Following the autumn betrothal of Lady Marian of Knighton and Robin of Locksley, the May Faire festival comes to Nottingham and reveals how much one of them has been forced to change, and the other, how little.

Advert made by me, the pic below altered by DreamersScape, She's awesome.
This is meant to sort-of be the pic that Marion had at Barnsdale that Eva references having seen. (Though, of course Robin would have been beardless in that one...Jonas Armstrong was not accommodating in that respect...)

RH SHORT FIC - We Are 2011 - LOOSE ENDS - 6.2 of 6
April 14th, 2011
Title: Loose Ends
Author: Nettlestone Nell
Word Count: 2951
Rating: PG-13
Characters/Pairings: Allan, and three series 1&2 guest role characters I'd rather not list, so as not to spoil the fun. This is a universe in which the following pairings exist (though not all appear in this work): Much/Eve, Will/DJaq, Robin/Marian, Allan/OFC.
Spoilers/Warnings: Every season. This is meant to be read after my We Are 2011 series finale, "Why We Fought" the 6th of 6.
This, I guess, is a sort of '6.2' of 6. A "deleted scenes" from the special features of the "We Are 2011" DVD. Certainly it is not meant to be another finale--perhaps just more like a rounding out, or simply standing as proof that I am having trouble giving this particular vein of madness up.
Read, in the following order (also the order in which they were posted), my INTERCOMM 2011 submissions:
1 - "A Bit Too Much" at 'Treat Much Right'
2 - "Deposed" at 'Society for People Who Are Afraid of Maid Marian'
3 - "The Long Dark Knight of the Soul", and
4 - "Gonna Wash That Man Right Outta My Hair", both at 'Sir Guy Treats YOU Right'.
5 - "Much Gets By with a Little Help From His Friends" at 'Treat Much Right'.
6 - "Why We Fought" at 'Treat Allan Right' - the finale.
If you don't read those first, this piece will spoil you for the fun of the prior five, and certainly will double-skunk spoil you for the sixth (the finale).
Summary: Written and conceived entirely after the finale "Why We Fought" was written. [People! Quit asking me to go on. The addict loves her needle, and I'm sick in the head--I'll try to do it to please you!] As I said somewhere priorly, Allan will eventually take over all fan fiction. At least mine. Here, pre-We Are 2011's finale, he tries to tie up the titular "loose ends" of Much's legal action.
Disclaimer: No one can truly own the legend of Robin Hood, but BBC/Tiger Aspect seem to hold rights to this particular iteration. Even though Much's whole legal battle, as you recall, did not so much end in their favor... ;)

RH SHORT FIC - We Are 2011 Series: Why We Fought - 6 of 6
April 2nd, 2011
Title: Why We Fought
Author: Nettlestone Nell
Word Count: 4101
Rating: PG-13
Characters/Pairings: Much, Little John, Allan, Will, DJaq, Guy, OFCsx2; Much/Eve, Will/DJaq, Robin/Marian
Spoilers/Warnings: Entire series, and, it is imperative that you listen, because reading this without knowing what has come before could prove catastrophic, and will certainly render the earlier segments far-less enjoyable:
my INTERCOMM 2011 submissions,
1 - "A Bit Too Much" at 'Treat Much Right',
2 - "Deposed" at 'Society for People Who Are Afraid of Maid Marian'.
3 - "The Long Dark Knight of the Soul"
4 - "Gonna Wash That Man Right Outta My Hair", both at 'Sir Guy Treats YOU Right'.
...and the immediately preceding (at one time thought to be the finale)
5 - "Much Gets By with a Little Help From His Friends" at 'Treat Much Right'.
Read those first. No joke. Nothing here will make sense if you don't. Additionally, no LiveJournal IDs were harmed in the writing of this fic.
Summary: The conclusion of the INTERCOMM-spawned series newly-christened, "We Are 2011". Part Six, the final. (Written and conceived, actually, after the INTERCOMM had wrapped.)
In which certain questions spawned by the series receive their answers: Who is Nettlestone Nell? Why would she have Much's original letter to BBC? What have Much and Eve been spending their time doing? How came Allan to possess the damning videotape and pink slip of one P.J. Lackland? Where did Robin and Marian flee once he was released by the Sheriff? And why have they not resurfaced? After eight-hundred years can people truly change? And finally, at *which* grave of Coeur-de-Lion are we meant to meet?
Disclaimer: No one can truly own the legend of Robin Hood, but BBC/Tiger Aspect seem to hold rights to this particular iteration.
Additionally, all characters herein are fictional (historical ones heavily fictionalized), and all representations of corporations (such as BBC) are not based on anything even vaguely resembling fact.

Spoilers/Warnings: 100% pre-series speculation. No spoilers for the show.

RH Short Fic - 1180 AD, The New World
February 21st, 2011
Title: The New World
Author: Nettlestone Nell
Word Count: 2263
Rating: G
Characters/Pairings: Robin/Marian, Much, OC
Spoilers/Warnings: Pre-series speculation. No spoilers for the show.
Summary: What was the day like when Robin, Marian and Much first found their way into Sherwood Forest?
A/N: This is an entirely stand-alone excerpt from a far longer fic I wrote (which was abundantly full of flashbacks). I have decided to publish the flashbacks discreetly, for people who might like to read them (but not an epic-ly long version of an alternate Season Three). And to make it easier for me to find them myself. Yes, I'm that vain, I like to re-read them from time to time b/c they make me happy.
*The only thing you need to know is that, unlike the series, Marian has an older brother, (my OC) Clem, nine years her senior. (Later, still pre-series, he will die as one of Richard's knights.)
