Because I have known you for all of two days, and I can tell from the ease at which they tumble out of your mouth that you use flirting to get what you want from people.
You are my master. You don't have to con your way into getting what you want from me. I will follow your commands even without the use of a command seal. All I ask in return is that you treat me like your servant and ally, rather than some obstacle to overcome.
[He hadn't meant to be harsh, but sometimes a firm reminder of the situation was needed.
It wasn't that Bedivere disliked the flirting, necessarily. It was that he didn't believe it to be genuine. And for someone like Bedivere, who took matters of the heart seriously, he didn't want to get used to flirting that would mean nothing in the end.]
