Fan Fiction Rots Your Brain!

The Teen Titans decide to write their own fanfic about each other. They draw names to see who they'll be writing about. Beast Boy draws Raven's name and chaos ensues in earnest! (Parings: Who knows what these kids will come up with!)

It was Robin's favorite part of the day; combat training! He walked into the main room to get the others.

"Okay, Titans, time for…Wha?"

The others were crowded around the monitor.

"What are you all looking at?" Robin asked.

"Fan fiction!" Exclaimed Beast Boy. "Check it out! There's this website where our fans upload stories about us. There're close to 8000 of 'em! We're catching up to X-Men Unlimited!"

"That's X-Men Evolution," corrected Raven dryly. "And they still have over 9000 entries."

"I'm surprised that you're not watching TV or playing videogames, Beast Boy." Said Robin.

"Raven keeps telling me that TV rots my brain. I decided to read fan fiction. There's this cool story where Mumbo turns us into little kids. There's another one that's a Malchior/Rorek/Raven love triangle. Malchior and Rorek are two halves of the same dragon and are competing for Raven's affections!"

Raven blushed. She really liked that story.

"There are tons of pairings, too! Rob/Star, Rob/Rae, Cy/Jink. Cy/Bee, Cy/Soap opera chick. My favorite is BB/Rae. They've got some weird ones too. How about Slade/Rae or Cy/Gizmo."

"Aw crap, Man!" Cyborg slapped his forehead. "You could have kept that one to yourself!"

Beast Boy continued. "We have an interesting fandom. There's this one guy on here who calls himself vinne the geek. He's 46! DUDE! And this virtgrad person is a scientist! She writes these Raven-centered stories with freakishly long chapters!"

Starfire giggled and turned around. "It is truly entertaining, Robin. We should try writing some."

"I don't think so, Starfire," Raven shook her head.

"Actually, Raven, I think it's a great idea." Said Robin.

"WHAT!" Cyborg, Beast Boy and Raven were flabbergasted.

"Are you serious, man?" Cyborg rubbed his head.

"Completely. I think that it would be a good exercise. And it'll be a nice change of pace. Why don't we draw names? Whosever name you pick, that person will be the focus of your story."

"Cool!" Shouted Beast Boy.

Beast Boy looked in the drawers to get a sandwich bag. He tore of pieces of paper and wrote everyone's names on them.

"Alright," he said as he dropped the pieces into the bag and shook it up. "No second chances. If you pick your own name, pick another and put yours back. You first, Raven."

Raven sighed and reached into the bag. She looked at the name for a long time. The others waited.

"Well?" Asked Beast Boy.

"I got Starfire," she said.

"Wonderful, Raven! I cannot wait to see your story. Me next!"

Starfire reached into the bag.

"I have obtained Cyborg!"

"I'll go next," said Beast Boy as he fumbled around in the bag. Come on, Come on, Come on!

Beast Boy closed his eyes then slowly opened an eyelid.

"YES! I got Raven!"

"Alright! My turn!" Cyborg excitedly fumbled in the bag. "I've got…Robin." Cyborg's face fell and his excitement faded.

"That leaves me with Beast Boy," Robin folded his arms. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea after all. He thought.

"Alright Titans. You have your assignments." Said Robin.

"Wait! What genre are we supposed to choose?" Asked Starfire.

"Any you want," said Beast Boy. "There's general, romance, sci-fi, action/adventure, and more! You can even have a secondary genre."

"Now remember. Be courteous to your teammates. Don't go higher than a PG rating and keep it under 1000 words," Robin warned.

"Yes, mother," smirked Cyborg.

"This is going to be so cool!" Squealed Beast Boy. "I think I'll make mine a Horror/Romance with a Terra/Raven/Beast Boy love triangle!"

Raven's body resonated with dark energy and her eyes were glowing white.

"Oooor not," Beast Boy sulked.

"Okay, let's write! But before we do," said Robin, "we still have three hours of combat training."

The other Titans groaned as they begrudgingly followed Robin to the training room.

Next up! I need to give these guys pen names. Any suggestions? Here's a run down of what their stories will be like:

Raven: Poetry

Starfire: Romance

Cyborg: Angst

Robin: Action/Adventure

Beast Boy: Now that's a secret!
