Note: Sorry that took so long! I had a lot of homework, plus I wanted to make sure this fic was good (in other words, writer's block). Anyway, thank you all for your honest reviews! I have so many! (Probably because of the hurricane's name. I was watching "The Princess Bride" and I thought, "What if a hurricane was named 'Buttercup?'")
As for DarkXeno's comment, yes, these conversations really did take place (except for the Glorglepuff bit).
As for Goatman, THE HECK YOU WON'T READ THE HARRY POTTER BOOKS! I'LL MAKE YOU READ THEM! EVEN IF I HAVE TO GLUE THEM TO YOUR FACE!
Glues Harry Potter book on Goatman's face.
And as for the suggestions I got, well, like I said, most of this story is already planned out. I'll try to consider them, but no promises. Oh yeah, and I don't own The Little Mermaid.
9:18 p.m.
Raven could've slapped Starfire for taking the remote and switching it on a channel featuring "The Little Mermaid." Now Robin and Cyborg wouldn't shut up. . . .
"Look," said Robin, "Mermaids can't breathe oxygen! The nose is just there! The nostrils might even be gills!"
"I still don't think that makes any sense!" said Cyborg. "If the upper body is human, then surely Mermaids have lungs?"
"That doesn't make any sense either!" said Robin. "If she has lungs then where are the gills? Fish have gills in the upper part of their bodies, and Mermaids don't have that part!"
"Well, she could have gills under her ears or something," said Cyborg, "but she does have nostrils, ya know. Therefore, she must have lungs!"
"What would she need lungs for? She lives underwater!" argued Robin.
"I don't know! To stick her head out so she can observe the world above water, I guess," said Cyborg.
"So what!" said Robin. "People go swimming and they don't have gills!"
"Yeah well, they just didn't evolve to have gills yet," said Cyborg.
"Then what makes you think Mermaids are more evolved than humans?" asked Robin.
Cyborg thought for a moment. "Fish have been on this planet for way longer than humans have," he said. "Mermaids could have both gills and lungs. Lungfish do."
"You are forgetting that half of this 'fish' is a primate," said Robin with the air of a Harvard professor.
"And you two are forgetting that Mermaids don't exist," interrupted Raven, eager for them to shut up.
"We know that!" said Robin, while Starfire was having yet another violent vision of a would-be friend exploding out of existence. "We were speaking hypothetically, of course-"
"Hold on, hold on," said Cyborg. "How do we know that Mermaids don't exist? An estimated 90 to 95 percent of the ocean remains unexplored today. No one could dive in real deep 'cause the water pressure would crush them-" he was then crushed by the pressure of the supply of Diet Coke.
Note: And I want to be a marine biologist. . . .shakes head. Anyway,I don't care what anyone thinks; I thought this part was hilarious. FLAMERS WILL BE IGNORED! Also, it might take a while before I update again. So much homework! TTTT Plus, Hurricane Ivan and Jeanne seem to be doing a loop-de-loop back to Florida, AND THERE ARE 3 MORE HURRICANES FORMING!!! Rips hair out.
Next Chapter: More on Robin's obsessive hatred for commercials.
