That last line... fantastic! I can just hear Keith Allen delivering it!

I'm not usually one for Guy/Marian but this was really sweet and (of course since it's you) well written.

And LOL at Marian being peeved at no pressie from Robs! I'm sure he'll slip her something later! ;)

Thank you so much! You say the loveliest things :D

I tend towards the opinion that Guy deserved to get Marian, but Marian was no good for him (being the fickle temptress that she was). So in a way this was probably less GuyxMarian than the guyxmarian members will be expecting given that I posted it there too :)

Awwww! So sweet! I really enjoyed that. <3 <3 <3 (Will someone tell me how to make hearts on LJ, btw? I remember seeing a code once but I forgot where.)

Poor Guy. *sniffle*

I especially like this bit:

She took Guy’s arm, and let him lead her back to her room. When they reached it, she thought she felt Guy shaking, and did not realise that it was the excitement of being close to her that engendered it. “Are you cold?” she asked.

The note of what seemed like genuine concern struck Guy’s heart like a dagger, and he almost had to bite his tongue to prevent himself crying out, blurting out his feelings for her in an incoherent jumble of words. So he simply nodded.

*melts into a puddle*

And the last line, yeah. So Sheriff.

Awww, thank you! :D I'm really glad it works! I don't write Guy and Marian very often. *squee*

Hee! Yes, the last line is the perfect punchline to this sweet ficlet. Thanks for writing this! Love it!

If she was anything like their mother, she would be doing her best to see that her own children were happy at Christmastime...

So nice to know that Guy had a few happy memories from his youth. Wonder how things would've turned out if Ghislaine hadn't died?

Ditto everyone's comments, especially re that last line. Classic!!

Well done!

*squee* Thank you! :D

I do enjoy reconstructing Guy's youth, for some reason. Pet hobby :)
