Terrors taught in Tamaran

"We don't do this enough!" Beast Boy exclaims, stuffing his face full of Doritos whilst watching Cyborg kick ass on the gaming console. Raven raises her view over her book and raises a sceptical eye at Beast Boy.

"Living the time of your real-life in a pointless virtual reality? Fun." Raven says unenthusiastically. Beast Boy stops chomping on his Doritos for a split second to take offence, but quickly recovers from Raven's commentary. It's not like he isn't used to it.

"Is that your way of saying you want me to pay more attention to you? Because you know , we co-" Raven uses her telepathy to grasp the remaining Doritos in the air, and in one quick movement, shoves them into Beast Boy's mouth. All the Titans laugh, whilst Raven lets a slight smirk free from her lips. Beast Boy makes the most of the attention by managing to chew and swallow them all.

"Leave some Doritos for the rest of us." Robin says as he enters the living room. The laughter stops immediately.

"Dude, what are you wearing?" Beast Boy asks in a half-horrified tone. The Titans glare at Robin, who is unusually dressed in black jeans and a smart black shirt. The only normal features he wears is the mask over his eyes and the hairstyle he's chosen.

"Uh, I think they're called jeans. I can't really kick in them though; they're not exactly efficient." Robin says, a disapproving grimace forming on his face. Cyborg pauses the console and turns to face Robin with a confused look.

"If you hate them, why're you wearing them?" Cyborg questions, as Robin begins to feel slightly self-conscious in this unfamiliar outfit. He swallows.

"Star picked them out for me." He admits, gritting his teeth. The other Titans all look at one another and smile in understanding.

"Ohhhh, Star chose them, did she?" Beast Boy asks, holding back a laugh.

"So, should we expect a wedding invitation soon, or what? There better be cake!" Cyborg laughs, as him and Beast Boy burst into a fit of laughter. Robin notices that Raven doesn't look up from her book, but it's obvious that she's listening to the situation as she hasn't changed the page in the last few minutes. She's too much of a fast reader to stay on the same two pages for that amount of time.

"Where is Star, anyway? We're all chilling out here, I thought she'd be the first to want to hang out with everyone." Cyborg mentions, and all the Titans pause to think for a moment. Then all eyes slowly glide over in Robin's direction.

"She's NOT my girlfriend! I don't know where she is!" Robin exclaims, his face turning red.

"Maybe you should walk in those new jeans she chose for you and go find her." Cyborg hints, raising his eyebrow suggestively. Robin sighs, knowing that he shouldn't have mentioned the jeans at all. It'll be a while until they let this one go. He turns and exits the room without saying a word, leaving the rest of the Titans to go back to whatever they were doing before.

He needs to find Starfire. Something isn't right if she doesn't want to be with the rest of us. Robin thinks to himself. He walks around the Tower, and heads to Starfire's room.

Empty.
