A/N: Thank you for all the feedback on the last chapter. I realised it was not my best, but I was lazy and impatient and put it up anyway, and well…
In any case, it's been edited and will probably be rewritten again. The criticism was entirely justified, so Red, Guardy and Drew, I really appreciate your contributions.
On a lighter note I was given Teen Titans for Christmas, so it's back to the good stuff. Let's continue with our project.
Moment: Episode 10 (Mad Mod) – Raven captures Robin with her energy.
She did not have a chance to call out.
Raven had only enough time to recognise the signatures in the room, to register the others within, before her hand, and her powers, were flung out with instinctual motion.
And enclosed around Robin.
It is only after the suddenness of the moment that Raven is able to sort through the strange sensation running through her, and she is startled into dawning comprehension.
And perhaps because this is the first time the entire force of Robin's determination, and his conviction, have (however mistakenly) been turned towards her, Raven comes to a realisation.
She has admired and disregarded Robin by turns. She has thought him pretentious. She has thought him respectable.
But now, however briefly, she finds herself wrenched out her looming complacency with the Titans, because really; this is the first time she has ever thought of him as a threat.
A short drabble for a short moment. This has a semi-continuation for when I do Apprentice (I), but for now there is still more Mad Mod to go.
On a side note, has any one else noticed how isolated from the Team Raven still is at this point in the show? The animators have her standing well away from the team during the discussion following this scene, and even have a sort of 'Team shot' without her in it.
Ah, well. At least she has more lines this episode.
Another quick side note: I realise most of you are probably RaeRobbers, but if you're a multishipper like me and you like RaexBB and this style of fiction I would recommend checking out Jack Mirembe's Imprint. It's still new, but has potential.
