Merlin was dressed to the nines, his outfit carefully chosen, a relatively new one he had not yet worn around Phryne. Oh, he had shown it to her when he had brought it, but not worn it for her yet, and as he dressed, grinning, he set himself and nodded to his image in the mirror, who saluted him in return.
Merlin turned and headed for the room where Phryne was preparing, his suit a rather gorgeous and dark blue with hints of green through it, shoes in a very dark black, and a white shirt with blue and green embroidery along the seams.
He held a simple dragon-headed walking stick, carved by him, the head made by a local artisan to his order as he walked to her door and knocked.
