[With a clearing of his throat, Merlin addresses the journal system.]

Perhaps...I am not really cut out to be a knight. Although, it'd be nice to get some of the recognition. A knight is never stuck serving breakfast.

[There's a quiet, longing look as Merlin looks "off screen" towards Arthur's abandoned sword. Knights, after all, had so much more of an acceptable heroism.]

Miss Fina, could I request an audience with you? It's about--err--what we talked about, last time. I could use some help.

[Merlin is shown drawing a palm across his face. He grumbles.] Arthur's still not back.

That someone else is the prince. His opinion means a lot, back home. No matter what I think.

[ anakin snorts. royalty. ...which is a bit hypocritical of him, being that he's married to a dowager queen and is de facto a prince consort himself-- but this is thankfully a fact he will never become aware of. ]

And here's not home, is it?

Being away from Camelot is no excuse for him to abandon the precepts he follows.

[Saving people is good, after all. The magic thing could change, though.]

[ ani hesitates. being away is no excuse to abandon... he could understand that well. as rebellious of a knight as he was, he still held on to the ideals and rules of the order with an iron grip and refused to speak of things (re: his marriage) here that he wouldn't back home. ]

As a knight myself, but presumably not the type you are familiar with, I know that concept well.

Y-you're a knight? From which kingdom?

Kingdom? Uh, no. Not like that. I'm a Knight of the Jedi Order. We're guardians of the Republic, keepers of the peace.

So, you don't serve a king? [Well. That's odd.]

No. The Republic is a democracy, not a monarchy. The Supreme Chancellor does not have jurisdiction over the Order. He can make requests, but we are not required to follow them through. What we do is for the good of the whole of the Republic.

And so, who commands you if not a king?

The collective voice of the Jedi Council. Grandmaster Yoda, if you need a singular figure.

I could say the same to you.

Name's Anakin Skywalker, by the way.

I'm Merlin. And, if you are a knight, Arthur will probably want to speak to you--[pause]--once he returns.

Not like I'm going anywhere. Besides, if it gives me something to do, I'm game.

Another knight--someone to train with--might help distract him from captivity. He's been in a strop since we arrived. Understandable, I guess.

It would be a mutual distraction.

Then, Anakin? I'll pass your name on to the prince when he is returned.
