Merlin was a bit of a stump. Despite the fact he couldn’t tell you about his stupid curse, he desperately needed to get you to kiss him. His usual charms didn’t exactly work as well as a short green dwarf. But it wasn’t just that, you were incredibly annoying. You were recklessly messing around, even though he was trying to be civil and flirt.

You were beautiful, sure. But it was going to be difficult for you to kiss him when it seemed you were taking nothing seriously.
