"Well, you still got me."
That idiot manservant says this line with a beaming smile after an event gone wrong.
Arthur scoffs at the sappy statement. Really, what good is Merlin to him? That's the best consolation he's got? And if Arthur feels certain lightness in his heart whenever he hears that, he tells himself that it was the adrenaline.
However, years later, after defeating Mordred's army, he realized a tad bit too late that, yes, it was the best comfort of all.
Because he had lost Merlin.
And what he wouldn't give just to hear those five words again.

What are 'Prompts'? In the fanfiction "Fractions.", (go read it and die from the awesomeness!) it was always mentioned. Just a bit curious about it.
Again, constructive criticisms or any suggestions are appreciated!
