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

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.

"I could find a place for you to hunt!"

"Now that actually isn't too ridiculous an idea, for your standards," Arthur praised.

Merlin shoved him as he rolled his eyes. "Or I could get you a kitten."

Arthur rolled his eyes. "Cats are useless for anything other than controlling pests, and we don't have a great many of them. Well," he said, shooting Merlin a look, "Barring one..."

One more pet and they were squarely in the territory of gay men who bought dogs to make up for their lack of children.

"You're not a pest," Merlin informed him brightly. "You're almost always welcome about."

"Very witty," Arthur shot back, "Except for where it isn't."

"I thought it worked rather well."

"You would." Beat. "But you'd be wrong."

Merlin nodded in a way that wasn't mocking at all. "Of course."
