Fandom Post Office; Monday [ 08/06 ]

Today's boredom at her post office shift had Setsuna discovering something very important. Not Tiddles hated paper magic birds. Especially when Setsuna could have them take dives at the cat of evil from high above and when Setsuna made them out of junk mailers that went to people addressed as Current Resident and Mailbox Owner.

The Post Office is open.

Watch your head for flying paper magic birds!

"Dear Mr. President, come take a walk with me..." Robin was singing, as he came in with a letter (http://robinthefrog.livejournal.com/3815.html#cutid1).

"Hello, Robin," Setsuna greeted him with a nod, and then, one eye slid shut, moved her hand, posed in a mudra, to send one of the paper birds his way, drifting idly around his head.

Robin watched the paper bird with wonder. "Wooow, how'd you do that?"

Smiling softly, Setsuna moved her hand to lower the bird to the floor and then retracted her hand sharply, letting the magic die down. "Simple paper spell," she explained. "Combination of runes and distribution of chi and energy....Something to help pass the time more than anything. What can I assist you with, Robin?"

Robin bent down to pick up the bird, examining it. "That's really cool." he said. "I'm here to mail a letter." He showed her the envelope, addressed to his uncle in Los Angeles.

"Then you're in the right place," Setsuna said with a small smile, holding out her hand so Robin could give her the letter and she could send it through the sorting machine on its way out.

Robin handed her the envelope. "So how've you been?"

Setsuna took the envelope and slipped it into the Machine and patted it lightly as it slowly went to work. "I've been well, thank you. Yourself?"

"Really good. I got into the play, and I've been protesting every evening at Caritas. Er, I mean performing."

Setsuna arched an eyebrow, leaning forward a bit on the counter to converse better with the much shorter frog. "Protesting?"

To make it easier, Robin hopped up on the counter. "Yes. I've been singing protest songs at Caritas for my Scouting homework, to encourage people to stand up for their rights. Because Miss Umbrage wants to kick me out of school for being a frog."

Setsuna frowned. Deeply. "The temporary principal, right? She wants to kick you out for being a frog? Seriously?" If this Umbridge had a problem with Robin being a frog, what would her views on what Setsuna was be?

"That's what she said." he nodded. "So, protesting."

"But...why? The expelling you for being a frog thing, not the protesting. The protesting I can understand..."

"I don't know, I don't understand it myself."

"You mean she didn't even provide a reason? Just...you're a frog, the end? Forget the fact that you're a fully capable and sentient, intelligent, talented individual?"

"She said amphibians didn't belong in school, and that as headmaster she had the power to dismiss students who don't meet her standards. And that Frogs don't."

"That's the biggest load of rubbish I think I've ever heard," Setsuna said, testily, crossing her arms over her chest. "You're still here, though, at least...."

"Yeah I think maybe she realized she couldn't legally kick me out due to my species. I don't intend to give her any other excuses."

Even when one accidentally loses control and hits her, she doesn't seem to mind the birds very much.

Setsuna swears she saw one eat a bird....

*clings to day off*

*tries not to think of needing to be up by five am tomorrow*
