April Fools, the best Merlin can come up with!

A beaver!HEEE HEEE HEE!

Camelot has been there a lot longer than Kilgharrah has been imprisoned, so seeing as the castle is centuries older than Kilgharrah, clearly there must be an entrance they got him in though.

I would compare magic more to an hammer axe or knife, the sword is solely an implement for battle, sure you can fight for good or you can fight for evil, but in the end a sword is only meant to be a weapon, magic on the other hand is so much more, so it's better compared to something that can also be used for making things, as opposed to only being used to fight.

Which is why I would compare it to tools, that's also often used as weapons, a knife is a typical weapon for assassins, yet they are far more used for cooking and woodcarving, than they are used for killing people.

The sword analogy work if you just want to get the idea that magic isn't evil, it's the magic users who can be evil out, but it's frankly a horrible comparison because magic is a multitool, whereas the sword is one of the most specialized tools that exist.

Haha, love how Arthur has the upper hand here!

And actually, you usually fare better at raising one eyebrow than the other, kind of like a dominant eyebrow tbingy...
So if your dominant eyebrow is blasted off, it might be easier to raise your nose hair mustache.

YASSSSSSS! FINNALY! DEATH TO THE SWORD-MAGIC COMPARISON! LONG LIVE THE PIN! Sorry it just that I've seen the sword thing soooo many times that the next time I read a fic with that in it I'm liable to punch my computer, again (I have a really bad habit of punching my computer. So much so that I'm genually shocked it hasn't broken yet)

love the Mighty python reference by the way the airspeed velocity of an unladen African swallow is, I have no idea ,but the air speed velocity of an unladen European swallow is about 24 miles per hour in aka 11 meters per second

I died. I literally died. My family thinks I'm insane. I was giggling before, but now it's gone too far.

What a truly awful pun. I'm impressed.

GREY BEARD HALT sorry *looks shifty* can I errrrrrrrrrrrr have your uh autograph *holds out quill*

This short also had me laughing, nearly in tears! Even though Merlin is filled with many serious scenes it also has many funny ones, and you do a great job of portraying that!

This chapter had me dying of laughter! It was so clever and so well written.
Great job :)

I laughed so hard it hurt when Gwaine showed up.

LOOOOVE the beaver!
