HOLY CRAP A WILD MORGANA

[stubbornprat]

They'd been searching for months. Months. So of course, of course the day after Arthur had argued with his father over the logic of still searching, he stumbled over her. Almost literally.

"I wasn't in the room!" He hadn't been. He'd been off fighting the undead, Morgana. It wasn't his choice idea of activities when it meant leaving you, Merlin and his father to an uncertain fate and he had barely been able to stand as it were.

Morgana wouldn't know either, not at the very end. She can only go by what Morgause has told her, and there's this implication that everyone knew.

"No --" She's going to argue but he had left the room to defend his father.

That's enough to bring back the rage. "You had to save your father. Why did you reject being king!"

She'd thought that was to happen, yet it didn't. Remove Uther, and replace with Arthur, but no, nothing changed.

"I had to save all of you, Morgana. Not just him."

He frowned. "I rejected nothing. Had father died..." Arthur would have done what he must. Not that he liked the prospect of it. He would have done what was best for Camelot. It wasn't even a question.

"We all had been in danger. What would you have had me do?"

[skepticseer]

"You do not know anything that happened, do you?" As always, Arthur's left in the dark of everything, though it's not just Uther, but also Arthur's dog who is hiding truths.

"I came just in time to see you taken, Morgana." It's as close to admitting to his cluelessness as he ever gets. Arthur hates, hates, hates that people hide things from him. He isn't as stupid as everyone thinks he is, but he'd be better if his people TOLD HIM things. "All I know is you've been missing for over a month only to have you show up almost at our gates."

[skepticseer]

"Where?" Morgana hadn't realized she was so close. How odd. Why wouldn't Morgause tell her?

"I was not taken! I was saved!"
