Merlin blasé about nudity

Sep 12, 2021 01:15

I’m looking for a specific fic and also for recommendations.

I read a fic about 10 years ago (lol) and I only remember this one scene about it.

The scene was from Merlin’s POV. Merlin was bathing in the physician’s chambers (not in his own inner room). Arthur was there stirring some potion that Gaius asked him to stir. Merlin was like “I think Arthur’s stirring it wrong.” He gets up from the tub, naked and dripping wet and comes up behind Arthur. Arthur was progressively being aggressive in stirring as he hears Merlin gets closer and closer. And Merlin’s just “Arthur, you’re being too rough. Stir it gentler.” The potion explodes or spills. Merlin gets a broom to clean up the broken glass (still naked, btw) and Arthur’s just averting his eyes. Gaius comes in, looks at a flushed Arthur, and tells Merlin to finish his bath and put some clothes on.

It’s Merthur but in this scene, they’re not in a relationship yet.

I really hope this is from a popular fic because I can’t find it in my favorites and it’s killing me.

Any fics with Merlin nonchalant about being naked are also welcome!
