Here it is the final chapter. Again apologies for any formatting errors as I can't work out why it went wrong and with only one chapter left it seemed stupid to dwell on it. Of course this would have to be the longest chapter.

The title does somewhat give away who was listening but I was pretty sure you had all worked that out. Enjoy! :)

Arthur

Arthur was stood just outside of Gwaine's chambers and fury was welling up within him. He had been a victim of their pranks and he wanted to burst in the room and tell them that they had been caught! Something held him back as he digested the information and the confirmation that the knights had been behind the many unfortunate happenings over the past week. He realised that he was actually more miffed that they hadn't included him than anything else. Arthur could hear the revelling and laughter coming from behind the door and found himself, not for the first time, wishing he could be part of it. But he was Prince Arthur and that was a problem in itself.

He started to wander back to his chambers. Being the only prince he had often been sheltered and not been able to take part in some of the childish nonsense that the knights often got themselves into. As much as he had privilege he was also denied friends. He had the pressure of the kingdom to run because his father was now unable to do so and often he had shirked the idea of help which he believed would show weakness. He had often pushed the knights and Merlin away when they offered help but that had also meant he was separated from them. How could Prince Arthur endorse a game of Truth or Dare? Yet all he wanted was to be a part of it. He wanted to be a prince that Camelot could be proud of but sometimes he just wanted to be Arthur and just be one of the knights. A contradiction in terms.

He entered his chambers and slowly undressed. Merlin would no doubt check that he was alright before going to bed himself. Arthur smiled to himself as he realised that Merlin was not the usual type of servant. Arthur rather liked how Merlin would come back with surly retorts and tell him that he was a prat. Gwaine's description of calling him a 'princess' was endearing but many like Agravaine would see it as disrespectful. Arthur realised that he often scolded the knights for their behaviour and that was why they couldn't include him. Not to mention he was Prince Arthur.

Arthur lay back on his made bed, Merlin wasn't as bad as he said, and stared at the canopy. He had been so stressed lately with everything going on with Morgana, his uncle's suggestions and Uther being a shadow of his former self. Arthur missed the fun he used to have but he had scolded the knights when they tried to inject some humour and fun into the day. No wonder they didn't include him. He wasn't a fun person to be around at the moment.

Arthur could hear footsteps approaching and the door creaked open. He closed his eyes to give the impression that he was asleep and Merlin sorted something on the dresser before leaving quietly.

A thought came to Arthur as he wondered how he could have some fun and make it clear to the others that he wanted to be included in future, whenever possible. He smiled at his thought as he realised that it would show that he had a sense of humour after all.

Arthur rolled over onto his side and smiled. His plan would need help but in the end it might just give off the right message.

The next morning Arthur was woken as the curtains were pulled across lighting the room with the sun's rays.

'Rise and shine,' Merlin called gleefully as Arthur groaned and rolled away from the light. 'Come on lazy bones.' There was another of Merlin's quirks. What other servant would speak to a prince like that?

Merlin tapped Arthur on the shoulder as Arthur realised he had kicked the sheets off during the night as he had been too hot. 'Go away,' he murmured.

A knock came at the door and Arthur called, 'Come in.'

Agravaine came in and looked down disapprovingly. 'Sire, we have a letter from Lord Selwyn who wishes to conduct the renewal of the beef contract as soon as possible as he will be away from his estate when it runs out,' Agravaine informed Arthur.

'Right,' Arthur murmured sleepily until Merlin flicked water at him. 'Merlin!' Arthur shot up and looked straight at his grinning servant. Agravaine looked like he had swallowed a radish.

'You're awake now,' Merlin said triumphantly.

'Apparently so,' Arthur glared back.

'I'll send a party as soon as possible,' Arthur told his uncle as an idea entered his head. He needed to confirm his intentions with two friends first and then he could set it up. His thought must have shown on his face as Agravaine cleared his throat.

'You don't think Lord Selwyn will have any problems with the agreement do you?' Agravaine asked.

'No, I'm sure it will be fine,' Arthur smiled back. Merlin appeared holding a clean shirt. 'I'm surprised you can function this morning, Merlin. You were late to bed last night,' he teased.

'I'm more resilient than you think,' Merlin replied haughtily with a hint of a smile. Arthur noticed Agravaine's sour look at Merlin.

'Is that all Uncle?'

Yes, sire,' Agravaine bowed and left.

