Winter is coming; daylight is fleeting; for the students among us, end-of-semester hell is just about to rear its ugly head. What better way to combat such woes than with a super-cheerful comment ficathon?

If he’d thought about it earlier, he would have expected it to start with the sword. Not that it didn’t get there, but still. Barring that, he would have expected it to end with the sword, but it didn’t do that either. Mostly, in retrospect, what the whole debacle proved was that girls were more trouble than they were worth and Morgana was nothing but a pain, which he was fairly certain he’d learned on several occasions but somehow still never failed to surprise him

It eventually came to a quarrel - it always did. Even as Arthur was walking with her down the corridor to his chambers, smugly listing all the things he could do that she couldn’t, she just strode gracefully beside him with a serene smile on her face.
“If you’re quite finished,” she told him, “there’s something I can do better than you can, and it’s something you really couldn’t accept being inferior at.”
Because apparently she thought he was deeply concerned with how good he was at having his hair brushed. “And what’s that?”
She smiled a wily little smile up at him. “I’m a better kisser than you are.”
He tripped over his own feet and she laughed.
“You are not,” he managed, once he had re-gathered some dignity and caught up with her.
“Oh, really?”
“Yes, really“You’re willing to put it to the test, are you

Yes! And Arthur (and everyone else, too, for that matter) needs to be reminded of this from time to time.
This fic really had everything I like about those two. And the kind of ot4? Delicious. Arthur being utterly helpless and Merlin turning all red, while Morgana is totally above this. We don't see how Gwen reacts, but in my head she would play along, because it's always funny to see Arthur embarrassed.

The writers. The writers need to be reminded of this. (not that I'm bitter.)
Again, I'm so glad you liked it. I'm still really new to this fandom, so it makes me a bit nervous, and I really appreciate the encouragement. I miss the oldschool ot4 stuff, so I wanted to play with it. Thanks for giving me the excuse!
