Definition of a Merlin Drabble

by Lya200

A drabble: a short work of fiction of around one hundred words in length. A Merlin drabble: pure chaos. How many adventures can occur in 100 words? Drabble 305: Arthur faces a guilty conscience as he takes an innocent life to keep the bandits from hurting his friend.

22. Rain, Rain, Go Away

So apparently it took a lot less time than I thought for me to complete my assignment. As a result, that gives me an hour to post this.

Disclaimer: *turns around and scoffs at the audience*

Prompt: From lexi1220: This is so cliche but rain?

Rating: K+

Genre: Friendship/Hurt/Comfort

Characters: Merlin, Arthur

Time Frame: Anytime, anywhere

Summary: It's all Arthur's fault. Okay, not really.

Let's Go On An Adventure

There must have been a radar or something; it seemed like trouble could find them anywhere.

Today's episode: rain.

The water beat down on their heads, soaking the two boys within seconds.

Merlin blamed Arthur for dragging him on this stupid trip. They holed up inside of a cave to stay dry.

"'S your fauld," Merlin chattered.

"Shud'up, Merlin." Arthur started shivering. Then he smiled wickedly. "Get closer to me."

"Wh-why?"

"We can use our combined body heat to stay warm."

Arthur was insane, but Merlin was too cold to argue. They snuggled...as friends of course.

---

From here, the two boys both agree to never speak of this again.

So what did you guys think? Great? Terrible? Terrible but great?

At least I decided NOT to make them sick... half-tempted to add that, but I barely managed to fit this in 100 words.

Guest: Thank you!

NC: Thanks! I tried with this chapter to avoid spoiling the entire thing in the beginning. I still kept the summary and the prompt at the beginning, but I tried not to ramble. Does that work?

Next, in a stunning move, we will be returning to the AU world of "Burning," where I have three more written. Hopefully, after that, you guys will be satisfied...maybe...

Help me... I've grown even more obsessed.
