Living Toys: help a bullied child

Tough one.  I think I see Hobbes inspiring the child to act like a tiger and inspire some confidence. 

Not real clear what Geno brings to this scenario.  Maybe someone will enlighten me on it.

I think this is absolutely what Hobbes does all the time. He’s Calvin’s emotional support, this should be an easy win

Geno could probably accomplish this challenge as well, perhaps slightly better than Hobbes in my opinion anyway.

According to the Super Mario Wiki, "Geno acts as a sage-like figure to Mario and his allies. Consequently, Geno offers the heroes advice about matters the others may not understand.",  which to me suggests that he has a great deal of experience from his time as part of the Star Road, and has learned quite a bit on many different things through out his existence.

In this match specifically however, I like Geno's abilities, because it seems as though he'd have a bit more intuitive wisdom on certain affairs, bullying included, that he could dispense to a child, that Hobbes might not perhaps have or be able to think of at the time, due to the way certain individuals may think.

So, for that I'll give Geno an edge here, as his age and wisdom probably outweigh Hobbes', but ultimately I can see this being tricky for either character in a number of ways.
