[Back dated to the Pet Sitting Virus] ♔ | 11 The King has Talons [Video]
[Well, here's something the community doesn't see every day. The King of Camelot on screen.
There's another thing the community doesn't see every day.
The King has a bird on his head.
Not just any bird, but an falcon.]
"Duck people...if you can hear me and I hope you can
...
Why is this bird on my head?"
[For the curious and amused this type of falcon is called a Merlin]

"Not one of those again, the last one was bad enough. I can't get this-" [he points to the bird.] "To leave and I'm supposed to run a council in a few minutes! What, exactly, am I meant to do?"

"That's a brilliant idea!"
[Arthur disappears off screen for a moment, and what follows is the sound of flapping wings, some very annoyed screeching and a shout from Arthur.
He reappears in the frame, hair extremely messed up and scratches on his face.]
"That...didn't work."
no subject
Perhaps bringing him to a dimly lit area? It might think it is night and go to sleep.
no subject
Quite a few minutes pass and finally he peeks through them and whispers.]
"I think it's asleep...but it's still on my head."

"Right...now what? My servant'll be here any minute and if he sees me like this, he'll never let me live it down."
no subject
Ah...you could make up some kind of story?

[The falcon decides to start styling poor Arthur’s hair, it descends into a mess quite quickly.]

"Nicer? Nicer how? Should I feed it or something?"
no subject
no subject
Only problem, Arthur does not keep a supply of birdfeed at the ready in case of a falcon landing on his head and refusing to leave.
On the other hand, there has been a mouse problem and God knows Merlin (the servant) probably hasn't solved it.]
"Falcons eat mice, right?"
[It pays to be sure.]
no subject
Yeah. They should.
no subject
Now, to find a mouse. There'll be the sound of cupboards opening and the rattling of various things on the wall as Arthur hunts, but he reappears on screen with a frown on his face.]
"There’s none here...I can't believe it...Merlin actually got rid of them!"
no subject
[She's quiet, then smiles slightly.]
Having a problem with them, were you?
no subject
[Arthur is really very close to just giving up.]

"Well, I'm happy everyone here finds this so entertaining. It's not as if I have important work to do, I'm just King of Camelot, I'm sure they don't need me."
