Last Rites
Rating: PG
Genre: Drama
It didn’t matter how many times Gwen reassured him, once the plane was not flying smoothly, Arthur began confessing as if to a priest with his last rites. A good many things came out- he nicked ten pounds from his dad’s wallet, lied to Gwen, and he had killed during his term in the Army and he did not know the exact number.
It was towards the end when it became ridiculous. The truly embarrassing and laughable deeds came to light and then the airplane stabilized and the pilot said it was alright now and they will be landing soon.
Gwen, ever so understanding, kissed him and confessed a few things, as if to make it okay.
Unfortunately, Arthur forgot that Merlin and Gwaine were seated behind them and heard it all. And that Merlin had his videophone on. The plane could not land fast enough for them.

Turned out to be interesting day today. After his “honorable discharge” from the service, a woman in a ripped dress and a large sword (well, large in her dainty hands) slammed into him. And they had to run because some skinny bloke told them to.
Now they were all at his apartment and he wasn't befuddled and angry as before. He then noticed that woman is...absolutely beautiful. How could he miss it? He could get poetic about her beauty.
And her dress wasn't just ripped, it was in tatters and looked as if a medieval drama costume.
"Are you two actors?" He asked.
"Definitely not," said the bloke, "I'm Merlin and this is Gwen."
"So you're escapees from an asylum then?"
Gwen said curtly, "No. We escaped from an evil witch. This is your sword by the way."
And she tossed him the blade with ease.
"Hello Arthur." Merlin smiled.

It was as if the god of film decided that today the director will be given this blessing. This gift of a woman.
She was perfect for this role. With her big doe eyes, and lovely curls and intelligent speech, yes Guinevere is Arthur Pendragon's Helen, the star of White Spirit. The beautiful damsel with a heartbreaking past and a heart of gold plated steel.
Now he has to convince her to take the role.
Deciding to be upfront, Arthur walk up to the girl and said, "Miss, how would you like to star in my movie?"
Merlin smirked; the twerp probably brought her over to win the argument that he could find talent. Arthur will have to give him a raise, but only if she accepts.
Guinevere was surprised, for a moment and then said with a grin, "What is the role and how much?"
Thank you movie god!
I Can Fly!
"I can track down a hawk on a cloudy day, how is it that I cannot find my own son?!"
"Maybe you're lacking the right motivation. I mean, you're not going to shoot down Amhar?"
Arthur opted for a moment to murder Merlin, and then said, "You're the all powerful wizard! Chant something!"
It was then they heard a giggle.
The two men ran into the seamstress room and tossed over furniture and fabric rolls until Arthur noticed his son’s face.
"Amhar!" Arthur saw his tiny son up on a self ten feet above him.
Amhar jubilantly waved to his father "Hi Daddy!"
"How’d he get up there?" Merlin questioned.
"Get him down!"
"Alright. Amhar, want to fly?"
"Yes!"
"Stand still." Merlin whispered and his eyes flashed gold and the prince was lifted by gold dust and he cried in exhilaration of flying.
He landed safely in his father's arms.

It was on sale, that Gwen took pride in. It was of a lovely smooth silk with tasteful and delicate lace embroidered on the bodice and the skirt flared out. It was appealing and it looked beautiful on her.
Not anymore.
The dress’ virgin white coloring was now unclean gray, pathetic strands were all that was left from the lace and it was ripped everywhere.
Gwen held the ruined tattered gown in her hands, eyeing it.
“What I want to know is that after the first rip and the second stain, why didn’t you just put it back?”
Arthur manned up and explained, “Merlin thought we could fix it, so it was his fault.”
Make-up
Rating: G
Genre:Drama/Romance
Arthur Pendragon was in trouble and it was mostly his leading lady’s fault. He hired her because as soon as he saw Guinevere Leopold, he knew she could play this part. At her audition, once she spoke the first line, it was a certainty that all who see her will love her.
Arthur did not know that he would fall for her. That was not in his plan. He wanted to make the film he had been working toward ever since film school. Heck, ever since he was twelve. That should be consuming his mind, all that should matter now.
But to see her tear up, the make up of grime and real sweat all over, looking straight him and then pick up her sword to charge, that was it. And he had to wonder, What’s next?
Which one should be expanded?
