“You grew up,” Arthur said, half-laughing. He made a show of matching Merlin to his photo, squinting like it was the hardest task in the world. “I almost didn’t recognise you.”
“It’s only been a year, you prat,” Merlin said, taking Arthur’s luggage then discarding it in favour of a massive hug. “I’m not that different.”
“I suppose your ears are the same.” He tweaked one of them. “Still enormous.”
“And your manners are still atrocious.”
They grinned at one another.
“It’s good to have you back,” Merlin said, shyly.
Arthur took a deep breath. “It’s good to be home.”
