A/N: ...Merlin and Arthur!

Just something I came up with for an English assignment.

Short- but I hope it's enjoyable either way ^v^

An Address to the Court:

I don't know why it says to 'the court' when I'm only addressing you. But that doesn't really matter. I would like to start off by saying that I am NOT writing this willingly. I have been forced by the likes of Gaius to sign up for a more applicable position in your palace- rather than being a sedated servant under your impeccable rule.

Now I know we have our moments where we have a very strong antipathy towards one another, but there is compassion deep, deep, deep, down inside the both of us. Even if you do insist that I am infinitesimal compared to your oh-so-great army of clone knights, I will tell you that I am nothing close to useless.

Perhaps these big words are too much for you to imbibe…oh well. You're always complaining about my lack of decorum so I thought I might make my vocabulary a bit more exuberant. And well…I thought the words would be too complicated for you to understand (even I don't know what I'm writing exactly) and I could easily militate my way to being a bodyguard.

Why should I be a bodyguard?

I think that's self-explanatory. I could finally get praise for my true prowess. Admit it Arthur. I deserve such a great patent. After all the times I've saved you from harm, as well as the rest of Camelot, I think you could stipulate better living, working, and paying conditions.

Besides, as I'm already a servant doing all of your precious bidding sire, when you find you're being beset by a giant boar like last night, I'll be by your side to lend a hand like the great asset I am.

I will be waiting in your chambers, cleaning your armor, and doing other pointless tasks for negligible reasons, just so you an I can reach an agreement concerning this issue.

And I heard that snort you were trying to stifle as you read this. How? You snort very loudly and you're already doing it in my head. Some revaluating thoughts you're having!

Nevermind that…just think about what I said.

Waiting a new position

A/N: The End! Of the first chapter anyway :D
