He's wearing the blind beggar costume, and nails it too, his impression exactly like a blind beggar.

"Alms, alms for the poor. Alms for the poor..." *He says while tapping his stick and holding his cup, really nailing it.*

"Pretty good. But there is a problem - I won't be able to get you through. The Sheriff is restless tonight - of all nights! Though, judging by how well that act you've got running is, I'd say we could switch roles. You distract the Sheriff, and I'll get Marian down here. Try to keep him busy for at least two minutes, then meet back here."

(Also I've encountered a bit of a problem. Like I said earlier, I haven't watched the Disney version in a while, so I don't really remember how the Sheriff of Nottingham acts. My solution would be to do a toned down version of the Sheriff of Rottingham from Men in Tights with more of a focus on the Disney setting than the Mel Brooks one. Plus, Nottingham has a weird speech impediment that makes him mess up pronunciations of words or Butcher the order of words entirely, and I always wanted to narrate that since I watched Men in Tights for the first time. Is that okay?)

"Well, look at it this way: If all goes well, John won't notice she's missing until we're long gone, and even if we do wake up, he's hardly gonna do anything to stop us himself, and we're too quick for his soldiers."

"Alright then. I'll add one thing: I can get close to Marian without anyone getting suspicious, and I can get her out from there. But it'll require you and Little John and whoever else you have with you to stay hidden, maybe for a whole day. This plan does have fewer risks, but I think the first one would be a bit more fun."

(Also, Robin is just straight toying with John in the Disney one. We're talking borderline psychological warfare. Not that I'm complaining - it made for a good joke in the song they sang in Sherwood Forest)

(Also, I recently watched a Mel Brooks version of the Robin Hood tale called Robin Hood: Men in Tights. In that, Friar Tuck becomes Rabbi Tuckman and the Sheriff of Nottingham becomes the Sheriff of Rottingham, so if I mix up the names, that's why. I've legit watched Men in Tights so many times that Nottingham doesn't even sound right anymore)

Robin Hood begins to think for a bit.

"I wouldn't be so sure, Robin. That tree out in the courtyard still has your initials carved in it. And with the way Marian's been talking about you recently, I'd say there's a good chance that pretty soon, King Richard's gonna have an outlaw for an in-law."

(I suggest we take this and make it a sort of AU that diverges from the Disney movie's events in that my character is incorporated by switching around events and adding things that weren't there before. For example: What my character does here by offering to help sneak Marian out to Sherwood Forest)

"Hmm, you're right... I figure I could probably sneak her out here to Sherwood for you, if you want."
