[Merlin is sleeping when the feed starts. He's not in his usual Camelotian setting. But rather in a 20th century apartment. The sun's just come up and Merlin fusses when he feels the warmth of it. He groans and turns over, trying to hide his head away from it because that would mean work and Arthur and Uther and---wait a second. This does not feel

Merlin - how are you feeling?

[video]

[merlinastrice]

Hikaru?

[takeitoutofpark]

That's me. No more being a woman for me. [He sounds relieved that Merlin isn't... crazy? Anymore.]

[merlinastrice]

[That makes him shift uncomfortably] I take it that means you've spoken to me while I was...?

[takeitoutofpark]

Having a bad virus day? Yeah. Don't worry about it.

[merlinastrice]

I...it wasn't as bad as last time, was it? I mean, I can sort of remember it. It's all some sort of hazy dream.

[takeitoutofpark]

I don't really remember the last time. But it's okay, Merlin. You got a little carried away with yourself and took off, but I don't think you did too much damage. You couldn't have, if you're staying at someone else's place.

[Pause. Grrrin.]

Who's Ariadne, anyway?

[merlinastrice]

[Phew. Not too much damage. And....watch as Merlin oh so suavely tries to play it off]

...Um...Ariadne's...the person who owns this...place?

[Really, his ears are turning pink as is his neck]

[takeitoutofpark]

Yeah, and that place doesn't look a lot like Camelot. And that doesn't really look like your bed, either.

[merlinastrice]

[his eyes widen at that] It's not what you think!

[takeitoutofpark]

It isn't? [Heeheehee. Merlin has a girlfriend, Merlin has a girlfriend~!]

[merlinastrice]

Well not exactly!
