Thanks to the awesome macro posted by
an_lagat_glas, my mind goes over the sizzling Robz/Izzy possibilities. Here's a few thoughts I've had about this couple:
Could they grow and mature together? I'll admit that Robin isn't one of my fav characters, but in his interactions with Isabella, there was such chemistry, as we all know. :-) But also the chance for Robin to win a woman who was not only similar in position but also battered by life.
Would Isabella's passionate and possesive Gisborne love (*melts*) ultimately be too much for him or would Isabella's capability for deep devotion and adoration be just what he needed? Even I can see the charm with Robin and his wish to be loved by everyone and it's running deep with him. But could he mature a bit through Isabella's needs for a partner without abusive traits?
Could Isabella's extreme (and somewhat OOC) mood swings that we see later in the show be tempered if she felt truly loved by Robin? Could she trust a man like Robin or would she always be mistrusing in a combination of Gisborne broodiness and years of abuse?
(And why does these thoughts pull me inside out, as if heart and belly changed place, LOL? Oh, ship! You draw me in! ♥)
