As Raven sat under the large Oak Tree in the park, she held her book in her hands, slightly under her eyes. However, her eyes were focused on the game of frisbee occurring in front of her. On a normal picnic day, Raven would read her book and thoroughly enjoy it, too. That is, until Beast Boy pestered her enough to put it down and join their childish antics. But now, as she sat under her Oak Tree, Raven didn't bother to read her book. Instead she picked. She picked at the grass, picked at the ends of her pages and picked at the lining of her cape. But, whatever she did, it did not help her get rid of the absolute boredom lingering over her shoulders.
Raven frowned from behind her book and watched Starfire as she lunged forward, grabbing the frisbee out of the air. The purple frisbee went flying, being caught by a metallic hand, then tossed into a gloved, green hand, then tossed into the mouth of a slobbery, green dog.
The agitation grew and Raven sighed, dropping the book on the ground. She crossed her arms childishly and narrowed her eyes. Grabbing a few pebbles, Raven tossed them around, attempting to earn some attention from the green freakazoid. She suddenly stopped, thinking to herself, "What am I doing? I'm getting a free week to myself and I'm wasting it by acting like a kid." Raven suddenly heard a squeaking beside her.
Turning her head, she noticed a squirrel picking at the ground. "What do you think is wrong with me?" Raven watched the squirrel. "I mean, I should enjoy this, right? Right," she ended with a curt nod. Raven sat back, lifting her book and attempting to read the first sentence.
The first step to creating an altar for this type-
"Beast Boy, not so fast!" Robin's voice interrupted Raven's train of thought. Whatever happened resulted in an explosion of laughter. Slamming her book down, Raven watched Beast Boy stand from the ground and brush himself off using his lean, muscular ar-
Whaaaaat the hell was that? Raven shook her head and pinched her arm. "I'm going crazy," she muttered. No, but seriously. When did Beast Boy's body become so... Nonprepubescent?
So, the rest of the day went by and the Titans finally made it back to the tower. The next morning, while the Titans scattered to their own activities, Raven walked through the hallway. "There's got to be something I can do to get back my attention... If someone didnt know better, they'd think I was mental for thinking this..." Raven stopped short, placing a hand to her cheek. As soon as the idea came to her, Raven was in front of Starfire's door.
"Yes, how can I be of service, Raven?" Starfire's friendly voice asked.
Raven simply replied, "I need you to do my makeup."
Starfire stood perplexed. Her green eyes went wide and she put out a hand, placing it on Raven's forehead. She muttered, "You do not seem warm..."
"Starfire, I'm serious," Raven said, swatting the hand away. "Help me look... Pretty..."
Starfire shook her head, "Beauty is not something I can give, because you already have it. I can, as earth people say, accentuate the beauty you already posses." Starfire smiled and Raven let the smallest of grins show.
"B, I don't think we're doing this right," Cyborg glowered at the screen, hunched over his controller and pressing numerous buttons.
Next to him, Beast Boy sat in a similar fashion and replied, "No, dude, we're right. Three more miles until the checkpoint. And I just passed you!"
"Gah!" Cyborg exclaimed. But, once they went silent, the metal man stoppright he game.
Beast Boy threw up his controller an screeched, "All my efforts! FOR NOTHING!"
"B," Cyborg said, staring at his friend. Beast Boy stopped yelling and looked at Cyborg with confusion. "Did you see Raven at the park?"
Beast Boy shook his head, "I try not to... Less temptation to bother her."
"Well," Cyborg shrugged, "She was acting weird, man." Beast Boy raised an eyebrow, probing for his friend to explain. "She was throwing rocks, she talked to a squirrel at one point, I swear. She was pouting. I don't know."
Beast Boy twisted his face in thought. "Hmm, that is weird-,"
"Damn..." Cyborg suddenly said. Beast Boy looked to where he stared, his own jaw dropping at the sight before him.
