It's a really good idea!! I loved it!! :D

But do you think Arthur is really that sort of person? Wouldn't he have shown at least the slightest suspicion towards Merlin? Considering the countless number of times Merlin has been accused of sorcery, he should have known by now, but most probably doesn't. He is mostly instantaneous in making decisions. And most of them are made 'in the best interest of Camelot'. So, I don't think he'd keep quiet harboring a sorcerer under his very nose. He would've done something by now, if he knew. And we know that his attitude towards sorcery is still pretty rigid and dark. There's still a bit of Uther in him, although thankfully, he doesn't take after him completely.
