We are not going to discuss this. Any of this, ever again. Do you understand me? And where is my coat?

[Private to Morgana]
You knew, didn't you? How Merlin felt and you let me make a fool of myself on purpose. I swear. Do you hate me that much? Is my reputation that worthless to you?

Arthur? You... I... what?

Why... why are you saying this?

Don't fight me on this, Merlin. We are never going to talk about it again.

This-we-cannot happen.

Re: Private to Arthur/Merlin

I'm sorry. But I... I don't understand.

I thought you... you seemed...

Please, Arthur, don't do this.

Stop being foolish. It never would have worked. Why are you making this harder than it needs to be. Stop it.

You know, Merlin, there are plenty of similarly inclined people in this town. You'll have your pick of potential partners.

So last night was what then, Sire? Just... a whim? A test? Just another bloody way to use the servant for your entertainment? Because I don't see how it could have meant anything to you at all if it required only several hours to decide it 'never would have worked.'

Of course, Sire. Because what I feel for you is that replaceable, that petty.

It will never work, Merlin. Don't be an idiot, or I might dismiss you from my sight for good.

This is about your father, isn't it, Arthur? Don't do this. Please, please don't do this. We'll work through it. He doesn't have to know now, and one day if and when we decide he should find out, we will make him understand.

Arthur, you don't want to do this. I know you don't. I know you feel this too.

Which part of 'don't be an idiot' did you not understand? If I was afraid of my father nothing would have happened to begin with.

I have more important things to worry about.

Re: Private to Arthur/Merlin

...Right.

Right then.

Of course you do.

Suppose that's all there is to say on the matter, then.

Your coat is at the dry cleaner's, Sire, I felt that it could use a good pressing. Shall I fetch your other one for you? It's a bit filthy but I can fix that, of course. Will you require anything else at the moment, Sire?

Such a girl.

The other one will be perfectly fine. And now that you mention it, I need you to find out where Morgana is currently.
