Raven stared at the green teddy bear lying on her bed, and it stared back at her with its two, beady eyes. She wasn't entirely sure just what had possessed her to buy a teddy bear, and dye it green, but here she was, preparing to practice her flirting skills on it. At the very least, she needed practice runs to get used to actually saying this stuff out loud, and there was no way she was going to risk messing up with the actual green teddy bear in her life.

She continued to stare at the bear, desperately searching for a compliment or a bit of innuendo she could use to her advantage. The bear just seemed to judge her harshly for her inability to start up the conversation. Weighing her options, she the most obvious attribute first.

"So, that's a nice color on you." She knew very well that he was a bit insecure about the unusual color of his skin. Raven had to admit that she kind of liked it. It made him unique, but still a bit of a confidence booster from her would definitely go a long way towards making him more comfortable with flirting back with her.

But, what else could she say? She imagined what he would say in response. How he would return the compliment by saying how her hair and eye color matched beautifully, or how her gray skin made her look very exotic somehow. Blushing at her own inner thoughts, Raven continued to work her teddy.

"Just how sensitive are those ears?" She said, doing her best to put on a flirtatious smirk, using her choice of words to leave his imagination running wild. She had recalled that he had told her how 'chicks dig the ears.' It would be a nice call back to that little moment between them. Surely he would appreciate the fact that she did indeed 'dig the ears'.

Now it was time for the big guns in her arsenal. Feeling her confidence surge from what she felt were two successful flirtations, Raven got ready to go in for the seduction. "Are you a beast under the sheets too?" She questioned the teddy bear, feeling the blush build up on her cheeks. She wasn't done yet however, "How about you sink those fangs of yours into my neck?" She asked, displaying her neck out a bit, and flashing the teddy bear a smirk. The teddy bear fell over from its sitting position onto its back. That was surely a sign that she had successfully seduced him. Now it was time for the practical exam.

Raven exited her room, and went down the across from her room where Beast Boy's room was. She gave the door a knock, and waited for him to answer the door. The door opened with its usual slide, and there he stood.

"Hey Rae, remember what you were going to tell me?

"Yes, Beast Boy, sorry I forgot the last two times, that isn't like me."

"It's alright, I forget half of what I say as I'm saying it." He grinned.

"Right, anyway, I was just recently thinking that, um..." She let her eyes wander across his body. It seemed that he had been changing into his pajamas and was currently shirtless. Strange, she didn't notice earlier, but fighting back her blush as best as she could, Raven continued on. "Uh, it's just that… green is a good color..." She trailed off, muttering under her breath.

"What was that?"

"Nothing, sorry, I forgot again, excuse me for now, I need time to remember!" She spoke quickly as she practically ran back into her own room.

In truth, Beast Boy had heard what she said very clearly. As well as all of her own practice flirts this entire evening. For the past two hours his enhanced hearing let him pick up every flirt she directed at her practice teddy, and then he would watch as she desperately tried to say it to him. It was weirdly cute how hard she was trying, even if she was still far from good at flirting with him. Still, he was sure she would be ready eventually. She got further this time than she had the past few times she tried and actually got one of her lines out.
