I do love the idea of Merlin the Great and Powerful Sorcerer still putting his foot in it, and being forgetful and still essentially being the same Merlin we know and love :D I would hate him to change too much!
I think Toby was too starstruck to care about Merlin's less-than-impressive entrance. He'll probably be telling that story for a while :D (although hopefully not anywhere too public!)
You're actually trying to reduce me to a quivering mess of love, aren't you? Thomas and Toby are fantastic, seriously. Thomas, so practical and Toby so awestruck! They're a wonderfully perfect juxtaposition.
And everyone loves a good juxtaposition. ^_^
Also, Merlin. But I've always loved your Merlin. :D
If I have managed to reduce you to a quivering mess of love then I am very flattered!! But then, Merlin is very easy to love :D
I'm glad you liked Thomas and Toby - I like to imagine Toby chattering on and being bouncy and wide-eyed about everything while Thomas just... pokes the fire a bit. But secretly of course Thomas knows ALL the gossip at court :) Actually there's another contrast for you - Thomas who says nothing and knows everything; and Toby who says a lot but is clueless about the way things really are!!
This is charming and funny throughout, but Thomas's last line just made me burst out laughing. So much love for him and awestruck Toby (and a mischievous Merlin)!
Thank you :) I love writing mischievious Merlin because I like to think that part of him wouldn't change too much, however powerful and important he might become!
