.021 - i'm sorry arthur has nothing public to say about that flood :c

[onceandfutureprat]

[Arthur is a restless sleeper. And half the time he ends up curled around a pillow just to have something to hold. While that habit will probably be a good thing in his marriage, it's not really that great when the person he's got an arm around is Morgana. Because they were kids yesterday and he let her sleep in his room because hers wasn't suitable and it wasn't as though either one of them would've accepted sleeping on the floor.

So he's holding her like she is his wife, and he's not awake enough to realize that it's all wrong.]

Lord Merlin, hm?

[Private to Scrad/Charlie]

I apologize. For my behavior towards you in the flood.

[Private to Arya]

Would you like another lesson in your swordplay?

Merlin did make up the story about the sword in the stone but Excalibur had been fashioned for him by a dragon. Though Arthur didn't know any of this. Because of secrets.

"Why me?" Arthur asked, more to the open air than expecting Charles to tell him all the reasons why he'd been chosen for this fate instead of his father who had won himself the kingdom or Merlin who clearly had the power to defend the kingdom against any evil. It couldn't just be because he was a Pendragon, so was Morgana and look how she turned out.

Charles just gave him a look that was definitely along the lines of "are we seriously having this conversation."

"Because you're the rightful heir to the throne and a good man. Brooding about the subject isn't going to do anyone any good."

Arthur could name a hundred good men. But Charles had a small point, brooding wasn't going to get anywhere. Normally the next step would be taking his thoughts out on the training field but he felt like it was sort of unfair to do that to Charles again.

"Perhaps you're right," Arthur said after a moment, though his long face didn't perk up very much. "I'm sorry I think I was too rough with you."
