Give us Dresden Files/Merlin/Sherlock Holmes. Prompt: "Eliminate the impossible and whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be true, even if it happens to be two time traveling wizards and the Once and Future King of Britain."

I hate to say it but I’ve almost gotten used to facing wizards who break the Laws. It’s a sad thing to admit, even to myself, that I’m no longer surprised when I come face to face with a young dark wizard. Even if my nightmares say otherwise.
But I can honestly say that I wasn’t expecting the Law to be broken to be the one I faced today.
“Time travel,” I repeated, my voice was high with disbelief.
Luccio gave me an uncomfortable look.
It made me notice how oddly skittish everyone on in the warehouse was acting. I would almost say it was like they’d seen a ghost. Only I know better than to think that would spook any of them

OMG this is fabulous! I don't even know the Merlin fandom yet I was sucked right into this story. That's one really intriguing plot you're creating. And mixing Murph into this! Ohhh, I want to see. Harry's voice was absolutely perfect; his phrasing, his humor, his reactions, were right out of one of the original novels. If I didn't know I'd thought it had been written by Butcher himself. Please say you're going to continue this!

I sputtered in disbelief before straightening myself up to every inch height to glare down at Merlin. Super-powered wizard or not, Murph was my friend

I know, right? I mean, on the one hand, World's Greatest Detective, but on the other, kind of a bipolar coke fiend. Add to that the whole Victorian attitude thing, and I really don't see that being comfortable for anyone.

And suddenly it occurs to me, Murphy's a high-end black belt in aikido and Holmes both boxes and practices Baritsu, a Victorian English adaptation of judo. This just keeps getting scarier the more I think about it!

Fortunately for me, and for the carrying capacity of the Blue Beetle, Luccio decided that the first priority of her Wardens was keeping the rest of the Senior Council safe and away from anything sent by an infamous sorcerer like Mordred.
Mordred could give Merlin a run for his money, according to legend. No one wanted to come up against his forces unless there was no other choice.
The Senior Council’s decision to leave as soon as possible was helped along when Merlin told them all that Mordred’s undead knights were especially resistance to magic and physical attacks. Even he could barely slow one down.
And Mordred had sent almost two dozen.
I never had more of a reason to compare the most power wizards on the planet to scared rabbits like I did at that moment. And I tried not to think about what it said about my own sanity that I was ignoring my screaming survival instincts - which were that I head for the nearest bunker and huddle there until this blew over - to help out Merlin and King Arthur. Okay so technically he was

Murphy took the news of the arrival of Merlin and Arthur on her door surprisingly well.
I thought there would have been at least a little surprise at finding out that your great-great-who-really-knew-how-many-times-great ancestor was King freaking Arthur. I still was having a hard time wrapping my head around it and I wasn’t the one with the direct lineage
