Halfway up the stairs from the lobby, Wednesday Afternoon

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

Robin sat to the side, so no one would trip over him, singing.

He was giving serious thought as to whether or not he should stay in Fandom. He'd reached his limit on people not believing he was real. And then the cat food guy had kicked him off the roof. Literally kicked him off. It hadn't hurt, not physically. But there was only so much a frog could take.

"Well to be fair one of them thinks that everything weird about this island is a hallucination. The others, I'm not sure what their deal is."

[heromaniac]

"If they think everything here is an hallucination, they're not going to get very far. Wait until they get turned into an animal or they become a kid or get attacked by Christmas garland or harpies! See how far that sort of thinking gets them!"

"Oh!" Her eyes lit up and she stomped a foot. "I should go and tell them a thing or two! Even if they think something, it's not always okay to say it! And especially if it made you feel bad!"

While he was very touched at her reaction, Robin didn't want to cause any problems. "I don't want you to get into an argument because of me."

[heromaniac]

"But it's not you, Robin!" Momoko pointed out, still fuming. "I mean it is you but it's more! If they're thinking that about you, what about Worf? Or maybe Lion-o, when he comes back? And anyone new who comes next semester! It's just rude to say mean things to someone just because they look different. Their parent must be incredibly ashamed!"

Which was pretty much what her parents had told her when Momoko had complained about the mean kids at her old schools, only not quite as growly. She dropped to sit beside him, arms still crossed. Hopefully no one wanted to use the stairs. "If anyone says anything to me, I'm not gonna hold back, okay?"

She had a very good point. He hadn't realized that other students might be having the same problem. "Okay." he said thoughtfully. "I hadn't though about it like that before."

Momoko nodded, reached into a pocket to pull out a bag of gummy candy, offering him first dibs. "And if they say anything like that again, you have to stand up for yourself! Otherwise you're getting beat up by two, and that's not fair!"

Robin took some candy with thanks. "I actually kinda ranted this last time."

[heromaniac]

Momoko beamed at that, and leaned over to bump him lightly with her shoulder if he didn't move away. "Good, good! If you don't stand up for yourself, then no one else will want to, either!" She popped a candy into her mouth. "And next time you feel sad you can come see me and I'll listen. We can even go for cake! That always makes me feel better!"

"Oh that'd be great! Thanks Momoko."
