Does no one else notice how alike these two really are?

• Both wanted a summer romance, no matter what they had to do for it.
  
• Both retreat into the safety of their garments of choice when upset.
• Both overreact to rejection.
• Both have been at odds with others over their romances.
• Both tried to control their romances out of desperation and fear of losing them (remember Mabel keeping Sev’ral Times captive in her room?)
• Both have tried to be something they aren’t to impress someone else (Mabel pretending to love sock puppets/turtles/etc., and Robbie trying too hard to be “cool” instead of just being himself).
  
• Both are willing to eat food off of their own clothing.

It’s like Robbie’s just an older, genderswapped Mabel with more angst, and even more eyeliner.
