The Salle, Monday... Afternoon

Arthur hadn't been able to make it down to the salle at his usual time on accounts of the fact they had only arrived that morning. Still, Dinah had been on the same trip, so the message had been handwavily communicated during the way back.

Not that Arthur hadn't managed to get a lot of training in during the trip, but the sword in his hands was more familiar, a better friend than the quarterstaff.

He was not particularly violent or passionate today, simply sliding through his motions with a clear purpose. Felt good, as always, to give his muscles a workout.

"It's nice," Merlin granted him. "But it's not home."

"It isn't," Arthur agreed.

Neither was this.

He gave Merlin a tired little smile.

"Looking forward to the dance?" Merlin asked, bumping him with his shoulder.

"It's just another dance," Arthur pointed out, shaking it off. A little bit, anyway. "People will start idle conversation, some people will dance, the music will be awful, and before night's end someone will have spiked the punch."

"Does that mean you don't want to go?"

Arthur snorted. "Don't be ridiculous," he said, "Of course I'll go. I do have to make an appearance."

"Well, alright then." Merlin, don't smile so much.

"What are you smiling about?" Arthur asked, slanting a look at him. While rubbing circles on Merlin's arm with his thumb, but hush.

Arthur squinted. "I don't believe that for a second," he said, lightly, "But I'll let it go."

"Shall I meet you there?" Merlin asked, exhaling and relaxing a bit more.

[personal profile] bitchprince 2010-04-06 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
"Sure."

He brushed his thumb along the fabric over Merlin's elbow.
bitchprince: (...que?)

"What, what?"

[identity profile] bigdamndestiny.livejournal.com 2010-04-06 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
"You had an odd look," Merlin replied, waving his hand toward Arthur's face.

"You have an odd look," Arthur retorted, maturely. "Always have."