'He hates me doesn't he?' Merlin asked.

'Hate is a strong word,' Arthur grinned. 'Dislike is more appropriate,' Arthur was glad to see Merlin roll his eyes.

Arthur visited his father early in the afternoon and ran into Gwen who had taken the job of looking after the King.

'How is he?' he asked.

'Same as usual,' she said quietly. It was clear that Morgana's betrayal had broken the once fierce and commanding King who now was hardly recognisable. Arthur sighed as he realised his father would never be as he once was.

'Gwen, when you're finished could you get Gaius and meet me in my chambers please?' Arthur asked.

'Why? Is something wrong?' Gwen looked concerned and he realised that the phrasing of his words could have been better.

'No, nothing's wrong, I promise,' he cupped her cheek in his hand. 'There's something I want to discuss with both of you.' He kissed her on the forehead and left as Gwen looked after him with a confused expression.

Arthur returned to his chambers to find Merlin there and realised he needed to get rid of him quickly.

'Merlin. Go and muck out my horses,' Arthur commanded but Merlin was smiling.

'I already did that,' Merlin was far too happy for Arthur's liking. Arthur suddenly realised that there was one job that Merlin hadn't yet completed.

'Merlin,' his servant looked up, 'My dirty armour needs cleaning. Go down to the armoury and make sure it's spotless.' Arthur could see the sudden annoyance in Merlin's eyes but Merlin stormed over to Arthur's dirty armour from where he fell in the ditch and moved towards the door. 'I want it spotless,' Arthur called after him as Merlin could only glare back. Arthur smiled to himself at Merlin's response.

Arthur lay down on his bed and waited for Gwen and Gaius to appear. About half an hour later there was a knock at the door and Arthur called for them to come in. Both Gwen and Gaius looked rather confused at their summons but Arthur knew they would be happy they came.

'I asked you here because we all share the same problem...' Arthur started and looked to the other two. Gaius was clearly confused but Gwen's eyes lit up as she realised what he was talking about.

'The knights,' she said starting to smile.

'And Merlin,' Arthur nodded. Gaius was now smiling.

'Have you both been pranked?' he smiled.

'How did you guess?' Arthur smiled back as Gwen's smile faded slightly as she nodded. 'They swapped my perfume and I ended up with a blue neck,' Gwen said quietly.

'I fell into a muddy ditch on the training ground,' Arthur grumbled.

'Well, my glasses went missing, my draughts were switched around and one of them was trapped in my cupboard. Although I must have fallen asleep because I don't know who it was,' Gaius smiled.

'I think it's time for some payback,' Arthur's eyes were glistening with mischief.

'But you said you couldn't prove it,' Gwen asked curiously.

'I overheard them celebrating in Gwaine's chambers last night,' Arthur was smirking now. 'They have been playing Truth or Dare?'

Gaius couldn't help but laugh.

'To be honest I'm slightly irritated that they didn't include me!' Arthur whined. 'I think it is time for revenge but my uncle must not hear about it.'

'How do you propose to do that?' Gwen asked.

'Simple. I send him to Lord Selwyn where he will have to stay overnight,' Arthur was glad he already had a plan to get his uncle out of the way. 'I just need to know if my idea is feasible and how long we will need to set it up.'

Arthur discussed his idea with Gwen and Gaius and they worked out all they would need and who needed to do what. Soon they had a plan of action and were ready to unleash it on the unsuspecting knights and Merlin.

A couple of days passed and the knights were back on their normal schedule now that the summer solstice had passed. In private they still discussed their pranks and were incredibly proud of themselves.

'Thank you for agreeing to go Uncle,' Arthur said as Agravaine climbed atop his horse. 'I will see you tomorrow evening. Have a good trip.'

'Thank you, Arthur,' Agravaine said as he kicked his horse forward. He was still slightly confused as to why he needed to see Lord Selwyn in person but Arthur had been most insistent.

Agravaine disappeared into the distance and Arthur couldn't help but crack a smile. Now all he needed was to run a tiring training session as the knights always went to the tavern after working hard.

Arthur put the knights through their paces with attack drills and all of the knights showed enthusiasm for the training. Arthur also made sure that Merlin was part of it too.

'C'mon Merlin. Move your feet,' Arthur said to his servant as Merlin crashed to the ground for the second time in as many minutes.

The knights laughed at the sight of Merlin sprawled on the floor while Arthur's servant glared back.

