A/N: Hey, Homefries! Good day, today was. I discovered I love step aerobics, and the new season of Criminal Minds started! *victory dance* It was awesome, and hopefully that and the next one will be enough to tide me over until Merlin starts again. I hope you enjoy this! Thanks so much for the reviews!

6. Truth
There were days when Arthur didn't look forward to being King. For example, that day when a random peasant accused Merlin, of all people, of practicing magic.
"Look," Arthur said, gritting his teeth, "you can't just demand I execute someone without proof. It's against the law."
"But, but, but, he turned me into a newt!" Arthur stared.
"A newt?"
"What's so funny?" Merlin asked later that afternoon, noticing Arthur's blatant amusement at something.
Amidst the prince's uncharacteristic giggles, he managed to sputter, "Some guy claimed you turned him into a newt."
"A newt?"
"Yeah! I mean, you! Ridiculous, right?"
"Yeah…"
Unspoken last line there being 'He must've got better.' lol Thanks so much for reading!
Cheers!
