Robin Hood (EasilyAmused & Jones Sparrow)

He looked good in gray? Oh, he'd have to remember that, even if his brain stopped for a second as Marian closed the gap shortly to help with his crooked tie. "I... thank you." He laughed slightly at her response, and before long they were walking to the car. At her comment of safe words, he gave a low chuckle and shook his head. "You think you're so funny, don't you?" He climbed into the passenger seat after he tried to offer to open the door for her. When she thanked him he couldn't help but smile slightly, and nodding. "Of course." He couldn't admit it, but he'd walk through hell to get any chance to accompany her. "And it's going to be an interesting night if you take me as a 'normal' person. I'll make sure we have fun at this snooty place. I doubt that our Governor has the creativity to make this place fun on its own."

It was interesting to see who showed up as they pulled up to the building. The valet was there to greet us immediately, and as they entered the building, he stopped, and sighed. "I forgot to tip the valet, wait in the lobby I'll be right back." He said apologetically. After giving the valet a generous tip, he made his way back to the entrance, and slyly bending down to tie his shoe, and in the process putting a small device on the door frame of the building. Once the doors lock, this would give the Merry men an opportunity to enter without a passcode.

Robert found Marian, and held out his arm for her to take. They entered the main doors to the ballroom, and it seemed the two had the same reaction. Robert laughed, shrugging a bit. "Maybe after a martini or two." He joked, maybe too loudly as Marian's father appeared. He shook his hand when he was introduced, and did his best to not attract the attention of the man in charge of the NYPD. He had a feeling he would be under his watchful eye any time he was near Marian. Not exactly what he wanted. As he left Robert gave a fake sigh of relief, looking at the blonde. She was stressed, he couldn't imagine the amount of stress that she had on her shoulders. "Oh I spotted it the second we got in. I'll go grab something, what's your poison?" He grinned.

Once he had the order, he gently took her hand and squeezed it, maybe as an assurance that she was okay, maybe because he simply wanted to touch her. Either way he slipped into the crowd, nodding, smiling, and saying quick hello's as he went to the large wooden bar. He ordered the drinks, and took a quick glance around the area. It was heavily guarded, but Robert knew that. No one was heavily armed, and it would be rather easy for the disguised Merry Men to keep the guards at bay.

"Robert." Edward made his appearance sooner than Robert thought. Robert turned to greet the man with a smile, but he could tell in Edward's eyes that he wasn't too happy. "Here to cheer Governor Lyon on?"

"More or less. Right now I'll settle for the cheers of this alcohol. It's good to get out of the office and focus on something good."

"Yeah, especially with good company. Did she... ask you?" Robert turned to pick up his drinks, and shrugged slightly. "It was kinda a last minute thing. Don't worry, Eddy. You can't win 'em all." He gave him a wink and grin before he headed off back to Marian. It felt good to beat Edward in more ways than one. Soon he'll face Robin Hood face to face and won't be able to do a thing about it. Robert found Marian chatting once again, and he quietly introduced himself back into her company, handing her the drink, and raising his own to do a small cheers. "The line was torture... Honestly, I'd say to hell with all this politics. Give me a run down pizza parlor, and a couch with a good movie any day." Of course he had to focus, but then again having Marian by his side, dozing off to a cheesy movie sounded like heaven.

Maybe one day.

An idea or two! (Will eventually update!)

Updated with a new Plot idea! :D

The Marauders (2018)

@KaiserElectric

Ray and Aamara will soon be staring down the Galactic Committee, so be prepared XD

The Marauders (2018)

Raymond continued to watch from a distance, keeping his focus even though he was beyond exhausted. She seemed fine, though, after all of this. Raymond held back bitterness, it wasn't her fault. There was something missing here. How did the Ulnar get their hands on this person, and why was the Committee so hellbent on getting her back? The Captain nodded to Rae's advice and own comments about the girl's status. "Just keep an eye on her, Rae... There's something off about this whole situation, Aamara is sending a report now, and I won't have kind words to them when I speak to the Committee in person. Just, make sure she doesn't touch anything. I know she's a kid but there's a reason why the Ulnar kept her a secret. Valanx's voice then came through the comms system, and Ray sighed in frustration. He had forgotten about the pod, and didn't mean to leave the scientist alone with it. "Copy that, I'll be over in a second." He pushed off the wall and looked at Tony and Rae. "Don't take your eyes off her. I'm sure there's something for her to eat in Anderson's rations." He said with a hint of sadness. It wasn't supposed to be passive aggressive, he was just tired of it all.

He entered the Berean's room and was always surprised about how it was all an organized mess of equipment, wires, and other tech. Some of the things Raymond knew, but others he would be lost. He found the science officer looking at a dismantled pod that he saw about an hour ago with a computer. "Damn, you work fast. Anything pop out at you?" Raymond asked, going over to the computer and entering his Captain's code to unlock otherwise restricted tools from the team. He was curious what Valanx found.

The Marauders (2018)

I was waiting for you guys for now XD didn’t wanna butt into the convo that was going on, but I can get a postnup sometime super soon!

The Marauders (2018)

I say we carry on! Worst case we'll have to update Scarlet. Hopefully they're alright!

Robin Hood (EasilyAmused & Jones Sparrow)

"You're doing it again."

"Doing what?"

"Thinking about her. Focus. Go over the plan with me again."

"Seriously John? I got this."