'C'mon Merlin. It's a wonder you survive the battles but then again you never actually fight,' Arthur teased and Merlin wanted to magic the nearby helmet slapping the prince in the face.

Percival and Leon faced off with Percival the stronger man but Leon the more distinguished fighter. The fight looked to be even until Leon swiftly pirouetted underneath Percival's arms and then pushed on Percival's back, forcing the big man to the floor. Leon raised his arms in victory while Percival muttered something incoherent.

'Is it me or did the ground just quake?' Gwaine asked mockingly as Percival glared back. Gwaine then made the mistake of turning his back on Percival and the big man pounced. Gwaine was slung over Percival's shoulder in a second and Percival charged towards the pile of hay at the edge of the training ground.

'NO! NO! PERCIVAL NO!' but Gwaine's protests fell on deaf ears as he was flung into the hay. Percival looked rather happy with himself as he returned to the other men while everyone else was laughing. Gwiane managed to extricate himself from the hay but he had lots of hay in his normally bushy dark locks. He tried to brush himself down but the pout on his face made everyone laugh harder than before.

'Well Gwaine, have you learnt your lesson?' Arthur asked not bothering to hide his amusement.

'Yeah,' Gwaine nodded. 'Yeah...break Percival's legs so he can't lift me up.' Percival charged but Gwaine was too quick as they dodged around the remaining men.

'Hey! Leave us out of this!' Elyan called as they moved out of the way so there was only clear air between the two knights.

'Ready for seconds Gwaine?' Percival called grinning.

'You have to catch me first slowpoke,' Gwaine started sprinting towards the castle with Percival charging behind him. Everyone else just couldn't stop laughing.

Arthur and the remaining men returned to the castle but Arthur held back as he saw Gwen walking towards him. This wasn't unusual so the knights didn't even register it.

'Is everything ready?' Arthur asked as Gwen nodded. 'Just make sure they get to the tavern,' she replied as she disappeared into another corridor.

Arthur caught up with the knights and smiled as Percival now had Gwaine in a head lock.

Percival, as much as Gwaine is annoying I think you should let him go. After all he is rather good with a sword and it would be a shame to lose him,' Arthur smiled as Percival finally let Gwaine go.

'Thanks Arthur,' he sputtered.

On the bright side,' Leon started, 'we now know how to shut Gwaine up!' Even Gwaine couldn't stop his laughter as the knights were in good spirits.

'Doesn't mean I can't drink!' Gwaine finally responded and Arthur knew the knights would make it to the tavern. Now he had to make sure Merlin went without his servant being suspicious.

Arthur and Merlin started towards Arthur's chambers and Merlin said something about getting a bath ready. Arthur started to remove his armour the best he could without Merlin but ended up sitting on his bed frowning.

'What's up?' Merlin startled Arthur from his thoughts.

'Nothing,' Arthur replied but Merlin raised an eyebrow and clearly wasn't convinced. 'You going to the tavern with the knights later?' Arthur changed the subject.

'Probably not,' Merlin sighed as he helped Arthur remove the last of his armour.

'Oh Merlin,' Arthur said dramatically. 'Enjoy yourself for one night but don't let it make you think you can do it all the time.'

'But you said I spend too much time in the tavern,' Merlin responded. 'Although technically you're wrong because I spend very little time in the tavern,' Merlin added.

'I'm sure you'll be aching tomorrow so enjoy this evening,' Arthur lay back on the bed but his tone almost made it a command.

'If I'm honest. I'm feeling it already,' Merlin winced.

'Then we need to get you better trained, don't we?' Arthur flashed a smile.

'Is that all, my lord?' Merlin bowed mockingly with emphasis on the final two words. Arthur narrowed his eyes and Merlin quickly backtracked towards the door grinning at Arthur's response, leaving Arthur to his bath. Soon Merlin was out the door and Arthur was satisfied that Merlin would be in the tavern with the knights. If not, he was sure Gaius could sort something out.

The knights and Merlin were sat around the knights' favourite table in the Rising Sun tavern but Merlin was still wondering why Arthur had suggested that he go.

'He never encourages me to go to the tavern,' Merlin looked uneasily at Lancelot.

'He did come at you pretty hard in training today,' Lancelot reasoned as at that moment Percival got his revenge on Leon by beating the blonde knight at arm wrestling. 'Maybe he was apologising.'

