    Summary

    When Merlin walked in with a new pendant around his neck, Arthur noticed immediately. From the moment he saw it, the itchings of jealousy had begun crawling under his skin. He hated that feeling, but he got it surprisingly often when Merlin was involved. If Merlin should be wearing anyone’s pendant, it should be Arthur’s. The thought was as clear and undeniable as any Arthur had ever had.

    Summary

    Arthur wanted to focus on romance. His father had been adamant about marriage and settling down especially as Arthur grows older by the years, meaning he either finds someone himself or he agrees to an arranged marriage set up by his father – which might actually be the end of him.

    That being said, Arthur already had a someone in mind, a certain clumsy manservant of his that tripped over nothing and stumbled into his life randomly. He was annoyed that Morgana noticed his feelings before he did, she hasn’t stopped teasing him since Merlin first saved him from that old woman’s revenge plot and it was growing tiring. Unlike Morgana, however, Arthur had a plan to make Merlin his that was so fool-proof, even Lancelot had agreed it was good.

    He had taken all the things Merlin loved (and he loved about Merlin) and turned it into the perfect date, one that would be memorable for the two of them regardless of where their relationship goes.

    Now it was just a case of waiting for the right day.

    There's a little purple mark peering out just above the line of Merlin’s neckerchief.

    Arthur is staring at it.

    Summary

    There was a time, not so long ago, when Arthur would have said that Merlin is… maybe not weak per se, but certainly not strong. He's an untrained peasant, after all, unused to the rigorous training of the sword and shield, the weight of chainmail and plated armour, the endurance built by sustained battle. He doesn’t have the obvious bulk of a knight, nor the keen reflexes lacing his muscles. He’s… well, yes, Arthur supposes he would have thought Merlin weak.

    On his honour, he will never call Merlin weak after tonight.
