That was cute. I liked how Arthur went through all that just for a date. HA!

[alafaye]

Arthur can't do anything simply. :D

[brunettepet]

That was hilarious. Merlin's right, Arthur needs more socializing. This is not how people wanting to get in someone's good graces act.

[alafaye]

Merlin will teach him better manners (though not on how to ask someone on a date because, well, Merlin's keeping Arthur, am I right?)

:D

LOL! This has to be the most convoluted way to (simply? nah!) ask someone for a date. But we all know he'll give in eventually!

[alafaye]

I don't think Arthur knows any other way of asking ;)

Of course Merlin will say yes--but he'll make sure that Arthur does it the right way ;)

They're really dysfunctional idiots! But very cute ones! ;-)

[alafaye]

And at least Merlin doesn't mind ;)

Oh, man, that made me laugh. Nice job.

Thank you :D