'This is Arthur,' Merlin looked disbelievingly at his friend. 'He's up to something but I don't know what.'

'Stop worrying about it. Arthur is a difficult person to understand,' Lancelot placed a hand on Merlin's shoulder and felt Merlin start to relax.

As the knights revelled in the corner, Gwen slipped unnoticed into the tavern and met her friend Sarah. Sarah was a barmaid and was very beautiful. She had gold locks, a heart-shaped face and her blue eyes were dark and Gwen swore they sparkled. Sarah was well acquainted with Gwaine so there would be no suspicion with her presence, unlike the other barmaid, Mary, who tended to steer well clear of the knights.

'Gwen,' Sarah smiled but Gwen put a finger to her lips and Sarah moved closer.

'I need you to put these,' Gwen held up three light purple solutions, 'into the knights' next round of drinks.' Sarah looked at Gwen strangely and didn't take the vials.

'What are they?' Sarah asked.

'They're sleeping draughts,' Gwen replied with a small smile. 'Here is money for a large jug of mead for them to share. We need them not to leave with anyone.' Sarah still looked confused. 'We're not going harm, just teach them a lesson.' Sarah finally nodded and filled a large jar with mead.

Gwen quickly moved to leave but watched as Sarah sauntered over to the knights with the jug. Sarah was greeted by Gwaine who quickly dragged her closer as his arm went around her waist.

'What's this?' Gwaine asked.

'It's on the house,' she smiled but the knights looked confused. 'You're some of our best customers and we liked to look after you all,' Sarah put on the charm and the knights started to accept her explanation. She also used the jug to refill their tankards and Gwen was glad to see that they would all drink some. Gwen left quickly to make sure she wasn't noticed.

About half an hour later the knights started to feel the effects of the sleeping draughts and decided that going to bed was the best idea. Nobody at the time found it unusual as they had had a tiring day. The knights headed up to their chambers while Merlin headed towards his bed in the physicians quarters.

Gaius was still awake and only just managed to hide his smile as Merlin wandered in.

'You're up late,' the younger man commented.

'Going to bed soon,' Gaius replied as Merlin's eyes started to droop. 'You may want to sleep with your shirt off Merlin, it is rather warm and humid tonight.' Merlin didn't have the energy to respond verbally and just nodded as he slightly tripped up the stairs to his room.

Gaius waited until he heard Merlin stop moving and quietly made his way to the council chambers where Gwen and Arthur were waiting.

'Did it work?' Arthur asked as soon as Gaius entered the room.

'Yes,' Gaius grinned. 'Merlin could barely keep his eyes open.' Arthur and Gwen shared a smile as they quickly prepared everything they need for their plan.

They decided that Merlin would be their 'test subject' and if something went wrong on Merlin that it didn't matter so much. Merlin had taken Gaius' advice and was sprawled on top of his sheets with a bare chest on full display. They knew that they had to be as quiet and as light-handed as possible but at the sight of Merlin both Arthur and Gwen had to stifle laughs. This caused Gaius to frown and Merlin to murmur in his sleep.

Slowly the three of them got to work and when they'd finished they were proud of their work. They quietly made their way up to Elyan's room and Gwen grinned broadly at what they were going to do to her brother. He was also on his back and shirtless in the humid summer heat and having perfected their technique on Merlin they were much quicker this time. Gwen was first out of the door as she could no longer stifle her laugh.

Leon was next and the knight stirred slightly as they entered the room. All three intruders stood stock still and thankfully Leon was too asleep to notice them. The moonlight was shining in as they quickly got to work.

Gwaine was next and just to be different the knight was lying on his front. This presented a problem so Gaius and Arthur quickly and carefully turned him over. Gwaine grasped Arthur's hand and started nuzzling it. Arthur looked appalled while Gwen and Gaius did their best to stifle their laughs. Arthur finally managed to get his hand back and they got to work.

Percival was in an even stranger position as he lay diagonally across his bed. His right foot was slowly moving up and down off the bed while his left arm was underneath his pillow. His broad chest was completely on show and his rhythmical breathing was almost hypnotic.

Lancelot was the last of the knights and the sun was starting to rise. The knight was lying on his left side and his legs were entangled in the sheets. He looked very peaceful but as Gaius and Arthur managed to move him onto his back Lancelot kicked at the motion and caught Arthur rather high up on the thigh. Gwen was struggling to hold it together at Arthur's silent curse.

