*claps wildly*

You are just fantastic. Your enthusiasm for this show is inspiring and makes me happy indeed. I love this, especially the way you wrote Marian's point of view.

This I really liked:

"Oh, Robin Hood," she snapped, looking into the distance as if she couldn't bear to see him in front of her. "You listen to peasants crow about your deeds and you live your life as if you were a legend."

Doesn't he though? And wouldn't it be a different world for them all, if he didn't.

Now...admission time:

"I have nothing to tell you," she said. "Sir Guy has - wisely - been holding his tongue around me, I think."

Okay, my brain went to a rather naughty place there. I blame Richard Armitage.

You SO win for reading my story. YOU SO WIN. :DDDDD And I am currently working my way through your latest. It is so exciting to read your fic now that I know the fandom!

I'm so glad you liked that bit of dialogue ... because it was that, crawling into my head, that started this scene in the first place. :P

LOL. Richard Armitage is kind of hot, isn't he? If it weren't for my now-eternal devotion to Jonas and Gisbourne's unfortunate habit of killing people, I'd probably be fantasizing about him too.

*CLINGS TO ROBIN HOOD*

Thank you so much for making my day and commenting. :)

Oh lovely characterisation. You've captured the Marian-Robin banter ( and Marian's voice) so well.

*claps* this is a great 'cut scene' from the show, it truly felt like it was from an episode. You capture the characters and their speech brilliantly. I really like this. Good job :- )

(OH MY GOD, I ADORE YOUR ICON. :P )

the supply of good r/m fics is thin.

Really? Oh, good! I'm just getting into this fandom and was worried that I'd be boring just wanting to write R/M ... but that's what's tickling my muse right now. I'm glad you want to read more, because I'm working on something else!

Thanks so much for leaving a comment. :)
