They’re getting ready for bed.
Morgana: What are you doing?
Arthur:This is a key that I’m putting in a locked drawer, which leads to alocked room, out of the hundreds of rooms in the palace, that containsyour Christmas present. Don’t even bother trying, you’re not going tofind it this time! You will open your present the morning of and bepleasantly surprised just like the rest of the kingdom!
He gets into bed.
Morgana: I find your complete and utter naiveté charming, my love.
Arthur: I mean it! Stay away, Morgana!
She giggled. They went through this every year.

Arthur: You had another nightmare last night. Just like you have every night for near a month now.
Morgana: I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to wake you.
Arthur: But that’s just it! You try not to wake me. You hide it. Why would you do that? Why won’t you tell me what it is you see?
Morgana: It’s nothing to be concerned over. I didn’t want to bother you.
Arthur:Since when has that ever given you even a moment’s pause!? Half thetime I think you make it your life’s mission to do exactly the opposite!
Morgana tries to hold back her tears and it worries him all the more that she’s so affected by this.
Arthur: I’m your husband, does that not mean I have the right to know what it is that has you so terrified?
Morgana: *her voice wavering* Arthur… I will tell you, I promise, but not now. I need time to… I just need time. Please?
He knew he couldn’t press her any more on this.
Arthur: Alright. Time. *sigh* I’ll give you five minutes.
Morgana’sglare was so vicious, he nearly burst out laughing. There was asobering silence after that as neither knew what to say. Morganacouldn’t bring herself to look him in the eye and it tore at his heart.
Arthur: Just… know I’m here.
