Okay, so I totally just had this come up in my mind since I wanted to put a post in. I am watching Inception for probably the 20th time in the past two days (though it usually ended up background noise while I did other things, but it was easy to get back into) so my thoughts instantly went to it. In fact, I just started it over. He is currently climbing the wall back of the side of the building because Mal left the chair. You know, the very beginning. I now have the lines memorized of this movie. Don't even comment on that. I usually watch it all night, except for when a friend stayed the night. If I'm left alone for two weeks at home, I'm going to take advantage of it. Well, I went out with friends a couple times, but whatev. They don't count.
Anyway, so I just got done cleaning for one and a half hours. 2AM-3:30 AM. It was just incredibly fun.
Enjoy!
Beast Boy burst through the door to the ops. room, a grin on his face. "Dudes, check it out!"
Four teens turned their heads to the changeling.
Robin raised an eyebrow behind his mask. "Uh…what exactly is that, Beast Boy?"
Beast Boy scoffed as he held out his invention – it was stationed with plugs coming from a box with a big button in the middle. "A thingy to go into dreams, duhh."
The four just stared at him.
Cyborg cleared his throat. "And…how exactly did you get this idea, and how does it work?"
Beast Boy smiled. "Inception! And it works…like…well, in the movie, of course. Heh." He rubbed the back of his neck.
Starfire got up and went over to inspect the machine. She shook her head. "Beast Boy, there is no way for this contraption to work for the intent of fazing oneself into dreams." She began to point out things that were out of place, causing all the other Titans to stare at her with surprised faces.
Robin was the first to recover, his brow furrowing at his girlfriend. "Uh, Star? How exactly do you know all of this?"
Starfire turned to him and smiled with her hands clasped behind her back. "I have been trained in many different sciences and math on the Warlords of Okaara – a place that I will perhaps explain another time – which allows me to be knowledgeable of such things." She cleared her throat and continued. "This is not saying that I am in the knowing of how to make such a detailed machine, but I may see some basics for such a thing."
All just stared at her. She giggled sheepishly.
Beast Boy cleared his throat. "Uh…I guess I'll just leave then, to go perfect this. Yup." He left the room.
Starfire put a finger to her lip and cocked her head to one side. "Please friends, why do you not speak?"
Cyborg came out of the trance. "Uh, why haven't you ever told us of all this smartness that you have before?"
She shrugged. "I did not deem it necessary. Just like I am able to fly at the speed of light. I do not do it on this planet due to it not being necessary. I do not believe it should be used on criminals; it is harder to control than my regular flight."
The room stayed quiet yet again.
Starfire cleared her throat. "I…shall take my leave now." She giggled sheepishly as she left the room in a hurry.
Once everyone was back into their normal positions, Cyborg turned to Robin.
"Man, you sure know how to pick 'em."
Robin smirked and crossed his arms. "Damn straight."
Yep. Everyone knows that Starfire is ridiculously smart, so I had to put that in there. People will say she's stupid just because of her naivety to Earth's ways. Pshh. She knows hot to fly the speed of light and can answer ridiculous questions, like in that game show. Hardly stupid.
Man, I've been on quite a Starfire streak lately, haha.
