Thank you to: vix_spes and shadowofrazia for betaing for me with extremely short notice. <33
Disclaimer: I don't own Merlin and make no money off this.
Summary: When Morgana finds Merlin under threat from Uther in the kitchen one beautiful morning, she decides to help out. For the prompt: "The awkward morning after in the Pendragon household where Morgana has to pretend it was her room Merlin spent the night in, not Arthur's."

Author's notes: "BMBS"/"MBBS" is the abbreviation for "Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery", as far as I understand it. If it's wrong, please let me know! (The UK educational system confuses me greatly, not going to lie.) As Morgana knows stuff, I wanted her to talk about it easily and not having to explain it. I really hope this doesn't ruin the reading experience for anyone. :)