"Once you get to the party, what are you going to do?"

"You mean before or after I plant the device outside of the main entrance? I Follow Marian. Greet her 'friends' that she's supposed to like, shake hands, eat finger food, wait until Lyon shows his Then it's show time. You and the Merry Men come in in some nice little server outfits, when Lyon gives his speech, we go to work." Robin glanced over at John. "Satisfied?"

John rolled his eyes and crossed his arms as he watched Robing finish tying his dark blue tie, and straightened out the wrinkles in his gray suit. It was simple, nothing too flashy. He was merely there to compliment the beauty of Marian. While she got the praise, he would easily be able to sneak out. Robin pointed to a small bag in the corner. "That's my goody bag. Make sure to hide it somewhere nice when you get in."

"I'll make sure to find the dirtiest garbage can to put it in." The two of them heard a knock on the door, and the voice of the blonde behind it. Cassie's head popped out from the top of the staircase. "No! You're still grounded!" Robin said to her, rushing to the door. He was too late. Cassie opened the door to see Marian in her dress, and went wide eyed. "Holy cow!" She exclaimed. Robert quickly pushed her to the side, giving a smile and looking her up and down. "Damn." he muttered, before shaking his head a bit. "I mean, hi. Sorry. You look amazing." A laugh escaped his lips, and he looked at his watch. "Ready?"

Robert turned to look back at Cassie. "Be good, be safe. And don't. Leave. This. House." His voice had a hint of a threatening tone that made Cassie cross her arms and nod with a sarcastic smile. "Yes sir."

Robert would have rolled his eyes but that would have given her a sort of satisfaction. God, she was so much like him.

Robert exited the house, and as soon as he closed the door Little John was contacting the Merry Men updating them on their biggest threat yet.

"So I think we should have a code word... You know, if we want to get away from people we don't want to talk to. I was thinking 'burgundy.' Easy to add into a sentence about curtains or dresses or something."

The Marauders (2018)

Raymond was still heated, still upset by how he lost control of himself, his crew member, and the look alone from Aamara confirmed that he crossed a certain line. The Marauders wouldn't be around though if Raymond didn't take the necessary precautions. She was a girl, sure, but she was also hidden from them by the Committee and pirates. Who know what she was capable of. And then the girl hugged his arm. The hand that had been shaking for a while now suddenly stopped, and all he could do was look down at her. For a second the face of pain and sorrow seemed familiar. Too familiar for him to look any longer. He coughed and slowly pulled his arm away, but as he hesitated he put it gently on her back to continue to lead the way. "Come on." His voice was much softer.

Dev's voice once again shot through his ear, but with professionalism. Even after the drama the Monroe and it's crew was able to keep operating. "Thanks Dev... You can overlook the cargo for the meantime. Before you go searching around have Aamara and some robots take a sweep of the area. Valanx then gave a status on the cryo-pod. "I'll give you the green light in a second. Tango, watch over the doctor and help him scan the thing." The Security Officer was the next to speak up, and he shook his head. "No, I don't want to have her in this mess right now. We'll both talk to her in a little bit. Right now I need you to get a debriefing ready to send, try not to be too specific." The Committee made it clear that they didn't trust them with the information about this cargo. He was going to make sure the Admiral gets surprised by the fact that they know full well that they smuggled a human being--which was frowned upon.

The eventually made it to the med bay, where he gave a nod to Tony before leading the girl to a bed and helping her up. He slowly walked towards a wall and leaned against it. "To me she looks human, but honestly she could be some other race. She hasn't spoken a word since we found her. Might be shock. I'm sure she's understood what we've been saying though. Maybe the cryo-pod will give more information but for now, just start throwing 'hello's' at her." He did his best to update the tired looking linguist. They were all exhausted, and after this was over he wanted to talk to the Admiral about cashing in their vacation time.

The Marauders (2018)

Sorry folks, I had a really good childhood friend pass away recently, so I made an unexpected trip back home for his funeral and stayed a week. I’m okay, I had a while to grieve about it, and I should get a post up tonight!

The Marauders (2018)

"I must have missed the news that you became the new Captain." Raymond said sarcastically, continuing to walk down the hallway. "But you're right. What harm could this girl do? The girl that was held inside a fake cargo crate that we took from the galaxy's most notorious pirate race that almost went extinct trying to get her back. Oh, I bet she's exhausted from her long day. Let's get her a warm meal, some fresh clean clothes and a soft bed. It's not like Anderson will be using that shit anymore." Raymond turned to face Dev. His eyes were exhausted, but showed no signs of backing down.

They were known to butt heads, but if Raymond were being honest, he respected the man enough to listen to him on certain points. If he was giving him lessons or morals, he should probably calm down. He looked down at the girl for what seemed like the first time, and it struck him on how tiny she looked.

Great. What have we gotten ourselves in to? Ray thought. The exhaustion, and his ghosts made him a cruel man to someone who didn't earn that. He was simply being cautious for the crew, but in doing so making him something he wasn't. She looked a lot like his younger sister...

The Captain loosened his grip slightly on her arm. "Doctors Driani and Valanx, I'm sending the girl up to the med bay. Do a check up, give her food, and and see if you can find anything that makes her so damn special. Diaz swing by too, She hasn't spoken a word, and I want to make sure she knows Common Speech... God knows what the Ulnar did to her." He changed direction, and instead of forcing her to go in front of him, he walked beside her, still cautious.
