A/N: this is a short one, but that's just as well, because it's going to be very hard to read… most of it is one, long rant…

Freestanding, no warnings.

Just Do It

Robin was… somewhat annoyed.

"They are all driving me mad! If they are not complaining about working too hard, they are complaining about me working too hard, like you shouldn't take crime seriously! Yes, I stay up all night sometimes, but that's the only way to get anything done! Work during the day and you have to duck stank-balls, get attacked by some strange Tamaranian dinner-ingredients or generally just have to have your ears plugged due to the noise! Damn, the NOISE! And then BB wants to play videogames, or complain about Cy beating him at them, an if not, it's Cy yelling that BB is cheating. If they are quiet then Star is hanging over my shoulder, asking about everything and trying to get me to go out with her or whatever they do on her planet. I just can't get her to understand that I like guys! I mean, it's not that I mind girls that much, but she is just….. Gah! I want to say annoying, but she's so sweet as well, I mean she doesn't mean any harm! I almost wish she did sometimes… would make her one hell of a lot more interesting if you know what I mean… and don't even start about my 'dark side', okay? Raven, then, well, she doesn't say much, but the way she looks at you! I like her, really I do, but if she's not trying to make me drink tea or meditate, she has that look like she knows exactly what I do in my spare time… yes, I mean you… and okay, 'getting done by', then… sheesh, you really like to mark words… still, at least you aren't nagging me all the time or treating me like a kid, like Batman! He still insists on reports every month! I mean, I've been the leader of the Titans for a few years now; what the hell is he expecting to go wrong? Most criminals in this place are jokes anyway… sometimes when they appear in their stupid little badly fitting costumes I just wanna tell them to try their worst and leave them to it. They wouldn't make it across the street anyway… The only one somewhat interesting is Red X, present company excluded, of course… He's cocky that one… I wonder how the heck he got into our vault? If I find out that you had anything to do with it… well… you won't like it. Still, the whole Red X-thing has Cy wanting to probe me every time he appears, to make sure I'm me… pervert… it really damaged their trust in me, that stunt, and that annoys me too! I mean how childish do you have to be to not realize that sometimes you have to play on the other team to reach your goals! Cyborg even joined the H.I.V.E for a while, and yeah, we all knew about it, but I couldn't let them in on the Red X thing… guess I'm possessive, huh? Well, all the other villains are idiots. Brother Blood can be dangerous… a bit mad, that one, but he moved to Steel City, which is great… should send him a card… All the others though… if my team at least could act like adults part of the day…"

"Good thing you have me, then…"

Robin frowned down on the smirking man.

"Slade… just shut up and suck."

The End.


A/N: yes, I know I've mentioned this before, but I had to use it again… The last line, that is, which is supposed to be a quote from a gay porno, at least that's what a Swedish stand-up comedian claims…

And, no, I don't think Robin got away with that one… but I also think he was too far into his rant to realize what he was saying… ;)

Another shortish drabble is coming up, and yes (again), I AM working on longer ones and on 2061… I have a 5 day holiday now so I hope to be able to update some! I like to prove that I'm still alive… ;)
