Summary
There was a time, not so long ago, when Arthur would have said that Merlin is… maybe not weak per se, but certainly not strong. He's an untrained peasant, after all, unused to the rigorous training of the sword and shield, the weight of chainmail and plated armour, the endurance built by sustained battle. He doesn’t have the obvious bulk of a knight, nor the keen reflexes lacing his muscles. He’s… well, yes, Arthur supposes he would have thought Merlin weak.
On his honour, he will never call Merlin weak after tonight.

Summary
They’ve been treading so very carefully lately, tension in every interaction, striving desperately for normalcy. Both of them are clearly afraid to rock the boat and ruin whatever progress they’ve made, but the longer Arthur observes Merlin’s sojourns to the woods for some unknown purpose (something worth lying about, again), the more difficult it becomes to hold his tongue.

Summary
Merlin is preoccupied with wiping his eyes, so he doesn’t notice Arthur right away, but Gwen does. She sees how the king’s face freezes at the sight of Merlin’s red-rimmed eyes and damp cheeks, watches as the penny drops and Arthur’s anger abandons him, leaving a distinct look of queasiness in its wake.

Summary
E is for Epidural Hematoma
***
“Carter’s here.”
Mark hums again, still distracted by the rhythmic motion of thread through flesh. “He's a little early. His shift doesn't start ‘til eight.”
In his peripheral vision, he sees the nurse shift uncomfortably on her feet. “No, I mean- he isn't here to work. Apparently he fell down the stairs? He's with his father.”
OR
An alternate version of 'the family you'll never be in, and you never get out'.

Summary
Frank isn’t having a good day. To be fair, he hasn’t had a good day ever since he came back to the Pitt. It isn’t much of a surprise, though. He knew coming back wouldn’t be all sunshine and roses—he just thought things would be different.
Sometimes—when it’s late at night and his back won’t let him sleep—he wonders why he wanted to come back so badly. He knows why, of course—hell, everybody knows why he came back to the Pitt. In the end, it always comes back to Michael Robinavitch.
