This muse jasjhdfgj why

[destinedtobeunpopular]

First you said that for sure you didn't have time to apply me in an actual "game", and now you're trying to make up excuses as to why you would have time already. It's fine, really, you don't have to send me anywhere! I'm perfectly comfortable right here!

At least you can wait a couple of months, can't you? Until you get past that last big project and can be absolutely sure?

Oh, and there's no need to somehow enable your friend to bring Arthur with me. I can manage without him for a while, I wouldn't mind at all! In fact, I think that would even be really nice!

Airing out your wardrobe? Why would it need that?

[pratful]

[ ... ]

It doesn't matter. Just do it and when you're done with that my boots need cleaning, my armor needs polishing, you can sharpen my sword and then I want ... [ and on and on and on he goes! ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

[Uuuuuuggghh.]

You're intent on making sure I really enjoy my break if I get one, aren't you?

[pratful]

Well if it's too much for you, you could quit. I wouldn't advise it though. Who knows when you'll find such a nice, cushy position like this one again.

[destinedtobeunpopular]

Don't tempt me.

[But, no, he meant it when he told Arthur he would be happy to be his servant until the day he dies.

...

What is he on, though?]

[pratful]

[ Henbane, remember. Henbane. ]

I'm just giving you the facts. It's easy enough to find another servant. Especially one that doesn't talk back. [ although he will miss all the prattling. ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

[Right, henbane. Or cider. Whichever.]

You'd miss me, I know you would.

[pratful]

No I wouldn't.

[ so quick to deny ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

[Nothing else to be expected from the great Arthur.]

You would.

[pratful]

No, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't.

[destinedtobeunpopular]

You're the only one here who actually believes any of that.

[pratful]

And I'm the only one who matters.

[destinedtobeunpopular]

Right, of course, my mistake.

[A pause, and then he shakes his head.]

I'm still not gonna believe it.

[pratful]

Fine, do as you want.




But you're wrong. Now don't you have those chores to see to? [ so, you know, he can weep once Merlin's gone. ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

[EYEROLLING, so much eyerolling.]

I guess I should get started if I'm going to finish during my lifetime.

[Whine whine.]

[pratful]

[ he snorts ]

Just make sure you do it out of my sight. I've had enough of you for one day.

[destinedtobeunpopular]

[Eyes...]

[pratful]

[ picks up a scroll and starts to pretend read it.

Well? ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

I'm not sure how much you mean that.

[pratful]

[ eye rolling ]

It means get to work!

[destinedtobeunpopular]

[He raises his hands, and turns around.]

Alright, alright.

[pratful]

[ he eyes that fading back ]

And since you're leaving, do stop by and fetch me some wine. I'm damn near parched!

[ ahem, and getting back to that scroll work now, yep ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

[With a light smile, he slows to glance back.]

I thought you didn't want to see me again today.

[pratful]

I don't. [ pointedly missing the point ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

[Snrk.]

But to get you the wine I'll have to come back here.
