Tattoo? What Tattoo?
I really hate Gisbourne, and the Sheriff. Just when I thought I could bring them to justice, yet again they manage to worm their way out of it. Using Djaq's own invention, the nerve of them. I don't blame Djaq, or the others for wanting to get her back. I can't say I'm not angry, I'm furious at them for initiating the exchange, but I don't blame them as such. They just wanted her back. Will and Allan more than John and Much! That came as a bit of a surprise to say the least! Maybe it's just because she's the only woman they actually have contact with, other than Marian of course.
Marian. Came to the rescue again, sort of. Not sure how but it was thanks to her that I didn't kill Gisbourne, that and being knocked out a few times by Little John! Damn, my head still hurts! Got to remember that!
It started off an all right day, apart from the dreams. Almost gotten used to the dreams now, they're such a daily occurrence that I expect them every time I close my eyes. Pretty apt for the King's birthday I guess. Don't think Much has forgiven himself for letting slip about Gisbourne's little get together at Locksley! Rare slip up from him! Since when should I need an invitation to attend a meal in my own house?! I had to congratulate the happy couple too. But when I discovered Gisbourne's tattoo, well all gentlemanliness was forgotten. He tried to kill the King. He stabbed me. HE TRIED TO KILL THE KING!! The others wouldn't understand. They weren't there, they didn't experience what we did, they don't get the dreams. Think Djaq understood the sacrifice though. She wants peace as much as the next man, if not more.
Guess I have been a bit too wrapped up in myself lately, too preoccupied with Marian. But that's going to change. Now, I'm for the gang, all of them. I love Marian, and while I'll still do everything I can to prevent the wedding, I need to focus on the task at hand. Surviving Much's cooking!! Oh, and maybe stopping evictions, lowering taxes, relieving Noble's of their possessions and other such homely tasks as finding every way possible to ruin the Sheriff and Gisbourne's day!
Aah! Life is good, in a way! We have food, it's not raining, none of us are in the dungeons or face the noose. All in all, not a bad way to end the day! Time to take a more positive outlook on life I think, and look at all the things I have got and can do, rather than the other way round. After all, it's not like the Sheriff has a major weapon of mass destruction! Then we may have to renew our policy on avoiding trouble! Hang on, that isn't our policy anyway!!
RIGHT THEN! WHO FANCIES A RELAXING WALK TO NOTTINGHAM?! … COME ON MUCH! IT'LL BE FUN! I MIGHT EVEN BUY YOU AN APPLE! … YES, BY THE WORD 'BUY' I DO MEAN STEAL! BUT I PREFER THE WORD 'COMANDEER'! … NO I'M NOT JUST GOING OUT TO LOOK FOR TROUBLE! WHO DO YOU TAKE ME FOR?!! … I'M ROBIN HOOD, AND DON'T YOU FORGET IT!!!
