Gaius is a good man – the old guy took me in and treats me like a son – but sometimes he really tries my patience.
He's always lecturing me. "Don't use your magic, Merlin!" Or "Don't let anyone know your secret, Merlin, it will get you killed!"
Until a stupid great griffin decides to attack Camelot, that is. Then it's all "You'll have to kill it, Merlin," and "Use your magic, Merlin." Honestly, what he expects me to do, I really don't know. Who does he think I am? The most powerful sorcerer in the world?
Now that would be ridiculous.
