Thank you!

Lancelot is on an official ban from ever telling Arthur stories again.

Am I a terrible person for finding that moment funny? It was just so....unexpected, and him, and so very UNHELPFUL.

Absolutely brilliant, love -- having this at a point where Lancelot is still thinking of Arthur as the enemy was genius!

[sasha_b]

NO kidding. He has horrible timing.

I thought it was rather funny myself, so you're right in my class, dear. *laughs* He's ... his ego will never leave him, that's for sure.

Glad you liked it - and thanks for reading, honey!

Awwwww honey that is so sweet and what a great birthday gift! I love that Arthur was kind to his horse. And wet Arfa/Lance is always a glorious sight. *g* Wonderful slice of life from their youth, honey. As always you are the consummate storyteller. And as always, Lance is the perfect smart ass. *laughs*

Thank you so much for this gift!

Love you very much!

I'm so glad you liked it! I was afraid that you might think Arthur came off as too weak here - but you know in my fanon he's afraid of storms, especially as a young man. As an older man, he might be afraid, but he'd be more still and less inclined to ask Lancelot to tell him a story *laughs* I love them and am happy for any excuse to write about them.

I really hope your birthday is fantastic and you enjoy it. You deserve every happiness and I'm so glad to be a part of it and your life.

Love you too xxoo <333

I enjoyed reading your ficlet. I especially liked the part about Arthur being afraid of the storm. LOL! Big brave warrior but afraid of thunder. Classic. Thanks.

[sasha_b]

Thanks Laura! In my head canon Arthur is afraid of storms but hides it really well - the only thing he's rather not fond of even as an adult. ;)

I appreciate the read. :)
