“So, what’s been going on, sis?” Cricket asked Flutterwings as they trotted through the Hive side-by-side.
“A lot of things, really. One thing I’ve been dealing with, however, is that stupid stereotype.”
“What are you talking about? Which stereotype?”
“That stereotype that says nymphs like me are weak and defenseless and that ‘I let others bully me’. What, is it because I’m the youngest, or is it because I’m a girl? Both perhaps? I dunno.”
“Yeesh. Well, whoever said that—”
The two of them were suddenly shoved to the ground by a random changeling, who suddenly grabbed Cricket and pulled him up to glare at him.
“About time I finally found the bug-eating creep!”
“‘B-Bug eating creep’?! I-I don’t—”
The changeling lifted his fisted hoof. “Shut it, cockroach! This’ll teach you to—OOF!” he grunted as a large rock hit him on the back of the head, knocking him to the ground.
Flutterwings breathed heavily after hurling the stone, then she looked at her brother’s shocked expression. “Sorry, were you saying something, Cricket?”
“Uh... I’ll tell you later.”
