[Do books ring? If books ring, this book is ringing. If they don't ring, then the book is doing whatever it does to get Merlin's attention. This is important, Merlin, so you'd better answer!]
[This is a typical night, which means that Merlin is probably cooking or cleaning or making smoke horses somewhere, while Arthur is at the table--not eating so much as looking at things. Maps, mostly, studying the layout of this peculiar city. He's been here over a month now, but he's still getting used to the intricacies of this strange and labyrinthine place.
After a moment, though, he shoves them aside with a particularly sharp sigh, putting a hand over his eyes. It's a little melodramatic, and a little attention-seeking, so he certainly doesn't announce whatever has suddenly troubled him, but waits, holding that pose.]
[Kurt's smile is a bit forced, but he nonetheless walks in and eagerly hands Merlin the bundle of cookies.] White chocolate macadamia nut with cranberries. My own recipe.
