Robin sighed. He had been standing outside the door to Starfire's makeshift room for five minutes, holding two sandwiches in one hand and his bottle of mustard in the other. He wrinkled his nose. He always hated the smell of mustard, or how it tasted. He had one of the sandwiches made with everything Starfire liked, so he hoped she still liked everything. He took a deep breath before unlocking the door and walking in.

Starfire was still in her spot sleeping. She didn't move, even when Robin sat crisscross right in front of her. Now was a real problem for Robin. He was taught never to do such a stupid thing. He knew everyone would tell him how stupid he is if anything were to go wrong. Beastboy didn't seem interested when he brought the sandwiches to him. He probably thought the sandwiches were for him, and he just wanted extra mustard.

Starfire felt someone extremely close to her and could smell food. She opened her eyes to see that the boy, Robin, was sitting right across from her with a smile on his face. Her first instinct was to strangle him, but then she saw what was in his hands: food. She was starving. She looked up at his face for any sign of trickery, and, seeing none, grabbed the sandwich that Robin had been holding out for her.

She waited, letting him take a bite of his first. She had never seen food anything like the thing she held. It smelt funny, and there were strange colors and shapes hanging out of the two pieces of what Slade had called bread. Robin kept his smile and understood. He took a bite of his sandwich and chewed it slowly, hoping Starfire would do the same before she thought it was a better idea to strangle him.

When she still didn't look convinced, Robin tore a piece off the edge of Starfire's sandwich and popped it into his mouth before he could see what was in it. He never liked eating what she did, and one of the reasons was because he had no clue what she put in her food. He had Beastboy make it this time, so he was still afraid of what was in it. As soon as he tasted the peanut butter and gummy worms, he was disgusted. He swallowed as quickly as he could and watched Starfire.

Starfire waited a few seconds, but finally hunger got the best of her and she took a bite. She was instantly in heaven. Robin took another bite of his sandwich to avoid looking at hers. He gave her another smile which she instantly returned. When Robin reached out to hand the yellow bottle to her, she took it and opened the lid, looking inside at the equally yellow paste. Robin handed her a straw, and she got the idea. She stuck it in the bottle and took a sip, not guessing for even half a second it could be poison or anything of the sort. She was in heaven again. She was still unsure about Robin, but she was positive that she loved mustard.

Raven had been watching from the observation room and smiled. She had entered only a few minutes ago, and didn't want to know about the dominoes, but sat down to keep an eye on Starfire. Instead, she saw Robin sitting across from her, eating a sandwich like nothing could go wrong in the world. Starfire looked genuinely happy that he was there. She might not even have to restore Starfire's memories if she was happy.

She stood up and walked out of the room, deciding she should know about the dominoes after all.

Robin and Starfire ate in silence, both knowing they couldn't talk to each other in their own language. That was when Starfire had set down her sandwich and grabbed Robin's shoulders pulling him in for a kiss. Robin didn't object at all, knowing she just wanted to learn English, but also because now he was really glad he came. Every part of him now felt like jelly, but it was over too quickly as Starfire pushed him back.

"I believe your expression is thanks?" Starfire asked, her voice the same as when they first met.

"Uh huh," Robin was at least able to say, "Any time."
