Merlin.

I believe that the two of us need to have a little chat.

Don't be too hard on him.

I'm growing tired of people keeping secrets from me, vampire.

It's not a secret if it's information you don't need to have.

But I speak of myself there. As for Merlin, he's told me the policy on magic in Camelot. If you feared for your life, who would you tell? If your secret could get your friends killed, I bet you wouldn't tell a soul.

We know he has magic here because most of us have grown up listening to legends. He had no choice here, we all knew who he was the moment he told us his name.

By the way, in said stories you were a fair and merciful leader. Which is how I know you're not going to drive Merlin off for having lied to you.

He still ought to have told me.

[He sighs.]

...No. I'm not going to drive him off, but I do not intend on letting him lie to me any further.

Prince or not, I can't imagine the kingdom would look kindly on you knowingly harboring a wizard. I'm sure that was one of his concerns, perhaps even more than worrying that you'd turn him in.

[Horst's expression softens a little.]

You know Merlin. He wasn't lying to you to be malicious. Go easy on him; he'll trust you more for it than if you yell.

I just... [Frustrated noise.] This doesn't make any sense. Him. He of all people, a warlock. Stupid, incompetent, clumsy Merlin... A warlock, and all this time, he's been cleaning out my damned fireplace and mucking out the stables. Why?

[Video // Waaat lemme put my teeth in young 'un] ahandsomedevil January 31 2011, 05:46:56 UTC

[Horst scoffs] Probably because he can't get a better job. I hope you give him a raise.

Anyway--it is a safe cover. Being clumsy and whatever else. After all, no one suspected magic was afoot.

[Video // I don't even] kingoftheround January 31 2011, 06:10:46 UTC

No. No one did. ...heh.

[Video // Not really private anymore] ahandsomedevil January 31 2011, 06:24:58 UTC

Well, you know what they say. Nothing mends a friendship like ale.

When you two come home I'll try to leave some food out for you.
