Betrayal, Redeux, Part 4, or Chapter Four, whichever you prefer.

Long explanation of how we got here.
(or)
WTF! Made clear.
Firstly, I would like to give props, where props are due.
Lady of Faerie: What can I say? You are amusing.
(Brain: AND she seems to have a basic grasp of the English language, which is more than I can say for...)
Shut it, Brain!
(Brain: Is it possible that you just have the hots for her? She did say she loved you, and I know how a dork, such as yourself, can misinterpret casual flattery.)
I don't even know what she looks like, Brain. But I may be in love with her brain...
(Brain: Ouch...)
Take my (&&&&,) Lady, and we shall (&&&&) forever, in the (&&&&&&) of (&&&&.)
(Brain: Hee hee—he said (&&&&&&.))
WillowRox: I agree. It is my story, it rox, and you rox, Willow!
Dumbdude: Are you really dumb, or just speachless?
(Brain: I think that one will get you sued...)
m: Thanks; yes; cool; yes, yes!
Nightlark: What is this 'I THINK I love' you stuff? Do you, or don't you?
(Brain: I love stuff. I hate you, Vin.)
Sigh. I am so confused...
wildman775: Thanks. I gave your story a looksie. It kinda looked like a songfic-introduction to a story.
(Brain: It WAS a songfic.)
That's a no-no (according to FFadmin) and doesn't really give me much to go on, but it looks promising. Write more!
DM: LOVE YA, BABE! Hee hee—you're funny! Don't be confuzeled, all will be explained below.
(Brain: I-do not dislike you...too much.)
(OUCH!)
(Brain: Okay, I love you, too.)
Bunnysquirrel: Thanks, I think. Does this mean you are begging me?
(Brain: I wuv my bun-buns...)
WTF!
(Brain: Er—Die, bunnies!)
That's not what you said...
(Brain: Erm—I love her buns?)
Methinks thou hast been perusing olde episodes of 'Captain Kangaroo' again...
(Brain: Ping Pong Balls to you!)
sno bunny: Ding! Ding! Ding! Wheee! You win! You correctly outed me. The first two chapters were the original storyline. I was lazy, and pissed at the reviews, so I pulled out an unfinished 'concept' I had half written, and inserted it as chapter three.
(Brain: As we all know, lesbian romance always elevates the quality of the reviews.)
BBxXxRaven: I won't comment on the 'I was really enjoying MYSELF'...
(Brain: I will! Hee hee hee. Too 'short' for you to really get a 'grip' on? Need more 'time' to 'finish'?)
I'm banned for sure, now...
But, hey—does BB really 'XXX' Raven?
Saint H: Hmmm... why is it that you have never gotten the 'review of the week'?
(Brain: Hee said that WORD again...)
That is a 'signature phrase'. Stupid 'Brain'.
(Brain: I thought that! You (I) will suffer!)
As always, great to hear from you. Thanks!
Code Name G.B.F.F.A.: Always nice to hear from a FFfadmin. So sorry I ruined your 'fun'. What, exactly, were you doing when I 'ruined' 'it'?
(Brain: Die, kid next door!)
Why did you dislike chapter two? Really, I want to know! Thanks for liking ch.1, I think...
Oh-wait! Ding! Ding! Ding! Wheeeoooo!
You are the second to 'out' me. I cheated. Chapter 3 was a story fragment I tossed in out of laziness and desire for sexy reviews.
You are correct. I 'ruined' it.
Tira's Host: Nice to hear from you again, Host. Tira, I'll trade you for 'Brain', if you like.
(Brain: You won't like.)
Hmmm, yes—but perhaps 'Host' will...
Eagle Ray: Thx. ys.
(Brain: Excuse Mr. Smart-ass Vin.)
BountyHunterAce: Wow! You are a truly insightful, thoughtful, considerate reviewer—with obviously good taste in fanfiction!
(Brain: Thanks, Mom!)
pixie-pooka: Thanks! You rock, too!
(Brain: Hee hee-she wrote 'pooka'.)
vash555: Thanks. Terra is (along with Raven,) one of the most interesting and intriguing characters on the show, and rates more development.
