I've been wondering, Scorched.
[ Arthur has been training since before the sun rose: it's visible in the flush across the bridge of his nose, the way his blond bangs are sticking dark to his temples, the slouch of his usually straight-backed posture. But he needs a break, a distraction from his own mind, from the questions that have been plaguing it without concrete answer. ]
Say that the Door started — temporarily — working the way that all doors should, and we could all trip merrily back to our own worlds.
[ A breath, considering whether he's really going to ask. Despite his slightly laconic tone, he knows how depressing some of the answers he'll get will be. But he still wants to know: ]
Would you stay here in Anatole?
Or would you go home?

Maybe that's because you haven't asked me nicely yet. [ Or because she's honestly not sure which she would pick. ]

[ Merlin's made it clear he'd follow him wherever, and Arthur already knows Priscilla would never leave. ]
I just enjoy hearing everyone's reasoning. And what're you on about, I asked perfectly nicely.

You asked Anatole as a whole, not me specifically. [ She's just being difficult, Arthur. Don't give in. ]

...If you'd be so kind as to answer.
[ That politeness is sliiiightly sardonic. ]
