Rose loved it. Walking through the hustle and bustle of Camelot's streets the blonde couldn't help but smile widely. Her mouth was beginning to ache with it.

People were going about their daily lives, the snapshot the foreign trio were receiving about as normal as it could get. There were market stools, animals, wells; everything Rose had expected and more.

Spinning around in joy, her arms wide out, Rose finally realised that their group was getting quite a bit of attention. The prince had long since passed through and was far less interesting to the natives then the trio of strangers dressed in odd garb. Suddenly self-conscious Rose rushed to catch up with her companions who had followed Merlin up the path.

"Do you think we could get some clothes?" Rose asked the Doctor as she caught up with them, pulling down the hem of her top at the stares from passers-by.

Frowning the Doctor look concerned about her but before he could reply Merlin broke in.

"I'm sure Gwen has a dress you can borrow."

"Oh, I don't want to impose." Rose started, looking embarrassed.

"Don't worry about it, she won't mind. Gwen's like that."

"What am I like?" a new voice entered the conversation and the group turned to face them.

The woman who had spoken was beautiful, even though the dirt and grubby clothing tried to hide it. She wasn't tall but far from short, and while her clothing looked less than perfect she wasn't malnourished, her figure happily filling out the dress she wore. Her skin was a dark olive tone that made her skin look less dirty and her dark brown hair was tied back from her face.

"What have you been saying about me Merlin?"

"Only good things." The young warlock was quick to reply. "Gwen, I'd like you to meet the Doctor, Jack and Rose. They're from out of town."

"Nice to meet you." Gwen replied.

"Hi." Rose muttered, once again amazed at seeing someone she had only read about before.

"Hello." Jack said with his usual smile.

"Jack." The Doctor reprimanded.

"I was only saying hello." Jack replied unrepentant.

Shaking his head the Doctor turned back to face the newcomer.

"Pleasure to meet you, Gwen was it?"

"Yes that's me." Turning to face her friend Gwen carried on from before. "What were you talking about?"
"Oh, Rose was just wondering if she could borrow one of your dresses. She's not really dressed for Camelot."

Looking Rose up and down, the gesture one of curiosity not disdain, Gwen replied.

"No, not quite."

"Don't worry if you don't I'll just-"

"I'm sure I have something," Gwen interrupted with a kind smile. "Come with me."

With one last look at the Doctor and Jack Rose took off with Gwen, quite looking forward to the idea of some period clothing.

"The future Queen," Jack declared as he watched the pair walk off only to realise what he had said.

The Doctor pointed his finger at his male companion.

"You're as bad as Rose."

"But much better looking," Jack quickly retorted.

Merlin was just as bewildered as before, despite the explanations, and didn't know what to make of the men that followed him into the castle.

Their relationship was like his and Arthur's in many ways, but if he wasn't mistaken his new friends went beyond that to flirting. Though he knew that should make him uncomfortable, it strangely didn't. Merlin found the pair amusing and with Rose thrown into the mix he couldn't wait to find out what would happen next.
