[That 'nothing really for entertainment' bit, perhaps, might change soon enough, even if half of that entertainment was listening to Merlin laugh his ass off at Romani's reliance on MagiāMari and the other half was Merlin taking him along during his dream-people-watching habits. Basically, magic reality TV without the contrived drama.
Also much thanks, Yuuko. Merlin knew better than to ask for certain pieces of information because of the toll involved, although he'd ask if he should expect other surprise guests from her side of the world now that Watanuki was in Avalon.
And you bet he'd try Watanuki's cooking once he smelled it. Believe it or not, the terrible taste of Gawain's mashed potatoes still scarred him a thousand years later, and this was a delightful upgrade.
The ingredients, incidentally, would appear in Watanuki's kitchen as soon as Merlin got them.
As for the room Merlin himself was in - it was in a circular study with a large, open window. The walls were lined with tomes: the vellum and bindings were perfectly preserved, although the language they were written in would make the dates of their creation noticeable. There was no desk, but a reclining sofa was next to the window. When the door opened to reveal Watanuki, Merlin would be sitting upright, his staff cradled in the crook of his arm.]

How good of a cook are you?