Soon after the three decided to go to their own beds, knowing that the knights would sleep far longer than they would normally due to the sleeping draughts they had consumed.

Morning came and went as the knights continued to sleep. Arthur peaked his head around Percival's door and smiled heartily at his work. He met Gaius and Gwen and they ate lunch together waiting for the results of their prank.

Percival woke first and stretched his large muscles to wake himself up. He suddenly realised that his skin felt taught in places and looked to his arms and chest. To his horror they were covered in rather large yellow boils that had a distinctive red ring around them. He felt his fear peak has he tried touching the boils to find that they were crusty and carefully manoeuvred himself out of bed. The boils were only located on his arms and chest but his stomach lurched has he saw them on his face as well.

He ran from the room and hammered on Gwaine's door. He realised he must have woken the other knight as he heard a groan from inside. Percival flung the door open to find Gwaine covered in exactly the same boils.

'What happened to you?' Gwaine murmured looking confused at Percival. 'Same thing that's happened to you!' Gwaine bolted from his bed in front of the mirror. 'Not my face,' he whined. 'Anywhere but my face.'

'Seriously Gwaine, we could be very ill,' Percival roared.

The next moment Percival, who still in Gwaine's doorway, was bumped into by Elyan who had exactly the same boils. Elyan just looked scared as he looked between Percival and Gwaine. Seconds later Leon joined them looking worried and the knights were frantically looking between one and other for someone to explain what was going on.

'Where's Lancelot?' Leon asked and the knights all moved down to their fellow knight's chambers. They burst through the door to see Lancelot looking at the same boils in the mirror. Unlike the others he didn't seem panicked.

'Oh, it's the same for all of us then,' he said calmly looking at the men who had nearly knocked down his door.

'How are you so calm?' Gwaine said panicked.

'Stressing is really going to make it better, isn't it?' Lancelot said sarcastically. 'Let's get to Gaius and he can tell us if we're going to die.' Lancelot moved towards the door and ushered everyone out. He started moving down the corridor but noticed a lack of footsteps behind him. 'Are you all coming or not?'

The other knights gradually calmed and they did their best to hide from the strange looks they were getting. They arrived at Gaius' chambers but could only here the rapid movement of paper inside. Lancelot pushed the door open to see Merlin frantically searching through books and with exactly the same boils.

'Where's Gaius?' Lancelot asked after looking around for the elderly physician but he got no response. 'MERLIN!' Merlin finally noticed the knights and looked horrified to see them in the same condition as him. 'Where's Gaius?'

'I don't know!' Merlin replied in a panicked voice. 'He wasn't here when I woke up and I daren't go out...like this,' he indicated his own boil covered chest.

Merlin continued flicking as the knights fully entered the room.

'Maybe we're not the only one's then,' Elyan said quietly.

'AHA!' Everyone turned to Merlin who was on the last page of a document that Gaius had been putting together about new diseases. 'Jester's disease, Latin name Vindicta est, otherwise known as The Joker's Curse is characterised by large yellow crusty boils on the arms, chest and face with a bright red circle around the base of the boil. Cases of this disease are fatal and there is no cure.' Merlin looked up desperate and saw stricken faces around him.

'That's not possible!' Gwaine snatched the paper to read it for himself while Percival looked over his shoulder and Elyan looked around helplessly.

Leon and Lancelot were stood somewhat apart from the group and during Merlin's description both had looked confused. Lancelot accidently knocked a boil and found that it fell off and there was clear skin underneath while Leon was looking confused and was starting to smile.

'Leon?' Lancelot asked quietly while everyone around them was panicking.

'Vindicta est translates to...Revenge is sweet,' Leon looked knowingly at Lancelot.

'The Joker's Curse!' Lancelot laughed. The boil that had fallen off was still in his hand and he put it in his mouth, surprising Leon. 'It's oatmeal,' he grinned and both men started to laugh and their laughter increased in volume distracting the others from their panic.

'WHAT IS SO FUNNY?!' Gwaine demanded looking rather wild-eyed while the others settled for confused looks.

'Vindicta est translates to revenge is sweet,' Leon chuckled but the others still looked bewildered.

'The Joker's Curse,' Lancelot added.

'We've been had!' they both said together. Silence held the room for a moment before a voice broke through.

