[ Why would you ever think that!! How rude Bedivere.
Merlin’s first response is a laugh, the sort of gentle kind that you interpret wildly differently depending on how long you’ve known him. For someone unacquainted, it’s pleasant, charming, and light. But when you know the wizard better, well... You also know he’s not really any of those things. It’s amusement more than any genuine humor. ]
Well— [ He starts, but then leans down to lift one of those floating flowers from the back of Bedivere’s hair. It’ll dissipate in its own eventually, sure, but. Not for a while. ]
I had a thought, actually! [ hm bad ] Have you ever had Avalon’s apples? I was thinking it might be a good idea to collect a bushel or two.
[ It sounds suspiciously benign as well as... whimsical, even for Merlin. His whimsy tended to be more in the vein of women over apples, so it’s not hard to guess that he has some other purpose in wanting them.
Though it’s at least (?) not for his own sake. There’s someone that needs these apples that look like precious metals, since the mana they contain is enough to revitalize an amateur magus instantly.
Plus, it’s almost summer, so the plight of a certain master to see cute girls in swimsuits is one he can sympathize with. ]
