Camelot Citadel, Saturday Night into Sunday

[bitchprince]

Camelot stood peaceful as it sometimes did: no sorcerers had been burned in about a forthnight, there were no bandits getting particularly close to the city proper, and there were no real problems with the food or water.

Inside one room, the Lady Catrina and her servant busied themselves with something particularly noxious-smelling. And a trinket. But that was hardly of any import just yet. After all, that was their business.

In the morning, the knights would head out for training. In the afternoon, Uther would recieve citizens in need of mediation or favours in his audience chamber. The markets would bustle, and the farmers would work.

Yes. It was just another day in Camelot.

"I think we both are right now," Merlin replied with a surprising amount of diplomacy.

It was surprising.

Which would explain the surprised squinting on Arthur's part.

"You're the one spying in my chambers."

"It's above her chambers!" LOGIC, ARTHUR. LOGIC.

"Yes, I got that part," Arthur said, crabbily. "Will you stop talking in circles?"

He wasn't sure what to think any more. Merlin was behaving entirely too erratically for it to just be-- adolescent gawping.

"I told you, she's... horrid." And gross. "I need to ask Gaius a few things, but I don't think she's who she says she is."

"...Right."

Dubious Arthur was still dubious, and now increasingly convinced Merlin was just flailing about to try and make him feel better. Which was nice, but still.

... It was possible Arthur got a bit irrational once his father got involved.

"...Right now?"

"Unless you'd rather I stay the night..." Which, you know. He could do.

Arthur eyed him for a long moment.

He may have gripped his sword somewhat threateningly.

"You weren't," he checked, "Trying to get a look at her while she had her top off? And don't lie to me now, Merlin."

OHGODHISBRAIN. "No."

Re: Arthur's Chambers

Arthur pulled a suspicious face.

"Fine," he said, at last. "I'll believe you. Don't wake Gaius in the middle of the night, or he'll no doubt make certain there's hell to pay."

He tossed the sword near the side of the bed.
