First Person Survey for: Adam Flynn, Former Fletcher Name Given at Birth: Adam Erwin Flynn Nicknames: Adam Hometown or where you were born: Canterbury Current Residence: The Forest of Sherwood Age: 42 Class: well, we was middle class till that great and mighty clumperton of a sheriff drove from our homes, now they calls us common thieves What do you do, your main function in life/society: well , was once the Royal Fletcher to the King, but when he went away The Sheriff tried to corrupt any that would hear him, he wants the King's throne, I took me Molly and ran fer the Sherwood, now I make Bow's Arrow's and the like for Robin ~sigh~ someday we will get our home back Have you ever gone skinny-dipping / do you know how to swim: not zactly sure what a skinny dip is, but I did learn to swim here at the swill pond, Molly give me a shove and said bathe or drowned Do you make fun of people: Heavens NO, I poke a bit o fun at Robin and Little John from time to time, but I wouldn't poke at someone I don't know, might hurt their feelings Favorite Color: Green, oh and Brown too, those two color's save my life on a daily basis Have you ever committed or been convicted of a crime: Heavens NO, I could NEVER break my Molly's heart like that, but again that would depend on who you ask, The Sheriff would say otherwise, but if King Richard ever gets wind of what the sheriff is up to, twill be the sheriff that'l stretch Closest friends/How did you meet: Well, Robin of Course, twas his father that got me the appointment of Royal Fletcher, still don't know why he took a liking to me, for the longest time he was telling Robin he shouldn't be consorting with the middle class, I was just learnin me fletchin skills when i met Robin, I always kept him a good supply of arrows, then there's Ethan, and Little John, we were all wee brats together, Collins the Blacksmith, Thought he was a good friend, turned his back on us though, thou doest find out who thine truest friends are in times like these One Pillow or two: Molly says if she cant have a pillow then I cant either (iffin I had one, I'd give it to her anyways) Pets: Who has time for pets? if it wanders close to camp, it's Supper, However, there is a White Stag that comes around, Maid Marion took a liking to it so we leave it be Favorite Type of Music: anythin I can tap me foot too Hobbies/Pastimes: no time for that sort of thing, too much to do with fixing huts and keepin bows an arrows in supply, but I suppose shootin a good bow used to be a hobby afore it come to bein a matter of survival Personal Hygiene: Well when I needs a Bath Molly gives us a shove into the Swill pond (twas how I learned to swim) Favorite Food: Molly's Stew, (She's a mighty Fine Cook she is) Manchet bread, cooked bird, had leg of lamb once as a child, I can still taste it to this day Are your parents alive, do you get along with them: Mum ans Dad are gettin on in years, they picked up and moved off about the time the sheriff began his tryanny, I dunno where they went, and it's better that way, I'd only try to see them and most likely put them in danger If your parents are dead, when and how did they die: they are not dead Favorite place to relax: There's a tree at the edge of the Sherwood that is very tall, I can climb up most of the way to the top, there is a sturdy cross branch where I can sit and see all of Canterbury whilst I fletch a bit of Special arrows for Robin, I look out at Canterbury and dream of the day I can take my Molly home again, back to the life we once had, a modest one, but one she misses terribly, if it is in my power she shall have it once more Favorite Holy Day / Why: that would be the first day of May St Ceallach Day, My Son's Day of Birth, which in itself makes it a holy day for my Molly and I Favorite Drink: Mead when I have the time to enjoy it, water when I don't, I am but a simple man with simple pleasures What's your bedtime: Well now that depends on many things, if all my work is done and tis not my watch that eve, then about half past sunset, if it is my watch, or there is a great need for weapons then there may not be shut eye for me that eve (Molly hates when that happens, always commentin of the cold and lonely moss, I've not yet seen one bit of moss in our hut, but if you were to ask her, we sleep on the forest floor) What, if anything, do you usually wear on your feet: Not much choice there, only had the boots on me feet when we was run off, didn't have much time for the gatherin of things (though I now whish I'd of collected Molly's Pillow) Are you married or single: Married 22 years to the best woman I ere could have found, was rough in the beginning, was arranged by our parents, we may not have been in love when we wed, but I love My Molly now more than life itself, I would gladly let an arrow pierce my heart to spare her life Do you have a family / who are they: Aye, I do mate, Molly, My Wife of 22 years, and My Son Adam Jr. Favorite Entertainment: Watchin Robin and Little John try to best each other Favorite Subject in School or Chore growing up: Cleaning up around my father whilst he worked, I could sit and watch him for hours, but that was not allowed so I would keep his work area clean so I could see and learn, lookin back now that was my way of showing him I wanted to learn Least Favorite Subject in School or Chore growing up: If it took me away from watching My father, I didn't like it, He used to have me deliver bows an arrows to the King's Guard, I hated that, they always poked fun at me, harmless fun but it still hurt my feelings Favorite Sport: Archery of Course, my that was a silly question to ask of a Fletcher Most Humiliating Moment: well there's two actually, When I chose to follow Robin, I saw what it did to Molly to be taken from her home, her friends, to be drivin like dogs into the forest, she has never once to this day complained, but for me, to have to do this to the woman i swore to cherish and protect, I suppose most of My humility is self inflicted in that respect, it has bothered her for years that she was not able to carry a child to term, she thinks I know not how she feels, but she mumbles in her sleep at times, we are not John and Fanny, Lord knows how they manage, in this situation with all those wee ones, the Lord blessed us with a Son, perhaps he will bless us with another one day, I only wish she would not think any less of herself, for I do not Proudest Moment: that would have to be the Birth of My Son Adam Jr, I love My son, and He makes me Prouder of him each day, but my pride on that day was more for Molly than him, it was my hope that his birth would dissipate her depression, she knew not that I was aware of her feelings, My Pride has always been based in and risin from my family Craziest Person or silliest you know: I would have to say Robin is the craziest, that man once stole the Sheriff's horse just to teach him a lesson, if that's not crazy I don't know what is What do you look for in the opposite sex: I don't look any farther than My Molly In our Hierarchical Society everybody has somebody "over" them, Who is your immediate "overlord" Robin Hood And how do you feel about that person: I love him like a brother, he has been the only man brave enough to stand up against the Sheriff, he has my friendship, and my loyaltyFavorite Sport to watch: Still Archery Do you remember your first kiss: Aye , I do Mate, My weddin day, Molly was a sight to behold, that first kiss awakened somthin in me i did not know was there, could barly fletch a single arrow for a week Do you keep in touch with your childhood friends: didn't have much time for friends growin up, but the ones I did have are here with me in the Sherwood, so I suppose the answer is yes Where is your favorite "Vacation" spot: There's a tree at the edge of the Sherwood that is very tall, I can climb up most of the way to the top, there is a sturdy cross branch where I can sit and see all of Canterbury, but I've told you of this before Have you ever been overseas: No, nor have I ever had the desire to, there is enough to deal with right here, why go overseas to add to it? Do you have Dirt/Mud floors or Stone: Dirt floors, we have a less than modest hut in the Sherwood What is your bed made of: well if you ask Molly she will tell you Moss, but she is still a bit bitter about being here, and therefore a tad dramatic we have a bed of sewn deerskin, stuffed with straw, tis not the most comfortable, tis not the least either How many people sleep in your bed: Two, if that is any of your concern, Molly and Myself, although on occasion, one of John and Fannie's wee one's will come in to escape a storm, usually when I'm out late 10 Things Everybody Should Know About Me
