Like many in and around Fandom, someone was waking in this hotel room. Someone with prematurely grey hair, in fact, who happened to be draped liberally in someone else with unfairly non-grey hair.

Someone who had been sleeping quite fitfully tonight on these fancy modern sheets, thank you very much, until someone else's phone had started ringing pointlessly at the crack of dawn.

Why?

A welcome message.

Not that Arthur cared at the moment. "Mrrln!"

It wasn't Merlin's fault. Uther had gone grey too! It was genetics or something of that sort...

"Whazzat?" Merlin asked, pushing the pillow over his head up to squint at the phone.

Merlin groaned, waving his hand at the phone to shut it off. And possibly short it out entirely.

He was tired. "Ugh, my mouth feels like I've been drinking that horrid punch from school."

After a moment of blissful silence, Merlin found himself unable to get back to sleep. "What time is it?"

"You," Merlin informed him, pausing to yawn. "Are a lazy king."

"Mmhmm." Merlin scooted closer, hooking an arm around Arthur's waist. "We can only hope the nanny hasn't run away screaming since we left."

Merlin rolled his eyes, pressing his nose to the edge of that grey just above Arthur's neck. "You're just lucky he's not worse. Picture him if he had magic."

"I will turn your cloak pink during the next feast," Merlin informed him. "While you're giving a speech."

"I'm an evil sorcerer," Merlin informed him, trying hard to keep a serious face. "I do evil pink things."

"They have this thing called room service," Merlin whispered against Arthur's neck, giving a quick kiss before he rolled away for the phone.

"Pink crown too," Merlin sang, dialing the number.

After ordering, Merlin plopped back down on the bed and gave what he thought was Arthur's shoulder a pat. It might have been his hip, though. "It could even sparkle."

"And you are too old to sulk in bed."

"I ordered you your disgusting eggs," Merlin said, resisting the urge to give him a belly rub.

"Drink? Talk to old friends..." Merlin frowned, not sure beyond that.

"You're not hunting them," Merlin warned him.

Because Merlin made sure he didn't! I mean, c'mon, Arthur.

"What are the rules about oddly colored animals?"

"Pink and green polka dots on your cloak."
