002, the afternoon of the 18th
[When Robin had first received her wanted poster in the mail, she had been mortified. When she started receiving messages about it from other people, that emotion changed into one of fear, suspicion and paranoia. The first thing she'd done in response was to head down into the prison planet, away from the Moira and the crew she no longer felt safe around.
It had been more than twenty four hours since then, though , and she's since come to terms with the fact that this isn't a permanent solution. She won't be able to stay on the prison planet forever, and even if she could she certainly didn't want to. Besides the obvious fact that it's a prison, things were starting to get strange down there.
It didn't take long to realize that this isn't the sort of problem she's going to be able to run from - not yet, at least. Even if she isn't ready to board the Moira again, she needs to get out ahead of this problem. ]
This is Nico Robin.
I know some of you got my posters in the mail. I was hoping to know, how many?
[ The first step of dealing with a problem is figuring out how much of one she's dealing with, after all. Maybe if it's just one or two people, she can bribe or threaten them into keeping their mouths shut. Maybe, if she's lucky, she can prevent her face from being associated with that name.]

But trust me. There are people on this boat killing each other on the regular and they're still here. Why would you, someone who hasn't harmed anyone on this ship, be treated as any less than them? Look, I just don't want to see you getting hurt trying to get away from people that probably aren't going to hurt you.
[Unless you're targeted by one of the aforementioned murderers.]
☄ PRIVATE
And you'll either turn me over to them or you'll all die.
[Which isn't to say that she cares about most of the crew's well-being. She just understands that their self-preservation is going to win out over their want to help a criminal like her.]
☄ PRIVATE
Okay, if all of that is true, why did you do it?
☄ PRIVATE
I met a man once who could freeze the ocean with a touch. He froze my best friend to death before my eyes.
[And that best friend, in addition to being a literal Giant, was the person who actually destroyed all of those ships and killed those men - all trying to defend Robin.]
You can't even touch someone with powers like that, and he was just a vice-admiral.
[Actually, you technically can, but Robin doesn't know about haki yet.
As for why she did it, well... She answered part of that question already.]
