Hi, are you me?

OK, so I never actually shipped Marian/Guy as such (just Guy/Marian, if that makes sense), but this is pretty much totally how it unfolded for me. The second time I saw it. The first time I hated it, because for whatever reason I totally blanked on Marian giving Guy her word not to cause trouble, and jesus, his face when he realizes she promised and then went right on to do it anyway. That's where it ends for him and it makes the rest of, well, everything make beautiful, terrible sense. Augh.

And well, I still have a problem with Marian's last stand - I just desperately want her to be, I don't know, her cunning self, or at least have a weapon of some sort. But that's probably just because I don't care what happens other than her being NOT DEAD, THANK YOU.

Which is why, when season three opens with Robin and his men still tied up in the desert and Marian coming to rescue them, having kicked the sheriff in the teeth, something something (save Robin Hood, save the King, save England in a less horrible way), I will forgive the writers for putting me through this.

Maybe.

(Shut up. I'm going to cling to this until proven wrong. I cannot, seriously-for-real, even conceive of a third season without her. Can you imagine the angst? Everyone except the Sheriff is going to be suicidal. It would be unbearable. And a ghost is not going to cut it for me.)
