Yeah...

[He's thinking exactly what Lancelot is. If only Uther had been kinder, Camelot (and Arthur) would not have so many enemies to contend with.]

Anyway, you helped, and now you're a knight. [Merlin beams.] Arthur's from the same time I am, so he'll probably want to knight you while you're here, too.

[He blinks at that, stunned for a moment. The idea hasn't occurred to him.]

But I've done nothing to earn it yet.

[Forgive Merlin, he's just going to roll his eyes at you for a second.]

Are we forgetting the part where you already earned your knighthood but had it unfairly stripped away? You've earned it already, Lancelot. Even Arthur said so.

[He shakes his head]

That was by deceit, and Arthur thinks I earned it thanks to your talents.

No, I didn't mean the griffin.

[Are you being purposely obtuse, my friend?]

You earned your knighthood before all that, remember? When Arthur tested you!

Yes, but I came by that test under false pretense.

[That makes it invalid, see.]

Stop being so...honourable. [Even though that's what makes you so endearing.]

Listen, that fake coat of arms I made for you just helped you get your foot in. The rest of it was all you. Your own skills.

I know Arthur, and he wouldn't just bestow knighthood on someone he thinks unworthy.

[Have a short bit of laughter there.] I'm afraid in that I cannot indulge you.

[But he nods]

No, that is true. Arthur wouldn't do that.

You see? Even if you can't see your own worthiness, for some reason, other people like Arthur can.

You're one of Arthur's knights, Lancelot, whether you like it or not. I bet Gwen and Morgana would agree, so it's four against one.

Like it? Merlin, it's all I ever wanted in my life.

[Well that and one of those aforementioned ladies, but what is it he said? Some things cannot be.]

Right, so you should stop arguing with us. Just accept it when Arthur offers, all right?

[Oh, Lancelot. What are they going to do with you?]

[Keep him in your pocket and use him for a plush?]

If he offers...[After understanding that he didn't actually do anything since he is not from their time] I will.

[He won't be able to actually bear saying no.]

[This sounds like a good idea. Maybe Merlin will go looking for some shrinking spells right about now.]

Good. You deserve it, my friend.

[He leans against Lancelot's side, smiling.] You can stop wandering on your own. You're one of ours now.

[Go Merlin! Go go go!]

[He smiles, leaning back against him in a friendly shove.]

That sounds -- great.

[In all honesty he's tired of wandering on his own.]

[Merlin gives Lancelot's communications bracelet a playful tweak and flops ungracefully back against the sofa with a laugh.]

Welcome to Asgard, Lancelot.
