Summary
"I'm pretty sure it's another initiation attempt. He tried to convince me to participate in....some sort of 'prank' against the queen?" Mordred shrugged, still confused by the conversation. "I'm just concerned. If someone fell for that, they could seriously upset Morgana!"
Leon starred at him blankly for a moment. A long, slightly awkward moment. He slowly tilted his head. Mordred felt a shiver run down his back.
"If only things were so easy." Leon finally sighed, "If only the king could be so lucky."

Summary
"I know what you’re trying to do. You know that if I go to Morgana then she’ll know who Emrys is. But you can’t take that, can you? So you’re trying to lure me back to Camelot so that your identity is safe. So that your king is safe.” Mordred snarled.
“This is not about Morgana or Arthur. I pushed you away. I made decisions that I’m not particularly proud of.”
Mordred shook his head. “You hated me. Don’t think I didn’t see it. You nearly tried to kill me as a child and I still looked up to you. I’m done with that. I always thought that Emrys would be our savior but you’re nothing but a failure.”
