Let's Go On An Adventure
Their malicious slobber was hot and sticky on his skin.
Merlin cried out, "GET'EM OFF! GET'EM OFF OF ME!"
Then, as though someone mighty had heard his pleas, several pairs of strong hands pulled the mutts off of him. Merlin whimpered and made to touch his face, half-expecting his hand to come back bloody.
It was covered in saliva.
"Down, boys," Merlin heard Arthur command, but he did not see them obey, for Percival was now holding him in a brotherly embrace.
"It's all right Merlin, they were never going to hurt you," he assured softly.
Protective!Percival is adorable.
Remember, these dogs are actually harmless. Arthur chose to bring along his least threatening dogs, including the one Merlin gave him once shortly after he won a tournament. They are really playful pups, but if you have a phobia, you don't think straight, correct?
