I'm from Sweden so it will be interesting to see how this turns out. Arthur 12 points!

Arthur's being Swedish doesn't actually come up much - I have him half-english, as a compromise, because I don't like the idea of completely separating him from the British isles. Um. Hope you enjoy it!

The most confusing thing was that Arthur, when he gave the matter some thought, already knew who was representing Italy. He’d heard their song (terrible) and he’d heard a little about what their act was going to be (equally terrible), and yet this Merlin person was completely unfamiliar. Arthur thought he had familiarised himself with all his competition already. It seemed he had some work to do ( ... )

A/N: I chose a bad time to start this. >_> Exams are all finished now, though, so hopefully I will be able to get this fic done now!

Arthur waited till Merlin was definitely gone, then dashed back to his own table to find Gwen. She was just finishing up dessert when he ordered Lance out of the chair next to her and sat down.

“Gwen, I need help,” he said.

“Why am I not surprised?” She pushed her plate away. “Have you had dinner?”

“What? No. Stop changing the subject!” said Arthur.

“Why not?” she said. “You need to eat, you need the energy.”

“Because it’s weird and Azerbaijani,” Arthur said. He’d only been here a day and he was already sick of bloody plov. “Look - where the hell is San Marino and what’s it doing here?”

Gwen frowned. “Oh, yes, I heard they had an entry this year,” she said. “It’s very unusual.”

“But where is it?” hissed Arthur.

“In Italy, I think,” she said.

“In Italy?” said Arthur. “So it’s not a country ( ... )

Arthur was in his dressing room early the next morning, emailing his father from his iPhone, when Gwen arrived, with coffee and an armful of heavy book.

“Morning,” he said.

“Here’s your coffee,” she said, setting it down on the table. “Here’s San Marino’s entry, I burned it onto a CD for you.” She put a CD in a blank case down next to the coffee. “And here’s an atlas of the world. Knock yourself out.”

“I will,” said Arthur.

He waited till she’d gone back outside, then spent a few frantic minutes leafing through the gazetteer (huh, gazatteer, that wasn’t a word he used very often), then marched triumphantly through to his dancers’ dressing room. It was a meagre selection - only Lance, Gwaine and Percival, Leon and Elyan were missing - but it would do.

“I found it!” he announced.

“What, San Marino?” said Gwen.

“No, the lost city of Atlantis - of course San Marino!” He held up the map. “It’s fucking tiny! It’s not even a proper country, it’s just a dot ( ... )

A little over two minutes later, and took his head in his hands and groaned. Oh, god, he was fucked. He couldn’t possibly be fucked. He was Arthur Pendragon. He was everyone’s favorite to win. He was loved by every teenage and pre-teen girl in Scandanavia (and hell, probably a good number of the boys as well).

The CD player whirred to a halt. Arthut hit the play button, scarcely able to believe it, and Merlin’s voice filled the dressing room. His voice. Arthur didn’t even understand what he was singing about, but hell if he wasn’t half in love with that voice already ( ... )

A/N: No energy for writing today, so just a short part.

“We need a battle plan,” he said the moment he was in the dressing room. His dancers all looked various degrees of reluctant, irritated and oh god, it’s too early for this, shut the fuck up.

“We’re supposed to be starting rehearsals in about a hour,” said Gwen. “Can this not wait, Arthur?”

“No! Didn’t you listen to his song?” said Arthur. “I don’t even know what he’s doing here, he’s too good for this shit - and we need to figure out a way to beat him ( ... )

Arthur spent the next couple of days doing everything he could to avoid Merlin, because he really didn’t need any more stress. Rehearsals were not going well. He’d kept trying to lose the CD with Merlin’s song on it, but somehow he ended up uploading it to his iPhone instead and listening to it at least once a day, and then, after some totally casual googling, he discovered that Merlin had a YouTube account, with a cheerful background and videos of silly animals in his favorites, and recording after recording of him singing in Italian. He sat up one night till the wee hours to watch them all, and then he was constantly distracted and he kept missing his cues. Once he even tripped and fell on the stage, which might actually be the stupidest thing he’d even done. Thankfully only in front of the crew and his only dancers.

They had their first proper dress rehearsal on Sunday evening, three days before the semi-final, and for some reason Arthur simply could not understand, Merlin was there. He’d tagged along, because apparently Gwaine ( ... )
