Robin sighed, how many times had it been today? Three? Four? Another girl, another confession, another no. He had to get rid of all these girls. But how? Set them up with other boys? No, that would be. . . actually, that would be pretty good. But where to start? How to start? Who to start with? He started with what he knew:
He made a list.
Boys on one side, girls on the other. Than, individual lists for each boy and each girl. All the combinations, the possibilities. What about him? He quickly scribbled a list for himself. Boys and girls alike, ok, maybe not girls, were on his list. That went back to the question: who to start with? Darts? Roulette? Should he just blindfold himself and see who he ran into first? All of those were ridiculous. Maybe he should just go down list. Yeah, that made sense. And the first person on the list:
Chrom.
Who should he put Chrom with? Why make it complicated? He would just ask Chrom. So he did. He was meeting with Chrom later, anyway, why not just bring the list?
So, he did, "Pick one," Robin said, bluntly.
"Your trying to set me up, again?" Chrom chuckled.
Robin smiled, "Yeah, but this time, you get choose your date."
"You realize that anyone I pick might not come, right?"
Robin blinked, "I hadn't. . . that's right. I'm sorry, Chrom, that was insensitive."
"I'm not the one you should apologize too."
Robin sighed, "I guess not. I'm just tired of all these girls asking me out, saying no, rinse and repeat."
"Why don't you choose?" Chrom asked, smiling at his best friend's antics.
"It's hard. There are too many choices, too many combinations."
"Well, here," Chrom took the list and crossed some the names off, "why don't you do that?"
"Ask everyone who they'd prefer and go from there?"
"Yeah, you could take whatever pairs of people would like each other and go from there."
Robin abruptly stood, "That's genius! I'll do it right now. Thanks Chrom!" Robin left.
And that was what he did, it went off without a hitch, until he got to Tharja.
"Oh, you want me to circle my favorites?" Tharja smiled, "why aren't you on this list?"
"I'm gay, Tharja."
"So, I have to become male to recieve your affections?"
"That's not all you have to do," Robin muttered, "can you pick your second choice?"
"You are my only choice."
"Ok, I'm gonna go now," Robin walked away slowly, slightly creeped out.
Tharja chuckled, "Soon, my love, soon."
Robin shivered, every encounter he had with Tharja left him with a paranoia that she would do something. He didn't know what, but he knew she would do something. He put her on high priority, probably making her the first or maybe second person he would setup. He looked at the lists, noting that most people had chosen one, maybe two, people to be with. That made his job easier, if the one they chose had also chose them, which wasn't always the case. Time to try avoiding some awkward love triangles.
Q: I've done it. I've made a parody of another one of my fics, which was kind of a parody itself. Well, this is something. I know, I said I'd wait til I was done with the other one to write this but oh well. I plan on publishing the remaining chapters of female!Robin and chapters of this around the same time. Who knows with I'll actually do that though, haha. . .
