   Summary

   Gwaine drags Merlin out with Arthur and all of the knights to a strip club (with a promise of shots, of course). Arthur can't seem to understand why he feels weird about seeing a girl give Merlin a lapdance when Merlin couldn't look any less interested in it if he tried. So, in typical Arthur fashion, he lays down a challenge. Merlin, of course, takes him up on it. But, will Arthur be able to deal with the feelings that arise after? Or, will he stay emotionally constipated? Read on to find out.
