The Only One Who Knew Me/Merthur

Kinda Liked It

Gwaine was a mess.

Gwaine was screaming to the sky and gods above him, offering to trade his life for Merlin's, while Arthur, his supposed soulmate, just stared at the writing on his wrist.

Emrys.

Of bloody fucking course it was Merlin.

Merlin, who insisted on " protecting " Arthur wherever he went.

Merlin, who was always honest about his opinions on things from Arthur's holes in his belt to magic.

His bloody fucking magic.

Arthur was extremely close to fainting.

Like a bloody girl.

And where the hell was his damn blonde servant?

Arthur sighed, staring at Merlin's body.

Holding his wrist in front of him, he began to kind of like the idea of Merlin being his soulmate.

As if that thought had brought Merlin back to life, Merlin gasped, taking a breath.

Arthur immediately dropped to his knees, and Gwaine stopped screaming, choosing to crouch down next to Merlin.

" I-I tried t-to t-tell you, " Merlin stammered.

I-I can't die. "

Arthur's eyes widened to the size of the moon, the sun, whatever object was in the sky right then.

" What the fuck, Merlin. What the mother fuck. "

After a lot of discussion, it was agreed that Merlin had a long, long story to tell Arthur (and the knights, but right now Arthur could care less about them).

So, Merlin began to tell his tale, which would be become one of the greatest throughout history; starting with his account of an execution, disagreements and a chandelier.

" ... And anyways, she's dead. I guess the chandelier did its job pretty nicely. Unfortunately though, here's Arthur... "

Even despite the original uncomfortableness of his magic, the knights were laughing at their friend and their new knowledge of how king and (ex) servant met.

Then, Arthur popped the question (not the question, mind you).

" Merlin,  will you be my servant again? "

While many whooped and hollered, Pervival responded with, quite possibly, the most uncharacteristic reply ever from the knight.

" Thank fuck you're getting rid of that blonde bimbo. That lady was a bitch. "

It was safe to say all jaws dropped.

Percival kind of liked their surpriss.
