[For Robin: Justine]

[raith_rogue]

Justine had tried to get in to see Robin a few times before, but it wasn't easy. His room was guarded, and she had to find a time when Lara was well and distracted. After a couple of frustrating days (during which she hadn't been able to reach Thomas, which was starting to scare her), she'd finally gotten an opportunity and she seized it.

She pushed the door open, carrying a tray with a bowl of soup and a sandwich on it, and closed it softly behind her, looking over toward the bed though she wasn't sure she wanted to see what was waiting for her. She shifted the tray to one arm and lifted her hand to her lips, cautioning him to be silent as she moved over to where Robin lay.

Robin wasn't sure that she'd really done a whole hell of a lot to help, but he did say, "Thanks," anyway, though it was half-hearted.

"Don't get yourself in trouble," he added. "Thomas wouldn't want you to."

After all, she was his true love or whatever. It wasn't like there'd be a contest if he was choosing between her and Robin.

Justine hadn't come here to help, she'd just wanted to see how Robin was, while she waited and contniued to try to track Thomas down. There was little she could do. "I won't. I have a lot of experience with Lara." For all the good it did her in this situation.

She rose and headed for the door. "Enjoy your soup," she added as she knocked to get the guards to unlock the bolted door.

Robin watched her go, and then after a moment, actually picked up the tray and ate some of the soup.

And thought about how he was going to act when he saw Lara again.
