aww yeah it is the best decision ever

[verybigpheasants]

Hardly my place to tell you how you're doing, isn't it? [ Gwaine, you shit: the short novel. ] I don't imagine most of you would want one of us offering insight. You ought to see it from where I'm standing!

A few days in, not halfway done, making swift choices about looking for a place to settle in.

Sounds like a plan to be embraced, actually. Good work! We might just manage to get along. [ Like you wouldn't barge into a place on your own to hang out with Merlin and the others anyway really bro. ]

And a fair point. If I'm to head into the houses of the gods, though, you'd better be more sure of where I'll be staying. I'll take a place that's useful over fitting, if you'd like to conspire over it a little. No fun being there if you can't lend a hand, eh? [ no BUT THAT ISN'T HOW IT WORKS. ]

Arthur would be happy to have you.

hi :D

[dragonspeak]

"Might"? Sounds like you're getting along just fine to me.

Sooooo. You're coming to the city. Should I warn the taverns to expect you beforehand? I think it's only fair to give them time to prepare.

[Do you see that smile? Someone's missed you.]

we're all jumping you now.

[burping]

Mundanes hardly seem to listen to reason it seems.

oh hi there don't mind me being awful a;sdlkfj

[verybigpheasants]

Ah- and I'm sure I'd be happy to have him. [ It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a little harsh on his buzz. Well. Such is the life, is it not? 'why your majesty, you're certainly looking well-minded today--' ] All rightfully so. What is a knight without his Prince?

hello c:

[verybigpheasants]

What's to warn about? A respectful patron with a good, clean reputation like myself? [ So super serious. He is the most serious of them all.

also have a SHOULDER-CLAP. ] Wouldn't spend too long in there trying to raise the alarm if I were you, though. You might open your mouth and start a fight without me!

Not. At. All ksjhdgdfj.

[foodshortage]

[ Asgard has changed the man no one thought could be changed (because he didn't have much choice), Gwaine would probably be surprised.

He does give the slightest grimace at "knight", though. Arthur, your ruling choices... ]

King, in Asgard.

[dragonspeak]

Wouldn't want you to miss the fun now.

[He's just going to grin a bit...and then he realises what Gwaine was implying. ]

Oy, what's that supposed to mean? It's not always my fault.

I will be piled valiantly :'|

[verybigpheasants]

Is that so? [ Considering this... ] Maybe we'll work together better than I was thinking. I wouldn't complain for it.

[verybigpheasants]

Is he? That's... sooner than expected. [ Eyebrows up, full contemplation on lend for imagining it. King Arthur. Hasn't got much of a ring to it. Hmm oh, oh, of course, forgot something. ] Sire.

[verybigpheasants]

[ WATCH HIM THINK UP THE STATISTICS, complete with full grin action.

Let's see, three tavern disagreements he's been in that Merlin was involved with so far, and two of those were started by... hmm. Could be that Merlin has a bit of a point there. ]

All right. But how many do you improve? [ he loves you bro he promises ]

[dragonspeak]

[Sure you do.]

All of them, if you're not there.

[He laughs, drawing Gwaine in for a hug.] It's good to see you again. Things haven't been as interesting without you.

[verybigpheasants]

[ And a laugh/hug combo well-returned. He sort of missed Merlin and the man himself was swift to turn up to this. Can't imagine running a few months.

Well, he can. But you know. ]

We'll soon remedy all that! You'll be sick of me before you realize!

[dragonspeak]

I'll believe it when I see it.

[And by that he means it'll probably never happen, of course.]

Why don't you tell me what your mun's got planned for you?

[verybigpheasants]

I'll assist however I can. [ Beauty of being friends with Merlin, though; hasn't got sick of him to date. And in the answering of that question, he may as well do it with a little style. Flourish and a half-assed bow and everything. ]

House of Heimdall, at your service. Energy Lending. Not a terrible set. [ If he gets himself killed he can nip things in the bud before some idiot tries damage draining him. Good for the pride. ] Would've had her over to Thor if I could.

[ Maybe just to arm-wrestle Percival if ever he turned up. Still though. ]

[dragonspeak]

Energy Lending. [It's definitely not terrible at all.] It suits you.

[Merlin gives Gwaine a nudge.] Maybe she's got the right idea, avoiding Thor. Just imagine all the trouble you'd get into with Strength.

[Now that's another thing Merlin ends up grinning at. Strength. It'd be fitting, in a way.]

[verybigpheasants]

What's a harmless brawl between gambling partners with a strength inhuman? [ He knows precisely. ] You would be thinking ahead to all that, of course. Save you and old Gaius the extra work.

[foodshortage]

Hm.

I suppose it is.

[dragonspeak]

Well. [Rolling his shoulders back pointedly.] Someone's got to look out for you, right?

[verybigpheasants]

Yes. [ Stands there a w k w a r d l y. Little bit of whistling and all that.

Rocks on the balls of his feet a few times.

Gwaine even considers staying silent voluntarily.

... Considers. ]

If it helps at all, Your Majesty, you're not the only important man who came out of everything dead. There's probably a full list of casualties somewhere.

[foodshortage]

...

[ Good lord.

Somewhat blankly: ]

In the end, don't we all...

[verybigpheasants]

[ s n o r t. it's instinct. Scrawny little fella. But it's also pretty true. ]

Could be. [ Shoulder-shove. :| Merlin, Merlin, doing nice things for everyone but not for a reward. What would everyone do without him. ] If you can manage not to forget it goes both ways. I'd hate to have to remind you by force.

[dragonspeak]

[Have a snort back, and another elbow-nudge in retaliation.]

Do you ever do it any other way? It's not like I have much of a choice once you decide on something.

[But that's what he likes about you.]

[verybigpheasants]

Of course, you also have the advantage of having raised Arthur. He's a good man. Chooses his friends wisely. [ Don't tell him I said that. ]

[verybigpheasants]

Of course you've got a choice! You can accept it or be dragged along with it anyway.

See? It's not so bad, is it?

[dragonspeak]

Being dragged along sounds pleasant. I'd hate to see what you think not having a choice looks like.

[Now he'll just sit back and smile.]

You know, Arthur will be glad to have you around, even if he says otherwise. Lancelot's the only knight we've got from home right now.
