arthur actually DID SAY that. and seriously: merlin, least subtle sorceror ever. arthur, morgana, and gwen have to be laughing at him behind his back while gaius panics and uther broods.
"i don't think i really ever understood what you are," morgana says.
susan laughs, a little bitter. "we're human, sons of adam and daughters of eve," she says. "from here, originally, a long time ago. well," she adds, mouth quirking a little, still bitter, "not so long."
morgana is silent, waiting. susan stumbles on, "he died in 1949, they all did -- ed and lu too, you remember -- and i...didn't. well, i wasn't there. and last year someone brought him back, and he's been with me ever since, and he's fine, he is, but i'm not an expert and no one at the bureau is -- he's working for them, with me, now -- and -- and i was just wondering," she finishes.
morgana puts the ice cream down on the end-table. "maybe i should see him," she says, testing, and susan nods.
