[This sad dream reminds Angelina of some romance novels the few female writers of her time have written. Realizing it must be a memory, the woman felt a hint of likeness in her and this young man's lives.]
So young and yet witnessed such loss. That is utterly sad.
The voice, as it is unfamiliar, jerks Merlin to attention while he's getting ready for his day. Planning on making breakfast before the prince awakens and has a fit.
He's not too happy that people can just see his dreams, but he half smiles at the woman. ]
I'm just...glad she isn't suffering anymore, honestly.
[She will, she is too sad to control her emotions. Besides, she is a nice and compassionate person, more or less. 'Less' would be the murdering and psychotic part.]
I'm sorry about disturbing you, Merlin. Your dream just... reminded me of the people I have lost.
Oh, it's fine. That was a long time ago, anyway. I just couldn't ignore it, because I wanted to know what kind of person could have experienced something like that... I must say, I like you, Merlin.
[You make her laugh. She likes you more and more, cute young man.]
Could it be that you are referring to Arthur? If so, just tell him to take care of things by himself for once, otherwise I won't be teaching him any good recipes anymore. [Giggle.]

Sorry, have we met before?

Oh, no, I am afraid I haven't had the pleasure. I am Madame Red.

Nice to meet you, Madame Red. Even if this isn't the best time. I'm Merlin.

Well I'm glad. You're not so bad yourself, Madame Red.

Thank you. Then, Merlin, I will let you rest now. I think you need it. [Playful wink.] Until we meet again.

Likewise, Madame. Unfortunately I won't be doing much resting while I have a cranky prince to tend to.

You would be right. He's not entirely capable of handling simple things by himself at times. [ Taps the side of his head. ] He's not all there.
Oh. You were teaching him how to cook? I'm sorry.

Oh, dear heavens, no! You may call it 'highest society', but I have no relations to the Queen.

My mistake then. Good to know there are others Arthur can bond with though. And ones that don't plan on making me wash their socks.
...Or I should hope you don't.
