Dearest Diary,
Oh, the news is most wonderful! My dear friend Cyborg has somehow returned from the dead! Perhaps he was not dead after all, but just missing for so long. Oh, I do not know what to do! I would make the traditional Tamaranean Pudding of Returning from the Dead (made for warriors who return late from battle their loved ones thought had claimed their lives) but I am missing several key ingredients!
Oh, but Cyborg has changed. He seems so much more...Cyborgy, if that is possible. His tech seems much more advanced. At first I was worried it might not be him, but it truely is! And how wonderful, he and friend Jinx are now the couple! Friend Cyborg was most confused, though, when I asked how they can be the item if I cannot purchase them in the RPGs. ...Friend Beast Boy tells me I have much to learn in the art of the joke.
Oh, but I must be going now! We must stock back up on the meat that Cyborg is so fond of, and I am to do the shopping with Boyfriend/Lover Robin!
Journal Entry 37942-6
Cyborg is back. He seems very much alive, and every kind of test e can devise confirms that it is indeed him. I'm a little confused as to where he's been the past couple of months, but those questions can be answered later.
It's a lot to take in, we thought he was gone. It's...wonderful to have him back, that's for sure. And his new tech! Where did he get it? He says he'll answer questions later, but for right now he just wants to be home for a time. I can't blame him. We have a lull in crime, so we can celebrate his return properly.
Report to be concluded upon return from the grocery store. If we're gonna welcome Cyborg back properly, we need to stock up on meat. I'm going to the store with 3 Star 3!
Dear Journal,
DUDE! Cyborg's back! Go Cyborg, you're alive, go Cyborg!
Man, so much has happened since he's been gone! But I've already written about all of that. Anyway, he's back, and I couldn't be happier. Raven seemed a little nervous earlier, but I kinda knew what she was worried about. Life's been rough on her, and since the light in her life is always balanced by darkness, I guess she figured that she'd have to lose to gain. But I'm not ever leaving her side, not now.
Speaking of...I think I'll ask Cyborg for help with that "special project" I've been working on since I came across that old rhyme in Raven's books. Should make things go faster, since he actually knows how to work the machinery.
Dear Diary,
Cyborg is back. It was almost more than I could believe, but my magic confirms it. It's his life force, and his soul. If anything, his life force is even stronger than before.
I admit to some mixed feelings. I'm happy that Cyborg is back, of course, but...when he went missing, our shared pain brought Beast Boy and I together. Now that he's back, will what we have...dissappear?
Beast Boy was just here. He just came in, didn't say anything, but wrapped me in his arms. What he said, I don't want to ever forget. So I'll write it here:
"Raven, I love you. Nothing will ever change that, and I will never leave your side. I promise. Tragedy may have brought us together, but what we discovered between us is REAL, and the cessation of that tragedy won't drive us apart. I will always love you."
He knew. He knew the worries that preyed on my mind, and he came to reassure me. Is it any wonder, when he knows me so well and is so sweet to me, that I love him so much that I will RISK loving? But it makes me feel even guiltier...knowing I am lying to him.
Would he still love me...if he knew I was destinef to bring about the end of the world?
Someday, I will have to tell him. It will be better sooner rather than later...but I couldn't bear it if he hated me. What do I do?
Hard copy memory file 3749-222:
Been back at Titans Tower a few days. Had quite a bit of a shock finding out my friends have all started bopping each other in my absence.
Okay, that was crude even for me. Let's try that again.
Robin and Star have taken to sharing her bedroom at night, and Beast Boy spends his nights with Raven in her room. I'm happy that all of them have found love with each other, and proud that I helped make it happen. Just wish I could have done without, you know, dying.
Also wish BB and Raven weren't so loud most nights. *SHUDDER* There are some things you don't want to hear from your little sister's room in the middle of the night. ...not that she's my real little sister, but that's how I've always seen her. I hope they're using some form of protection.
Jinx and I are trying to arrange a few visits between Towers. It's easier for me to visit her, but she wants to plan a few group dates, since with her over here we'll have three couples. She's talking about making Mammoth her second, so that he'll be in charge while she's visiting over here. I'm a little worried about that. Mammoth's a great guy, and a tough fighter...I just don't know if he has leadership potential.
Okay, BB just handed me some really strange blueprints of a room he'd like my help constructing. I recognize several mystic runes, and I can get my hands on Orihalcum, Mythril, and nth-metal, but why does he want it built like this? And why does he want it so heavily fortified? And what does he mean, it's for Raven?
THis name in the runes, though...I'm gonna have to look it up. I wonder who 'Scath' is?
