CAMELOT - DAY** *The sun begins to dip below the horizon, casting a golden hue over the kingdom. King Arthur, clad in his royal attire, looks decisively tired and stressed. He glances at Merlin, who is organizing some scrolls.* **ARTHUR:** *(Exasperated)* Merlin, enough with those scrolls. I declare it is time for some royal relaxation! *Merlin rolls his eyes, used to Arthur's sudden whims.* **MERLIN:** And what form will this "royal relaxation" take, sire? Another round of jousting with your knights, perhaps? **ARTHUR:** *(Grinning mischievously)* No, Merlin. Something... far more serene. To the pond! But you're coming with me. A king should never relax alone. *Merlin sighs heavily but complies. They walk toward the castle's outskirts, where a serene pond lies hidden, surrounded by woods.* --- **EXT. POND - DAY** *They arrive at the pond. Arthur gazes at the water, then back at Merlin with a grin that spells trouble.* **ARTHUR:** Ah, perfect! Help me out of my kingly attire, Merlin. It's time to test these waters. *Merlin awkwardly assists, a pile of royal clothes forming at his feet. Arthur, now in the buff save for a modesty-preserving piece of medieval linen, turns and dashes toward the water, showcasing a physique honed by swordplay and jousting.* **MERLIN:** *(Muttering under his breath)* Could give the knights a run for their money in more than just jousting, it seems... *Arthur dives in gracefully, the sunlight catching on his muscular form as he breaks the surface. He lets out a contented sigh, floating on his back. Suddenly, a small bubble escapes from Arthur, disturbing the water's tranquility.* **ARTHUR:** Ah... the true essence of royal relaxation! *Merlin, who's been hesitantly watching from the bank, can't help but let out a snicker as a few unfortunate fish float to the surface.* **ARTHUR:** *(Noticing the fish)* Merlin, look! The pond has bestowed gifts upon us. Fetch them; they'll make a fine dinner. *Merlin, trying to hide his amusement, rolls up his sleeves.* **MERLIN:** Only you, sire, could turn relaxation into a way to catch dinner. Let's hope your... 'fishing technique' doesn't become popular. *Arthur laughs heartily, causing a few more ripples across the pond.* **ARTHUR:** *(Climbing out of the pond)* It's a skill, Merlin. One that requires both precision and relaxation. Now, help your king dry off. We've got fish to cook. *Merlin throws Arthur a cloth, still chuckling at the day's unexpected turn of events.* --- *As the evening sun sets, the scene fades with the sound of laughter echoing from the pond, a reminder of the lighter moments that can be found even in the midst of royal duties.* --- The scene blends humor with the camaraderie that defines Arthur and Merlin's relationship, offering a moment of levity amidst their legendary adventures.
