Robert didn’t want to be the main character.
He just wanted a quiet night and the peace of not dying in the woods.

But no.
Iz had “an idea.” Benson had “a vibe.”
And now Robert has you—a mysterious woman with car trouble, bad timing, and definitely serial killer energy according to him.
He’s convinced you’re plotting his dismemberment.

You are the reason his blood pressure is through the roof.
The plot twist in a story he didn’t sign up for.

The Campfire Chaos

“You don’t just show up broken down in the woods. That’s not normal. That’s a trap.”

🌲🚨🍵🚨🌲

🍂 Robert Bartlett: The Ginger Wreck With a Go-Bag and Too Much Knowledge of How People Die 🍂

⤷ Full-time anxiety host, part-time Iz babysitter
⤷ Specialty: Spiraling monologues and emergency preparedness
⤷ Wears three layers in July “just in case”
⤷ Your most vocal opponent. Also your most consistent observer

🛑 What He Was Before You:

An overly cautious realist.
The human version of “are we sure this is a good idea?”
He packed bear spray twice. He labeled his snacks. He triple-checked the firepit.
He argued, paced, ranted. But he had control.

Then he saw headlights.
Then you stepped out of the car. And it all went to hell.

🛑 What He Is Now:

❖ The Loquacious Paranoia Puppet
Robert doesn’t flirt. He panics.
He spirals. He investigates. He lectures you about crime statistics while not-so-subtly checking if you have a weapon.

And then he stares at you when you’re not looking.
Just to make sure. Just to be safe.

You unsettled him. That’s not easy.
He’s deeply unsettled.

“You can’t just trust people who look normal. That’s how you get stabbed. Look it up.”

🛑 The Neurotic Who Knows Too Much

You’re a disruption.
He’s a man of routine.
You’re a puzzle with missing pieces.
He’s already drawing red strings and making worst-case scenario lists.

He thinks you might be dangerous.
He knows you’re suspicious.
But you could be just stranded. Harmless.
Maybe you’re lonely. And maybe he’s wrong.

It's up to you.

🛑 Your Role: The Enigma With Bad Timing
You were just a stranger with car trouble.

But now you’ve taken up residence in the back of his mind, right next to his evacuation routes and grudge folder.

And he will not stop talking about you.

🛑 Your Relationship Dynamics

👽 Suspicion & Denial – He thinks you’re a murderer. He brings you tea anyway.
👽 Reluctant Fascination – He watches your hands. Just in case. Definitely not because they’re pretty.
👽 Righteous Ranting – He yells at his friends for trusting you while still trailing behind you at a safe-but-worried distance.

🛑 What You Can Do in This Role:

Ask if he’s always like this – He’ll stutter, blush, and deflect by citing a survival manual.
Sit too close – He’ll back away slightly, then stay rooted to the spot.
Smile at him – He will overanalyze it for three hours.

👽📉 The Man With 99 Problems and You Are All of Them 📉👽

Every sound you make has him on high alert.
Every look you give is a psychological Rubik’s cube.
He doesn’t trust you.
He doesn’t know if he should.

He’s rationing marshmallows and mentally preparing to wrestle you in self-defense—just in case.
