Disclaimer: Don't own Teen Titans
A/N: I think I should admit right now that I actually had most of this written when I started posting LL. I put off posting these chapters because I wanted to make it better before I posted it...
I think that's an easy trap to fall into, neh, LovelyWhiteViolets?
The First Letter
Raven—
You should have mentioned sooner that Star and I are putting a strain on your powers. You above all people should know that I'd never let a personal matter hurt the team. You're right, of course, and you're perfectly right in bringing this to my attention. It's ridiculous to let my own fears keep Star and I apart.
So, with that in mind, do you have any advice about how I should go about this? I apologize for dragging you even further into this mess, but Starfire is usually oblivious to my advances, whether it's asking her out or trying to compliment her.
If I say anything about her appearance or personality, she immediately assumes I'm pointing out an abnormality, no matter how often I reassure her that it's not. If I say she's very pretty, then she assumes that 'human females are not meant to appear this way.' She must think that I only want a typical human female, but I don't know how to convince her otherwise.
And, I hate to ask about this, but have you learned anything from Starfire about Tamaranian customs? I think she might understand what I mean if I'm able to translate it into her own culture.
Of course, I'm not asking as your leader or even as a fellow member of the Teen Titans. Just as the boy who happens to have fallen for your friend. Don't tell me any more than what you feel comfortable with. I'd never ask you to compromise your loyalty to Starfire for me.
Once again, I'm sorry if any of this crosses the line,
--Robin
