[He doesn't notice the username at first, he just sees what appears to be a friendly face on the screen. So many questions! And about magic too. Magic and then technology - boy, does Dave have thoughts about that.
He's already turning on the feed on his side, ready to welcome the new guy, but then the name is spoken and. Well. Sorry for the sudden noises and black screen that happens to be the pavement. Certain someone is panicking over here and drops the device.
It can't be, can it? Okay, technically it can. But a manservant to a prince? That doesn't sound right. Maybe it's just a coincidence. Maybe someone had a magical kid and decided to name him after the most famous sorcerer.
...except Dave's life is horrible to him most of the time, so it's probably not a coincidence. His master taught him not to even believe in them. He needs a bit of time to deal with... oh ok, the feed is still on when he picks up the device. Just his luck. It would be weird(er) to suddenly turn it off, so Dave decides to go for it but with caution, testing the waters.]
Oh, hey. Welcome, ah-- Merlin. [Dave is nervous and it shows, saying the name as if it was made of crystal.] I'm very familiar with technology and--okay, magic too, so if you need anything...
[It looks like he's about to say something else, but in the end he closes his mouth. This is awkward as hell.]
