Robin De Noir Character Analysis:

Ok so… anyone else love the fact that when Maria jumps Robin is the first one at the edge of that cliff looking absolutely terrified at the fact that he couldn’t protect her.

Like if that’s not true love in the way he looks absolutely terrified at the thought of losing her then I don’t know what is. Not to mention the way he is willing though out the whole movie (mainly after she opens his eyes of course, but I also think before that too) to do everything in his power to protect her.

Examples:

1) When she comes to the castle and gets caught he has to be the one holding her. Here he may not even know it himself, but in a way he’s protecting her. And some may say “no your crazy he just wanted to impress is dad,” yes that’s very very true, but at the same time think about it. He knew the other guys he grew up around them he knows what they’re like. So there’s a possibility he was protecting her even then without even realizing it himself. Also how would him just simply holding her there impress his dad? Like there’s a lot of other things he could do instead of just holding her there when the others are perfectly capable of doing it.

2)

Even in this scene he as no clue if what she is saying is true, but he fights to get way so that his dad won’t hurt her, and again people will say “oh he’s just doing that so the valley won’t die,” again while that is true, he is also fighting to protect her.

That’s just two of the many examples I can give of how he’s protecting her even when he doesn’t know he himself is. I could make so so many more cases of why I fully believe that from the beginning he was always somehow protecting her, but I won’t cause we’d be here for days on days.

Like Robin is such a gentle and kind loving guy even though he was brought up to be rough on the outside. I genuinely believe all Robin wants is to be loved by someone especially since he has to work so hard to prove himself to his father.

So when Maria essentially slaps (more like drops him on his head 😂) ex:

Again NOT my gif all credit goes to: @bonniebirddoesgifs

him over the head to get him to drop his pride he slowly falls for her and in doing so he makes a vow then and there to protect her no matter what.

I just love Robins whole story line and character arc. I mean think about it even when she gets away from the dungeons and stands up on the wall before falling down the hill all he wants to do is protect her after he sees her fall.

Like some may protest and say “oh he was just sacred his dad would get mad she got away,” no when I watch the movie and she falls off that wall I see a look of worry that she may be hurt before he realizes oh, ok, she’s good I can make it look like I wasn’t worried.

And that in itself is awesome because FORESHADOWING!!! In my opinion that scene foreshadows the ending because:

1) he’s worried about her in both occasions just the first time around he hides it more then the second. In the second at the ending he just actually makes it known now that he’s genuinely worried for her.

2) she asks him “we’re you worried Robin?” And he scoffs saying “no anyone could have done that,”

THAT’S HIM PLAYING IT OFF AGAIN he may be doing it in a playful way now instead of the “oh I can’t actually show this,” but that’s because now he can show it, before he couldn’t show it.

Anyway all this to say Robin is an excellent and extremely complex character and people don’t really see it and it makes me sad because I absolutely Love very complex characters to death especially Robin.

I am completely stuck on the aesthetic of The Secret of Moonacre, so if ANYONE has book recs, send them my way.

Bonus if it's enemies to lovers.

Because I watched the Secret of Moonacre a few weeks ago and haven’t been able to stop thinking about this man since!!
