Everything is a choice, everything we do

The twins are here. They're both perfect and healthy, and the horrific sixteen hour labor was completely worth it. The fact that my body may never recover is entirely besides the point. Fucking hell.

We named them Allan and Roy. That first one's for you, Rick. I hope wherever you are up there you're still not being funny. Once an outlaw, always an outlaw.

It's hard to believe only a little over a month from now and we'll have two mini outlaws to care for. Where does the time go? Honestly the only indication I even have that any time has passed at all is the slow but steady increase of my stomach. I'm a small whale. When did that happen? Not sure when Christmas happened either but apparently it's all of a sudden three days from now. We also still need to decide on some names. I, of course, can't seem to think of any besides the obvious. Thing 1 and Thing 2? Has a nice ring to it. I was going to go with Huey and Dewey, but they're kind of lonely without Louie. Thank god I'm only having twins, I don't think I'd fit in the door if there were three of them in there!

I keep expecting to wake up and be without Robin again. Or wake up and be a very pregnant, and curiously very male outlaw. One of the two. I'm pretty sure I'm forever scarred from this, I may never recover. NEVER LEAVE ME AGAIN, ROBIN. CAN'T FUNCTION. NEED YOU.

Phin. I need another hug. And a jar of pickles. God these cravings are murder, someone give me something else to think about besides food!

Official Camelot Announcement:

In light of the events surrounding not just these last two weeks but the last few months, I have the following announcement to make on behalf of Daniel Morgan and of Camelot.

We've been struggling for peace. We've been attempting to rebuild. The events that took place last April were not ideal, and not something any of us should be proud of, but we did what we had to in order to insure that this war finally ended and no more innocent blood had to be spilled. Peace, that is all Daniel Morgan wants for the reincarnate community, but we see now that his views are not as widely shared as we had hoped. It is now very clear to us that our enemies? Are not in favor of putting this all to rest where it belongs and sparing more lives, regardless of how many people have already died for and because of this war. They are preventing our community from moving forward. We don't wish to be the cause of any more lives lost, but we cannot in our right minds continue to sit back while there are still those out there committing acts of violence and cruel manipulation against innocent people. Matthew Morgan's murder and the strange phenomenon that took place two weeks ago were the last straws. A clear indication that there are still those out there who would string us along like puppets purely for their own sick amusement and we won't have it. There are still those out there who think it acceptable to break into a man's home and murder them in front of their children. We won't have that either. Rest assured, we will find the one(s) who took Matthew Morgan's life and bring them to justice. Rest assured, if you were hoping we'd step up and meet you head on, we are now. If a fight is what you wanted, a fight is what you're going to get.

For those of you who haven't picked a side, consider carefully before picking the side of these relentless killers and butchers of peace. Camelot is here for you. If you're in need of help, you have only to ask and we will find a way. We will readily accept anyone who thinks they might want to join our cause and fight for a peace that Daniel Morgan and Camelot still believes in. A peace that can't be achieved as long as we continue to let our enemies have their way. I'm Betty Morland, the reincarnate of Robin Hood, and I say we will not tolerate this. Will you?

[OOC: I don't remember who all is actually in the Resistance. So far I count Betty, Phin, Sam, Jake, Reeve (?), Dallas, Rick, Mina, Nate and Savannah. If there was anyone else who wanted a do-gooder character in the Resistance, feel free to assume they're in it and reply!]

We're back! Fully honey moon-ed and ready to get back to work. Mostly. Thanks to everyone who came to the wedding! Very successful send off, I think. And by that I mean, nobody was saying their vows while dying on the edge of a sword. Definite progress. Kidding, Marian, please don't kill us...

I'm almost exactly nineteen weeks! And by that I mean only nineteen weeks, and these boys are already making my life hell. I'm eating the equivalent of entire herds of cattle, and I don't think anyone has ever felt leg cramps as horrible as I have. On the plus side, no more morning sickness? And our next ultrasound is next week to confirm what I am already positive of. There is no way these aren't boys growing in me, no way. It's a mom thing. Is it too soon to be thinking of names other then Thing 1 and Thing 2? Hmm. Probably. But if I don't start reading this book instead of looking at it, I may eat it too!

And I... think I just felt a kick. Whoa. That's amazing. Phin, I don't want to alarm you, but I think there's actually something in there...

PHIN. PHIIIIIIIN. PHIN. WHERE THE HECK DID YOU GO AND WHY ARE YOU NOT ANSWERING YOUR PHONE?!

PHIN THERE ARE THREE HEART BEATS. THREE.

Sooooo as Phin announced so out of the blue-like the other day (first the baby, now the wedding, I'm starting to think he's trying to steal my thunder), we're getting married in a month. Invitations were already sent out to those of you that were invited but I figure putting details on here couldn't hurt.

