[OPEN] Far from Skid Row, I dream we'll go
Who: Robin Hood, and anyone unfortunate enough to be in his general vicinity
When: Nebulously between the arrival in Cochrane and now
Where: Gammon
What: Robin Hood is an idiot and a scoundrel, do not associate with him.
Rating: Probably not.
[Arriving in a whole new city is really exciting! For about 0.04 seconds, and then it's time to just immediately fuck off and go roughing it in the country. He's spent an entire month getting to know Caissa, and he'll probably go through a similar canvassing process for Cochrane, but...maybe later. For now, Robin can be found in the following places:]
i. hello from the other side (inn).
[If he's even here at all, it's probably either to sleep or to immediately leave as soon as he wakes up. He's only just gotten used to Caissa, so being shuffled off to another huge city is pretty irritating. And that's not even taking into account that he's expected to fight in some war - that part doesn't bother him as much as it might other people, but if he's going to have to do something unpleasant he might as well enjoy himself until then.
And that means not sticking around any longer than he has to, so he can probably be found doing things like sliding down banisters or jumping halfway down a set of stairs so he can spend 2 fewer seconds indoors on his way out. Watch out, guys.]
ii. tourist trap.
[The countryside of Gammon is supposed to be beautiful, and that's where Robin is spending the majority of his time. Maybe other people are, too! And maybe they're observant enough to notice the pitfall trap a few steps ahead of them, but if they aren't, they're gonna have a bad time.
It's not very deep, and it should be pretty easy to climb out of, unless someone particularly short falls in. It's an annoyance at worst, but what might be more annoying than the trap itself is Robin laughing at anyone unfortunate enough to fall for it from his perch in a nearby tree.
Should someone avoid the trap, it wouldn't be unnatural to look around for who set it up, and while Robin is mostly wearing green, that red hair of his sure stands out when someone is looking for it. For his part, he'll just give anyone who doesn't fall in the most disappointed look.]
iii. mission fae-led.
[When Robin isn't being a jackass to people he might not even know, he's...actually, he's always being a jackass to people he might not even know. And that's not even strictly limited to other people. Raised as a druid, he's always been particularly sensitive to fairies, and seeing as people shunned him for this ability, he tends to prefer the company of fairies to that of his fellow human beings.
The fairies in Blanc are...not exactly the same as the ones he's acquainted with, but similar enough to be comfortable with them. The fairies in Gammon are...to put it bluntly, less willing to put up with his bullshit than any of the other kinds he's met. That's why he's got one climbing up his back, and another one chasing his Carrier around. He looks like a babysitter who got stuck with two overbearing children.
Incidentally, the Carrier, for such a small bird, seems to be putting up a pretty good fight. It's a plucky little thing.]
iv. wildcard.
[hmu if you want to do something else instead!]

[ Downsides, yes, but even for getting literally ran over, Orihime doesn't seem to think the idea itself has any real problem. Well, any big problems. They both made it out just fine, right? ]
They don't mind you doing that here...?
[ She pushes herself to her feet, eyeing the stairs with interest. ]
no subject
[He's pretty sure he knows what she's getting at, though, so he continues:]
If they do get mad, you can tell them it was all my idea.
[Technically not wrong, and he's used to being in trouble anyway.]
no subject
I don't want to upset anyone, but...
[ Look at that bannister! ]
...I'm going to do it!
[ She nods with determination. And there she goes, running up the steps until she's at the very top. Give her a moment as she straddles the bannister. Very ladylike. ]
Is anyone coming?
no subject
["Probably" might not be the most encouraging word, but he can't guarantee no one will come careening down the hall or something.]
no subject
Alright...here I go!
[ With a hearty shove, Orihime sends herself flying down the bannister. She's a little wobbly, but the speed alone is more than enough to keep her going. Laughs giddily as she comes down towards the end. ]
sorry for how late this is.....
That was a good one. I was worried you'd fall off for a minute, there.
[He probably would've tried to catch her if she did, though.
Probably.]
no worries!
Gold medals in bannister sliding? Yes. ]
I just watched what you did and copied it!
no worries!
If that's the case, then no wonder. You're learning from an expert.
[As it turns out, bannisters make a great, silent alternative to just walking down like usual. It's very convenient for thieves, like him.]
