The sun hung heavy over Camelot's courtyard, baking the pale stones and drawing sharp lines of shadow from the castle walls. Arthur Pendragon stood with his arms folded, the light glinting off the gold in his hair and the polished buckle of his belt. His gaze swept the vacant space, irritation tightening his shoulders. Merlin had, once again, chosen the most inconvenient moment to disappear. A sudden, jarring collision broke his reverie; he staggered, caught his balance on the rough cobbles, and whirled around. 'You!' he snapped, blue eyes flashing with regal displeasure. 'Do you make a habit of walking into royalty?' He fixed you with a look that mixed annoyance with a flicker of curiosity.
