It is past midnight when Guy of Gisborne returns to Locksley Manor and goes upstairs to his wife’s bedchamber. In the hazy orange-tinted light of a single candle, Marian is bundled under the blanket in the middle of the bed, her face hidden, her hair scattered over the pillows.

Aw, thank you for the wonderful gushing, here and on ff.net! :) Actually, to answer your comment on ff.net, this is not the S3 AU fic that I mentioned; that one is a multichapter affair which pretty much sticks to canon until mid-Season 3 when Marian returns (obviously, having survived her unfortunate encounter with Guy's sword). I'm co-writing it with tangofiction and we're only just getting started, so it will be a while (and we've decided not to post it as a WIP but wait until it's finished). All good things come to those who wait, though! :D

Love your comments about Guy and Marian in this fic; this is exactly how I see them and their relationship. As for RA's idea for a G/M marriage in S3 -- well, I'm sure he didn't envision the whole gang being killed! :D There are actually a couple of excellent but still-unfinished fics dealing with a scenario in which Marian marries Guy "for the cause" in late S2 -- An Exchange of Vows by vividviolet83 and Most Unwanted by hulamoth. I know hulamoth is definitely planning to finish her story, don't know about vividviolet83 -- she hasn't updated since last January, but then again she's had 5 months between updates before that. So I'm not abandoning hope. :)

I do like the fact that you addressed the history of Prince John ACTUALLY becoming King.

Oh, thank you. :) In my headcanon for this AU, Marian goes on to write the Magna Carta. :D Whyever not?