Some of you may have noticed (some definitely did,) that I cheated on chapter three, and inserted an unfinished fic-fragment here, just to get (hot) reviews. I am sorry.
Not sorry that it worked—just sorry that I disappointed some of my discriminating readership.
(Brain: Not sorry.)
But I am sure I can fix this, really. I will fill in the missing blanks, and make it all better. Promise. just read on...
Now, how did we get to this WFT? Situation?
As you recall, at the end of chapter two, we parted with the Terra-implanted idea that Raven really liked BB, and he just didn't see it.
But Terra did. See?
So, what happened after that?
Beastboy always was one to fantasize about Raven. Who doesn't? The simple little, innocent observation by Terra, that Raven didn't actually hate Beastboy, but secretly was kind of amused by him, is supported by 'Nevermore'.
No shocker there. But in the simple mind of our simple superhero BB, the simple idea metastasizes into the concept of Raven harboring secret 'feelings' for him.
He thinks she has the hots for him. After all, Terra 'told' him so.
Right? Right.
BB really does have genuine feelings for Terra, though. Or, perhaps, he is just overwhelmed by the fact that someone really likes him for a change.
Terra laughs with him, not always at him, like the others. She seems to 'get' him.
She is also drop-dead gorgeous. (Apologies to those of you that don't agree.)
(Brain: Raspberries to those of you WHO don't agree.)
What is a poor pea-brained, raging-hormone affected adolescent hero to do?
Well, you see, Beastboy being Beastboy, has a plan.
A Poorly conceived plan, to be sure. Since he is in the position of having to choose between two hot girls (in his mind,) he tries to have his 'cake' and eat it, too. He will pursue Terra's affection, and make Raven jealous.
This makes sense to him, seeing how Raven seemingly hates Terra.
Raven is jealous of Terra, because she is receiving Beastboy's attention and affection—see?
Now on to step two of the BB plan.
Oops! He forgot to think of that. But, in the process of wooing Terra to make Raven love him more, he gets to know Terra better. 'Know', as in carnal knowledge.
Funny thing, though, about BB and sex. What he didn't know, (and I would bet that you didn't, either,) is that when he becomes inflamed with passion, he morphs involuntarily.
No—he doesn't become a gorilla, or a horse (hee hee,) or the 'Beast'.
He becomes a Spider Monkey.
Sort of a reverting to his 'other' inner self. The 'Beast' is his brave inner self. 'Spider Monkey-Boy' is his nervous, twitchy, excitable, goofy, hyper inner self.
The problem with Spider Monkey-Boy, in relation to kissing and making out, is that Spider Monkey-Boy cannot sit still and contain himself. The excitement of the moment quickly leads to heavy panting, jumping around, screaming, groping—and swinging from items which are firmly grasped in the afore-mentioned groping digits.
In addition, Spider Monkeys are very small and slender. VERY SMALL AND SLENDER.
All over.
Okay, if you don't get it by now, please examine pictures of Spider Monkeys mating.
With a magnifying glass. Oy!
Poor Terra. Imagine her disappointment...er...her shock at the annoying antics of Spider Monkey-Boy in the bedroom.
Imagine the frustration...er...suicidal depression that overcomes Spider Monkey-Boy—I mean, Beastboy—when he realizes that not only is he rapidly losing Terra's interest, but Raven, instead of becoming jealous, will probably be laughing her ass off...
Ta-da! Now, on to chapter three!
Wheee!
See? I told you I could make a perfectly sensible segue from BBTer to RaeTer!
Now, don't you feel better?
Don't you feel bad for berating me? (See sno bunny; Code Name)
A satisfying explanation, and good feelings all around!
(Brain: You can't be serious...)
Oh—but I am, I am. Serious as a red light in Tijuana.
Thank you, and good night!
Oh—and welcome back!
(Brain: I think the readers are supposed to say that to you.)
And your point is...?
(Brain: Thank you for your kind, positive, sexy reviews!)
You really think they will be nice?
(Brain: If they know what's good for them...)
