Summary
“I don’t fuck little boys,” Robert tells him sternly. “If you want this, you need to be a grown man and communicate.”
Flambae bristles and opens his mouth, but Robert talks right over him. “That being said, I realize there’s such a thing as leading by example. So for the next few minutes, I’m going to talk, and you’re going to listen.”
AKA
Robert’s back is feeling much better, and he has plans to take a certain pyrokinetic apart the way he deserves. Unfortunately, he has to impart a little lesson about communication first.

EDIT: Remind me never to try this hard at writing a fanfiction ever again, fuck me. I can't believe I wrote and posted this, as if anyone even gives a fuck, then submitted it to the contest. Imposter syndrome is killing me because I don't have people recognizing this as a notable fic, or even a "waterprism" fic. Maybe because it comes in later? Idk. If you liked this, please leave a comment. Otherwise it doesn't feel worth posting anything.
