Summary: Merlin takes what Arthur says too literally.
Warnings: None, yet. YET.
Merlin had been odd all day. This morning, when he brought Arthur his breakfast, he sat in the chair opposite him. When Arthur picked up his fork, Merlin picked up his. When Arthur ate his eggs, Merlin ate his eggs.
After practice, the Knights were tired, but Arthur wasn't, so he cajoled Merlin into some 'friendly' practice.
Every time Arthur struck, Merlin struck. When Arthur blocked, Merlin blocked.
"What are you doing, Merlin?"
"Well, the other day, after I dropped your armor, you called me clumsy, and said I should be more like you."
"Merlin, you really are an idiot."
