Genre: Humor, General

Comments: This follows the Cartoon!Teen Titans timeline so all relationships are platonic and there isn't really anything set. There are slight nuances- most likely Raven/Robin because I'm an avid fan. I don't own this series- DC and the dudes over at CN do. Please enjoy!

His leg propped up on the chair, he watched as Raven took off the bandage that covered it, wincing every time she had to lift the foot up. He was already sick of the sand, which was in every orifice of his body. Somehow, it had also gotten under his skin-tight suit making him squirm every so often, uncomfortably.

"So…what happened?" Robin asked, hoping to get an answer as to why they needed to add a punching bag to their insanely long list of expenses.

A shrug was all he got before she whipped the bandage off and threw it on top of the table.

"Hey, could you be a little more gentle?" He pleaded, his foot throbbing wildly as she clasped it with both hands.

"Just be quiet," She finally responded, a black glow emitting from her hands as the pain in his throbbing foot subsided. "Better?" She asked, getting up and dusting her knees off.

Robin nodded as he wiggled his toes for effect. "No matter how many times I've been healed by you Raven, I'm always constantly amazed,"

"I live to amuse you," She dryly responded before starting towards the door.

"That's not what I meant," Robin softly murmured, watching her paused form.

"Just be careful. I might not be so gracious next time," A little lilt in her otherwise monotone speech pattern indicated the latter statement was in jest.

He grinned before shoving his boot back on, "Thanks, on both accounts,"

"Don't mention it,"

"I try not to," He snarked, still grinning as he stood up. (After all, it was hard to live with Raven and not pick up on her mannerisms.)

The corners of Raven's mouth lifted slightly as she continued her way towards her room.


"Where's Boy Wonder?" Cyborg asked, flexing his hand to test the repairs out.

"In the bathroom," Raven answered, taking her seat at the dinner table while helping herself to some of the dishes Beast Boy had cooked up.

A mischievous look in his eyes, Beast Boy opened his mouth to say something (probably lewd, Cyborg figured as he narrowed his eyes at the green man) before Raven stuck a spoonful of Starfire's special dinner dish into the his wide trap. It wasn't long before he too, sprinted towards the nearest porcelain bowl.

"Starfire made Robin, Klorpgraf, the dish of healing," She answered, in her usual toneless voice.

"Ah…the usual. She didn't get the memo did she?"

"That I had healed him? No,"

"…Did you even tell her?"

Raven spooned some tofu into her mouth, chewing thoughtfully. Gulping, she reached for her glass of water, shrugging her shoulders at Cyborg, "Can't say I did,"

"Did you even try?"

Another shrug.

Cyborg sighed. And people thought Raven didn't have a personality…
