This is amazing, perfectly worded. I love how it reads

Seriously, that moment in the ep was such a standout, the fic wrote itself.

THIS. I could see this happening; I really could. Oh god, I wish it had happened.

The bit about their tangled legs is lovely, and I always love it when Arthur realizes that his knights are loyal not only to him but also to Merlin. And I love how you portrayed just the slightest bit of jealousy on Arthur's part towards Lancelot (because seriously, in 4.01 and 4.02, Lance seemed closer to Merlin than Arthur, which pained my fangirl heart because yeah, Merthur forever and ever.)

Your writing is getting better and better. Good work :)

Your praise is making me blush. Thank you :D

Oh, lovely! Well done! In-between-scene fics are so much fun :D
