[The sound of a throat-clearing cough.]

Can anyone tell me about a blue-haired girl who calls herself a soldier?

[But earlier this day--before he makes the voice post--Merlin is out picking up fresh ingredients for Arthur's evening meal. He is in the shop, picking through some vegetables. He looks...confused.]

That may be. But Camelot isn't here. He's nothing.

He's...[a scribble, and then nothing else.]

He may not be a prince here, but he isn't nothing either.

But you make it sound like this energy is so important. If people like him are the source, I don't think it's possible that they could mean nothing to you. They must be everything.

Humans are fuel. But there are always more. They're numerous on this planet.

[As per Arthur's commandrequest, Merlin stops answering the blue-haired soldier.]

[Well, Merlin, this handwriting is probably familiar.]

Leave it, Merlin.

It's not worth arguing over. Least of all with her.

You're going to allow her to talk about you like that? [He sounds...surprised.]

[He'll say this loud enough that Merlin can hopefully hear, because he doesn't want her overhearing, really.]

She's not entirely wrong.

[Stationed in the lounge-area, he's not too far away to hear. Unmoving so that he can avoid Arthur's eyes, he says:]

Look, I know I said those things during the storm about there being no princes here--but I bet I was wrong. I usually am. Which means that she is wrong, as well.

Don't flatter yourself, Merlin.

No, it's nothing to do with your outburst. However, it certainly is true that we are quite a ways from Camelot.

Still, she wasn't right.

[He glances at Merlin, a bit surprised.]

Is there any reason you're so bothered by her words?

[The big fat prophecy stating you're going to be the awesomest king ever, Arthur? =/]

She can't be right; after all, she doesn't know you.

[This answer means that Merlin also cannot bring himself to say you're more than just a prince even though mostly you're a royal ass.]

No, she doesn't.

You're not actually taking her seriously, are you--Arthur?

[He keeps looking out.]

Tell me, Merlin: what is the duty of the royal family? I'm sure that even someone like you would know that much.

[He looks...unsure. What's the right answer? More importantly, what's the wrong answer. He wants to avoid that one.]

Well--err--the royal family? [Sigh.] I suppose it's to be royal and to keep an eye on the kingdom and...[oh wait what was it that Arthur told him that one time?] ruling by serving! [Pause] Right?

[You at least have one subject, sire~]

We'll just have to find a way back.
