Stress Relief
Beast Boy had a stressful day with the Titans. After being covered with gum during a street fight, he lost quite a few important hairs, and he lost even more when a stupid alien monster singed him. He was feeling pretty unhappy, and his video games weren't helping his feelings. The Titans tried to give him advice on how to feel better, but Beast Boy wanted none of it. He decided to go for a walk, his thoughts a jumbled, frustrated mess.
"I'm tired of all this crime fighting. Why can't these monsters just stay in their own galaxy?" he groaned, kicking a rock on the sidewalk and sending it into a group of metal trashcans, scaring a stray cat or two in the process. "I'm tired of all this missing fur too. It's itchy when it tries to grow back, and I hate...being...itchy," he muttered as he tried to scratch a place on his back where the fur was re-growing itself. He sighed heavily, looking up to the sky with a long face that read 'Why me?'
Above him were a few birds enjoying the slightly windy day. The swooped and dived, riding the currents up and down while crying out with joy.
Beast Boy was transformed into a bird before he realized he was doing it. He flew up there with the happy birds, crying out with joy as he felt the lifting of a new current or a new breeze hit against his feathers. He flew in circles with his new friends, slowing only to eat a passing insect or two. Otherwise he flew fast, fast, fast through the clear sky.
When night fell, he decided to return back to headquarters. His friends eyed him carefully as he settled onto the couch with a huge bowl of snack food and a gaming controller. They assumed he'd worked out his problems, but in case he hadn't, they decided to keep their distance.
Beast Boy didn't mind. His thoughts were on flying again, and he planned to do it every day he could. Nothing had ever made him feel better, and he doubted anything else ever would.
