Status: In progress
Rating: TBD

There was something suspicious in the air whenever Vaisey, Sheriff of Nottingham went anywhere looking as placid as he did right now. It usually spelled trouble. Or meant that he'd just settled himself with an unusually calming bout of violence. He was hoping, though, that Hood didn't know him as well as he thought.

Shuffling up to the door of Cabin 003, his fist lightly met the door three times before Vaisey himself took a step back, hands clasping behind his back as he turned to study the scenery. Look...nothing up his sleeves...

He knew, as soon as he felt the carpet against his cheek, that he had to get up. He hadn't let something like this stop him the last time. And he had to stop Vaizey, before he got to Marian. And Katie, too. The pain flaring in his side at the effort, he managed to get his arms under him, and had just started to push himself up when Vaizey, who was standing behind him, landed a kick right to the wound, and the pain he'd felt before was suddenly nothing compared to what it was then. He was powerless to stop himself collapsing back to the carpet, barely biting back a groan, consciousness wavering.

The next thing he was aware of was a loud noise, and then the familiar feel of something soft against his cheek, and the intoxicating scent of flowers he'd know anywhere. "Marian..." The word was whisper quiet, barely more than an exhalation of breath. He thought he heard her say something, but didn't know what it was.

	Well it was something, at least. But she didn't like how faint that response was. Leaning in, she pressed a quick kiss to his forehead, unwinding the scarf around his neck and pressing it firmly to the wound. "Robin, love..." She took hold of his hand, positioning it over the cloth, holding it there with her knee as she texted for help. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He couldn't help but gasp when she pressed the scarf against his side, awareness flooded with pain once more. His eyes opened slightly when he felt her move his hand, and he was aware of her form kneeling beside him, but he felt as though he was looking at her through a fog. His eyes slipped shut again.

	She needed to take care of Vaisey, makes sure that he wouldn't go anywhere but for the moment, with Robin floating in and out of consciousness...it was better for her to stay beside him, keeping the pressure on the wound. "Robin, stay with me," she pleaded. "Look at me." Phone buzzed as replies flooded in. Someone would help. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The sound of her voice dragged him back closer to awareness, just forcing his eyes open, though all he could see was the shadows of his lashes, the colour of the carpet beyond them. "Is..." He couldn't get his mind to cooperate, everything felt sluggish. He had no idea what he wanted to say. But Marian wanted him to stay, and he was trying. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Tears of relief pricked her eyes; he wasn't dead. Not yet, not ever if she could help it. "I leave you alone for two minutes," she began. It was supposed to be teasing, but her voice broke in the middle. "Help is coming," Marian almost whispered, leaning in to press another soft kiss to his lips. "So please don't leave me."

	An involuntary laugh, quiet though it was, escaped him at that. "Don't..." He tried to finish the sentence, but he lost his train of thought again when he tasted blood in his mouth. "Not...anywhere." Or something like that, anyway. Where was he going to go, did she think? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

He didn't want to know where she thought he might go. But at least he was laughing, however faintly.

"Good," she nodded, eyes darting up as a sudden breeze blew through the room. "Cavalry's here," she whispered, smoothing his hair back.

"Clark's going to take you to the infirmary. I'll be there soon, love." But she couldn't just leave Vaisey there.

She squeezed his hand, gently before scooting back, giving Clark a nod of thanks as he gently hoisted Robin up. And then they were gone, leaving her alone with Vaisey.
