“MERLIN!”
Merlin had heard his first name yelled in all-caps by a whole lot of people, from his mom in her parrot form to an auctioneer announcing that he’d won an antique cuckoo clock with a pop-out pterodactyl instead of a cuckoo to a lion shifter having a snit fit (but not by his drill sergeant, who had yelled “MERRICK!” instead.) But no one could yell “MERLIN!” quite like his now-actually-a-teammate, Carter Howe.
What about by me? demanded his inner raptor. I yell in all-caps. MERLIN, MERLIN, MERLIN, MERLIN—
