Summary: Best suited - and intended - for those familiar with my writing, a series of short paragraphs detailing character traits I couldn't find room for in my stories, along with chapter out-takes and short happenings that weren't big enough for a plot of their own.

DISCLAIMER: I don't own Teen Titans, I'm just a fan. A poor fan. That gets no profit from this. We clear? (nor do I own any other film, comic, animation, game or book mentioned.)

AN: For those who don't read my stuff but decided to check this out anyway, some basic facts. Most of my stories have Jinx and Raven as a couple. MY version of Jinx is Indian, just like she is in the comics. In fact my characters get a lot of influence from their comic-alts.

Thanks to Concolor44 for 'beta-ing' this for me!


1) As a kid, shifting into an animal with a mass larger than himself - and shifting back - was always extremely painful for Beast Boy. Although it got easier with age and practice, larger forms such as his T-Rex, Elephant and Whale still hurt.

2) Shortly after arriving on earth Starfire discovered she had an allergy to carrots. Sometimes, to get out of eating the Tameranean's home-made concoctions, Cyborg will make a carrot cake and try to compromise, "I'll try your food, but only if you try some of my cake." It works for Cyborg almost every time.

3) Despite Raven's love of herbal tea, she can't stand the smell or taste of mitha pan, an Indian treat made from bitter leaf and menthol. Despite Jinx's love for mitha pan, she avoids eating it around Raven unless the empath's done something to piss her off.

4) While Cyborg, Beast Boy, Raven and Starfire have all shared stories and names from their childhoods - including secret identities where applicable - Robin's remains a secret to all but Raven, who saw a banner advertising the 'Flying Greysons' during the short time she spent in her leader's head, and put the two together, quickly learning about the billionaire Bruce Wayne's adoption of the young orphan. Raven's never questioned Robin on it, though, and has no plans to.

5) Contrary to popular belief, Raven doesn't rebuke Beast Boy's offers of tofu and meat substitutes because she disagrees with the vegan lifestyle. Unbeknown to her teammates, despite regularly eating meat now Raven was raised on a strict vegan diet to weaken her demonic half and better control her powers. She only started eating meat after joining the Teen Titans and realising that not only was it normal and not a taste attributed by her demonic side, she'd need that extra strength in order to better protect her new friends. She rebukes Beast Boy because she struggles to understand his need to replace meat, eggs and dairy produce with poor-tasting meat free replicas. That being said, she is known to join her friend for meals at the local vegan restaurant, and will eat something he's cooked "so long as it's not pretending to be meat."

6) Despite being a creation of Melvin's imagination, Bobby - like any super-hero - has his weaknesses. His are trains and meeting new people, both fears Raven suspects Melvin has, but gave her imaginary friend as a way of displacing and overcoming them.

7) While it is commonly regarded that demons are incapable of love, it is an over-sight and misinterpretation of a race built for personal survival above all else. Trigon, begrudgingly, admires Raven for her persistence and ability to avoid him, takes pride in the strength she displayed to defeat him and sees it as a testimony to the strength of his own bloodline; he dotes upon his only daughter in a sea of sons, giving her more leeway and freedom of choice than most of his bloodline in a display of pure favouritism. Raven, in return, cannot deny harbouring the tiniest morsel of respect and a ghost of loyalty towards her father. After all, blood is thicker than water.

8) Melvin, Timmy and Teether insisted Raven take them to see Disney's "Frozen" with the Titans. The empath had never felt so uncomfortable in a cinema before, and for a few weeks afterwards Beast Boy took it upon himself to badly sing 'do you want to build a snowman' every time she declined to join the team for a 'social activity', until Raven threatened him with a shard of dark energy through his chest.

9) Despite how impatient and energetic Kid Flash is during the day, he isn't a morning person and it often takes him an hour after his alarm has gone off to get up.

10) The Teen Titans came across an angel once while chasing down Doctor Light after he had managed to steal an ancient and powerful artefact from the local museum, with plans to use it to power his newest machine. Someone else had reached the villain before they could, and the Titans had found themselves face to face with a man taller than Cyborg with a face that was all smooth lines and harsh angles, his figure imposing enough that the large feathery wings sprouting from his back didn't look stupid. Midway through his speech about how he was going to keep the artefact, and any attempt to stop him would be 'interfering with divine rules and punishable by death' Raven had sneezed, making her friends jump. After gaining looks off her friends she had shrugged and stared blandly at the angel as she droned, "Sorry. I have allergies."

Confused silence had met her claim, until Starfire loudly recalled several instances in which Raven had sneezed due to close proximity with feathers. The divine warrior had left shortly after with the artefact in hand and a disgruntled scowl on his face.


AN: So there's the first few random paragraphs. I'll update every time I've got ten. If you want to know anything (literally, anything) about anyone in the Titans universe, drop it in a review and it'll appear in the next update :)

For those interested in my other stories, I know I haven't updated for a while. Check out my blog (there's a link on my profile page) for regular updates on how my writing's coming along across all stories.

Thanks guys :) Septic Mind out.
