   "Hey... Merlin?"

   "Yes, Arthur?"

   "I- we," Arthur gestured towards his knights and queen. But that's not what they were tonight. Tonight, they were just friends. "We were wondering if you could show us again."

   Merlin smiled, nodding. He stared at the fire for a moment, before his eyes flashed a brilliant gold.

   A dragon the color of Merlin's eyes when he did magic rose from the flames, flying above their heads in a circle. Gwen's fingers laced through Arthur's as they watched the magical illusion in awe.

   But that wasn't the their favorite thing to look at.

   Their favorite thing was watching Merlin finally, truly be at peace.

   To be himself.
