Author's Note: I wrote this as a request for TheNightFury, who wanted something with Aithusa. I am really uncertain of this drabble, and I really hope it turned out alright. It is my first time even attempting Kilgarrah, so I hope the characterization is right. Also, I have never even written something with a baby animal in it before, let alone a baby dragon, so I hope this is ok. TheNightFury is an awesome writer and a good reviewer, so I genuinely hope she likes this one, and that it's what she had in mind with her request. I hope everyone else likes it as well. Anyway, in this, Aithusa is about the size of a medium-sized dog and is greeting Merlin for the first time since he's hatched. Please review to tell me how I did! Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I obviously do not own Merlin, even though I would like to.
Chapter 46: A Reunion
In the three-month-old dragon's eagerness to greet him, Aithusa plowed into Merlin, knocking him onto the ground. He then started nuzzling into the young man's shirt, thrilled to see another of his kin.
Merlin was left to struggle out from under his weight, giving Aithusa a hug afterwards.
Kilgarrah smiled. "I apologize young warlock. It appears that Aithusa has not yet learned control. I have found that he seems to have inherited impulsiveness from his Dragonlord."
Merlin knew there was an insult in there somewhere, but he was too happy playing with his young friend to care all that much.