'OH. YES. YOU. HAVE,' Arthur appeared in the doorway with his arms crossed over his chest smirking in victory. A moment later Gwen and Gaius appeared either side of him with massive grins on their faces. 'That'll teach you to leave me out!' Arthur grinned as the knights relaxed, realising that they were not about to die from a terrible disease.

'And me,' Gwen quipped. 'Not me, just leave me out of it entirely,' Gaius grumbled. 'Whose idea was it?' Arthur asked but his eyes had already found Gwaine. 'Mine,' Gwaine acknowledged as all eyes were on him.

'Why doesn't that surprise me?' Arthur shook his head.

'It worked better than I thought,' Gaius remarked looking at the 'boils' covering the men's skin as he looked closely at Lancelot's 'boils'.

'Oatmeal, clever,' Lancelot remarked.

'That was my idea,' Gwen spoke up with a large smile.

'First things first,' Arthur sounded more business-like but he was clearly still amused. 'Who dug the ditch?'

'I did,' Lancelot confessed and Arthur turned his gaze to the knight. 'But Merlin helped,' Lancelot added.

'Did he now?' Arthur turned his gaze towards his servant. 'Thanks Lancelot,' Merlin growled but Lancelot shot him a smile. 'Who turned me blue?' Gwen stepped forward. All eyes turned to Elyan. 'Sorry sis,' he cowered under glare as he spoke.

'Elyan!' Gwen exclaimed and he flinched slightly.

'If it helps I got it all over my hands,' he said quietly as the knights roared with laughter. Gwen's glare softened slightly, but only slightly.

'Who was stuck in my cupboard?' Gaius asked as he sat down at his desk.

'Me,' Gwaine said as he looked apologetically at Gaius who smiled.

'The book was rather an interesting read, but Gwaine,' Gwaine turned his attention to Gaius directly, 'ever touch my draughts and remedies again and your life will not be worth living,' Gaius pointed his finger warningly at the knight.

'Understood,' Gwaine nodded.

'Percival,' the knight turned his attention to Gwen, 'Did you really get chased out of the kitchen by Cook?'

'Yes,' Percival blushed. 'She whacked on the backside with her wooden spoon!' Laughter erupted around the room as they all envisaged Percival being whacked by Cook. 'If it's any consolation, the bruise has only just started to fade,' he reflexively rubbed the sore area on the right cheek of his backside causing more laughter.

'Who switched the library?' Arthur asked.

'That was me,' Leon tried to look sorry but didn't quite manage it. 'Lancelot helped me.' Leon smiled at Lancelot who glared back.

'You have been busy Lancelot,' Arthur teased.

'That means that Merlin played the prank on my uncle,' Arthur looked to his servant who nodded. Arthur suddenly realised, 'You never forgot my clothes for the greeting, did you?'

Merlin shook his head, 'I had them ready days earlier. I saw my opportunity and I took it!' Merlin shrugged and smiled. Arthur couldn't help but smile back.

Running footfalls could be heard and Arthur turned to see a messenger coming towards him.

'My lord,' the boy bowed and Arthur took the letter. Arthur noticed the boy staring at the half-naked knights covered in boils looking back at him.

'It's alright,' he said to the boy. 'It's not contagious.' The boy sent one last look at the men and left.

Arthur read the note and turned to his knights.

'There are bandits working our eastern border and many villages have been affected. Get yourselves ready, I want to leave in an hour,' he said before leaving the room.

The knights started to scramble when Elyan noticed something, 'Gwen,' he called. 'How do we get the red off?'

'I hope Merlin still has some of his dye remover,' she smiled and left.

Merlin quickly found the powder and managed to give some to each knight. The knights quickly de-boiled themselves and were eager to get back to work. They grinned at each other as their game of Truth or Dare? had certainly been a fun one and they were less likely to leave Arthur out in future.

An hour later they rode out of the castle to do their duty as sworn Knights of Camelot.

A/N: I hope you have enjoyed my attempt at fun and humour and that at least some of the pranks have made you laugh. This was my first attempt at a Merlin Fanfic and it turned out better than I thought.

Thank you to everyone who has followed and favourited and stuck with this to the end. To those who have guest reviwed thank you and to those who have logged in thank you for your lovely comments and I hope I remembered to reply to you all individually.

I'm currently not sure what I will write next but I have delved into the knights' past here so I'm considering doing longer real-time versions rather than them explaining. So far that is just an idea.

Once again thank you and hopefully I will think of something else to write in the Merlin universe. :D