September 18th, that's a Saturday. The ceremony and the reception are taking place in Sherwood Forest. I know, I know, we're painfully predictable. By the way, in regards to our non-reincarnate family members, it's going to be weird enough explaining to them why we're getting married in a forest. Try and keep the reincarnate talk to a minimum? Having to explain to my parents that I have the voice of Robin Hood in my head is not exactly on my agenda for the big day, though I'm pretty good at improvising. Still. Just don't? And if any of the Sheriff's men happen to show up, um... Technically we're supposed to just pass them off as renaissance freaks but I won't mind if any of them get shot.

By the time this wedding rolls around I'm going to have a fairly noticeable bump. Classy. Dallas? Maybe we should hold off on the dress shopping until the last minute, I'm not liking the idea of zippers and/or buttons flying off in the middle of the ceremony. I'M GAINING WEIGHT, GODDAMNITT. I HAD NO IDEA THIS WAS POSSIBLE.

((OOC Note: Conversation between Betty and Jake is PRIVATE, kthnx!))

Dear Rick,

I think Dallas just ran off with one of the strippers. Was that not part of the plan?

Love, Betty

Edit Two Hours Later:

HEY EVERYBODY, DALLAS HARPER IS GETTING MAAAARRIIIED TOMORROOOW!

((OOC Note: Posted that night from a seedy strip club on the Las Vegas strip. IT'S DALLAS HARPER'S BACHELORETTE PARTY YA'LL!))

Camelot is holding their own memorial service for James and Sarah Miller tomorrow at two in the afternoon. They weren't just members of Camelot, they were our friends, and upstanding members of the reincarnate community. If you'd like to attend you'll have to ask me for the location as it will be closed to outsiders. May they find the peace in death that some of us may never find in this life. Fucking hell, I thought this was over...

Oh Phiiiiiin! (And everyone else) Say hello to King Richard! Isn't he precious?

Hey guys, I'm back. Sorry for completely checking out for a few days, there. Awkward... Time is such a weird thing. It always seems to go by the fastest when you just wish it would slow the hell down for awhile. For instance, has it really already been a year since you died, MJ? We miss you. I still have all your posters and the white glove I rocked for you at prom. Any other Michael Jackson fans out there? Meet his biggest. BIGGEST.

... In other news, Phin and I went for a preliminary check up last week, don't think I ever mentioned that. In another couple of weeks I'll be getting my first ultrasound! We're very excited, obviously. Still hard to believe I'm going to be a mother, but I guess that's pretty normal. At least I'm doing it with the best man ever. We've all been through some rough spots in the last few months, and I'm actually looking forward to settling down. (Somewhere in Texas you just heard my entire family drop dead from the shock.)

Anyway, as dear old MJ once said! Uh. Gotta be starting something? - No no, wait, I've got a better one... I'm gonna make a change, for once in my life.

( Phin )

He jumped? How could he Oh god Leon I'm so This is all my fau I hope you're Phin, I don't know if I can keep

... I can't do this.

If anyone has need for Betty in the next few days, just ask for Robin. I'm taking a front seat until she's ready further notice.

As Camelot's new political liaison I have the following brief announcement to make:

The war is still over. Daniel Morgan's (and Camelot's) new focus has been for the last couple months completely dedicated to the continuation of peace within the reincarnate community and rebuilding what was lost. We are not interested in starting another war. As for the recent jail break over the weekend that has led to several CORE prisoner's escapes, we're doing everything in our power to help the Agency and keep hostilities to a minimum. You should all know that Camelot is working directly with the Agency on this matter so any information regarding the prisoner escapes that is given to us will be passed on directly to the Agency, they are the people in charge and we're here to lend a hand.

To echo Deputy Director Colin Ford's sentiments, now is not the time to panic. If you or anyone you know has information on the jail break, please don't hesitate to come forward. Be smart and be safe, and remember that Camelot and the Agency are here if you need us.

- Betty Peabody

Weeeellll since Phin's already started sharing my news (he's excited, who can blame him), I guess I might as well tell everybody. Now that it's, you know, official and everything.

I guess first of all I should actually let everyone know since I'm almost positive I only told some, that we got engaged again!

Also, and this is a much more recent development, I'm pregnant. That's right, kids! Robin Hood is having a baby. Get ready for the next generation of baby outlaws. BABY OUTLAWS.

I'm not pregnant I'm not pregnant I'm not pregnant I'm not pregnant I'm not pregnant I'm not pregnant I'm not pregnant I'm not pregnant I'm not pregnant I'm not pregnant I'M NOT PREG-
