doesn't understand humans because she isn't human and that she sees no reason to try. Well that is like going to France and saying "I'm going to speak english anyway, I don't care if they understand me or not." She is not going to be able to get humans to do what she wants if she doesn't speak their language at least while she is among them. Humans don't have the capacity to understand her I think cause she is so much older than them. Merlin should be able to understand her better since part of her is in him. So they are both at fault, I've always totally agreed on that. I'm just saying the way she decided to do things is why she got the result that she did from Merlin etc. *bounces off to the fanfics*

I've read some fanfics over at fanfiction.net The ones I could find at least. The only story I found that was more than 1 chapter long was the one with Mab and Jareth and it was ok. Are there any fanfics anyone knows of? Would love to read just about anything of the Merlin universe

I agree she's not human so she sees things differently. But she is dealing with humans who are going to act like humans all the time so its not much of an excuse. I don't think she killed either his mother or Ambrosia. His mother was dying, loads of people die in childbirth in that time period, mab didn't need to do anything to help that along. Ambrosia was dying, mab might of helped that along with her voice, but Ambrosia was gonna be dead soon anyways. But Mab shouldn't say things like "No I didn't, I only let her die." That is not the way to make Merlin want to do things for you!
When Mab uses words like "let" it seems like she has power over life and dead. Yet when it comes to saving the dying: merlin's mother, ambrosia, mordred she doesn't do it. She doesn't kill frik and she makes morgan trip and leaves the rest to gravity. Does she really have the power to stop death or kill someone directly? It seems like Merlin and her were playing by some strange rules. Merlin could have just gone and killed Mordred when he was a baby and be done with it. Mab could have killed Arthur when he was just a baby. It doesn't seem like she's able to do things directly she has to influence humans to carry out her will. She may not be able to kill or stop death because those are things of nature that are supposed to happen. Merlin seems to be able to do some things more directly like killing vortigen, but most of the time he's setting up everyone else to do what he wants too.

Mab is my fav person from Merlin. But I don't hate Merlin, I did like him as a character, but it was irritating that he ended all magic! He's crazy, but I still like him anyways. I've always found frik irritating and Mordred was a little irritating because of his arrogance, but he doesn't bother me much. I think Mab just kicked frik out cause she didn't really need him anymore. She had her precious Mordred. She could care less if frik goes and jumps in a lake. Merlin refusing her hurt her though I know that. Merlin is as stubborn as Mab. I wouldn't mind if they had added more Mordred if it lets me see more Mab. But I like the love/hate relationship between Mab and Merlin, that's more fun. Most of the love/hate was coming from Mab though. Merlin was only doing hate. I wish they could've made it more complex, and emotionally complicated between those two. But it was right from the beginning: "Merlin hates her. The end."

Thanks! What do you think should be in a prequel? Since Merlin wouldn't be around. I'm from Imladris *whispers USA* Arwen is my most favorite character in fantasty stuff, but Mab is right after her. I'd love to go to Britain some day. I'm going to be going to Canada this summer for Prophecy 2007. It'll be the first time I've ever stepped out of the US. It wasn't a sequel I just see it as an alternate universe version of Merlin. There were a few scenes I was ok with, but most of it was crap. The only ones that could act were Miranda and Sam. Did you watch the extras on the DVD? It was basically Sam trying to apologize how bad the movie was without actually saying it out loud. Complete waste of money, time, and talent. I just ordered the 3 Merlin books today so I'll be able to read them soon.

The only reason I can think that they decided to call her lady of the lake instead of mab is because Merlin was going to have to have a child with her. Its a lot less incess to sleep with your aunt instead of your mother.
