Sixth Floor, Thursday Evening -- Merlin's Birthday Party

[bitchprince]

If Arthur had still been back at Camelot, the idea of holding celebrations for a servant's birthday would have seemed preposterous. But he wasn't, and it didn't, and if he were really honest with himself he'd admit he enjoyed it (or at least in as much as it involved picking out presents that made him fret some on the inside and yelling at people about getting decorations in).

The Sixth Floor was decorated rather decadently for a birthday party. There were some CDs of painfully carefully selected songs playing through the system - the ones Arthur had judged least likely to shatter eardrums (and maybe tending towards the classical and medieval).

And there was food. Courtesy of Francine.

Arthur didn't like half-measures much.

"No raw fish?" he asked, raising an eyebrow. "I think I might try. Happy birthday, buddy! Having a good one so far?"

"I think it is so far," Merlin replied. "Nothing horrible has happened for starters."

"Are you expecting something horrible to happen?" Hannibal wondered.

"...a bit. All things considered about this island."

"Such a pessimist, Merlin," Hannibal said, clapping him on the shoulder. "I think the island could let you have your birthday."

"It's happened one too many times," Merlin replied. "I"m rather certain it's out to get us all."

"Stop thinking that on your birthday," Hannibal chided. "Come on, Merlin, perk up."

Merlin snorted. "I will try. There is plenty food and people here to prove distracting."
