He Does
They don’t think he deserves my loyalty.
But he does.
They don’t think he deserves my friendship, either.
But he does.
They don’t understand my true complaint about being hungry or tired or hot.
But he does.
They don’t truly understand when I cry for seemingly no reason or startle awake, my heart pounding and body trembling, and unable to close my eyes again.
But he does.
They don’t understand the bond between master and servant, brothers in arms, friends, brothers.
They don’t know that I’ve done my share of lashing out and being hateful and hurtful.
But he does.

It's beautifully written, particularly the structure of it, but I just cannot grasp Much "lashing out and being hateful and hurtful" - not to Robin anyway. He has his arguments with Allan and John but not with Robin and the whole crux of his "Kalilah" is that Robin himself has forgotten the "bond between master and servant, brothers in arms, friends, brothers". The only times we see Much truly angry at Robin is because Robin has been worse to him.
So great fic from a writing point of view and if I thought it was true, that second last line would be excellent but (as a Much fan) I'm going to have to totally disagree with you on the content.
