The crowd were ushered unceremoniously out of Marians room, a few looking shame faced after a scolding from her. Once back in the hall they looked about, wondering where to visit next, ignoring the outlaws persuasions to leave. Instead they followed the corridors until someone spotted Allan again, sauntering along a hallway. He quickly turned tail and ran as someone yelled out rather gleefully and suddenly several people gave chase.

“Traitor” muttered John, leaning on a wall

“But such a cute one” the person beside him replied with a sigh

John merely snorted at the remark.

“Well you may not agree, but others do” the same person replied, casting knowing glance over to Djaq and Will who had came to a halt as they took in the sight of Allan, opened mouthed as the others chased him. They both had to fight back the urge to follow suit, beat off the pursuers and have him all their own. Instead they merely gravitated to each others sides and tried to look indifferent.

Allan, and the perusing fans were all eventually tracked down in the great hall. He'd taken up a position behind the sheriffs chair, the sheriff himself having called on the guards to try and keep the crowd of people at bay. The crowd filled the room and the Sheriff was too puzzled and confused to be bothered with the fact that the outlaws had once more infiltrated the castle without invitation.

Guy looked down at his boots which were becoming increasingly surrounded by a pool of something wet. He frowned and a few people standing close by stepped away as the pleather heads pressed in closer.

“Careful folks, we got droolers” yelled someone over the din and everyone looked over at Guy, who rolled his eyes and gazed over at the sheriff hoping he'd help. Vaysey merely slumped further down his chair and shook his head mouthing 'A clue, no' over in his direction.

Allan yelped and turned around to see a few over eager folks poking him.

“Look, they did upgrade him to leather.” said one of them, grinning in delight.

“And here was me thinking it was just Vaysey revealing his kinky side.”

“Oh I've no doubt he's into the whole leather kink, Gis seems to don more and more as time goes by. Glad he's sharing with Allan though. I'll bet Will and Djaq are holding in their drool.”

Allan just stared open mouthed before folding his arms and leaning back on the sheriffs high back chair.

“I'm not being funny but, who are ya and where'd you all come from?” he said, a little miffed that he was being talked about like he wasn't present. He looked even more surprised when someone literally squeed and jumped up and down yelling “He said it, he said it.”

They all jumped when Vaysey, having decided enough as enough, and spying his favourite outlaw standing amidst the crowd jumped up from his seat and pointed a finger.

“Hood, I knew you'd have something to do with this. Who the hell are all these people?”

The room had fell silent, all eyes turned on the sheriff, who looked like his head was about to explode. Robin merely smirked, and shrugged his shoulders.

“It's got nothing to do with me. Ask him, he brought them.” he pointed out the Doctor who was smiling broadly enjoying the various conversations of the groups.

“Who, are you?” Vaysey spat out to the Doctor.

“Indeed I am,” replied the Doctor. “Must say this castle, I love what you've done with the décor.”

Vaysey looked like he was reaching boiling point, but the Doctor seemed oblivious to his plight. Vasyey looked around the crowd, wondering if anyone was going to offer an explanation, but no-one seemed very co-operative. He decided to turn his attention to Robin again.

“Hood, unless you want a lot of blood on your hands, I suggest you and your outlaws clear out and take this rabble with you.”

“But we don't want to go yet. We haven't even visited the dungeons yet.” someone moaned.

“If you're not careful, you'll become more than a visitor of the dungeons, I'll make you a patron of them.” Vaysey yelled.

“Gee's, he gets real pissy, real easily doesn't he?” said one of the leather clad people standing near Gisbourne.

Back in the open air, the large crowd headed back to the forest. John was starting to get irritated, one person had followed him around constantly, questioning him about everything. Even his threats to eat the bunny they had on a leash did nothing to dissuade them.

Will and Djaq found themselves subject to close inspection by many of the crowd, which made them both uncomfortable. Much was doing his best to keep himself from being smothered by blankets once more, resorting to holding his shield out protectively whenever someone tried to pounce on him. There was only so much cuddling a man could take in a day. Robin was tiring of being asked to give advice concerning shooting arrows.

As they neared the camp a squabbling started to arise amongst a few, and soon the entire crowd had come to a halt, as everyone argued their own points.

“It's just what they want us to believe, but everyone knows Robin is in love with Much.”

“No, that's just what YOU want us to believe, Robin is in love with Marian.”

“Yeah right, Marian, who just happens to shack up with Team Leather in the castle. Yes I'm sure shes not at all making out with Gis or Allan on regular occasions.”

“Ahh..the one true..threesome.” someone sighed.

“But Guy and Vaysey are together, although I doubt the Sheriff would turn his nose up at Allan. Two puppies are better than one.”

“And there's no way that the Sheriff would go anywhere near Marian. Lepers remember.”

“Yeah, but Guy is in love with Marian.”

“And Vaysey.” piped in a voice.

“And Allan.”

“Um, sorry to burst the bubble, but everyone KNOWS that Allan is with Will. He's just going through a phase right now, having been seduced over to the dark side by Guy. Guy and Allan, its all sexual tension, but Will and Allan is love. He'll come to his senses soon and coming running back to his one true love”

“Will is in love with Djaq.”

“And Allan.” said the voice again.

“Now there's a one true threesome.”

“You're all nuts, everyone knows that Djaq and Marian are totally into each other. That leaves Robin and Much, Allan and Will, Guy and Vaysey.”

“What about John?”

“Aside from Queens falling hook, line and sinker for him, John is still pining away for his Alice.”

“Personally I think that Robin has had been getting it on with Guy.”

“Yeah and Much with Allan. All that bickering is just a cover for them totally getting in on in the woods.”

“Much is in love with Eve.”

“Eve schmeve, it's totally Robin, and maybe Will sometimes. And perhaps a lil bit of Allan.”

“So wait, your telling me that Robin is with Much but also Marian. Marian is with Robin, and perhaps Djaq, as well as Gisbourne and Allan. Sometimes both of them at the same time, and they are also sometimes with the Sheriff. And then sometimes Allan is with Will, and perhaps Djaq and Will and Djaq are definitely an item. Little John is fancied by a Queen, and is in love with his long gone wife, and Much has a girlfriend on the side?” interjected The Doctor, trying to keep up.

A group of blank faces all looked at him trying to process the information. The outlaws merely stood outside of the group, mostly open mouthed in a dazed sort of shock. A few of the fanfolks repeated the Doctors words, using their fingers to go through names, before they all looked at him and nodded their heads.

“Yeap.” they all said in unison.
