X-Men: Evolution fic: "Better Than Lemonade"

This is just a drabble. I've mixed an element or two from the 616's Bobby's background for flavour.

When Bobby showed up at school dressed in green from head to toe (green ball cap, layered green shirts, green cargo shorts, shimmery green tights, even green socks and shoes), he got laughed at, teased, and mocked. (He was given plenty of chances to do impressions of Kermit, and his grandpa's Irish accent, too.)

When he put on fake elf ears and enacted an epic Pan versus Hook battle with Kurt at lunch (using a pirate costume and prop swords raided from the drama club), he got applause, cheers, a few hundred hits on the video Evan posted to YouTube, and detention.

Best of all, when he cheerfully pointed out that the terms of his losing the bet were only that he had to wear the tights to school, with no injunctions whatsoever against sword fights, he got to see Tolensky make a really funny infuriated face.

When life handed Bobby lemons, he put out a hat and did juggling tricks. It was more fun that way.
