Disclaimer: I don't own Teen Titans.

(A/N: Spoiler warning: Set after 'Things Change'. But isn't everything from now on?)

What do you Think?

Raven always liked to read in relative peace and quiet. It was no secret; every Titan had been tutored in the perils of disturbing her, even Beast Boy. Especially Beast Boy. And yet, it was that same green changeling that would continually do just that; disturb her. Annoy her, poke her, yell at her or otherwise break her concentration. And she couldn't help but want to kill him for it. However, it wasn't him that was disturbing her reading time at the moment.

Well, it was, but he wasn't doing it deliberately. Ever since they had returned from fighting the Brotherhood of Evil, Beast Boy had grown increasingly less… frantic. His arguments with Cyborg about tofu or meat still remained, but he wasn't quite as… annoying about it as usual. He almost seemed like he had (God forbid) matured during his time away. And she wasn't the only one who had noticed it.

Cyborg sat down next to her at the dinner table, keeping his eyes on Beast Boy as he spoke, who was quietly playing the Gamestation. Yes, that's right; quietly playing the Gamestation.

"So, what do you think?" he asked, keeping his voice a low whisper. Starfire sat down opposite Cyborg.

"Perhaps he has contracted some kind of deadly disease," she offered, keeping her glittering eyes on the green changeling. The Boy Wonder took a seat next to the Tamaranian.

"I don't think we should be talking about him behind his back," he whispered firmly, prompting Cyborg to roll his eyes. Raven leaned forward to speak.

"Why is everyone whispering?" she whispered loudly.

The other three Titans shot her a glare, which did nothing to dissuade her.

"Why don't you just ask him?" she said, looking back down at her book. Robin shrugged, and was about to get up and walk over when Cyborg but a hand on his shoulder. The half robot Titan shook his head.

"Nuh-uh. Whenever he's like this, it's best to just leave him alone. You try and confront him and he'll just knock you further back."

Robin sat down at the table again. "So then? What should we do?"

"Perhaps I should make him some Toeklogfrognak."

Everyone looked at Starfire. Robin coughed.

"Erm… Starfire… I don't think Beast Boy's a real big fan of Tamaranian food."

"Why? What is wrong with it?"

Cyborg smirked. "Yeah, Robin. What is wrong with it?"

The Boy Wonder glared at him. "I said Beast Boy doesn't like it, not me! I love the stuff!" he said quickly, and Starfire's eyes lit up.

"Excellent! I had no idea you had such fondness for the food from my home planet! I will cook you some Toeklogfrognak immediately! And then perhaps some Glaganhenge…" she said excitedly, trailing off as she went to the kitchen, dragging a doomed Robin with her.

Cyborg looked back at the dark empath. "Well?"

"Well, what?"

"Do you know what's bothering him?"

"Why should anything be bothering him?"

An incredulous look crossed his face. "You're kidding, right? Look at him! He's a husk of his former self!" he said, pointing to the perfectly happy Beast Boy as he played the Gamestation. He had a smile on his face, but the usual frantic movements were gone, as were the imaginative curse words. Cyborg turned back to Raven, shaking his head.

"You see? Tragic."

The empath sighed through her teeth. "Then why don't you go and ask him?"

"Were you listening to what I said to Robin?"

Raven slammed her book shut. "Fine. I'll do it."

Before Cyborg could do anything, Raven had already floated to the sofa. Rather than try to stop her, he leaned forward on his chair and activated his sonic sensors, hoping to catch something of the conversation.

Raven sat down next to Beast Boy, who paused briefly before resuming his game.

"Hey."

Raven looked over at Beast Boy. "Uh… yeah. Hi."

"Cyborg sent you over, huh?"

She cast an impressed gaze over the changeling, who was still looking at the screen in front of him.

"You do have sensitive ears."

"I hear everything," he said in a villainous voice, turning towards her and grinning. The game made some kind of explosion noise, and Beast Boy looked back to the screen.

"Huh?"

Aaand, here it comes. The 'dude! I lost my game!' rant.

But it didn't. Beast Boy remained perfectly calm.

"Ah, no way." He shrugged. "Ah well." He walked over and turned off the Gamestation, and then sat back down next to Raven giving her his full attention as he leant back on the sofa. He let his arms drape over the back of the sofa. "So… what did Cyborg send you over for that he was too chicken to do?"

"I was not being a chicken!" Cyborg exclaimed from the dinner table. Realising he had been found out, Cyborg groaned and slammed his head on the table. "I'm going to my room…" he mumbled disappointedly.

"So?" Beast Boy continued. "What's the problem?"

Raven took her time. "They're worried about you. You seem less… Beast Boy."

"I thought you'd be happy about that."

"I am. They're not."

Beast Boy grinned, though it wasn't the toothy and cocky grin she was used to. It was something different. It actually looked quite charming.

"I've just grown up a bit. No biggie. I'm still me."

"Beast Boy. People don't change overnight."

"Well… sometimes they do, and I have."

A dark blue eyebrow shot up. "Why do I get the feeling you're not being honest?"

The changeling seemed ready with a quick response, but then simply sighed. "Because I'm a terrible liar," he said, the same smile as earlier crossing his lips. Raven allowed a small smile in response.

A loud crashing from behind them interrupted their conversation. They turned to see Starfire smashing some kind of yellow substance with a rolling pin. Robin was sat on one of the stools, wincing as the constant banging continued.

"Star… what are you doing?"

"Good Toeklogfrognak must be tenderised first, Robin!"

"Oh…of course."

Beast Boy smiled and looked back at the empath. "Maybe we should talk about this somewhere else."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As the sun set on the horizon, Raven could have sworn that Beast Boy had sighed. She looked over at him, a quizzical look knotting her brow.

"What?" he said, adjusting himself so he was comfortable on the rocks.

"Did you just sigh?"

"No. Why? Did you?"

"No…"

They were both silent for a moment. The green changeling let out a deep breath.

"This is where I used to come with Terra. That seems like such a long time ago, doesn't it?" he said, his voice almost having a disbelieving tone to it.

Raven nodded. "Is that what's wrong, Beast Boy? Terra?"

"Why would anything be wrong because of Terra?"

"Because… you and her…"

He shrugged. "It's in the past. Things change, y'know?"

"I… guess…" she said, frowning.

"What?"

She was silent for a moment as she thought of the right words. "Beast Boy… do you believe that Terra is alive?"

He didn't respond. He just looked out at the sun as it finally disappeared. He pushed himself to his feet.

"C'mon. Star's probably finished with her Talkygrass… thingy."

She stood and followed him as he walked back to the Tower, eventually standing beside him. She put a hand on his arm as they reached the entrance.

"You never answered my question."

"Because it doesn't need an answer."

He proceeded into the Tower, leaving her outside and looking out into the night sky.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As they sat around the dinner table, Beast Boy started up the conversation.

"So what are you gonna tell 'em?"

Raven took a bite of Starfire's strange yellow food. It was actually quite good.

"What?" she asked, looking over at him out of the corner of her eye.

"When the guys ask you 'What's wrong with Beast Boy?' what are you gonna say?"

Raven shrugged. "They're not going to ask me that question."

"Why's that?"

"Because it doesn't need an answer."

(A/N: I have absolutely no clue what this story is about. I watched 'Things Change', and wanted to write a little one shot about it, and this is what came out. If you understand it, then kudos to you, because I don't.

Anyway, review.)
