Steeling his nerves to make his way up to Francine's floor and then once again to knock on her door, Merlin poked his head slightly in to make sure it wasn't her roommate and he hadn't just made a fool of himself.

More so than usual.

Francine looked up from her book at the sound, and scrambled upright when she saw him in the doorway. "Hi!" she said brightly, hoping to God Emmett hadn't told him.... anything, really.

She was lucky that Merlin was no longer going to take seriously much of what Emmett said.

"Hullo, Francine!" He was there for a reason. A purpose. There was a plan to this. "Did you happen to need any defending against sweets?"

Smoooooth.

"Always," she said, both seriously and honestly. "Those mini-doughnuts on the desk rolled out of the vending machine and tried to jump into my mouth!

bigdamndestiny February 5 2009, 01:19:49 UTC

Merlin looked shocked by the audacity of those things. "Of course, this is why we don't have vending machines in Camelot," He said airily.

Francine eyed him, lips quirking. "Or doughnuts. Or chips, or marshmallows, or ice cream. So pretty much nothing to put in the vending machines."

"Although I wouldn't object to that fizzy drink being back home." Even if he did feel like running about after drinking it...

"Mmmm, caffeine." Granted if she had to pick only one, she'd go with sugar, but hey, there was pepsi and mochas, so she didn't! "I guess you could put, I dunno, roast pheasant and gruel in them? What do you have to eat in oldeny days?"

bigdamndestiny February 5 2009, 01:37:24 UTC

"I wouldn't say gruel," Merlin replied with a grin. "More like a porridge. My mum made it quite a bit. You just add to the grain with whatever you have on hand and it's really not bad."

"All I know about porridge is it comes with peas, bears like to eat it, and I wouldn't want it after it's been sitting around in a pot for nine days," she admitted.

bigdamndestiny February 5 2009, 01:46:36 UTC

"...nor do I."

"It's a nursery rhyme," Francine explained. "Pease porridge hot, pease porridge cold, pease porridge in the pot, nine days old."

bigdamndestiny February 5 2009, 01:50:25 UTC

"I think it would be like glue at that point," Merlin replied, making a face.

thatsamilkshake February 5 2009, 01:57:10 UTC

"It.... might be a nursery rhyme about making glue, I guess," she offered. "A lot of them don't make much sense."

bigdamndestiny February 5 2009, 01:58:47 UTC

Merlin nodded, looking around for something to focus on. Nothing popped out.

"Francine--" And he froze up like damp hair on a cold morning.

"Uh-huh?" She tilted her head at him, waiting.
