3rd Floor Common Room, Sunday Morning

[bitchprince]

It had been a while since he'd last visited the common room. To be fair, most of the time, the place seemed overloaded with the noise of the television. But room (annoying desert noble and all), salle (annoying, lying blondes and all) and town (ice cream?) had lost their interest for the moment.

Which was why Arthur found himself seated there at a respectable time in the morning, snacking off a plate of cheese that Merlin had brought him earlier. As always, he had things on his mind, but they had settled far enough that he showed no outwardly signs of brooding.

"That is what I just said."

Arthur was a great deal better at keeping his face straight. Especially considering that it was a possible danger around here.

"Next thing you know, we may have swords that talk back as well."

[bitchprince]

"Now that's just ridiculous, Merlin."

"Is it really?" Merlin replied, giving him a look.

[bitchprince]

"Yes," he said, easily, "Much like the matter of my cup still being empty."

[bigdamndestiny.livejournal.com]

"You managed to fill it the first time," Merlin pointed out, standing up to take it anyway.

[bitchprince]

"And then you arrived so I wouldn't have to," Arthur said, cheerfully. "Well played."

Going with the cup to the fridge, Merlin picked one of the many things of juice for him. "I have a sixth sense for serving you, my lord," He said dryly.

[bitchprince]

"Do you? Perhaps you should exercise it more often."

Yeah, now he was just mocking Merlin for the fun of it.

"And ruin your fun? I would never."

[bitchprince]

Arthur took a moment to think. "I've got it," he said at last, lazily, "Maybe it'll improve relations with the locals if you wear the official servant's garb of Camelot around the premises."

"Here I thought you no longer wanted me to make a fool of myself," Merlind said, offering him the cup.

[bitchprince]

"You're going to make a fool of yourself no matter what." Arthur's hand curled around the cup, and he pulled it towards him. "Might as well make it useful."

"I suppose this means you'll be wearing your crown then."

[bitchprince]

"Nonsense," he said, dismissively, "The crown's only for special occasions."

[bigdamndestiny.livejournal.com]

"As is the hat."

[bitchprince]

"A different kind of special occasion, Merlin."

Being 'amusing Arthur'.

Merlin just gave him a look that implied he was so terribly lucky that Merlin didn't do something awful to him in his sleep.

"Of course, Arthur."

[bitchprince]

Arthur had full confidence that whatever catfight Merlin's entrance into the room would start with Leto would wake him up before Merlin could even try anything.

"I'm taking it under consideration."
