Robbie! On Ice

The First Secret Is Out

AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH ok ok so I got a lot of explaining to do with nothing to explain.

Basically the route to me not writing never mind posting anything for literally a year (or real close to it) started when school started winding up during the third quarter and I was struggling with math. I can't do algebra 2 and it was literally making me miserable. Then my PC's battery decided to break and not work so that's now completely dead until I can get it replaced. That happened during the fourth quarter so it's been a while. After that I was working at work (wow!) just about every day outside in lower New York weather so that was exhausting. And now I got back into a Lazy Town obsession so here's this. It took me like two weeks on school time. It's a miracle. I even have like 4 sheets of paper of organized notes just for ice skating. I wouldn't expect this sort of dedication with my larger projects until my PC is fixed. Sorry to my Merlin followers. Please forgive me. I wrote the above after I was completely done so I'm not changing the next paragraph to make sense. Have fun and let me know about what I say in my A/N's and the story itself!!

Honestly guys I just love the idea of Robbie being good at ice skating and I seriously hope I did this justice. I'm not sure if I got all the personalities correct so sorry if the characters personalities are off.

Also, I'm by far no expert on figure skating, or skating in general. I got most of my knowledge from Yuri on Ice!!! and Wiki so I'm sorry if something doesn't realistically work. If you know how to fix it without losing the feeling and emotion behind it let me know and I'll fix it. I've also tried looking up (in the past, like last year) what's been achieved in figure skating today but honestly I don't remember anything. I'm going to try and just keep it to Lazy Town characters so anything that's either done by someone else or not feasible or makes Robbie really really really really talented just pretend it's slightly above average and call it a day. I'm trying to make him impressive so don't call me out on doing just that unless, like I said, it just isn't feasible.

Also, for the first dialogue I decided to just write it like Tumblr posts so just read them with an air of sarcasm. I was in school for some of it so I was bored and it was amusing. I write for y'all as much as myself.

Anyway enjoy. ;)

Winter came early to Lazy Town, leaving the residence with a cold chill in the air and a fresh three inch cover of snow. The fall was cold to begin with, leaving the local pond with a constant thin layer of ice. Early on, when the pond first froze over, Ziggy had tried to walk out onto the pond to test if the ice was strong enough, only to get flooded winter boots and frozen legs for his efforts. Sporticus had given the group of kids a lecture on ice safety, making sure to give them alternative ways of testing the strength of the ice.

Ziggy, after changing his wet clothes and shoes, made sure to pay attention to the lecture. He'd found it particularly unpleasant to feel his toes go completely numb after only a few seconds in the freezing water.

The morning of the first snow, the children had gathered on the newly white sports field to share their excitement of the snow. Stephanie, after realizing that many people's driveways and walkways were now completely hidden, had got the rest of the children to agree to help out the rest of the town and clear the snow. Sporticus, who came down from his airship not long after the kids started their clearing task, decided to take it upon himself to plow the roads.

Meanwhile, Robbie Rotten, the town's local self appointed villain, was peeved at the constant scraping the shovels were causing to reverberate through his underground abode. Wanting to get away from the constant racket Robbie bundled up in his winter clothes and grabs a wool blanket before leaving his home through his hatch.
