Since she is one of my very favourite characters in the history of earth -- like, seriously, the only one who safely and unchangingly ranks above her at present is Hermione Granger -- I felt the need to do a Marian picspam! Because not only is she brilliant and amazing and completely awesome in every single way there is to be awesome: she is also really, really pretty.

So I present to you -- Marian throughout season two! Featuring a whole lot of Guy, because -- wouldn't you know -- nearly all of my Marian caps seem to be from her scenes with Guy! (Lord knows why on earth that might be.) But that Robin dude (what's his deal again?) even makes an appearance or two! Shockingly.



































And this is where we're going to stop. Because while she continued to be very gorgeous in 2x12 and 2x13, well, those episodes just bum me out. And I don't need none of that. So let's call it quits at a happy place!

SO PRETTY! gah, she's just so gorgeous and amazing - I love her expressions (I don't think I've ever seen a cap of the one with her staring at Robin - who is thankfully obscured by his quiver - before, but honestly, that is an amazing face. Also, pretty. Did I mention the pretty?). And the lighting in this show just loves her, and I am now in woes of not having a Marian icon anymore. Even in the scenes with That Robin Guy, she's amazing - that's actually how I could watch those scenes without grimacing, because she's so pretty when she's all glowingly happy and in love. heh.

Relatedly, though, I feel compelled to ask: is it just me or does that R/M kiss look far more awkward and uncomfortable than otp!kissing has any right to?

Oh, I totally get that feeling! Watching Robin/Marian scenes got to be like emotional whiplash for me or something -- the shot would be of Marian, all glowing and beautiful and giddy, and I'd be all, 'EEE! LOVE! LOVE!', and then it'd cut to Robin, and I'd immediately get all irritated and grumbly. It was very exhausting.

And oh man, don't even get me started on the Robin/Marian kissing. :D Or maybe . . . DO get me started (http://dollsome.livejournal.com/860084.html#cutid1).

So true-it was like he was kissing his sister! So much more chemistry between RA and LG than JA and LG. Just watch through 2-11. There is a lot of good fic out there with alternative endings. I just read those.

HA! That is highly accurate and AWESOME. It's going in my memories...RIGHT NOW.

Would you mind terribly if I were to friend you? Because we obviously have similar brains, at least as pertains to Robin Hood. (And you write La RomCom, so you're clearly an astonishingly cool person.)

Not at all! :) Glad to be friended -- I'll add you back!
